Among the many benefits to be derived from deep . and frequent. cultivation-, and this applies to all classes of soil --is to make the plants, root deeply. But deep cultivation must not be continued after the plants begin to bloom. A.t this time they change their manner of underground growth,. throwing out roots nearer the surface soil. From .this time on stir only the surface soil to a depth of one or two inches, Do this after each rain or watering, being careful to pulverize the surface the next day,., The question of 'watering is a de- batable one and presents another of the many Opportunities afforded by the cultivation of this" plant for the exercise of sound judgment.
