This Is especially true of fine clay soils
that run together and pack readily.
Deep spring blowing and spring sub.
soiling are likely to result In diminish
ed crops, especially If done after the
spring rains.
For deep, rich soil deep blowing Is
best, provided 1t Is done In the fall
or does not render the soil too loose
and dry. For thin clay soils subsoilina
is better than very deep blowing. The
blowing should not be at the same
depth from year to year. A little sub
soil turned TO the surface occasionally
allows the elements to act upon 1t, lib
Grating plant food, and as 1t becomes
mingled with surface soil and vege'
table growth the soil depth will I've In
creased. 1t is well to pillow little
deeper each year for several success.
sive seasons and then for one season
give blowing at about half the depth
of the deepest blowing. The pillow
should be so adjusted that It Will turn
all the soil and leave the surface
smooth. In every instance spring plow'
ed land should be pulverized the same
day 1t is plowed.
Corn planted early most often gives
the best yield. Corn should, of course
mot be planted In cold or wet ground,
but by good drainage, fall blowing,
etc., every farmer should strive to have
his land In good condition TO plant al
the proper time.
Underground drainage will prove
most profitable in the end in handling

must be avoided SO far as possible.
After the plants have reached height
of two or three feet the soil even In
the middle of the rows should not be
cultivated deeper than four inches, and
usually shallower cultivation will
prove better. For retaining soil mois.
ture a loose soil mulch two or three
inches In thickness is advisable.
Corn should be cultivated often
enough to keep down weeds and to
maintain constantly a loose soil mulch
till the corn has attained its growth
To this end a greater number of cuI-
tivations will be necessary when rains
at intervals of about a week cause the
surface soil to run together and crust
This crust must be broken and the soil
mulch restored or evaporation will soon
rob the soil OF it's moisture.
IT is mistake to think that the
longer the drought the more frequent
should be the civilizations After q
fine mulch OF about three inches IN
depth has been produced its frequent
stirring is not necessary, except In SC
far as 1t is required to keep weeds
from starting. Many crops are cut
short by stopping the cultivation, be
cause the corn is too tall for use OF q
