Snow, its Value to the Farmer.

The farmer rarely ever welcomes
the first snow with any feelings of
pleasure, especially if it comes early in
December, in Quantities sufficient to
convince him that it has come to stay;
yet when it does come at this season
and keeps the ground covered until the
last of March. it may be considered one
OF the most important aids towards
securing large crops next season.
Few who have never given the subject
any attention are aware how many ad-
vantages result from winter covering of
plants, or to what extent the fertilizing
materials are prevented from escaping,
when the earth is covered with snow.
Few materials that are available protect
grass roots so well as a good covering
of snow. When thus covered during
the entire winter, it keeps green and is
in condition to grow as soon as the
snow is melted. When the ground is
covered during the cold weather With
snow foot in depth, the frost is kept
out, and sudden changes of temperature
are prevented, thus protecting the
grass roots. and also the roots of rye.
wheat, and other plants, the roots of
which live over winter. Being pro-
tected from both the sudden changes
and the winter winds. they come out in
the spring in a much better condition
than if exposed without covering all
winter. hs'-
Strawberry vines go through the win
ter much better if kept covered with
snow; in fact, if one could be sure that
they would be kept thus covered during
the entire season of free ling weather,
mulching might be dispensed with. so
far as relates to protection from the
cold weather. If the earth is exposed
during the entire winter to the sweep
ing winds and sudden changes Of
weather it not only INJURIES the roots of
grass and other small plants but it takes
from the exposed portions of the farm
large quantities of materials which are
valuable for plant food. In fact, COW
ering of snow during the entire winter
is almost equal to a covering of hay or
straw in the summer. 1t being free
gift, the farmer should welcome it as he
would welcome any valuable aid to his
prosperity, and although it, may cause
cold feet and hands, the advantages far
outweigh the disadvantages. When the
ground is, covered during the entire
winter the spring usually comes forward
earlier, because there b ing no frost in
the ground, as soon as the snow is
melted the ground is in a condition to
pillow, or to encourage the growth Of
