MAKE WHEAT PAY.
A Farmer Tells How Wheat Can BE
Made to Pay

A Farmer Tells How Wheat Can BE
Made to Pay.
1t has been q question with many
farmers within the past few years
whether OF not to quit the raising Of
wheat and turn their attention to some
other better paying crop. If the farmer
decides that he must raise wheat, he
must study the conditions under which
1t can bc done at a profit. With the i'm
proved machinery of the present day,
the cost of production is greatly less
ened, and if, with improved culture
and seed, he can produce two heads
OF wheat containing twice or thrice the
number of grains where but one head
formerly grew, the question is readily
solved. Where fifteen to twenty BUSH
els OF wheat were produced, which sold
for from so cents to 81 a bushel, the
only remedy now is to double the yield
under the conditions named, and the
profit side looms up grandly. But can
this be done? What one man has &C
complished, another can do under like
circumstances, and if friend Terry CAN
raise from forty, to fifty bushels per
acre, as he did last year, others can do
likewise under like conditions. The
thing to do, then, is to farm better.
Not quit the raising of wheat, but raise
it under more favorable conditions,
and instead of overcropping put in half
the number Of acres at half the eX-
pense and double the crop, with like
increase Of profits. It may not be very
consoling to the farmer to know that
the toiling millions have cheap bread
at his expense, yet he should remember
that he large enjoys the productions of
cheap labor in his sugar, at from 3
cents to cents a pound; nails, at from
2 cents to 3 cents a pound; calico, 1T
from cents to 5 cents a yard, and
other commodities in proportion, so
that 50-cent wheat will buy nearly, if
not quite as much as he formerly
bought with his dollar wheat. Every
thing except the trusts and combines
(and we are in doubt if they should be
eXcepteO tends to cheaper production,
and the production of wheat is no eX-
ception. So, to keep pace with the on
ward strides Of business competition
the farmer must double the production
per acre, lessen the cost and improve
in the quality of the grain. To do this
he must study the conditions and re-
Quirements Of the soil, and if the ele-
ments are wanting that go to make
a large yield they must be supplied.
He must next study the best conditions
in which the soil must be put, and run
not needless risks, but personally see
that the required conditions are COM
piled with, such as drainage and
thorough preparation. Good seed
should next claim his attention, for
if like produces, like, to produce the
best yield he must SOW the best seed
obtainable. With these conditions
faithfully followed there is no reason
to abandon the cultivation Of wheat
because it is not paying CROP. T..

A Cheap Silo.

The Colorado Stats experiment sta
ton has tested very cheap method
of siio construction, and Prof. w. w.
Cooke furnishes the following particu-
lars: Our soil here is almost perfectly
dry when not irrigated, So we were
able to dig eight feet into it without
fear of water ever troubling us. This
is the zeal secret of the cheapness Of
our silo. After digging the hole by
pillow and scraper in side hill feet
at rear and six feet in front ard twen-
ty-two feet square, we laid 2xS sill,
so as to make our silo twenty feet
square on,the inside; 2xS studding, two
feet apart and twelve feet high, with a
2xS plate, formed the skeleton, and
this was lined with one thickness of
one-inch unplaned and unmatched
boards, and one thickness OF tarred pa
per. The doors are on the lower side,
and begin about four feet from the TOP
and extend to within three and one
half feet of the bottom. A passage
way is dug out at this depth in the dirt
outside. The silo has no roof whatey-
er. A layer of straw is put on top Of
the ensilage, and then the dirt from the
sides shoveled on to the straw. to
make a six-inch layer. This is suffi-
Client to keep out frost and absorb the
heaviest rains and snow that ever oc-
cur in this region. When the ensilage
is fed cut in freezing weather, a layer
of poles is put fiat over the top and the
straw from the silo put on top of this.
We have thus fed the ensilage without
freezing, with nothing but canvas
over the door when the mercury was
% below zero. The total cost Of the
silo, exclusive Of labor, was $40; capac-
ity, sixty-fOur tOns.-Indiana Farmer
