The success of a garden is largely due to the manner in which the soil has been prepared. The soil must be deep, mellow and friable, so that It will be In a crumbly state when plowed or hoed. That is, the minute particles of the soil must be granular, each maintaining Its form and con sistency. When such soil is wet, each portion Is enveloped by a fllm of water which Is retained for some time. The plant food is thus dissolved and this water-laden plant food is taken by the roqts of the plants.
