GREEN CORN FOR
FODDER AND SIL0
Plant an Early Variety for Feed.
inq to CoWs-Runout Sod
Ground.

For feeding green to cows during
the summer, plant an early variety OF
corn. Select rim-cut, sod-ground, or
ground from which a crop of crimson
clover or green rye has been cut of.
Pillow the ground. harrow and roll be-
fore the fresh plowed ground can dry
out. Mark out the long way OF field
and drill half bushel of corn and 400
pounds of a standard bone fertilizer
TO the acre. This is much the quickest
and most economical way. 1t saves
time and labor. The corn is put in at
the right depth and without waste OF
seed. Four hundred pounds of good
superphosphate to the acre, applied to
good sod land, will bring a good crop
of forage. If land is thin, spread a
coat of manure and harrow II in, then
drill the corn in with the phosphate.
Run the drills feet apart II the
field Is weedy, plant in hills so the
crop can be cultivated both ways. AS
soon as the corn can be plainly seen,
start the sulky cultivator, using the
steel chisel teeth. Early cultivation
kills weeds and starts vigorous
growth of the corn. Plant the variety
OF corn that is best suited to your soil
and climate. Homegrown seed Is
best and much the cheapest. The num-
Der of acres to plant will depend upon
the capacity of silo, and the number
OF stock to feed. One acre OF good
land. given thorough culture, Will yield
10 to ~ tons of forage. For green
feed to supplement the pasture during
the latter part of summer and early
fall, one acre for Is head OF cows
should be planted. Have one large
field and drill the corn the long way
OF field. BE sure to have the ground
finely pulverized and rolled; the field
can then be quickly planted and early
! cultivation given. Corn is the best
crop TO grow for green feed for the
| silo, or to cure for winter feed

Wireless M ap.

A novelty in the way Of maps has
just been issued by the German impe-
rial postoffice, which has compiled a
chart showing the principal wireless
telegraph stations in the world. The
object is to advertise the facilities
now afforded in Germany for "draht-
lose" telegraphy. German stations
are, of course, given special promi'
nence on the map, and in this connec-
ton it is interesting to note that the
station at Neuen is claimed to be the
most powerful in existence, its range
being 2,.J0 miles This is two hun
bred miles more than that of Eiffel
