There is no more common cause Of short
crops than shallow breaking, and being
creatures Of habit, II We are not care

our ground about the same depth year
after year.
What farmer has not noticed how bis
breaking plough Is inclined to glide out

four or five inches or at the depth he
usually breaks? This refusal Of the
plough to 20 more than 80 deep is more

To remedy this the only alternative is
to set the plough deeper 80 as to 60 oe-

make rapid strides in this line, the best
plan is to use the subsoil plough which
lifts and loosens the subsoil without
bringing 1t to the surface.

A business man suggests that the
placing of house numbers on the
transom of residences would be a
great convenience to the public in To-
eating places after nightfall, as they
could then be seen even from the
sidewalk Under the present con
ditionS it is sometimes quite diff
cul to locate the numbers after dark.
Even transom here and there along
a street with the number displayed
would assist in the search for a
building and prevent anyone from
straying very far from a desired To-
cality This placing Of the numbers
on the transoms is a common prac-
tiCe in most cities.
