Harvesting Small Grains.

Written for The Republic.
With all small grain crops especially
it is necessary To harvest them at the
right time in order to secure them in the
best possible condition.
y few days delay will not only often
lower the quality of the grain, but ma
teTially increase the loss in handling.
On this account it is quite an item to
make all the preparations possible in
advance and then when the growing
grain has reached the best stage push
the harvesting as much as possible.
1t is also an item to leave the cultiva-
waited crops in good condition. while the
harvesting of the grain crops is being
done. 1t is better to hire extra help be
fore harvest begins and have the cult
waited crop clean of weeds and in good
filth than to be obliged to hire extra
help during harvest on their account.
Overhaul the machinery and if any re-
pairs are needed have them made before
the harvest work begins, and if new ma
chinery is needed secure it so that after
harvest begins there need be no unneces-
sary delay.
After n crop is grown to maturity it
is good economy TO use all reasonable
pains to harvest in the best condition.

CLEAN CULTIVATION.

Written for The Republic.
If the weeds and grass can be kept
down among the cultivated crops until
the plants have made a sufficient growth
fully TO shade the soil. it win he much
easier from that time on TO give clean
cultivation.
Just how many times the civilizations
should be repeated depends very much
upon the growth and condition of the
plants. and the condition of the soil.
There is only one safe rule and that is
to continue the cultivation until the
crop can be considered as made and the
soil be left clean of weeds and In good
filth. SO far as can be lone when the
last cultivation is given the soil should
be left reasonably level, but fine and
mellow.
II IS an exceptional case when it can
be considered advisable to cultivate
deep in giving the last cultivation. The
disturbing and breaking of the roots
that will be done If deep cultivation is
given at this time cannot but be in
furious to the growing plants. While
deep stirring of the soil at this time
tends to dry out the soil more thorough
ly- While occasionally deep cultivation
may be best at first, shallow level cul-
tivation win nearly always be found
best in finishing up.
