GIVING THE BOY A CHANCE.
corn on his acre last year. He also
raised, on a piece of ground his father
gave him, 500 pounds Of tobacco, which
will probably net him close to $50. AS
q result Of the boys interest in the
corn-club work, his father used the
boys yield of last year for his own
seed and produced hrst-class crop of
corn. under unusually unfavorable con-
ditions.
The methods he followed are those
outlined by the State Experiment Sta
ton, which in regard to cultivating
corn are as follows:
Cultivation should be thorough; it
should begin early, and when neces-
sary continue until after the tassel or
even the ear appears. No rule can be
given for the number of times corn
should be worked; because, in some
cases four times may be sufficient, and
in other cases eight or ten workings
may not be too much; weather, weeds,
and soil conditions are the only guides.
If, after planting and before the
plants have pushed through the
ground, heavy rains form hard crust,
the field should be gone over with
spike-tooth harrow or weeder.
The cultivator should be started as
soon as conditions will permit, not
waiting until weeds show up. The best
way to keep the weeds in check is
never to let them get started, and the
nearer each working is done at the
proper time the fewer will be the num-
Der of civilizations necessary. Shallow
cultivation Is preferable at all times;
if, however, the ground is hard, or
compact and weedy the first cultiva-
ton should be deep and close to the
corn; but when the plants have
reached height of six or eight inches
the civilizations should be shallow,
running the shovels not more than
three inches deep. After this period
of growth the lateral roots spread rap
idly in every direction, soon ramifying
through all the soil between the rows
and the plants. Under normal condi'
tioas a large portion of the roots de.
velop near the surface so that cult
waiting four inches deep may destroy
80 per cent, more roots than three
inches deep.
Il must be borne in mind that the
destruction Of weeds is not the only
reason for cult1vating, breaking hard
crust to allow the afr to penetrate the
sof1, and to conserve the moisture is
often eually as important as killing
weeds.

now an annual event for the gathering
of farmers and their families from all
parts of the State to inspect the work
being carried on at these institutions.
The time selected-May 29-is singu-
larly fortunate, as much of the early
planting is out of the way, cultivation
is just beginning and the summer harv.

By this time, if the farmer has made
