AGRICULTURAL NOTES.
One-half to one pound of arid phos
phate to every alxtveu square yards or
soli In addition to manurs Is often ad
visable for the home gardeu.
I Crop yields may Iw Increased suffi
ciently by tile drainage In soils not nat
urally well drained to pity for the rest
of tiling within a abort time, according
to the Ohio experiment station.
Potato seed Is likely to rot before
germinating because of cold wet soil If
planted too early. Usually polatooa
may be planted earliest on the lighter
soils and at the lower elevations.
A common cause of poor results In
vegetable gardening Is too deep plant
ing of the aeeda. Germination will be
much belter In the spring when the
plan of shallow planting la adopted.
