Shortgrass Potato Growing.

In 1911 l raised 80 bushels OF potatoes
on acre OF ground. II was the fifth
crop since the sod was broken but the
fret crop OF potatoes ever grown there
Iplowed the ground Q to inches deep
with l4-inch pillow and dropped the
seed in every third row as plowei.
had cut the potatoes to 2-eye pieces
The planting was done about April 10
and the seed used was northern grown
Red River Early Ohio stock As the
plants began to appear above the
ground l mulched them with wheat
straw to a depth OF 10 to l2 inches.
which finally settled down to or 4
inches. Isprayed with Paris green for
the common black potato bug and the
Colorado beetle. The only way got
rid OF the tomato worms which raided
my patch was to pick them of. 1t was
part OF this potato crop that helped
Seward county win third place at the
Hutchinson fair and some OF the po-
tatoes were exhibited at the Chicago
and Kansas City land shows.
In my 20 years Of successful potato
growing have found that IL does not
pay to use wilted stock for seed. use
only sound potatoes with the red tint
OF the northern grown stock Two
eye cuts planted IL TO 10 inches apart
IN the row are best. Straw is best for
mulching. would not use coarse hay
or fodder. 1t is best not to plant po-
tatoes on the same ground twice in
succession. ! find April to 10 to be
the best time for planting the regular
crop.

The prospects are that the acreage
planted to broomcorn this year will he
fifty per cent greater than last year
Beaver and Ellis counties according to
government statistics are the two
greatest broomcorn producing counties
in the world. Beaver county led last
year by something like three million
pounds that crop alone being the prin-
cipal crop Of that county. Broomcorn
Is one Of the best paying crops that can
be raised by western farmer, it al
ways commands a good price, is easily
handled and always ready sale. 1t
natures in from sixty to eighty days
and the work in the broomcorn fields
comes when other work on the farm
can be laid aside or put off. Every
farmer in Ellis county should make 1t
a point to have a patch of broomcorn
this year just as a sort Of nest egg on
the side The kids" can "tend" the
hroumcorn crop and have money to 20
to the picnics and fairs on this fall.
Don't fail to plant a patch OF broom
corn and be in the swim this fall
