Needs For the Thorough Cultivation
of Corn and Grain Sorghum In Valley
BY A. G. GRAHAM, County Demonstration Agent

free circulation of afr in the soil which
is essential to plant growth
Cowpeas or soy beans can be planted
after the crop is harvested and plowed
under late in~the fall, or they may be
planted between the rows after the last
cultivation These plants not only fur
nish nitrogen, but an abundance of Or
ganic matter The soils Of this valley
are lacking in organic matter and this
IS good means OF supplying it. The
heavy adobe soil should be supplied
with more organic matter, either in the
form Of green manure or barnyard ma
nure- This not only improves the text
ure Of the soil, but adds fertility. The
light sand soils should also be supplied
with more manure.
To those farmers that have planted
and are going to plant either corn or
the grain sorghums this season, I would
suggest that they give the plants
thorough cultivation, and not rely too
much upon the water making the crop.
An excess Of water is not only injurious
TO the plants, but the soil as we'll II
you have not been in the habit Of culti-
waiting thoroughly, try 1t this season,
and see If you do not get better results.
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1915-05-22

" ORDER to obtain an increased yield
Of corn and the grain sorghums, it
is essential that there should be at
all times during the growing period a
sufficient amount Of moisture in the
soil, but this is not the only factor that
goes to make up a large yield The soil
should be given frequent and thorough
CIVILIZATIONS. as this is not only a means
Of keeping the weeds under control, but
II gives the plants a better opportunity
Of obtaining plant food.
In irrigating corn and the grain sor-
ghums, the water should never be al
lowed 70 flood over the row, but should
be confined TO a water furrow between
the rows. Cultivation should be COM
menced as soon as the ground IS dry
enough to get a cultivator in the field.
The first cultivation can, as a rule. be
deep. but the subse quent civilizations
should be shallow. The food gathering
roots are near the surface, and if they
are cut off by the shOvels, the plants
are robbed Of both food and water. The
surface cultivation serves TO keep the
weeds under control and allows the

WHY THE HOME PAPER

Hav you ever asked yourself why you take your home paper, or
why 1t is necessary to have a home paper at all?
DO SO, and you will starta train OF thoughts that will be Illuminating
to you.
The big city daily comes to you and gives you the important news
OF M outside world, but you and the home people are too small for a
place in its columns.
About its only thought of you is the money it gets from you.
it you obtain much of your knowledge of the greater affairs Of life.
But it utterly ignores you and yours.
Hence the local paper, and likewise your reason for taking the
local paper.
You cannot exist without knowledge of the affairs of you home
community
You must know of the plans and of the work of the local authori-
tes, and you must know of the dorngs of the churches, and the lodges,
and of your neighbors, and Of the Community in general
You cannot obtain this knowledge from the big city aper but
can and do find it in the columns OF the home paper.
buy the big city daily because you must know of the progress
of the world, for your mind is developing day by dav and demands this
greater fund of information.
But your mind Graves even a more intimate knowledge OF affairs
that are vital to the interests of you and yours, and these things you
find only in the home paper.
To the great city paper you are but a single pebble upon he be,c,
a drifting sand of the desert.
But to NJ home paper you are one of u.s. a important factor in
the community a force with which to be reckoned.
A disrupted and dsintegratng community means q shrinkape and
loss IN property values and a stagnant public mind. Hence the home
paper has an watchful eye to the interests of the community and
OF yourself, or only IN the preservation of the community and of YOUR
self cal the home paper hope for a continued existence.
The home paper is YOUR FRIEND, and you know it.
you believe in the home paper and its ceaseless work for home and
home people.
Your interests and those of the home paper are identical, and Won
need it quite as much as it needs you.
And the man who recognizes the necessity for a community of inter-
becomes a builder, and not a destroyer.
