growth OF the wheat.
A few years ago, in an experiment
conducted by the Kansas station.
earlyplowed land gave much better
results than that plowed late. Similar
results were secured by the Okla.
homa experiment station While II Is
perhaps not so important that wheat
land be plowed as early in Missouri as
In other states, yet early blowing is
to be recommended In practically all
cases.
The depth OF blowing depends large.
~ upon the soil and upon the time. On
deep soils land for what Is best
plowed deep, providing the blowing
be done early enough for the proper
preparation OF the seeded. An ideal
seeded for wheat Is one which has
been stirred deep, wellcompacted be-.
low and with a loose layer of soil on
top. 1t takes considerable time to
work the ground down in good shape,
and this Is another reason why the
land should be plowed early.
Where it is necessary to pillow late,
land is usually plowed shallow, since
1t is difficult matter to compact the
seeded where it is plowed just a few
days previous to seeding. A good
double discing before blowing win aid
In compacting the seedhed, for the
loosen.d soil will fall to the bottom
of-the furrow and Ill the air spaces
that otherwise would be left there.
Discing is to be recommended before
blowing for wheat in most cases, espe-
cially where the blowing is done late
or where much weeds, grass and 9th.

INCREASING WHEAT YIELD
PREPARING SEEDED so AS TO
INCREASE YIELD IN MISSOURI.
BY c. 3. Hutchinson, Assistant Pro.
fessor of Agronomy, Univer.
sity of Missouri

The average yield OF wheat in Mis-.

about 1917 bushels per acre. 1t re-
quires approximately - bushels Of
wheat at the average November price
for the last decade to meet this eX.
pense, together with that of taxes,
interest on the investment and the
value of plant food removed from the
land.
This evidently means that there are
u great many farmers in the state
who are actually growing wheat at a
loss. or course, there are sections
where wheat is especially adapted,
where much better yields than these
are obtained. but at the same time
there are many farms where the yield
of wheat Is not what II should be,
and where its growing has not been
very profitable.
Il is, OF course, realized by many
farmers that the wheat crop, as they
grow II, is not In itself a very profit.
able one, but II fits into the rotation
so well and is of such Importance as
a nurse crop for grass and clover that
1t Is often grown for these reasons.
There is no reason why wheat
should not be made profitable crop
In practically every section OF this
state. and close attention to those
factors controlling the profitable pro-
duction of the crop will aid materially
IN increasing its value and Importance
throughout the state. 1t is to some Of
these factors that the readers atten-
ton is directed at this time.
Preparation of the Seeded.
Wheat ground should be plowed
early and fairly deep. Where the
crop Is to follow oats, rye or any 9th
or crop removed by the middle Of
July, the ground should be plowed as
soon as the previous crop has been
taken off. Early blowing conseryes
the moisture by keeping a loosened
layer OF soil on top to act as mulch.
This means that there win not only
be more moisture there TO terminate
he kernels and to start the plants Off

lowed by frequent working with the
