SEEDLATE AND FEED
WHEAT 0F|GHTFLY.
Professor Grantham of Della
ware Experiment Station Gives
Methods to Prevent Damage
and Secure Large YieIs.

Late seeding of wheat has been
recommended as the only practical
method of combating the Hessian Fly.
1t has been demonstrated without
doubt that this is the only way the
farmer can get at the problem. How
ever, late seeding means that the crop
is likely to go into the winter in less
vigorous condition than if sown at the
normal time. Ia erder to eeGnteract
this, some fertilizer sAONld be used to
cause the plants to grow more rapidly,
even though late planted.
Experiments at the various stations
have shown that late seeding will be
accompanied by good yields if the crop
is handled in such way as to make a
good covering for the land before the
winter sets in. This can be accom-
plished only by having the land in ex-
cellent condition of fertility as regards
plant food. Early plowing followed by
frequent harrowings will often put the
soil in a condition that will supply suf-
hcient plant food to enable the crop to
make rapid growth. However, this
can only be done on land that is well
supplied with organic matter and
naturally fertile. In other cases,
liberal supply Of available plantfood in
the form of commercial fertilizers
should be used.
Experiments by the writer have
shown that difference of two or three
weeks in the time of seeding may re-
suit in equally good results, providing
fertilizers are used with the late sown
wheat. This is a point in wheat cul-
ture that should not be lost sight of by
the farmers, as it means that the Hes
sian Fly can be avoided by late seed
ing, also that the late seeding will be
accompanied by good yields if the
proper fertilizers are used.-A. E.
Grantham, Agronomist Delaware Ex-
pertinent Station, in the Practical
Farmer.

Making Maximum of Profit

What kind of fertilizer will you use
on your wheat this fall? Myron A.
Bachtell, soil specialist for the Agri-
cultural College Extension Service,
Ohio State University, replies to the
inquiries of farmers by advocating the
use of a 3-12 mixture e per cent.
nitrogen and II per cent. phosphoric
acid) at the rate of from 200 to 300
pounds per acre where no manure is
added to the soil. Where clover sod
has been turned under for wheat or
where a heavy application of manure
is added the nitrogen may be omitted.
Early plowing with a carefully pre-
pared seed bed will aid the fertilizers
in producing the maximum of profit,

of Trade Members. Ohio Experiment
Station Bulletin 243 shows that high
quality wheat and large yields go to-
gether, thus giving the farmer double
profits. The experiments reported in
Bulletin 243 show yield of 8.45 bush
els of wheat per acre with 51@0 plump
and 49 per cent shriveled kernels,
where no fertilizer was used, against
a yield of as high as 34.15 bushels per
acre of which "a per cent of the ker-
nels were plump and but per cent
shriveIed when the wheat was fertil-
lied.
From 300 to 500 pounds to the acre
of a suitable wheat fertilizer produces
wheat that has nearly 100 per cent
plump, heavy kernels and at the same
time increases the yield. This means
double profits on the money invested
in fertilizers as there are more bush
els of wheat grading No. or instead
of Ne. 4 or 5, or lower.

Found Method By Accident

A farmer who accidentally
stumbled upon the way to COM
bot the Hessian Fly, is Oscar P.
Sell, of Berks county, Pa. Three
years ago, he found that an ap-
plication of chicken manure to
a portion Of his field not only
brought a larger yield, but also
reduced and almost eliminated
Hessian Fly damage. The fol-
lowing season he repeated his
experiment using fertilizer and
manure, and found the same re-
suits. Last year he tried the
same system for the third time
and is now convinced that he
will have very little trouble in
the future from the Hessian Fly.

e.s-.-.- = - nomicaI Gains, 90. .

