Loss of warer.

When the land is covered with some
kind of crop, to avoid ~nakedness OF the
soil. there is less loss of water, because
much Of it goes down instead of flow
ing away. When the land is covered
with clover there is a saving OF mois-
ture, as the roots of the clover pene-
trate to the subsoil and loosen it. 1t Is
seldom that water stands on a clover
field. BY avoiding the flow Of water
from the surface there is less loss OF
available plant food.
