the term. An active interest on the
part of the farmers and business men
of South Dakota and adjoining states
will help to bring this great educa-
tional exhibition to the Northwest.
South Dakota is in the corn belt
and the average yield of corn per acre
in South Dakota for the last twenty
five years has been greater than it
has in any state south of Nebraska,
Missouri, Kentucky and Maryland. It
is worth while to look at the map Of
the United States and the average
yields of corn as recorded in the Year
Book Of the department of agriculture
for 1912, and then decide that South
Dakota and the Northwest are in the
corn belt, and that the next orn ex-

Experiments Show Good Results In
Feeding Steers. ~
In Kansas it was found that in feed
ing steers with corn-and-cob meal and
alfalfa hay, the cost of 100 pounds of
gain was $5.13. With corn-and-cob
meal and sorghum hay the cost OF
100 pounds of gain ran up to $9.06.
The average profit per steer on the
corn-and-cob meal and alfalfa hay ra-
ton amounted to $8.98. The average
loss per steer with the corn-and-cob
meal and sorghum hay ration amount
ed to $1.66, a difference between the
two rations OF $10.64 per steer.
In Nebraska a comparison was made
between corn and prairie hay against
corn and alfalfa hay for feeding two
year-old steers. The results are the
average Of three experiments. The
cost OF 100 pounds of gain with corn
and alfalfa amounted to 1928. For
the same amount Of gain with corn
and prairie hay, the cost was 1882.
The profit per head from the corn
and Alfalfa fed steers vas $500, but
from the corn and prairie hay fed.

SIMPLE PLAN FOR
ROTATION OF CROPS
Ground to Corn Every
Third or Fourth Year.
INCREASED YIELD THE RESULT

Rotation Of crops means growing
different crops on the same field and
in some regular succession. One of
the simplest is to introduce a corn
crop every third or fourth year in
stead of growing the same crop every
year. Fifteen years investigation at
the North Dakota Experiment Station
on putting in a crop of corn every
fourth year instead of growing wheat
continuously resulted in securing
more wheat in the three years than
was formerly grown in the four
years. The total yield Of wheat on the
field that grew this crop continuously
was 206 bushels. The yield Of wheat
for the same period on the field that
had corn every fourth year and wheat
the other three was 233% bushels.
On another field similar to the last
except that the corn was MANFRED
the wheat yield was 1921 bushels,
or 56% bushels more than on the
field that grew wheat every year. On
the two last fields there we're also four
corn crops in the bargain. The total
return for the fifteen years from the
acre continuously in wheat was
$109.39, while the acre in corn one
year followed by three years Of wheat
returned $1,000, and when the corn
was MANFRED the returns went to
$4,000.
This shows the advantage that
comes from adding one crop as we'll
as the added returns in grain when
some of the crops are fed and the
n returned to the land. If the
animals on the farm are good ones
they will return a good deal more
than market prices for the feed con-
sumed. This means that the rota-
ton of crops will increase both yields
and profits.
To secure the best results from q
rotation Of crops live stock must be
kept. The rotation Of crops with live
stock balances up the farm operations
|. in many ways. The fertility is main
tanned; the labor is distributed and
can be used to better advantage;
horse labor is better distributed; the
income is made continuous; weeds,
plant diseases and insects are re.
duced; the returns are increased and
made more certain. If n thing
fails there are others to fall back on

OF GREAT VALUE IN
NUMBER OF WAYS
|Daiying In Relation to Profit
able Farming.

