Rreakiue Heavy Sod,

Very deep blowing is not necessary
or even advisab BILE to rot sod. Three or
four inch furrow turned while moist
In early spring will rot more quickly
and perfectly than the same furrow
turned deeper. But an Iowa farmer
thinks he has found still better way.
That is to plow two furrows, first
throwing the sod to a depth of four
inches, and following in the same fur
row with a stirring plow, which thor
oughly breaks up the soil below the
sod. and then throws five or six inches
of this soil over it. On land thus pre-
pared he got large crop of corn with
out weed, and the next year the fur
row to the entire depth of the soil
and without a trace of sod. In this
case probably the under soil was vege-
table mould and rich, and the season
was also moist one. We have seen
many heavy sods made unproductive
for two or three years by turning up
too much clay subsoil with the sod.
Sometimes, in a dry season, spring
turned sod will be found unrotted at
the bottom of deep furrow, when
clayey subsoil has been thrown over
1t. In such cases no crop could e
grown until the old sod, entirely killed,
though not rotted, was turned to the
surface and exposed to air. 1t then de-
composes very rapidly, but the deep
plowing means g years loss of time.

Growing Potatoes.


A successful potato grower gives his
method of growing potatoes as follows:
Prepare the ground in the fall. Late
in March spread potatoes in a warm
place until well sprouted. When the
ground is sufficiently dry, work it,;
when warm enough make burrows two
and one-half feet apart with horse
hoe. Cut potatoes with one or two eyes
to the piece, drop them sixteen inches
apart, using care to have pieces with
eyes up, spouts being unbroken. Then
kick over a little dirt and strew phos-
phate around the seed, covering with
horse hoe not too deep. When five
or six inches high cultivate, continuing
this every week or SO until the tops
are too large. Corn may be planted De-
tween the rows after the last hoeing.
After potatoes are dug, go ahead with
the cultivation of the corn. The result
will be satisfactory.
