It usually is. you may SOW it to

early in the spring.
With fall rains the peaches

Harvesting Corn
EDITOR GAZETTE:

As you are always willing to
help, I would like to be informed
on the following to me important
question. if possible in your nex,
issue as tim" il going by now
fast: Wha' is the cheapest and
best way TO take care of corn
fodder, pulling the h'edes or
cutting the stalk and all? How
and when should it be taken
care Of? In Illinois we have
been accustomed to cutting the
stalk and all. shocking ia the
field, and then hauling out aud
feeding it at a convenient time
most suitably in damp weather
as the blades will not fall off so
much then and cause waste.
Doing this is very hard on the
land, as nothing is left to turn
under. II is something I was
never much in favor Of.
People here tell me fodder cut
and shocked does not keep well,
probably spelling on account of
20 much warmth and damp
weather unless put under shell
ter; and that requires expensive
roofs. Pulling the blades is
something new to me, although
it seems = suitable way since il
is mostly the leaves that stock
want. II also causes less cx.
pense to put it under a roof, the
grain aud stalk remaining 10
the field, the corn to be gather
ed alta suitable time and the
stalk 10 be plowcd under. But
here comes the question. when
IS the time to pull the blades:
When the corn il ripe aud dry,
the blades or leaves are also dry
and brittle as tobacco leaves.
Pulling the blades when green
would surely make the best feed
OF them, but the corn is yet too
much in the milk, il seems 10
me. or will the grain left on the
stalk after pulling the blades
keep 6iling out and mature well
and not shrink? Would such
corn make good seed corn. or in
il inadvisable TO plant eor when
the blades have been pulled?
As we have a good deal OF
stock. we would like to take care
OF the corn fodder and want to
do it the best and cheapest way
for this country and At the same
time we don't want to keep the
corn from maturing. We also

JOHN SCHMIDT, Egypt, Miss.
Answer by Prof. E. II. Lloyd.
Agricultural College, Miss:
Cut the stalk when the grain
~ well glazed and shock in the
field Just as you did in Illinois.
| have handled several corn crops
IN this way and had no trouble 10
curing or keeping the shocked
corn. This is cheaper and more
economical than pulling fodder.
The grain is all right for seed,
whether the whole stalk is cut
and shocked or the blades
pulled. IL done at the proper
stage. Cut the stalk or pull fod-
der after the grain has glazed.
In this connection the follow
log data n to the point: The
ear grain aud cob is 40 per
cent Of the whole corn plant.
while the slower (stalks. blades
and shucks) is 81 per cent. But
animals can use a. feed a larger
percentage Of the grain than OF
the stovcr; hence, the feeding
value Of the corn plant is 81 per
cent. for the ear and ~ per
cent. for the stovcr.
Pulling fodder is expensive.

experiments made to test the ef.
