The most important item in agrl cultural improvement IS the deep ant i thorough preparation of the soil II l time to become settled by the winter rains; then there should be cultlva tion occasionally with disk or harrow during the winter to give the soil all and prepare it for future rapid pro duction This winter cultivation, ol course, is omitted if there is a winter cover crop.
 The next important item is the use of the section harrow. Harrow lanC just before planting and again imme diately after planting, then after the plants are up, and some farmers con tinue narrowing until the cotton ol corn is six inches high. The harrow is generally run diagonally across the rows.
 The principal things that are ac- eomplshed by narrowing are; < First-The breaking of the crust which is formed by allowing the sol to be undisturbed The crust shuts i out the air fir omthe roots and tends to stunt the young plant. Second Narrowing airs the soll and no soil can prepare plant food and do it's work unless air is admitted
 Third-It breaks the pores of the soil so that it conserves moisture and prevents too rapid evaporation. Fourth-Where the plants are too thick for the final stand as IS the case where a bushel of seed is used to plant an acre, by going across the rows 1t thins the plants to certain extent, not quite enough, but if properly done it reduces the work of chopping about two-thirds.
 Fifth-It prunes the roots of the plants. Under the ordinary method of cultivation the roots of young corn and cotton plants are only pruned on the sides, but this cross-harro"lng makes a complete pruning of the roots and the tendency of complete pruning is to make a lower and thicker plant stem. and throw fruit limbs, in case of cotton, nearer the earth. PosslplE no single suggestion made by us to the southern farmers is more import ant than the use of the section har- row.
 As soon as we dispense with the harrow. then cultivate lengthWlse of the rows, running the implement first time rather deep so as to give side pruning to the roots, also at this time work the middles as deep as conyen- tent. After this first deep cultivation all future cultivation should be very shallow, not more than one and one half inches so as to give the roots as large space for development as pos sible, so as to not cut off the little feeders which come close to the sur face. This shallow cultivation can be done most rapidly by the use of a weeder, but if the farmer has no weed CT a sweep is much better than a sharp-tooth cultivator. Flowing three inches deep and cultiVating about the same depth has been the cause of a loss to southern farmers amounting to billions of dollars. It is unneces-

sary to enter into any discussion on this point because it is so easy for each farmer to test it on a small scale and prove it's value to his own satls- faction. Finally, in the case of cot ton. continue cultivation just as long as possible under boil weevil condi- tjons. It is well to continue the cul- vation until some of the bollS begin to open, and where there are no weevlls it will increase the crop quite little because the plants will continue to put on forms more rapidly under frequent cultivation. Cultivation should be from seven to ten days apart, depend ing upon the weather. l prefer seven days if possible.
 Last year in the states of Louisiana and Mississippi very little was made up to the first of July because there was so much rain that the farmers could not get into their fields to culti- vate their crops, and in boil weevll territory the weevil practically pune tured everything up to that time, but thousands of farmers made a far crop by continuing their cultivation during July and part of August. In some cases they made as high as three-ouarters of a bale to the acre, utterly disproving the statement that we should lay by the crop early in July because the boil weevil will take all the bloom after that time.
 Let it be distinctly understood that late cultivation applies also to corn. We are in too great haste to lay corn by. Cultivation should be continued as late as possible This late cultlva tion will increase the fruitage.
 These plans have been so thorough lv tested under such a variety of con ditions that We unhesitatingly ask for the farmers of the south to give them trial and you will be largely benefited if you adopt them at once.
