And he hopes to see if d if ferent levels have any effect on how long the infection lasts Findings from studies such as this may offer a new line of attack against virus invaders. Work soil carefully agent says Garden soils may require working on a limited extent to plant some vegetables now but the method selected may cause harm lasting for several years I t ’s caused by the fragile nature of soil says Wilbur W. B u rk h a rt, area extension agent, who cautions against putting mechanical equipment to work on wet garden plots. When plantings of early peas or potatoes must be done now, the spade or shovel is the ideal tool when used to merely turn the soil over in a looseninng process. This method calls for plan ting in the rough without the usual smoothing and raking beforehand. Since moisture loss prevention is not necessary now, the weathering process after planting serves to smooth the soil to compact it around root systems. If working to a fine seed bed before planting were practiced on wet soils, later rains would produce a concrete-like surface detremental to plant growth. The wet clay soils of some areas may be benefitted by early use of the spade when each spadefull is merely turned over and left without further working A single day of drying weather rapidly removes ex cessive water from roughly spaded soils but will have little or no effect upon the water content of soil worked into a sticky mass by use of a| mechanical tiller Burkhart suggests a aimph but effective test for tellii when soil is ready to pre pa for planting with a mechanical tiller.
