Two primary objects are kept In

point Is to keep the upper six Inches
of soil perfectly loose and friable, so
that the moisture from below Is not
drawn upward and lost In evaporation
but does not ascend higher than the
compact subsoil that Is not broken
up by the plow. For t'hl reason the
plowing Is shallow, averaging from
four to six Inches In depth.
When the time for sowing the seed
arrives the land la plowed to a dept'n
of about six inches and the seed la

to the plow, falls on the damp subsoil
