CULTIVATION FOR CORN CROP
Keeping Surface In Fair Condition and
Free From Weeds viii &c Found
Of Greatest Value.

In view Of the common belief and
practice that corn should be cultivated
frequently experiments conducted on
an Illinois farm are quite significant.
One field was left uncu,tivated; on
a second weeds were cut with as little
disturbance to the soil as possible; On
a third cultivation was given in the
usual way. The first had almost no
crop; the second gave 47.3 bushels of
corn; the third 42.9 bushels. In othe,
words. lack of cultivation was bette,
than cultivation provided the weeds
were kept down. The reason evident.
~ was that corn. being a surface
feeder. was able to get more plant
food on uncultivated soil. Similar re-
suits were said to have been secured
even In dry years.
While experience seems to indicate
that abundant cultivation is good 70,
most crops. with corn there is good
reason for believing that as shallow
ana infrequent cultivation as will leave
