On sloping corn land try plant
ing and oultivating across the
slope where possible in order to
reduce soil washing. When corn
is drilled with the slope burrows
are made which are sure to in
crease washing. While checked
corn is usually preferred by the
best farmers on land that is not
subject to washing, 1t is usually
more important on rolling land to
cultivate in one direction only,
and that around the slope. The
greatest damage is done on steep
slopes because the faster the flow
OF water the greater the amount
of soil it will carry away. II you
double the rate of flow Of water,
it will more than double the
amount Of soil removed. A more
perfect application Of the prin.
ciple Of planting across the slope
is found in contour farming,
which is more fully explained in
Circular rs entitled The Control
of soil washing, recently issued
by the Missouri Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station at Columbia. -
