FARMERS IN THIS SECTION
 SHOULD FLOW EXTRA DEEP

4 great many Of our farmers have had the good fortune to be able to break some of their land this past fall, while some of it is yet to break, and while others have all to break
 Those who broke their ground know the value of it, and most of them broke it deep. It is not necessary to break deep in the northern states as in the south. In the north where the thermometer gets to zero and be- low the ground freezes from 8 to F inches deep, and deep freezing loosens and pulverizes the soil, and in measure takes the place of deep blowing. In the south We have to break the ground deep or it re- mains compact, and compact soil coil will not hold moisture during the dry season, nor give the other nec-

essary advantages to the growing crops. Deep fall blowing is the best method. Deep winter blowing is the next best, and deep early spring blowing is the next best. Deep blow ing must be inteliegntly done to get good results. In breaking be guided by the cultivation last year
 Plow an inch or an inch and half deeper than last year with safety not more. Next year you can go deeper
 One of the objects of deep breaking i wash so bad, and to furnish seed bed to hold moisture. Soil broken 10 inches deep will be equal to an
 inch of rainfall in case of dry wealth CT. Another advantage is to expose the soil to air and warmth, and pro- duce chemical action, giving life and activity to the little bacteria in the soil and releasing more of the phos- phorus and potash for plant food. 1t saves fertilizer bills. All the eX- tra work in deep breaking and pre- pairing a good seed-bed in advance of planting is saved in the growing of the crop. A deep and well pulver- ized seed-bed helqs to get a good stand of uniformly healthy plants. Too often when the breaking is done it is with a big blow, and then the ground is narrowed with a V-shaped harrow, once or twice. This Zleav- es the ground smooth and apparent 1y in good condition to plant. How ever we must remember that in win- ter and spring breaking the land is more compact, and in blowing the top is turned to the bottom. The ground is full of moisture, and as the top is turned over it breaks in clods, large and small When the harrow is run over it the surface may be pull yerized, but how about the elods that fell in the bottom of the furrow They should be palverized too. Ii they are not there will be spaces between for air and water, and that will interefere. with the seed coming up good. Some will come Up and do well, others will fall down among the elods or put out roots down there, and make weak plants or not come up at all. The best way is 10 run disc over the ground first. and then cross=disc it. Then use the blow and the loose dirt will ill the bot tom of the =farrow After breaking Use the disc again, and if needs be peg tooth Zharrow..

stated that its future was still un-
known, but solution Of this difficult
problem must be found which will rem
der it certain that Belgium will not
