The first week of the SEP

1t has been a success.
Like a good book or musi-

Why, bless you, no. August

To continue the outflow of

sought and bought, sometimes
from our own stocks, some
times from others, but brought

out thoroughly.

FROM MANY CORRESPONDENTS
WHO IS THE BARD OF TOWER HALL?

I'm receiving letters daily
With this tenor to them all,
"Oh, pray tell us, tell us truly,
Mr. Bard of Tower Hall,
Are you single; or, if married,
Do you lead a wretched life?
Do you write of midnight lectures,
Being lectured by your wife?'
Are you Irish, French or German?
Curiosity assuage

To the question, What's your age?
Are you quartered in an attic,
Do you there have board and bed?
Are you thin like other poets?
Have you raven locks OF red?"

And in head little thick"

be able to secure the necessary supply tc
keep up vigorous growth.
There is another point that should also
be considered, and that is, il the soil is
etirred deep, there must of necessity be
more or less disturbance of the roots.
The roots furnish good per cent. of the
food that enables the plant to grow, and
IL these arc disturbed or broken, there
must Of necessity be lessening in the
supply.
1t Is true that plants, like animals, as
rule, heal all cuts or wounds naturally,
and If in cultivating the roots are cut OF
bruised, the damage will be repaired.
There Is, in addition, an outlay OF
strength TINT is unnecessary, and could
be avoided. Fully Us good growth and
yield can be secured by stirring the soil
deep and thoroughly in blowing, then
working into good tilth and planting
the seed, and then, as far as possible, COM
mencing the cultivation in good season,
so that only the surface is stirred. This
will be sufficient to keep down the weeds,
and this is one principal point In cultiva-
tion. The work, too, can be done easier
and more economically than to stir the
soil deep at every cultivation. There may,
indeed, be times when it is necessary to
stir the soil deep, but 1t is the exception
rather than the rule.
The weekly Union times. [volume] (Union C.H., South Carolina) 1871-1894, 1889-07-12
DEPTH To CULTIVATE.

There is n wide difference of opinion
rs to how deep it is necessary or best to
stir the soil in cultivating the growing g
crops, says a writer in the Prairie Far
mer. There are three items to be secured
at least; the destruction of the weeds,
avoiding the unnecessary robbing of the
soil of available plant food that will be
taken up and used by the weeds; mellow
ing or loosening up the soil 50 that the
roots can penetrate readily; and render
ing available plant that is already in
the soil, but needs the action Of the light
and air to make it available.
If the cultivation is commenced in good
season, the weeds are very easily des-
troyed, without the necessity of disturb
ing the soil more than two or three in
ches. If the soil has been properly
brought into q good tilth, as should be
done before the crop is planted, it should
be sufficiently loose and mellow for the
roots TO penetrate, without the necessity,
after the plants have commenced to grow,
of loosening up so that the roots can per-
meste. To a greater or less extent the
natural course of all manure is down
ward, and, if applied on the surface and
thorough cultivation is given, it will iu-
corporate well with the soil, and the rains
will usually carry the soluble portions
sufficiently deep, so that the roots will
