SUBSOlL NE THOD OF
SUMNER BREAKING

(By J. C. McAmis, Division OF Exten'
sion University of Tennessee.)
II may happen this spring that
great deal of the, land which is tc
be planted in soy beans and COW peas
will become so dry and hard that 1t
will be impossible to turn it with
turn. pillow at the best time. 1t nearly
always does happen that way
II may also happen that some land
now in grain will be sown to grain
again next fall, as is always the case,
bad as the practice may be.
There are many farmers who make
practice of following winter grain
crops with peas or beans. This brings
with it the necessity Of doing great
deal of work in short time when the
weather is hot and the ground usually
hard. It is a difficult task.
A great deal of sod land will be pre-
pared this summer for cover crop, a
winter pasture, or grain crop. Again
the breaking of the land is often done
under difficulties.
Under any of these conditions the
land should never be turned With o
turn plow, provided that the prepare
ton is begun before there is much
| growth of weeds and grass. Instead
| OF turning as usual, break the land
with a subsoiler by blowing twelve to
fifteen inches apart and ten to twelve
| inches deep. The hardness of the land
| will determine how close the pillow
should be used. The soil should break
| entirely across from one furrow to the
| nearest one, moving the entire mass
| of soil from one furrow to the next
The implement must not throw
clods to the surface, but it must breaI
the soil, leaving it almost in place
The Avery Subsoiler, with the mould
board detached, has been used yer!
successfully in this way.
After breaking, disc until the sur
face soil is thoroughly pulverized tt
a depth of, at least five inches. KeeI
the land loose and free from weeds
until the crop is seeded.
The advantages of this method o
breaking land are too numerous U
mention. It may be done when thu
land is too hard for a turn ploow, TIT
land does not dry out as 1t does from
turning. Contact is kept between tn
subsoil and top soil. The vegetable
matter is not destroyed as in summe
| turning. The richest soil is left q
the surface to start the plants OF well
! / Weed seeds are left on the surface
and killed by cultivation. The soi
can be broken great deal deeper AM
more rapidly with less draft, +.
The breaking should always begf'
as soon as the preceding crop is re
moved while the soil is mellow, an
before weed growth begins.

THE FOUNDATION BREEDlRs
STUDS OF pERCHERON HORSES

A very attractive bulletin has just
been published by the Agricultural Di-
vision, Traffic Department. of the N
c. & st. l.. Ry., describing the ami
mails composing the foundation breed
ing studs of Percheron horses recently
established at the West Tennessee Ell,
pertinent Station, at Jackson, Tenn.
The establishment of this breeding
stud was made possible through funds
supplied by the above railroad COM
pany, and is another instance OF the
efforts the railroads and other public
institutions are making toward help
ing the farmer to better agricultural
methods. This fund of $4,000 was
turned over to the Tennessee Expert
ment Station, and has been spent for
the very best Percherons obtainable.
The stud now consists OF five mares,
all bred when purchased, ranging In
age from two to five years, and first
class young stallion.
The purpose of this stud is to sup
ply Percheron stations to the farmers
of the State at a reasonable price. AT
present there are few counties where
the farmers have escaped the purchase
of a company horse of the draft type
and all too frequently these animals
have proven unsatisfactory despite
their high cost. Most company horses
cost $4,000 or more and have little tc
their credit in the way OF breeding
All the stallion colts from this stuC
| will be for sale to the farmers OF tht
State at price not exceeding $o0o
| ANY farmer, or any community o
| farmers. within the State may pur
| chase one of them but they will no
be allowed to sell this stallion, excep
| back through the Experiment Station
for more than the original purchas
price. This provision is made to pre-
vent the stations from being sold out
| side the State. All of the filly colt
are to be kept at the Station to II
crease the number of breeding mare
in the stud. When stallion Is solo
the price received for 1t Will be turne
over to the railroad toward payin
back the original fund.
This is most important step, q
there is such a rapidly growing d.
mand for heavier draft stock on th
farms in the south. Not only viii
assist materially in increasing the siz
OF farm horses, but It also furnishe
| the most economical method OF procu
ing mares suitable for the productio
| OF heavier mules. The first cross OF
Percheron stallion with the ayerae
Tennessee breeding mare Will i
crease the size and weight thirty
forty per cent. This will mean mare
J | weighing 1900 to 1,400 pounds, instea
of 500 to 1000 pounds, with a corr
spending increase in the size OF mule
4 A breeding stud similar to the abo'
is being established at the Expel
, | ment Station at Knoxville throue
7 funds supplied by the Holston Nation
Bank of Knoxville, Tenn, and for Il
same purpose.
