place the land should be broken up
as rule, while it is, producing q
good crop Of hay and not left till the
grass is all run out. This may be
planted to corn, to be succeeded by
some grain crop and stocked down to
grass to run two or three years, to be
again plowed up and the same round
gone over again. We do not wish to
advocate any particular system, but
do urge that farmers make this a
study and adopt some plan, such as
the kind Of soil and the external sur
roundings seems to justify. If afraid

few acres and lay out plans for the
