a couple Of days ar time. Such a
condition of oversaturation crowds
out the air, smothers roots and soil
organisms, and is otherwise injuTi-
Gus. Note that emphasis is placed
on the sub-soil and not alone IN
the soil. The big need of the day
is deeper farming Undertakings
is the real essence Of deep farming.
An even dozen Of the more evil
dent effects of good soil drainage
may be summarized as follows:
/. Drainage removes the fres
water and firms the soil so it will
carry the loads incident to travel
and TO farm operations. c. R. Mel
len, owner of the old John Johnston
farm ct Geneva, New York, perhaps
the first farm tile drained in Ameri-
Ca, reports that he was able to hau!
two tons of green peas in a single
load from his field when his neigh
bors, without drains, could not go
on their fields.
2. Drainage permits the develop
ment of the granular or crumb struc-
ture OF the soil and the maintenance
of that good filth essential for plant
growth. 1t is easier to develop as
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1920-09-18

at the boiling point as to change its
temperature from freezing to boil
ing. By removing the excess water
below ground this waste of heat is
largely reduced.
6. Drainage lengthens the sea-
son. Approx -mately tn e m
amount of suns heat falls on each
acre. but the land that is wettes. is
longest in reaching the temperature
needed for plant growth. Ten days
to three weeks is not an uncomnlUn
period to be added to the seasons
by good drainage.
Z. Drainage promotes the useful
bacteria and fungi in the soil and
helps to repress the injurious forms.
These include the forms that change
raw organic mater-manure, roots
and stubble-into useful humus, AMI
also the nitrogen Transforming AID
fixing bacteria.
8. Drainage increases the avail
able supply of plant food in the soil
by reason of improved moisture and
air supplies, higher temperature,
| deeper roofing and more active and
numerous soil organisms.
9. Drainage reduces heavirg.
In a saturated soil the expansion of
water in freezing is the cause of th',
heav.ng. But when part of the water
is removed by drainage the soil is
rendered so porous that the expan-
sion is taken up within the soil mass

Il. Drainage reduces erosion
The Southern farmer has used con
tour and terrace farming in the eff
fort to curb erosion, but he Is com
1 ing to realize that better under
darinage is one of his best aids in
the struggle.
| u. Finally, drainage finds It:
lplace in arid farming, where it might
be least expected, as the complement
of irrigation. It is now being used
to correct the ill effects of oVerirri-
cation, which ruins valuable land by
the rise Of a1kali salts. By permit
