The sooner crops are plowed into the soil and allowed to decay, the sooner will their beneficial influence be felt. The re- frigerant effect of the shade of such crops and the application of irrigation water appear to have a beneficial in- fluence upon the trees. This and the possible infiuence of legumes being associated with non-legumes frequently exerts a marked influence upon the appearance and vigor of trees before an appreciable amount of plant mate- rial has decayed ui)on or within the soil. A splendid example of what can be accomplished by the proper use of cover crops is the orchard owned by F. R. Radford, which is upon a soil very similar to the above experiment. When his orchard began to show signs of distress, some seven or eight years ago, he began immediately to use win- ter cover crops, and continued sys- tematic clean culture during the sum- mer season.
