eastern fourth or fifth OF the state
this method Of planting gives best
results. The lister method Of plant.
ing corn is adapted to light soils and
to localities Of limited rainfall. In
the western three.fourths OF the state,
this method of planting is almost the
universal one and MS a rule gives bet
ter results than surface planting.
Each method has its advantages
and disadvantages and is superior to
the other only when the conditions
to which they are respectively adapt
ed exist.
Corn planted On the surface usually
terminates better, makes more
rapid and luxuriant growth than list
ed corn, and develops greater Gu
pacity to produce providing growing
conditions are favorable throughout
the season.
Listed corn may be planted at less
expense, can be cultivated TO better
advantage than that surface planted,
stands dry weather. to a much better
degree and Is not so subject to lOdg'
ing. Listed corn is more likely to be
damaged by heavy rains and is more
subject to injury from moles and other
rodent pests than is surface planted
corn.
Surface planting necessitates plow-
ing Of ground. AS q rule, deep fall
blowing gives best results on most
soils, and as far as possible, corn
land should be fall-plowed and left in
q rough condition to prevent blowing
and soil erosion. Surface tiilage dur
ing the spring to develop plant food
and to prevent soil becoming too COM
pact is advisable and sometimes
necessary. The disc harrow alfalfa
renOvator and the spring tooth har-
row are excellent implements to use.
depending on the extent to which the
ground should be loosened. If fall
blowing is impossible, early spring is
the next best; the earlier the better
provided, of course, the ground is In
proper condition to pillow. Such till
age as is necessary to keep the ground
in good filth between plowing and
planting time should be given. This
will vary with the season and the
type of soil.

show that, as rule, the production
OF crops following year Of drouth
is above normal, even though the
rainfall is about the average. There
are two reasons for this:
First, because OF the limited
amount of growth made by the crop
as n result OF the dry weather, only
a portion Of the plant food developed
in the soil is utilized and, therefore,
some of 1t Is left over for the next
year; in other words, the ground has
had q rest.
Second. due to thorough drying
out OF the ground. It Is cracked deeply
and extensively, thus allowing the air
to get down into the deeper sub-soil,
all OF which tends to develop the plant
food to q greater depth than normal
and to put the ground into a better
physical condition when 1t becomes
well supplied with moisture again.
The drought OF 1918 was abnormally
severe and It's effect on the soil was
more potent than usual. The fall
rains were sufficient TO supply the
soil with an abundance of moisture
and, therefore, the ground is in splen-
did condition at present. II the sea-
son is normally favorable in 1911,
abundant crops should be produced
The extent of the crop, however, will
be largely governed by the factors
over which the farmer has control.
such as the preparation OF the seed
bed, the variety and quality OF the
seed planted and the cultivation given
the crop during the season. All these
factors are important and should
receive careful attention.
In growing corn, early preparation
of the seed bed will pay four years
out of five. The nature of early treat
ment will depend upon the locality,
the kind OF soil, and the way in which
the corn is planted. Since the meth
cd of planting governs. to large ex-
tent, the kind of preparation the corn
land is to receive, a discussion Of the
relative merits of surface planting
and listing is in order.
Surface planting is adapted to
heavy types of soil and to the portions
of the state where the annual rain
fall is over thirty-five inches. In the

sod of grass or growth Of weeds is as
Injurious to the trees as to any farm
crop, and the cultivation given should
be such as to prevent any undesirable
growth, and should continue until
the trees are Of sufficient size to
shade the ground completely. p
This size will be reached during
the third year. After this the trees
will require no cultivation but should
DO protected from, live stock and
from fires. II good cultivation is
given during the first and second
years the trees are out. there VIII be
practically no danger from injury by
fire. as the accumulation Of leaves
is seldom sufficient to carry a destrue-
tive fire.
The principal damage done by live
stock in addition to browsing upon
the trees results from trampllng and
packing the soil about the trees. The
trees in general demand loose son,

There have been booms in almost
