AIR DRAINAGE IS ESSENTIAL
No Farm Crop Can Endure Wet Feet
If Land Is Not Worth Draining
1t Is Not Worth Keeping.

Air drainage is as essential as soil
drainaSe. 1t is not always the high
places that are free from frost. FIRE.
quently there are pockets among the
hills where crops and fruit suffer late
In the spring and early in the fall from
the ravages of the frost despot. On
low lands there also seems to be places
which frost apparently avoids at I'M
seasonable times. These locations have
well-established boundary lines which
are known to people Of the community.
No fruit can endure wet feet. This
principle obtains in all farm crops. II
your ground is not worth tile draining,
1t is not worth keeping, much less es-
tablishing it to fruit.
