subsoiliDg Clay Soils.

Will it pay to subsoil clay soilsf
Here is what an Ohio farmer says in
reply i'll letter to Prairie Farmer:
If the land is not tile drained, it is
very doubtful whether it viii pay. But
the blowing to insure success should be
done i'll the fall and care should be
taken to do il when the soil is III proper
cOndition-not too wet. If too wet, it
will become puddled and be in a worse
condition that if it had not been sub
soiled This system of blowing, if prop
erly done in the fall and if followed by
a dry cropping season. usually gives
good results, while if followed by a wet
season but little benefit, if any at all,
can be expected from it. With pipe clay
we'll tile drained we should expect good
results. 1t would give the plant roots
more room to feed in soil that had been
influenced by the air on account Of the
subsoil blowing, and then there would
not be the risk of the soil becoming pud-
died or returning to its former condi-
ton, as there would be had it not been
subsoil plowed. AS the matter now
stands each farmer must determine for
himself whether his soil will be bene-
fitted to such as extent as to make it
profitable. 1t is our intention to give it
a trial ON tile drained land having a
hard clay subsoil, with the aim of aid
ing the clover i'll its work at subsoiling.
