with the week ending August 6. 1911.
With very nearly normal Temperature
and frequent showers over the larger
part of the state, the crops generally
show an improvement over last week.
The rainfall was copious to heavy over
the eastern and extreme southwestern
counties, and in those sections the i'm
provements. especially in late corn and
potatoes, is we'll marked, while in other
districts where the showers were light
to moderate the improvement was
slight or the crops barely held their
own. The rains came too late over the
western two-thirds of the state to be
of much benefit to early corn. which
has been damaged by the drought and
will not produce more than half crop
In the eastern counties corn with a con-
tinuance of showers or good soaking
rain will make fair yield. Pastures
and late potatoes have improved in
many sections, but more rain is need
ed. Threshing from shock has been
completed in many localities. The
week closed with heavy rains in the
central counties.

sideration Of the farmer in making
his field opop y'sn< for another year:
Fields IT, 0alD peoperly prepared
for tho eeasnpH a satisfactory
yield in ~ Of dry weather.
The Iowa experiment station bulle-
tin on winter wheat growing in Iowa
offers these timely suggestions:
Plow or DISC the stubble on the
ground chosen for winter wheat in
August. Cultivate it until the soil is
we'll pulverized.
Winter wheat should be sown by
September 10 in central Iowa; it can
be successfully sown little later in
southern Iowa; in northern Iowa it
should be sown little earlier than
this.
Winter wheat should be sown with
drill. One and one-half (1k) bush
els per acre Of good wheat seed should
be drilled at depth of from two and
one-half to three inches. on a we'll
prepared seed bed.
It does not pay to SOW any but the
best of grain, viz, the medium to
large, plump, hinty, translucent seed.
Winter wheat costs, under average
conditions, $1O.72 per acre. The
average good yield of winter wheat is
twenty bushels per acre, leaving
good margin for net profit.
Iowa soils are we'll adapted to the
growing of winter wheat. The eli
matte conditions of the state are not
SO favorable to the growth of this
crop as is generally believed, The
growing of winter wheat fits into
Iowa systems Of crop rotations salts

The pure bred business is caused by
and is essential to the general live
stock industry. At present this bus
mess offers great possibilities to Iowa
farmers-not the possibilities of the
faddist, but of the practical stockman
who develops his stock by the intro
duction of improved blood made pre-
potent by generations of consistent
breeding. The Agricultural has sew.
eral letters from many leading pure
bred live stock breeders of this state
all of whom mention the great posi-
bilities that Iowa offers along This
line. From the money standpoint
pure bred stock raising has proved
very successful in the hands Of these
experienced breeders. And aside from
the money there is the other consider.
alton that by improving his own ami
mails farmer raises the standard Of
stock and in so doing he is of material
benefit to his neighbours. The same
resources that made possible Iowa's
premier position as a stock producing
state are today inviting the Iowa
farmer to profitable labor in the pro-
duction of improved farm animals"
