HOW DEEP TO FARM.
Conditions Of Soil, Drainage, Etc.
Must Determine the Question.

The depth to which a man plows
his land has a bearing on the success
OF his farming. II is possible to plow
too deep, and it is certainly possible
to plow too shallow. to get the best
results. But someone will ask, what
is the best depth for plowing? That
is an unanswerable question, because
all kinds of conditions exist on farms.
and those conditions are what must
set the depth OF plowlng. The depth
to which TO plow is a problem that
has been considered, with other ques-
tions, and not by itself, by our best
Investigators.
In the Investigations OF the soils OF
southern Illinois, Prof. Hopkins found
sections where the potash had been
very much exhausted in the upper
even inches of soil, so much so that
he crops could not gei enough of that
lement to make the growth they
hould make. The advice of Prof.
Hopkins was 10 pillow little deeper
aud thus get the use of the potassium
below lhe depth Of the old plowings.
Now, here was case where the land
had been farmed for so long a time
.hat the potassium was exhausted in
the soil usually turned up by the plow.
