The prime object in plowinf lorn, enttnn ?n<t ntli"* r<?ps is to induce continued loalth and vigorous development >f the plant. A purely ineidenta bject is to prevent the gerniinaion and growth of gras? and reeds. How the stirring of the uperticial layer of soil induces ontinued growth has been otter liseussed before, vi/ : ( I ) by pernitting the air to enter and cirulate through the soil, and (li) etarding the evaporation of noisture from the soil. Hence, rhen thero are frequent shower? if rain there i? no necessity foi tirring the soil to pr -vent evsp iration, and plowing may well l>? usponded for a time, as, in fact t must be. because we may not tir the soil safelv while it is wet We do not induce fruiting diectly by plowing, but by producng a vigorous development ol dant growth. Thoreloro there omes a time in the growth of a dant like cotton when too Ire [iiont plowing may prove hurtful iv still further encouraging a igorous growth, when instead chat wo want is more rapid fruit go. The happy medium is to in luce a steady, not too rapid rowth of weed, and at the same imo a steady development <>t ruit. Any close observer has loticed that when cotton i:.. - a : i I i lowing mom rapniiy 11 uikh lot bloom most rapidly.
