An Bre'r jeremiah he didn't lax that, an
he says, We'll. Bre'r Moses says he, if
yo' knows bout dat. yo' jes tell how tbs

apply fertilizers to the orchard until
you have made the fertility that is al
ready there available by cultivation.
The second reason for tlllage IS TO
conserve moisture and promote deep
roofing. The upper layer Of a cultlvat-
ed soil is dry, and in consequence the
roots will turn downward TO seek
layer In which there is more moisture
At the same time the upward rise OF
water by caplllarity is checked lust at
the dry layer. 50 that little is lost by
evaporation. IL is very important 10
