The depth at which land should be plowed depends much upon the eaaaos of the year, the hind of aoO and the physical condition of the subsoil. Fall plowing, except for tall-grcwn 'Tain, should Invariably be deeper ,thna spring plowing, as there Is more in:5 for It to beoome sufficiently set. tied and compacted. Whenever land la plowed Quite deeply, and the climatic conditions do not thoroughly the farrows, it should he thoroughly worked before It is planted. Bccvy aoQs need to be plowed mper than the lighter types of aoils. Such soils usually have Quite compact subsoils, and they are beneC.ed by being brought tc the enriaoe. It Is also a benefit to heavy aofa to bury the vegetable matter at a good depth, aa this win assist la keeping the sub>11 from heoomlwg too compact. Lighter soils are very much the opposite. Their rubeolls are usually not too compact, and It la better to have the vegetable matter mixed with tbr surface sod. Deeu plowing o' soils has a tendency to make them too loose, and care should be taken to thoroughly compact them before they are planted to erotm Flowing land continuously at the ime depth every time has a
