Any one piece of ground that is used i ntly soon b infest ed with weeds. We had one or two striking illus- trations of this the past season. The root crop has been scattered about on several small pieces of ground. Two of these have been under cultivation for several years, and the work of weeding on these two plots has more than twice doubled that on the other 'two plots. Rapid growth of plants is another advantage of sod land. This year our garden was enlarged bo twice its form- er size and the rows of vegetables were planted in a straight-line from the old worn ground into the new sod land.

There are also presented sound suggestions and counsel relative do organized distribu~ tion for local markets, by adopting which farmers can become their own salesmen, bringing their produce di- rect to the comsumer. Unless a but cher's loense has been procured, the carcass must be sold in quarters, but by organising, farmers can afford to got such a license and are thus able to dispdse of their produes in smaller quantities. The method to be pursued is described, and the importance is em- phasized of keeping 'the severed car. cass cool and free from dust and flies,
