Making Corn--Shallow Gull

about its aerial part and the ear
we should secure larger yields
per acre, for this knowledge in
evitably would do away with deep
cultivation, which is fundamen-
tally wrong.
AT last l have been able TO Sc
cure photograph which shows
to my satisfaction the root deve-
lopment of corn plant six weeks
old. Of course some of the roots
were broken off in getting this
plant out of the ground, but it
will be seen that it still is
pretty generously supplied. In
length the principal roots of this
plant range from two to five feet.
Imagine what mass of corn roots
is in field when the plants are
six weeks old or older!
A good healthy plant should
have about as much root growth
as the photograph shows. This
plant three weeks later would
show much more elaborate
roots system. 1t would be about
this time that corn would be laid
by.
Plants feed through their roots,
taking in food and water through
the root hairs that branch off
from the large roots. Roots be-
ing the feeders of the plants, great
care should be taken not 10 In
.jure them. But this is not done
by the generality of corn grow
ers. They practice deep culture,
and lay by the crop by p'owing
deep and ridging the rows. Many
soils naturally are shallow, so
that in order to secure plant food,
roots must confne themselves
near the surface, especially when
the moisture supply Is adequate
to their needs.
Now it is evident that deep
culture of corn after it is five
weeks old or older is sure to prune
the roots. Every grower has
had proof of this when he lifted
his gangs out at the end of the
row and noticed clusters Of fine
roots wrapped round the shanks
right over the shovels. These
are corn roots that have been
torn out. The more of them you
break off the more difficult it is
for the plants to gather feed; you
handicap them just that much,
and cause them to use their EN-
ergies in overcoming the injury.
Every root is busy conveying
food and water to the plant. Cut
it off and the plant suffers. You
may not notice the injury, but
its effects will be reflected in the
yield, even though you may Sc
cure what you think is good
yield-it would have been larger
if you had not pruned the roots
by deep cultivation.
If you don't believe this, all

1t has other advantages, too.
Surface tillage leaves the field
level so that it is more easily got
over by wagons, mowers, binders
and other implements that are
used the same or the following
year. Deep cultivation facilitat-
es soil erosion, especially in rol
ling districts. such as We have
here. Flowing deep at the last,
or when laying by corn, is Sc.
we're shock to the plants, sever
ing thousands of roots, disturb
ing others and promoting the
evaporation of moisture. 1t is
more than no cultivation at all.
Many grower has injured his
crop to the extent of eight or ten
bushels per acre in this way.
There is no excuse for ridging
corn at any time, especially when
laying it by. Some men think
the brace roots should be cover
ed, and for this reason practice
throwing dirt to the corn. This
is mistake; brace roots do not
require such attention. They
are for emergencies. If the corn
plant should be lodged, then
these brace roots will get busy
and help it get up or aid it in
overcoming the injury inflicted
by the wind or other cause of the
plants downfall.
Most farmers practice deep
cultivation in order to cover up
the weeds that are not cut out by
the operation. If they would
use the right kind of cultivators
there would not be any weeds to

which eliminated in giving her
Diamond in the rough a setting be-

The good wife brought cluster
of ten little Diamonds to court with
her. 1t was a pitiful story-of pow

tends TO make life a hardship for
the woman.
