^ Shall Wo Plotfhfiullow, or Deep. ? ^ Mr. Wm. Dh^s of Toronto. 1 Can., who raised the ''rent wheat 1 A , % | crop this year, waijts my opinion , ? ( about plowing. The reason of his | ^ e calling for this yist now is n let > , ^ ter he has from tlr. 'Win. Retime, r J farm superintendent :. <h>tane| ^ Agl. College. Mr. K. writes in^ regard to preparing ?i? ?ft?i<?!>h?1 1 for wheat,: "Ke-.-p t!?e . matter on the surt'aee in -eord |i anr.e with nature's lev .. First!" A gang plow about l) inches deep; i o then harrow and r.?Il. Ne.\t liar-|i row again and th. ;i cultivate and harrow alternately until \-?mi sow i I the Fall wheat, not later tlr.n the' first, week in {September. Rol'i ahead of the griin drill to coinpactum soil and help eapillarx ' action, hut do not roll af ter s< cd J ing. Last, year, while working i' the ground I loosened the subsoil some (> or 7 inches deep with a .'I : I. horse grubber." Mr. II. repeats ' and emphasizes the point of keepp. ing the vegetable mutter on the surface. I met Mr. Ronnie when ^ at the College, and am not. surprised that his advice -hould he so sound and good. Leave out the, single matter of depth of plowing! awd certainly what lie says i' ^ just about as near right as ur . know now.
