At the Wisconsin experiment station
Samples Of corn taken forty.two days
after planting. when the tops were
about eighteen inches high. showed that
the roots OF two hills met and passed.
each other in the center OF rows three
and n half feet apart and had prne-
trlted the soil to a depth OF about
eighteen inches. Tie surface roots
s!Oped gently downward toward the
center OF the row. where they were
about eight inches below the surface.
At the time OF the last cultivation,
when the corn was nearly three feet
high, the roots were found 10 occupy
the entire soil down TO a depth OF about
two feet, and the surface laterals de-
seconded In a gentle curve toward the
center OF the row and passed one an.
other at a depth OF only six Inches. A
third sample taken when the corn was
coming into full tussel showed that the
roots had fully occupied the upper three
feet OF soil In the entire field and that
the surface latcrals at this time had
risen SIN higher, a few OF them being
scarcely five inches beneath the sur.
face. At maturity the roots extended
fully four feet into the soil, and the
upper laterals were within four inches

A popular belief prevails that lime
produces potato scab and that barn.
yard manure does the same thing.
This Is IN erroneous opinion, because
nothing can produce potato scab ex.
cept spores Of the scab fungus. This
scab fungus. however, thrlyes best In
an alkaline soil, and a heavy coat OF
barnyard manure or a dressing Of lime
catses the soil to become alkaline; con.
sequently II there are spores OF the
scab fungus In n soil that has been
treated With lime or a heavy dressing
OF barnyard manure the conditions Of
