know and heed would help very
materially in combating the dis

WHEAT A DISAPPOINTMENT.
[Contihued from page IL

sown to wheat on or after October
ia will be free from fly unless they
migrate in the spring from neigh.
boring field where these precau-
tions were not observed.
Fields that were in wheat this
year and that are not intended for
that crop another year also should
be plowed. If possible. a late
sowing of cowpeas will make plow-
ing profitable and also will serve
to check the fly. The Hessian fly
will not feed upon legume to any
extent.
The most optimistic now are
compelled to admit that the yield
of wheat in Jasper county is lower
than even the most discouraged
predicted. Early threshing has
shown yields of three to five
bushels where eight to ten were
confidently expected as the mini
mum. One eighty.acre field has
four, stacks on it as its total yield,
last year giving sixteen and re-
garded as light.
Wheat not only S, light in yield,
but disappointing in quality. A sur
plus of moisture in the spring
caused the plant growth to be
heavy, but prevented the action of
phosphates. necessary to the for.
nation of the grain, and shriveled
berry is the result. Heavy dockage
has been experienced by many
farmers who have offered their
grain for sale, causing many to
hold it for feed, as the high price
of corn and mill feeds makes low
test wheat cheap feed at an ele-
vator price of IS cents or under.
Stacking is being done on many
farms, result of determination
to hold their grain for higher prices.
Where wheat is of good quality it
is probable that its owners will bin
1t and hold for an increase in price,
as the crop just harvested certain
lily justifies an expectation of an in
crease in price, which cannot be
held down even with the new crop
just at hand.
Many mills are threatening to
close down elevators. as the crop
is so small as to make their opera
tion losing venture for them this
year. The net result of Jasper
county's operation in wheat this
year will show loss and anything
that can be done to change the
situation to one of profit should be
carefully undertaken for the next
year.-Joplin Globe.
