unfortunately for u.s. so much OF ours
has been produced, the stalk does
not naturally grow large. AS we come
south its size increases, at the ex-
pense Of the ear, until in Cuba and
Mexico it is nearly all stalk. (Wit-
ness Mexican varieties.)
The purpose of this method is tc
eliminate this tendency Of corn to
overgrowth at the expense Of the
yield, in this southern climate.
BY this method I have made my
corn crop more profitable than my
cotton crop and my neighbors and
friends who have adopted It have,
without exception, derived great ben
eft therefrom.
Plant your own seed. would not
advise a change of seed and method
the same year, as you would not
know from which You have derived
the benefit. I have used three va
rieties and all have done we'll.
have never used this method for late
planting In fact, I do not advise
the late planting of corn, unless II
is necessary for cold lowlands.
The increased cost Of labor and the
high price Of all material and land,
are rapidly making farming unprof-
table. except to those who are get
ting from one acre what they former
ly got from two. We must make our
lands richer by ploughing deep,
planting peas and other legumes, ma
nuring them with acid phosphate.

Bed with turn plough In six-foot
rows, leaving five-inches balk. When
ready to plant, break this out with
scooter, following in bottom of this
furrow deep with Dixie plough, wing
taken off, Ridge then on this furrow
with same plough, still going deep.
Run corn planter on this ridge, drop
ping one grain every five or six
inches. Plant early, as soon as frost
danger is past, say, first seasonable
spell after March fifteen, in this Sec
ton. Especially is early planting
necessary on very rich land, where
stalks cannot otherwise be prevented
from growing too large. Give first
working with harrow or any plough
that will not cover the plant. For
second working, use ten or twelve
inch sweeps on both sides Of corn,
which should now be about eight
inches high. Thin after this work
ing. 1t is not necessary that the
plants should be left all the same dis
tance apart, II the right number re-
main to each yard Of row.
Corn should not be worked again
until the growth has been so retard-
ed, and the stalk so hardened that
it will never grow too large. This is
the most difficult part in the whole
process. Experience and judgment
are required to know Just how much
the stalk should be stunted. and plen-
ty of nerve Is required to hold back
your corn when your neighbors, who
fertilized at planting time and cul-
tivated rapidly, have corn twice the
size Of yours. (They are having their
fun now. Yours will come at har-
vest time) The richer the land the
more necessary 1t Is that the stunt
ing process should be thoroughly
DONE
When you are convinced that
your corn has been sufficiently hu-
inflated you may begin to make the
ear. 1t should now be from twelve
to fourteen inches high, and look
worse than you ever had any corn
to look before.

terestins Story Well Told.
The following article was written
by Mr.. E. McIver Williamson at the
request of the Hartsville Messenger.
and first printed in that newspaper:
For a number of years after I be-
gan to farm 1 followed the old-time
method of putting the fertilizer all
under the corn, planting on level
or higher, six by three feet, pushing
the plant from the start and making
a big stalk, but the ears were few
and frequently small. planted much
corn in the spring and bought
much more corn the next spring,
until finally I was driven to the con-
clusion that corn could not be made
on uplands in this section, certainly
not by the old method, except at a
loss.
Il did not give up, however, for l
knew that the farmer who did not
make his own corn never had sue
ceeded, and never would, so I began
to experiment. First, I planted low
er, and the yield was better, but the
stalk was still too large, so I dis
continued altogether the application
of fertilizer before planting, and,
knowing that all crops should be
fertilized at some time, used mixed
fertilizer as a side application and
applied the more soluble nitrate Of
soda later, being guided in this by the
excellent results obtained from its
use as a top dressing for oats. Still
