Garden Work for 1933 Fall at Montana State College
Fall gardening tips from Isaac emphasize cleaning old plant refuse and burning to kill overwintering insects, while replacing humus with decayed barnyard manure. Fall plowing loosens soil and exposes pests to freezing, with manure added beforehand. Store snow protection, build dikes, dig hotbed pits filled with manure, and preserve root cellar soil to prevent deep freezing, then renew manure in spring.
