THINGS ABOUT
THE FARM

1t makes very little diffcrance
whether a farmer is a dry land ad-
vocate or practices irrigation the
land to be cropped next year
should be plowed deeply this
autumn. No amount Of narrowing
after the spring plowing will
pulvcrize the land as will the win
ter frost. Eearly planting is made
possible with fall blowing. More
moisture is absorbed and retained
and the crop has an earlier and
better start and early grain invcria-
bly, yields the best as it obtains its
growth before fhe summer drouth
comes on. BY plowing in the iall
the work is done and out of the
way and farmer can accomplish
more in a spring planting. AS the
harvest comes on earlier on fall
plowcd land autumn plowing gives
an opportunity to be forehanded
from year to year SO as to keep
ahead with the work-onc OF the
first essentials of success. We
have never known a man in this
country who could do this unless
he plowed in the fall and then it is
always foot race to keep ahead
of the hounds during the growing
season. The scarcity of labor
nowadays makes the fall plowing
all the more imperative and the
early bird will be up and doing
without any prodding. Field and
