growers on this experiment that
feared that 1t would turn out badly.
1t looked at first when the corn was
young like a piece of very poor farm
ing, but | had an idea in mind and
wanted to test 1t to my satisfaction.
The idea was as to whether a bet
ter corn crop can be grown by fully
mixing the soil before planting or
whether a part of it can just as well
be done after planting, while the corn
is growing. One years experience on
one kind of soil, of course, will not
give conclusive proof
The first thing l did to this poorly
planted acre of corn was to give 1t
four single harrowings at intervals OF
few days apart while the corn was
young. This was done to level and
compact the loose and very uneven
soil.
The corn came on and grew, but
did not make as much early gains as
did the corn in adjacent and better
prepared soil.
By the last of July the other corn
was about a foot taller than 1t, and
evidently thriving better In other
ways.
When the other corn was cultivated
for the last time gave this place two
thorough extra civilizations. and, the
later rains helping. this corn is now
caring nicely and is apparently as
good as the rest that was planted ON
well prepared soil.
The final result will be known at
gathering time. believe that with
