HOW TO PREPARE GOOD SEED BED FOR CORN
By R. ThrOckmorton X. s. A CT

1t Professor of Soils, X. S. A. CT
cellent condition for cultivating the
corn.
When the corn Is to be planted
with the loose ground lister, it neces-
states the/plowing of the ground
AS a rule, 1t is best to pillow in the fall
to depth of about seven inches and
allow the soil to remain in a rough
condition during winter to prevent
blowing and aid in the absorption of
water. Early spring cultivation, with
the disk harroy, alfalfa renovator, or
spring tooth harrow is advisable for
the purpose of conserving soil mois
ture and liberating plant food.
When corn is grown west of the
section of the state just under dis
cussion, it should be planted with
lister. When corn is planted in this
way the soil may be listed at planting
time without any previous prepare
ton. However, this is not the best
system to follow. If best results are
to be obtained early preparation is
necessary. This may be done in sew
eral different ways The soil may be
disked early, blank listed early and
then the ridges split at planting time,
or blank listed early and then planted
in the same furrow, The early disk
ing of corn ground is an excellent
practice and gives good results
throughout most of the section
where listing is practiced If the sur
face of the soil is hard and compact.
it should be disked as early in the
spring as possible in order that it
may be loose enough to allow free
entrance of water and also to form
soil mulch. Heavy spring rains may
also be necessary in order to kill
weeds that start to grow before plant
ing time.

| " ANSAS plants, on the average,
IA over one million bushels OF seed
corn annually. Because OF the
large increase in the amount of wheat
seeded last fall, the acreage of corn
in 1914 will probably be below nor
NAL. The quantity of seed required
will probably be between 100000 and
900, 900 bushels.
Kansas produced in 1913 about
100000 bushels of corn, which is
only twelve per cent of the normal
crop. Very little of this corn is fit
for seed. Because OF the drouth and
heat, 1t did not mature properly and
even where yields of from five to ten
bushels to the acre were obtained, the
corn produced Is, as a rule, inferior
in quality and vitality, While much
Of 1t may terminate, 1t lacks the vigor
and vitality necessary to obtain a
good stand OF strong vigorous plants.
A large per cent Of the seed corn
for next years planting must come
from sources other than the Kansas
1913 crop. Probably the best source
of seed for any given locality is the
home grown 1912 crop. This crop
was above normal in quality, and
where the corn has been kept under
proper conditions, it will make good
seed. II the corn is of good vitality,
it will undoubtedly be superior to seed
introduced from other states or from
distant localities within the state. In
all probability, enough good seed can
be selected from the 1912 crop, to-
gether with little good seed OBJ
tanned in 1918, to supply the needs of
the state, but to do this the seed must
be selected at once and put ON the
market and properly distributed.
The Agronomy Department of the
Kansas State Agricultural College is
endeavoring to assist farmers who
have surplus amount of seed for
sale in finding a market and at the
same time help those who desire to
obtain the best seed for their respec-
tive localities Prior to January 80,
1914, there were listed with the Agro-
nomy Department over $4,000 bushels
of seed corn, some of which has now
been sold. All OF this is Kansas
grown corn, and as all parts Of the
corn growing section of the state are
represented, the list offers good OPP
portunity to locate seed corn adapted
to all sections of the state. Farmers
who have a surplus OF seed corn and
wish assistance in disposing of 1t
should notify the Agronomy Depart
ment at once, giving the name of the
variety, amount, and price per bushel,
and send at the same time small
representative sample for inspection
and termination test.
In many localities 1t may be impos-
slble to obtain home grown seed. In
this case seed should be obtained
that was grown as near home as posi-
BILE. Where corn must be obtained
from distances OF one hundred miles
or more, the locality from which 1t
had best be obtained will vary with
the portion of the state in which 1t is
to be planted.
In northeastern Kansas, there is
sufficient home grown corn of the 1912

BY X. |. Throckmorton, AsslSta
In determining how to prepare the
soil for corn, in order that we may
obtain the best yields with the mini
mum cost of preparation, it is neces-
sary to consider the influence Of the
different methods on the water abb
sorbing and retaining property Of the
soil and also to consider whether or
not the soil will be more subject to
blowing or washing If prepared in
certain ways.
With the diversified conditions
which exist in Kansas, it is obvious
that the method of preparing the soil
for corn which is best in one sec
ton of the state will be very poor
in another. Because of these condi-
tons, we have three systems of pre-
pairing the land for corn each Of
which is adapted to different part
of the state.
Surface planting is perhaps the
best system to follow in the eastern
part of the state, that is, east Of
Marshall and ChautauQua Counties,
where the greatest rainfall occurs.
However, on the extreme uplands Of
this section, listing may be available.
When corn is to be surface planted,
the land should be plowed during the
fall or early winter ami allowed to re-
main until spring in loose and por-
Gus condition so that it will quickly
absorb and retain any moisture that
may fall upon it.
Corn planted on the surface usual
ly terminates quicker and better
than listed corn because the surface
soil is warmer and usually contains
less moisture than the soil below
The second section of the state to
be considered is that portion extend
ing westward from the area mem
toned above to the western edge OF
Republic and Summer Counties.
Throughout this section of the state
the rainfall is not sufficient to make
surface planting advisable, yet the
rainfall is greater than that of the
western part of the state. In this
section conditions are very favorable
for the use of the loose ground or
disk lister. This implement leaves
the soil in loose ridges and in ex-
