How often should Corn Be Cultivatcd2

How often should Corn Be Cultivated?
Thirty plats were devoted last season
to the answering of this question at the
Kansas station. The experiment was
divided into two series of fifteen plats
each. Series a had five plats cultivated
twice a week, FIVE plats once week and
five plats once i'll two weeks. The three
five plat groups in series B were cult
waited, respectively, two, four and six
times during the season. The implement
used was a spring tooth cultivator that
gave shallow culture and could be run
close TO the plants without disturbing
the roots. The land was clay loam.
A uniformity III yield in the plats
under similar treatment, in both series,
is noted in the report Of results. But
what is still more interesting is that the
highest Yields attained in both series.
when cultivated once in two weeks and
when cultivated four times during the
season. is the result of what is practi
cally the same amount of cultivation.
Though the culture did not occur on the
same dates for bot sets, the p'15s cult
waited once in two reeks were $50 gone
over four times. This experiment also
seemed. to prove that. in a wet season
like the last, and on soil of the character
here employed, it is possible to give cora
both too much and too little culture.
The latter case is readily conceded by
everybody. but that the ground can be
stirred too often will probably not meet
with so universal assent. Nor is it proc
able that the mere stirring Of the sur
. face is in itself injurious, if the soil /:
not too wet when worked: bat the

vator runs through the rows the greater

that now and then a leaning stalk will
be broken by the team in spite of the
care exercised by the plowman, and the
