RAISE MORE WHEAT
URGES SEC. HOOKER
At E!lLERS' MEET

Secretary III. r.. Hooker OF the state
miller's association was unquestion-
ably right a few days ago when he
tons meeting in Lansing. There is
no reason why Michigan should not
become one OF the greatest wheat
raising states" Secretary Hooker
goes on To say. THE lower peninsula
has all of the essentials for successful
wheat growing. 1t has the necessary
climate tempered by our surrounding
lakes, and the soil. which produces the
finest quality of soft winter wheat"
1t frequently happens that the corn
crop of Michigan is failure. and
little comment is made yet farmers
persist in raising corn. But when the
wheat crop is "A failure a great cry is
made and the result is that wheat is
considered an uncertain crop in Mich
igan.
Statistics show that this is not a
fact. If care is exercised in preparing
the ground. selecting the seed. plant
ing and harvesting. wheat is as sure
and as profitable crop as amy in the
state.

would be well for the wheat raiser to
observe a few suggestions as follows
BE particularly careful in the
selection of seed The long berry red
variety is best suited TO this locality.
Free it from foul seeds and inferior
kernels. Dip or sprinkle the seed in
"A solution Of blue vitrol Of formalde-
hyde for smut. Fit the ground care
fully and do not sow the seed until
after September 20, as recommended
by the state Agriculture College, thus
avoiding the Hessian fly, wheat's
greatest enemy
The wheat growers of Michigan
should take advantage of the unusual
situation because of the European war
and plant large acreage this year.
Much less wheat will be raised the
coming year and approximately the
same amount will be consumed. The
United States must supply the most
