The Benefits Of Drainage.


The land can be utilized for crops to
the depth that it is drained, but no
deeper. Drainage not only deepens the
soil, but improves its texture and quail
ity. The air will penetrate the soil as
deep as it IS drained and impart to it fer
tillzing qualities; 1t enables us to work
sooner after rains; it makes the ground
much warmer. and does it much sooner
by the warm rains passing through it; it
enables US to get at our work much
earlier in the spring; it starts our crops
two weeks earlier; it prevents crops
from freezing out in winter; it enables
US to get the full benefit of manures that
would be soaked and washed away if not
drained; it improves the quality of hay
and pasture; 1t gets our field in q
cleaner and healthier condition; it pre-
vents surface washing; it maks the sur.
face more friable aud mellow, and easier
to. cultivate; it prevents land from be-
coming sour, by removing all standing
water before it becomes stagnant; it
banishes the chills and fever, and other
forms of malarial diseases.
Tile drainage is much the cheapest
and most eff ctual way of drying up wet
and muddy roads; it will assist in dry
ing up the mud around the farm build
ings; it will change that pale and sickly
hue from your children's complexion to
that of the blooming rose. As more of
the mysteries of vegetable growth are
solved, the more will successful farmers
learn of the great benefit of tile drain
age.-F'arma, FSeld end FIyeside.
