 Supervisor Charles A. Hagberg is- sues the following advice on the sub iec+ of watering in rows:
 On some seed jackets holding seeds with very hard jackets you may find the instruction "soak seed for twenty four hours before sowing" The soak ing course hastens germination, be- cause it assures the supply of moisture to the seed. The beginner working On the theory that If a little is good whole lot must be better" proceeds to aprIy this to all seeds and pays the price of 1nisdirected energy. Seed soaking done without regard oexist- ing weather. conditions may start the young roots into false growth reaching out for non existing soil moisture. If warm water is used to soak the seeds and they are then put into a cold uncongenial soil without further ceremony, obviously loss may occur A much better plan is to thoroughly saturate the drill to supply the needed moisture for those seeds that require it, as the youig roots then find the necessary moisture to con tinue their growth and at an even tenn perature.
 During continued dry weather fol low this system when sowing seeds: After making the seed drill, keep f filled with water for several hours. The moisture penetrating into the eartf will encourage the roots downward and the dry soil on top will help con- serve it. a very des' 'rable combination Certain obiectors condemn all prac- tices of this kind on the ground tha' growth is only in proportion to tht natural condition. No doubt al such would like to go back to our frs natural apples or other fruit
