THE TIME TO PLAN.
The Work of the Farmer Should Be
Planned Months Ahead-Time
to Buy Seed.

The time to plan farm work is sew
eral months ahead of each crop thai
is to be grown. The lack of planning
is responsible for many of the failures
in farming. II the planning is done
too near the time of planting a crop
it will be found that something is in
the way, that something has been over
looked. Thus, in the purchase of seed
for the corn, wheat, oats and other
grain crops of next year it will not do
to wait till midwinter before laying
all plans. If seed is to be purchased
from a distance it is not always easy
to get it, when the scotsman must
send it out in company with a great
multitude of other orders. 1t is neces-
sary TO send in the orders early, so
that the farmer may have time TO
make termination tests to ascertain if
the seed is up to the required standard
in germinability. If it is not, the farm.
er may have to send to another place
for seed, which will in turn have to be
tested
In the sowing of clover seed, plans
should be laid early. 1t will not be
safe to wait till the middle of the win.
ter before ordering the seed. In some
localities the practice is general of
sowing on the snow. and in that case
March will be the month in some locali-
ties and February in other localities
farther south. If the seed is ordered
late it may not arrive till after the de.
sirable conditions have gone. 1t must
In addition be tested before being sown
and this requires some time.
The more skillful a man is in plan
ming his work, says the Farmers Re.
view, the more likely is he to be sue
cessful In the work of the farm. In
large establishments in the city. plans
are often made years in advance and
worked as carefully as one would WORK
to a certain pattern in weaving a car,
pet or other fabric. This is absolutely
necessary in some enterprises. Bust.
ness should go like clockwork and the
farm is business place. There should
be on 1t more bookkeeping and more
planning OF all work in advance.
