TO CONSERVE THE MOISTURE

In this dry climate the cultivation OF
she grain land soon after harvest tends
to conserve the moisture already
stored In the soil and 1t is a custom
We will have to take up more serious
ly than In the past. The furrowed
land Is in good condition to catch and
store the rain and the later cultiva-
ton clears the surface OF weeds and
leaves a mellow soil mulch to con-
serve tho moisture which has been
stored in the subsoil. The early and

BY practicing this method the farm
er may cultivate a larger area early
in the season when the soil Is in good
condition, whereas II II Is necessary
to plow the whole field. some OF the
land may become too dry to plow

In fact the larger part OF the seed
bed area has not been loosened deep

TEN Of culture the purpose Is to keep
a mellow soil mulch on the surface OF
the land all OF the time. not only dur.
ing the growth OF the crop. but also
in the interval between harvest and
seeding time. Thus. after the crop Is
planted, the land Is kept cultivated
