CULTIVATION.
As soon as the corn comes through
the ground a section harrow should be
run across the rows diagOnaIIy both
ways, that is, the second dragging the
harrow should go at right angles to
the first. This will clean every inch OF
space between the corn by killing all
the weeds and grass seeds that have
begun to terminate, and though hill
of corn will be pulled up here and there
and few stalks split open, the total
damage will be small, not nearly
enough to Offset the effects Of tho
roughly cleaning the crop and at the
sam time get away from that very slow
anticipated method Of cultivation
hoeing If the harrow tears up too
much corn this trouble may be obyiated
by slanting the teeth backward. This
cultivation may be repeated again when
the corn is 2 to inches high but the
first cultivation should be followed by
the side harrow, tooth cultivator or
disk. The corn will now be getting
large enough to need thinning and in
going through with the hoe to cut out
the surplus stalks there will be tufts OF
grass and weeds here and there that
will need to be cut out also. All SUBJ
Sequent cultivation should be Shallows
care being taken not to allow any i'm
plement to go down deep enough to
tear out any OF the little roOtlets
(feeders) that have begun to fill the
ground in everp direction. Keep the
top soil we'll pulverized with frequent
cultivation and in dry weather be sure
to stir the soil into complete dust
mulch which will check the evaporation
of soil moisture.
! By all means avoid laying.by the crop
with the urn.plow or any implement
that will 90 down and throw out the
middles and tear up the mass of roots
that have begun to overlap in the rows
as soon as the corn has reached a.
height of three to four feet. 1t some
times happens that prolonged rainy
spell will run for a spell will prevent
working the crop and thus allow the
grass and weeds TO get beyond control
of the disc and harrowS, in which case
it may be necessary to bar off and hoe
out the crop or else cover the grass by
using a deep plow to throw the dirt up
and overlap the grass, but this method
should be resorted to only in extreme
cases. The corn is naturally weak
from excess water and to tear away
many of It's feeders which the above
process of cultivation is sure to do, VIII

sometimes necessary however to pre-
vent a complete loss of the crop from

CORN CULTIVATION.

The first thing necessary in the
growing OF a good corn crop is tho.
rough preparation of the land before
planting.
Farmers often waste lot of seed
and good hard labor by planting in a
poorly prepared, cl0ddy soil, usually be.
cause of their haste to get the crop IN,
but this is false economy as a little
more time spent in disking and harrow.
ing the land would result in a far
better crop, besides much time and
labor saved in the subsequent cult,
walton. Those who have tried the
cultivation of upland crops have noted
how easily the weeds and grass and de.
StrOYed in a mellow loose soil, while
the same work on a hard, Cl0ddy soil
will have little effect on them. Good
preparation is half the battle in making
any upland crop.
PLANTING.
Ridging is generally necessary in
this section and is herein recommended
but care should be observed not to
throw up the beds too high. After
passing the harrow over the ridges tC
partially smooth them down the land is
now ready for the planter
Any planter that drops the corn
evenly and smooths the dirt firmly
over the grain will give good results
but when fertilizers are to be applied
along with the grain, planter that
distributes the fertilizer ahead of the
corn and covers it slightly will be
found preferable to those that drop the
grain and fertilizer together, which
often results in the grain being dam
aged by coming in direct contact will

plying commercial fertilizers is to nil
them into the soil week or ten day.

fertilizer containing nitrogenmay thel
