Now, which would you rather have, the clods on top, where they can be broken up or down in the root zone, where they are fully protected and where they cheat the root growth. Just aa much aa if they were so many atones? The great remedy for this evil la to not allow cattle to graze the stalk fields, but when they are grazed the surface of the aoll should be thoroughly torn up by a cutaway harrow, or repeated disking, before the plow la used, so that the soil that is turned down to make the root sone will be perfectly free from clods. If the careless farmer la satisfied he has a clod reducing machine that will thoroughly reduce any and all surface clods when properly used, he is not so careless a farmer as our neighbors may, in their ignorance, have called him. while, on the other hand, the man who thinks he Is careful, who plows clods down deep Into the soil and leaves them there for a year, is really a very slovenly farmer, and Is yearly cutting off the plant food from the root zone, and It would he better If he never plowed hla land at alL elod-crusbi- ng One To Grow Violets Baceesafnlly. item In the culof violets la ventilation.
