Corn Planting in Northern Iowa.

d.
Algona Upper Des Moines-Republi-
can: The Register and Leader re.
prints in full Ambrose A. Calls sug-
gestions regarding emergency corn
planting as outlined in these columns
last week, and says:
The Register and Leader has sub
mitted this suggestion to Henry Wal
lace, who says that it is undoubtedly
good one. If possible, however, he
would disc harrow the ground and put
on planter, if the condition of the soil
will permit"
Mr. Call in this case has given no
advice the value of which he has not
fully tested and found good. Of course
if the soil is in condition for seasonable
blowing and planting the usual meth
DDS will be preferred But if the time
comes when the farmer sees he will
not be able to put in his corn at all if
he waits till the ground is dry enough
to pillow he had better plant with a hoe,
on top of the ground Then by the time
his corn is ready to be cultivated it
may be hoped that the ground will be
dry enough to drive a team on to cult
vate.
A good many farmers have assured
the Upper Des Moines-R Republican that
they have tried Mr.. Calls method and
found it to be complete success. So
many have so testified that there can
be no doubt about it,
OF course it is not proposed to nut
corn in by any method when there is
water standing on the ground. But
when the soil itself is in condition to
take the seed and make it grow. but
is too soft to bear up horses and pillow
and planter there is no reason why
successful planting may not be done
this spring.
There are at this time many such
cases. While with good weather a
large part of the area now too wet to
plant will be in condition by the first
of June, a great number of fields will
not be. A considerable part of the land
in some localities is still submerged
1t looks now like a grounding case
and great many farmers will have to
Use Mr.. Calls suggestions or lose the
Use of their corn land. That means that
1t will not be good year for them.

NECK BROKEN.

Valuable Animal Belonging to An
drew Hill Falls Down Embankment.
From Wednesdays Daily
A 3-year-old mare belonging to An
drew Hill, city street commissioner,
was found late yesterday afternoon in
a pasture near his home, ia Kirllwood
avenue, at the foot of forty-foot en-
banlment with her neck broken in
two places. The mare had been in the
pasture during the afternoon and it is
supposed that in feeding near the edge
of the embankment she got too close
and the ground gave way allowing her
to fall down the steep sides and strike
upon her head. A veterinary surgeon
was called, but nothing could be done
to save the animal A pistol shot put
an end to her suffering. The mare
was quite valuable and several good
offers for her had been but recently
refused.
