CORN Will SOLVE
FEED PROBLEM

The problem Of producing large
amount of feed will be solved to
some extent if some of the land
which For any reason cannot be
seeded to small grains, can be pre-
pared and planted to corn. In a
favorable year yields Of twenty to
forty bushels Of corn may be ex-
pected and at the present price this
would have a very nice return. It
is recommended that the corn be
planted in checks with the assump-
ton that weather conditions will be
such as to mature the crop. If
frost occurs before the crop is ma
ture it may be harvested for fodder
or silage. It. is poor economy to
plant corn thick for the sole pur-
pose Of producing fodder. A
smaller tonnage having a percentage
fof grain is Of greater value than
that which has none. Both Flint
ard Early Dent varieties may be
planted from May 18th to June LIST,
with a reasonable assurance. of ma
turing. Seed of all varieties
adapted to northwestern Minnesota
is available, and the Northwest Ex-
pertinent Station will aid in any
way in helping farmers 70 secure
seed Of such varieties.

THE CROPS AND
THE WEATHER

The weather since last publica-
tion Of the paper has been nice and
warm and farmers have been en-
abled to- continue their spring work
without any interruption whatever.
Seeding Of barley and flax and
planting Of potatoes is mostly fin
ished and the planting of corn has
begun. Grain fields are turning
green and the present outlook is
most promising. Man has now done
about all he can do and must
henceforth rely on a higher power
for favorable weather to grow and
mature the crop. While there is
plenty Of moisture IN the ground,
yet some rain now would do an
immense amount Of good and would
help n1eadows and pastures great
deal.
