WHEAT A HARD DRINKER

Every pound Of wheat requires an
average ef 4J0 to 500 pounds of water
to carry it from planting TO maturity.
Early blowing and frequent working
Of the seedbed helps to retain soil
moisture. A light narrowing or disk
Ing early in the spring c~ultlvates the
wheat and forms u soil mulch that pre-
vents the escape Of winter rains so
needed by the wheat when filling and
ripening. Experiment stations have
found that wheat, well supplied with
available plant food or growing on
rich soils, can produce a bigger crop
with less moisture than it can on a
poor soil or on one not well supplied
with available plant food. Wheat on
rich soils continues to grow even If the
supply of moisture Is scanty. Sup
plying available plant food to wheat
enables It to produce larger yields on
the same amount Of water. This is
especially important when the rain
fall Is below normal.
Organic matter holds water like a
sponge and releases 1t to the wheat for
termination.
