seed per acre was as good as nearly
two bushels.
There is not much doubt that one
bushel of wheat per acre under favor
able conditions will produce as great
a yield as bushel and a half or two
bushels. The first requirement is
fertile soil adapted to wheat, to give
the young plants a vigorous growth.
The second is early sowing, so that
the plants will have time to spread
and cover the ground before winter as
protection to the roots against winter
killing. Some farmers contend that it
is better to SOW two bushels of wheat
per acre in order that the plants need
not be obliged to stool out so much
cover the ground. 1t seems to be well
established that a good soil and early
sowing require less seed.
In England, when the seeding is
done the first of October (Which is
considered early, two bushels of
wheat are sown per acre. when de-
layed until the middle of November,
three bushels are sown per acre. For
some reason, thicker seeding seems to
be more necessary in England than in
America. An English writer says: ut
is true that on land in a high state OF
fertility, and kept scrupulously clean,
a full crop of wheat may be obtained
from half a bushel of seed per acre,
provided that it is sown in September
and deposited regularly over the sur
face. The most experienced growers
of wheat are convinced of the benefit
of having the ground fully occupied
at the time when active spring growth
begins"
That corn can be planted too closely
is proved by the case of corn sown for
forage, where even on a rich soil the
stalks will be slender and most Of
them barren or only producing nub-
bins.
In seeding land for meadows, |
think the danger generally is in not
sowing enough grass seed. Enough
should be sown to occupy the whole
ground at once and leave no room for
weeds.

Unknown to us, the regulator OF the
seeding works had got out Of order

half the seed left leaving in the
ground less than a bushel per acre, !
sent him back to cross-sow it and get
in the remainder of the seed. When
night came he had got over about half
of the field the second time. During
the night and next day heavy rain

was dry enough to go on, the grain
