National Crop Improvement Service.1
Commonly grass follows wheat or
rye In rotation, but may be success
fully sown after spring rye or wheat
but the most encouraging results will
follow from methods such as have
been proven By experiments. The
custom has been TO SOW grass with
wheat in the autumn and to SOW
clover when that Is used on the wheat
land early in the spring. This may
be a good plan, but cannot be relied
upon.
After the wheat is harvested, long
hot summers give the young grass
or clover plants a hard struggle.
To make the growing of grass most
profitable, separate preparation OF
Land and separate sowing of the grass
seed In the late summer or early fall
after the removal Of the wheat crop
Ia by far the most promising method
AS soon as possible after the cutting
OF the wheat, the stubble should be
disc narrowed and the surface put II
fine, mellow condition for one or two
inches deep and should be occasion
ally re-harrowed through the summer
when the moisture cont,mt is right
and then heavily seeded with mixed
grass, in the late summer.