When steers are taken from pasture
those that would be considered fair
feeders on the market should be fed

about two months, concentrate being
added to this ration to finish off the
animals r. .--'- .
One Of the most economical methods
Of feeding steers during winter. as
Enthusiastically experiments at the
Pennsylvania State college, is to- feed
during the first two months corn silage
and small allowance of mixed hay
or corn stover, sufficient to meet the
appetite, and two and a half to three
pounds Of cottonseed, meal for each
1000 pounds live weight daily. For
the last three months broken ear corn
at the rate of fifteen pounds for 1000
pounds live weight, or shelled corn at
the rate of twelve. pounds for 1000
pounds live. weight, dairy, should be
added to the ration.
This plan insures the greatest gain
in weight with the. least expenditure of
cash. Steers in a low physical condi-
ton at the beginning Of the feeding
period can utilize the .leughage to best
advantage. Since the markets do not
demand a steer of high finish this
method will produce good. marketable
animals, with the greatest economy

THE WISE FARMER.
There was man in our town

He knew that if he wanted crops
He'd have to fertilize.
It's nitrogen that makes things green,
Said this man Of active brain,
And potash makes the good, strong straw.
And phosphate pumps the grain.
But it's clearly wrong to waste plant food
On a wet and soggy field;
I'll surely have to put in drains
If I'd increase the yield.
And aft ter have drained the land
I must plow it deep all over,
And even then I'll not succeed
Unless it will grow clover.
Now, acid soils will not produce
A clover sod that's prime,
So if have sour soil
I'll have to put on lime.
And after doing all these things,
TO make success more sure,
I'll try my best to keep
From wasting the manure.
So I'll drain and lime and cultivate
With all that that implies,

BUCHANAN FOR CONGRESS.

The Pioneer will support G. B.
Buchanan of Little Falls for con-
gresham of the Sixth district at the
primaries to be held June 10.
We believe that he is the most
fitted for the office and that his cleo
ton will bring greater good to the
Sixth district than could be secured
by electing any other candidate.
We make the announcement Of
supporting c. B. Buchanan, only af-
ter considering other candidates and
proposed candidates.
Mr.. Buchanan is an active worker
along practical lines. While he can
in no sense be regarded as unprogres-
sive, yet the lines of his activities
are not the radical ones along which
one more indealistic and less prac-
tical might be disposed to travel.
Mr.. Buchanan has been tested and
tried as a congressman and his con-
gressional career was generally sat-
1o1oCIOly W IAC VI IllS COl1-
stituents of his district. 1t has
never been said of him that he neg
lected in any way the needs of his
district in general or was unmindful
of the7'wishes of his constituents.
Mr.. Buchanan is aggressive but
not extensively so. He is diplomatic
in his conduct and is possessed of
the greatest optimism. He is never
discouraged by defeat or adversely
but has the supreme faculty of re-
bounding after every blow.
Forty-two years ago Mr.. Buchanan
located in the vicinity of Little
Falls. He has always been leader
in public affairs and has been sue
cessful in business. Besides local
offices he has represented his dis
trict in congress, in the state legis-
lature in both house and senate and
for the past six years has been a
deputy United States marshal.
Mr.. Buchanan was born in Doyles-
town, Pa, April 1, 1851, a son Of
William and Jennie (Bennet) Buck
man, substantial farming people.
The Buchanan family came to Am
erica early in the 18th century and
the original ancestor made the voy-
age on the sailing ship Welcome.
Mr.. Buchanan went to Little Falls,
Mimi, in 1872 and took up a home
stead in Morrison county. He con-
tinued to buy land and between
1878 and 1906 practically all his
time was devoted to the manage
ment of his agricultural interests.
During that time he established the
town of Buchanan, prosperous lit
tie village, now of about 500 popu-
lation
In 1878 Mr.. Buchanan held his
first office, that Of justice of peace.
In 1881 he was sent to the state
Legislature and served two years in
the house. In 1888 he was sent as
senator and was in that body for IL
years. He represented his district
in the 5Sth and 59th congress and
while in Washington served as
member of several important COM
mittees.
Mr.. Buchanan since 1880 has lived
in Little Falls. For twenty years he
was engaged in the lumber business
and built a saw mill at Sank Rapids.
He was also one of the principals Of
the Little Falls Packing company.
Mr.. Buchanan should be returned
to the national congress.
