Good Advice About Raising Wheat.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: Returning from
the Farmers Convention, had to travel
about 100 miles, by railroad and horseback,
through lower East Tennessee. took
particular notice of the growing wheat
crop. Now and then you see good field,
and invariably you will find that it was
planted on clover land. venture to say
that half the wheat on corn land in lower
East Tennessee will not pay for harvest
ing. 1t makes me sick at heart to think
of the amount of hard work and the thou
sands of bushels of wheat wasted. Why
do farmers sow wheat on corn land? Ask
any of them, and the answer will invaria-
bly, show want of system and fOrethought
A great many do it undoubtedly because
/" DADDY did," though they may not say
so. Will farmers learn lesson from
this, and endeaver to do better next fall
| hope so, but doubt it. The trouble is, a
great many have no clover to pillow up.
TO tell them not to sow wheat is certainly
bad advice, which will certainly not be
needed. Well! Do the next best thing,
prepare your corn land for wheat by sowing
cow peas broadcast at the last blowing,
and turn them under in the fall and you
will stand fair chance in having good
crop of wheat next year. You need not
be afraid to injure your corn, it will not
do it. On the contrary. If you want
TO satisfy yourself about that, leave a few
rows of average land without peas, and
you will find the corn there not as good as
the the average of the field. But if had
no clover on my farm and my wheat crop
was failure, [ would pillow it up now, before
the cookie and cheat got ripe, and sow the
field with cow peas and clover seed. The
crop of peas will pay for all the trouble
and expense, and the clover will be ready
to NOW next year, gaining one year in
trouble is with great many. The bene-
fits to be derived from clover is too far off
for them. Three years is a long time with
some men, but all such men will
never be successful farmers. To be that
it is necessary to adopt a certain system
and plan the year before and fix what crop
to grow on each field. FARMER.