There are very few people who
know the discouraging conditions
which confronted the farmers of Min
nesota twenty-five years ago." says
Professor R. M. Washburn. "About
80 per cent Of the farms were mort
gagged, the fields had been cropped to
wheat, oats and fax until the soil
was tired and returned poorly, yet
the lands were being rated and taxed
as though worth more, while the farm
grown children were leaving for the
city.
1T had become painfully evident
that something must be done. Gull
tivated crops and clover must be
grown in rotation with the cereal
grains, to check both weeds and
chinch bugs, but what was to be done
with the extra forage produced.
Cattle are converters of rough stuff
of little OF no market value into fine
meat and milk for a Thus it was
found in Minnesota, just as in Jul
Eastern states and in older countries,
that cattle, hogs, horses and poultry in
balanced proportions and decently
handled, solved not only the problem
of what to do with pasture and
meadow grass and cheap grain, but
also aided nightly toward that Of soil
productiveness as we'll. The goal had
not been reached, however. The
price of beef was such that to keep a
COW the entire year for her calf only
was to gain little or nothing. She
must do more; she must yield fat for
butter making while her calf was be-
ing reared on her skim milk, clover
hay and grains. In this way the cows
that were available were able to so
increase the producing power Of the
soil for grain productiveness while
more than paying their way otherwise,
so that gradually the mortgages were
! lifted, houses and barns were painted,
the children became convinced that
farm life possessed something. worth
while, educations were secured, and
culture and content were restored."- -

MAINTENANCE OF FERTILITY

Stock Production.
AS we are dealing primarily with
the economic aspect Of live stock
production, It will not be necessary
to devote time to the question Of the
maintenance of fertility through live
stock as q source OF income. We
know that the production OF live
stock affects the farm soils In ways
other than through the use OF farm
manure. The grass crops which ~
grown add humus. the c1oVers and
alfalfa add nitrogen and deepen the:
soil, the corn ! other cultivated
crops clean and stimulate the land.
The production Of live stock makes
necessary the production Of the crops
which have relatively beneficial es
Efects. The grain crops following
them are correspondingly better, and
the farm profits are thus Increased

PERFECT EARS VERY RARE
BY A. N. HUME, A~gronomist, South
Dakota State College.
A Brown county farmer writes:

OdHOIa oIdSC S0IICSSs
A Brown county farmer writes:
II am writing to ask you to send
one perfect ear of large white
dent corn. I am going to plant it
separate and take good care Of it, and
detassel every other row next fall.
l think that in this way I will have
some fine corn in three or four
years.,
Reply by DR.. Hume:
I'm regard to a perfect ear of corn,
it would be utterly impossible for me
to send one, especially because w
have no perfect ear of corn here at
the Experiment Station, and, in fact,
I never saw a perfect ar. AS a mat
ter of fact, so far as o card ears
are concerned, we have no great num-
Der Of remarkably good ones here.
The ones we have were gathered up
from one place and another merely
to use as illustrations.
There is another why it
would not be worth while for us to
send a single a to anyone for the
purpose Of starting a separate breed
ing block, even if We had such an
ear. The reason is this:
IF one should take a single ear OF
corn and plant the kernels from it in
a plot entirely separated from any
other corn, where no cross pollena-
ton would occur, and later take seed
from this block, planting it the fol.
lowing year, also entirely apart from
any other corn, continuing in this
manner for several years, one would
find that his work resulted altogeth-
er in failures.
"The reason is that such close Sc
lection Of seed for several genera
tons would produce ~inbreeding to
such an extent that the strain would
degenerate.
"In order to get practical results
with corn breeding, I would really
urge you to make a start by selecting
several excellent seed ear from corn
which has already proved to do well
somewhere in your community. !
would, OF course, suggest that you
start with some unmixed variety.
"After you have secured say one
hundred nice ears Of such well adapt
ed corn, plant them by the ear row
method /. in a block by themselves
For practical, purposes, it may be
well to plant this breeding block on
one side Of your large corn field, pro
yiding, however, that the entire corn
field shall be planted with the same
variety Of corn as the breeding block
Harvest the rows Of the breeding
block separately and gather seed fol
the coming year from only the high
est yielding rows.
"Such directions for a breeding
block are rather brief, but If followed
out they will lead to improvement in
yield and quality Of corn"
