PREPARING FOR WHEAT
Much Depends on Method to Be
Used and on Season.
Under irrigation Flowing should Pref
srab'y Be Done In Fall, Followed
BY Dick and Harrow TO Con-
serve Moisture.

The best preparation of land for
wheat depends upon whether spring
wheat or winter wheat IL to be grown
and whether Dry Farming" or irriga-
ton. says the Colorado Farmer. Some
thing will also depend upon season
and the forwardness OF the work.
For Spring Wheat.--Under irriga.
ton the plowing should preferably be
done In the fall. except on lands sub
ject to plowing. Following the plow
should come the disk and harrow.
This treatment may look unnecessary,
but the better soil and soil moisture
conditions resulting from such treat
ment pay. The soil go treated Is com.
pact and moist below and loose at the
surface. while the, soil left as the
plow turns 1t over Is more often dry
and flufy as deep as the furrow slice.
In the first instance there ID moisture
enough present to start the crop and
usually keep II growing some time.
In the second place. the seed must be
irrigated up or lie and wait for a
favorable rain. Fall plowing may be
deeper. II properly managed. than
spring plowing. Deep plowing follow
ed by proper treatment gives higher
yields. Deep plowing . be most sue
cessful must be done sometime before
planting In order to allow some wealth
ering. Flowing which for any reason
Is done Immediately before planting
should be shallow, not over five inches
Under this condition, II will give high
er yields than deep blowing.
The land need not be plowed follow
ing such crops as sugar beets or pota
toes. In this case, the land Is best
disked and narrowed after the cror
is harvested, as the harvesting pro
cess works the soil deeply. The only
further spring treatment needed viii
be disking, narrowing and leveling
Spring wheat should be planted early

Both winter and spring wheat dt

This Is due to the fact that heav!
lands are better natura. wheat landl
than sandy ones. There is. also, al
