HOW BEET GROWERS SHOULD

(Ry X. NJ. Barr.)

(By Il. NJ. Barr.)
Fall blowing for sugar beets is very
important and maximum results de-

one to three tons of beets per acre in

extra effort should be made by the
grower to have all his beet land plow-

The farmer who has so much work
on hand that he cannot do this plow-
ing can afford to pay So to 81 per
acre to have it done, as it will be
returned to him over 100 per cent from
his beet crop.
Grain stubble land should be thor
oughly disced as soon as the grain is
removed so that the stubble will be
cut up and mixed with the surface soil
before plowing. By this method a
good compact, seed bed can he easily
made in the spring and the heavy stub
