. GOOD SEED BED AND CULTIVATION
The conservation of soil moisture is the
most important reason for cultivating crops.
The two other principal things accom-
plished by cultivation are the killing of
weeds, which draw moisture and plant food
from the crops, and the aeration of the
soil.
Too much stress cannot be laid on the
preparation OF good seed bed. A seed

1t is essential for the proper germina ton
and growth of young plants.
The soil must be friable and free from
clods. A clod can hold no plant food In
solution, the only form in which it is avail
able for the plant. Good soil and fine tilth
insure an excellent root system to plants.
Upon the fine, hairy. fbrous feeding roots,
which are possible only in well-tlled soil,
