THE MANGUM TERRACE. 



11 



In this system of tciTiicing tliere is no waste of land. Like all 

 other terrace systems, care must be taken to preserve the terrace when 

 once constrncted. Do not break the bank with a turning plow with- 

 out carefully fillin<r up the furrow afterwards. Fill up all dead 

 furrows that cut the bank. 



It takes several years to l)uihl u]) a thoroiighly satisfactory terrace 

 bank. With reasonable care the terrace should last for manv gren- 

 erations.
