Heat in the soil is the hardest of the three essenâ€" tials to control, It is equally as hard: to understand. â€"For instance, it reâ€" quires about ten times the amount â€"of heat to evaporate moisture from the soil as it does to merely warm it up to the proper temperature. Therefore, to retain moisture in the soil and run off the surplus through an under drainage system of tiling is the only way. to assure yourself of a warm soil. 25.A : i It is the rainfalls of the early Spring that take the frost out of the ground and aid a greatâ€" deal in warmâ€" ingâ€"the soil to a temperatureâ€"of about fiftyâ€"degrees., But after that temâ€" sun plays: & great part for â€"the balâ€" ance of the season.

It is hard to explain and there is little written on soil breathing but there is no quesâ€" tion but what expansion and contracâ€" tion by the heating and cooling of both the moisture and air in the soil have a great part to play with the function of soil breathing. It has been recognized by greenhouse men for years that plants used on benches where the soil‘ is only fix to eight inches deep and the heavy poisonous gases <have a.â€"chance to drain .out through the bottom of the benches, are much superior to the same plants planted on solid benches under simiâ€" tivation â€"hasâ€"swept.the country.â€"by storm: during. the. last. fifteen years through the corn belt.
