Today I had to go to the farm and dig a hole. . . A place for Lizzi-Beth's plum tree.
I have to say that the ground I found there is absolutely the best digging earth I have ever dug. It is deep and the loam is exquisite. No mud, even on a rainy day, no clay, great aeration. Went down three feet in fifteen minutes without having to cut anything. Nothing like the Massoula flood muds found everywhere else in Washington county.
There will someday be a very good farm there; the earth is good; the roots will go deep.
