FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Professor Milton Whitney, United
States soil moisture expert says:
wherever drop of rain water flows
off of the plowed field, It is an indica-
ton that the soil is not in proper ply
steal condition. Where this occurs in
dry soil, the main preparation of the
soil should be as deep as possible, SO
that water may be carried down and
thus diminish the rapidity of evapor-
alton and loss from the surface Sub.
soiling will be found invaluable in
opening up the close and compact sub
soil. A farmer can tell whether his
soil needs subsoiiing by noticing wheth-
er any water flows off of the surface of
his plowed field or not"
