The Cultare ~ Wlnler Wheat Ia 1llnne.

Tue C0utUFO u W10uer meat III M100es

Il has been demonstrated that winter wheat can be
raised successfully, Notwithstanding in some instances
the crops have proved Improbable, for which | think I
can give good and substantial reasons. In the 6rst
place on light sandy prairie land, that Hes exposed to
the cold bleak winds Of winter, | have noticed . failure
in almost every instance and, secondly, where the seed
has been sown ~ late as the LIST Of October, it has also
proved unsuccessful. From personal observation I give
it as my opinion that winter wheat should be sown FROM
the middle Of August to the goth Of September. In
preparing the ground I would pillow deep say six or
eight inches then drag the ground over before sowing,
until the surface is even, that the seeds may be got 10
Of one depth. would prefer : double or treble shoal
pillow for putting in the seed, or a two horse c~ultivator
would do very we'll with one exception, that is, it would
not leave the ground ~ rough as it should be. My
idea Of leaving the ground rough IL for this purpose
the wind is not 80 likely to blow the snow Of. and leave
the roots Of the plant exposed 70 the cold winter wind.
A coating Of straw or coarse manure will be- beneficial
for this purpose. l have noticed that winter wheat has
done the best on hazel.busb ground, or arounl the tim.
her lani. In Dakota county | have been informed there
has been a number of crops raised which produ .ei from
thirty TO ~thirty.6ve bushels to the acre. In the fall of
sN~s~ DU~SS - Ss'Y va ~ ~ ~ "1. 1/1Uices
that produced 4 ut the rate II forty bushels per acre. 1
have Deen informed that in every case where an album
dant crop has been awarded, the crop had been put into
the ground early in the fall.
From what l have learned from the past FIVE years
experience in this Territory, l would highly recon- mend
the culture Of winter grain, as l have the highest an.
~ticipation that Minnesota will be able to compete with
any of her sister States. Doubtless there il more yet
to be learned, and it is the farming ~intere-t to be ex-
.p~rimenting and investigating upon this sui ject, as it
will greatly advance the labors Of the farm by doug a
portion Of the seeding in the fall. It will make a sav.
ing of one hand and one team in the culrvating Of one
hundred acres Of small grain Another great advantage
which is to be derived from the culture Of winter grain,
il that it is = superior article to export, and this season
We shall have a surplus, if the coming harvest shauld
bring forth as abundantly as it has years before. Win.
ter rye has be. n raised here with universal success. Rye
meal is the best feed for horses and cattle that is pro-
duced from English gain. and gives the mos. nutriuent
per acre. It becomes y settled fact that it is an important
crop to raise. by the old and experienced it is said
that rye meal and cut straw, wet and mlxed together, is
the heal'hest feed for stock that is produced. .. rsds j
