Where the land wan plowed deep in the full, you will find utmost universally splendid otnnds and ev erything in good shape. "You should plow deep in thc fal) and at any rate before Jan. 1G. ir after then, you take tho risk of a drouth, and If you get it, you IOBO your moisture Deep plowing la absolute ly-correct, but it must be done at the right, time, especially if there ls au apprehension of nanjing drouth. l& Hanger bf Heep Plowing.
