i Observation-Disclosures.

The vacant ground in Moscow ought
to be put into shape now for garden
making next spring.
If vacant grounds are more or less
Uttered with tin cans, stones and bot
ties, these should be carted off and
all brush, briars and weeds cut and
removed unless they can be plowed
under Otherwise these unused lots,
especially if clay, are likely to be more
or less acid and foul.
The best treatment to get such land
into shape is to pillow it this fall and
leave it rough without narrowing or
cultivating so the action of freezing and
thawing will break it up and partially
pulverize it. If manure is available
it may be spread and plowed under
so as to decay.
Do not use lime this fall to sweeten
these sour soils because it will only
be wasted. Wait until spring. and
then pillow or spade up the ground again,
