' To this ua it may, thore fs no harm In looking at this subjoct from o practicalstnnd- oint. e It 18 no groat tauk to Iny off a fleld into lands of four rods in width, and running in tho direc- tion of tho natural drainage, snd then to back- furrow thoao lands is tho mont conveuient me== nor of plowing them, This loaves o dead-MITOW overy four rods, to factlitato the surfa~trainago.

Thoso who kinve practicod upon this plan have had no difiienlty in putting in their crops of tho small grsms, for no water ‘can stand on tho Janda when than mannged.
