To Find the Water Level

In Farm and Fireside is the follow
ing advice to the farmer who il
about to plant his corps:
'The water level Is a term used N
speaking about soils. It means the
depth in the ground where the soil Is
saturated with moisture.
ITO find it, simply take a posthoie
digger and dig down until the water.
stands at the bottom of the hole Dc
this in an ordinary season when the
ground has about the average
amount of moisture. For most CROPS
the water level should be about three
feet below the surface, for alfalfa At
least five feet. A water level two or
three feet deep is excellent for the
majority Of farm crops

not satisfied on the farm until re
bought a car last year. Now he Is
the most satisfied boy one ever saw
I'VE paid man good price to
teach him how to run it. and II was
money well spent. He doesn't want
anything better than a spin with the
family, and we feel safe that he uu-
derstands the running OF it. an au-
