DErrH TO PLANT SEED.-The proper

instance, 1t has been shown that peas con.
tinue longer in bearing condition on sandy
soils, when sown at depth Of six
inches than they do when placed near
the surface, and it is said that the Indiana
upon the table lands ofthe Colorado plant
corn 10 or IL inches below the surface
with the best results; but if planted with
only one or two inches of covering. the
crop fails. Seeds also vary in their ab.
