a GOOD TINE TO PLAN YOUR CROPS.
The farmer should devote a

supplements another. A deep

follow the more exhausting crops
like corn, cotton and tobacco.
The land should be gwen a rest
by seeding it down to grass for at
least two out of every five years.
The legumes should be made to
supply humus and nitrogen to
the soil at a minimum cost.
