an adverse effect on the market in
Europe. Iceland is now the only

THE BARLEY ACREAGE.
National Crop Improvement Service.

Improvement
In 1915 we raised nearly 229, 900 900
bushels on 100000 acres. We did not
fare so we'll in 1916 on account of the
bad season. On seven and one half
million acres we raised 181,O0O,OOO
bushels. The price of barley will war.
rant large increase in the acreage
this year. Forty Eight million bushels
Of barley were matted and about 49,.
100000 Of that 100000 was sent
back in the shape of feed to the farm.
AS an economic problem, it would
seem that the high price of barley for
mailing would greatly Offset any feed
ing.value, If any, lost thereby.
The season for planting barley is
one week late, and therefore, barley
can be put in to advantage up to the
10th of May, and perhaps the 18th. It
is generally the best farm practice to
put barley in just ahead of corn plant.
ing. There is less labor in producing
a field Of barley than a field of corn
and a great deal less risk. If you are
short of labor on your farm It will pay
you to put in some barley.
If you put in all of your crops and
still have some land idle, both oats
and barley can be sown for hay or
green feed which will be immensely
valuable this year.

MONEY FOR FARMERS.
tNatIsaa, Crop Improvement ssrvios.l

lWAV0uSs NT0p Improvement 00VvS0UsJ
Many OF our farmers will not have
money enough to put in a maximum
crop. This should not be the case. OF
course, during this war excitement It
is pretty hard to get onyone to do any
thing but run around in circles. but
the greatest business problem We
have is to finance our farmers so that
they can get the maximum results for
themselves and for our community.
We believe that if the banks will ask
not established their credit. to make
a statement regarding what they want
to do with the money, that they will
take very little risk in advancing
whatever money any farmer will In
telligently use this year.
1t is true that the federal reserve
banks will re-discount farmers paper,
but they do it entirely on the credit
of the bank asking for the re-discount.
We believe that our business men
would be very glad to pro.rate any
loss that any hank would make In ex-
tending loans to any farmer WHO
wants to increase the production Of
his farm even though his land may be
mortgaged all that it can stand.
Especially in those counties where
county agents can advise and o. X.
the project, our bankers should have
no hesitancy in furnishing whatever
money may be required. There is very
little risk because the world is short
OF food and everything will be high
for this year and probably several
years to come.

STILL TIME TO sow BARLEY.
tMatlona, crop Improvement s.,v,c,.1

lHdt1ohdI Ctob Improvement Sefv1ce.1
The seeding time of barley should
be done later than that of oats or
spring wheat. as an early spring frost
is more detrimental to young barley
than to other small cereals. The sea.
son is usually a week later. In Canada
barley is sown up into June, but that
is not advocated in this country. Still,
the second or third week in May will
probably be safe this year.
A drill or broadcast seeder is com.
monty used and the barley is sown
at the rate of TX to 2 bushels to the
acre. Where It is desirable to seed the
land down to Clover and timothy, / to
~ bushels of seed barley as a nurse
crop is sufficient.
