Stripes Before winter sets in may be the best time to till your garden soil if it is dry enough, says Duane Hatch, extension horticulturist, Utah State University. Hatch notes that it is easier to work soil that is a little dry than when it is too wet. Too often gardeners rototill their gardens in the spring when soil is too wet, and they end up with hard, cloddy soil. When preparing the soil before winter, you can leave it in a rougher condition. The freezing and thawing action will break down the clods. Then in the early spring, with just a little raking to level the surface, you can have the soil ready to plant early crops such as peas, radishes, lettuce and spinach. By working your soil now, you can loosen areas that may have been compacted by traffic while the soil was wet. TRANSMISSION. INC. SMURFS $2:29 -- Misc. Panels and visa 'i" yd.

"I think we'll have good team speed, shooting, jumping, passing, depth, and also unity," he added. "It'll be a challenge, but we are excited about the coming season." Brighton coach Duke Reid reported that he's also down to his final 15 on the varsity roster.
