in the caves of France and Great Brit

during the reindeer age. Some OF these
early needles were perforated in the
middle, which was the thickest part.

the gain at - per cent as the result
of this work the soil being dry

1t is important that the operation he
repeated many times, as the results
vary under changing conditions and
circumstances. One OF our expert
ment stations tried cultivating cora

1t was found that the weather was I'm

the soil more compact than before.

1t is well for farmers 10 see what
they are doing. The soil or the clods
should be dry enough to crumble to
powder. instead of being worked into
plastic masses. to bake hard when dry
weather comes. Much depends on tho

chop up and grind up the clods. Giao
harrows, like the spring tooth, tear up
the earth from a greater depth instead
of cutting down, but have less action
on clods. The owner should examine
and decide what kind of an implement
is needed and act accordingly. And if
by few limited and measured expert
ments, he can ascertain what tool, what
treatment. and what condition of the
weather ne should use with the best
results, the information he thus OBJ
