The earlier you can get your winter wheat ground plowed the better. Wheat is a plant that delights in a firm seed bed and that cannot be ob tained if the ground is plowed a few days before seeding. If it is plowed early, however, and is thoroughly disked and harrowed at intervals, it will be comparatively firm, yet loose f enough on top when it is time to sow the wheat. There are practically no diseases to which ducks are subject. They can be sickened and killed through igno rance and carelessness by compelling them to submit to improper food or conditions. Avoid watering the garden if possi- j ble. Use the hos more frequently but if protracted drouth renders the use of hose or watering can a necessity, do the work thoroughly. A little sur face water simply entices the roots upward, where they are more readily affected by dry weather. stock. m otiprginta inspeclito.
