Kill the Early Weeds and Save Trouble.
There are many different kinds of weeds and
some of them start off early in the spring
almost before the frost leaves the ground. 1t
is the early weeds that give the farmer the
most trouble, If the land was plowed last fall.
cross pillow it this spring, and then harrow or
cultivate it as often as can be done until time
to put in the seed. Every time the land is
cultivated more weeds will terminate to be
killed, and the more weeds that can be de-
stroyed before the regular crop starts The fewer
there will be to combat later on.

Some Pointers on Seed Planting AN
authority on this subject says that the depth
of planting seeds should be governed by the
character of the SOIL IF light and dry then the
seeds should be planted deep and covered. so
as to leave the plants when they come up at
least inches below the surrounding level, and
at the first time of hoeiDg the ground should
be leveled and kept level during the season.
Thus the hills are made below ground and the
plants are kept from drying up, If the land
near the surface, not covered very deep, and
at hoeing time slightly hilled.
