0PEN-FURR0W DRILL
Georgia Experiment Station De-
vises Dat Seeding Method.
u 0eelred Fertilizer Attachment May
Be Used-Running Drills Across
Usual Direction Of Winter
Winds Recommended.

(By C. w. WARBURTON. A~gronomist.
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture.)-
The Georgia experiment station a
number Of years ago devised what is
known as the open-furrow method of
seeding oats. BY this method the
seed is own in drills from 16 to "a
inches apart, the ordinary single-row
planter or a specially devised drill be-
Ing used for the purpose. II desired, a
drill with a fertilizer attachment may
be used and the fertilizer distributed
In the burrows with the seed.
The seed is sow in drills or fur
rows several inches deep, SO that the
roots and crowns of the plants are 2
or 3 inches below the surface. The
rains and alternate freezing and thaw-
ing partially fill these burrows, but the
plants are still left we'll below the sur
face. Running the drills across the
usual direction Of the winter winds is
recommended by the Georgia station
As an additional protection, as the
slight wall of earth prevents the full
force Of the wind from striking the
plants. Thus, II the coolest winter
winds are ordinarily from the north
west, the drills should run northeast
and southwest.
In q four-year test at the Alabama
station the open-furrow method o.
seeding was compared with broadcas
seeding. The average yield for thu
broadcast plats was 24.2 bushels Il
the acre, while the plats drilled II
deep burrows yielded 27.4 bushels
Drilled plats in which the furrow
were filled after seeding averaged 26.

DISCARD ONE-HORSE PLOWS
Man or Boy With Three or -Four
Horses or Mules Will Do Three
or Four Times as Much Work.

A sad feature IN travelling over the
south Is the view Of many farmers
following one-horse plows. Every
horse or mule requires a man or
grown boy. The mar or boy is thor
oughly competent to drive two, three
or four mules. By driving or blowing
three or four mules, he a do three
or four times as much work and do It
better than the one-horse farmer. Let
us stop just one moment right now
and ask ourselves this question: Why
do we follow one-horse plows? We
are unable to give a sensible answer
Then let US quit 1t right now.
