Drainage.

Drainage.
am amused at seeing some farm
ers dam drains and depressions with
the view of avoiding additional water
over their land, as they term it, such
action to my point of view is unwar-
ranted, as it causes more loss in a
than it should. If it were known how
easy it is to do just the reverse, plow
a good sized ditch through the de-
preston, after having removed all OBJ
| tructions. and grade away the plowed
| land to a depth and width sufficient to
remove the water.
If there be pools of water that a
| be better drained, previous to plow1ng,
with noes and other means do so. And
in selecting a dry season, the above
can be generally carried out to a nice
ty. How many neighbor farmers, nay
/ communities, are at difference over
such important matters so easily rec
titled. A good farmer has all the land
he owns, or all the lands entrusted to
him in use and under cultivation.
1t pays no one to buy and pay for
land and leave a certain portion OF 1t
a total loss, principally as this is not
to last forever: some day the happy
thought will dawn upon Mr.. Farmer
that he has made a mistake all this
time, and will place that land under
cultivation after having sustained its
loss many times over it's original cost
1t is not impossible for one familiar
with our soil to take the position tha'
it is self drained and does not require
that attention.
Whist it is truethat water per
| meates our soil easil, it is neverthe
} less necessary to give attention to drail
age in order to obtain the best results
!, Proper drainage not only removes su
4 perf1uous water, but deepens the soil
increasing it's fertility and thereby &C
tivates vegetation: with proper drain
r age the soil absorbes more freely AM
gets warmer much earlier. 1t increase
r both the quality and quantity of tn
crops and again the drained soil with
stands the drouth better, because du

ness and retains it much longer thai
