n collection OF tools for gardening by
hand.
she told the gardeners 90 break up
lhe soil we'll the first thing That was
done. 4 soil that IS a heavy solid mass
does not allow the moisture 20 nene-
iraie deep. Consequently there is no
deep reserve store OF moisture, and
when dry weather comes. a soil that
is NOT we'll broken will quickly dry out.

bacteria 40 penetrate 20 The roots. With
n small hand plow or cultvator, hoes
