right A general rule for covering seeds
is twice or three times their diametcrs.
If the soil is moist, seeds planted to thas
depth will get the warm rays of the sum-
come up sooner and stronger than when
planted deep. 1t is often the case that
good seed is planted SO deep that the
entire vital energies of the seed are ex-
hausted before the sprout can reach the
surface; or, if it does manage to come
through, it is weak, and makes but q
feeble growth.
AS to planting in drills or hills, both
systems have their advocates, each
claiming that their system will yield the
most products. If the ground is quito
clean, drilling is probably the preferable
way: but if it is full of weeds, then plant
in hills at least, and it may be better to
plant in checks so that the cultivator
can run both ways.
With the ground properly prepared
and free from trash and Jumps, the best
implement to cultivate sorghum with at
first is a smoothing harrow. This can
be used until the plants are four or five
inches high, and, if used frequently Y and
after every rain, it will be found to re-
duce tnc subsequent "cedlng very lnucn.
Start the cultivator as soon aS the har-
row is laid aside, and keep it agoing
until the sorghum is knCe-high, after
which time its growth is so rapid that it
soon shades the ground and keeps the
weeds in check.
The soil best suited to sorghum is q
fertile but sandy loan. not containing
an excess of vegetable matter. and well
drained. C0}mun'S Rurul WORTH.
