Planting ensilage corn last instead
Of first is an expensive mistake very
generally made in northern portions of
the United States. Strong terminating
seed Of ensilage varieties from farther
south should be planted two or three
weeks earlier than the home grown
seed, which is planted for the produc-
ton of grain.
Earlier Planting, Better Yields.
When large ensilage varieties from
Virginia or Missouri, for example, are
planted In northern states late in May,
they make a rapid, long-jointed, tend
er, sueculent growth, and are so green
when fall frosts occur that they are
heavy to handle, low in feeding value,
and make ensilage which is sloppy
and too sour. But when planted in
April, or very early May, they make
slower, harder growth, better with
stand spring frosts and summer
droughts, and reach a more advanced
condition Of maturity and produce
more grain than when planted later.
Fall frosts, not spring frosts, are most
to be feared.
Early maturing, homegrown varie-
ties do not need and may not be bene-
flied by unusually early planting, but
large-growlng ensilage varieties are
benefited. Though somewhat dwarfed
by very early planting, the large en-

sllage varieties will, by nature, make

early planting will yield more and
ripper grain and make richer and sweet
er ensilage. Early planting supplies
the age necessary for maturation and
reproduction.
Early Cultivation Warns Soil.
Ensilage crops In the North are
made much more profitable when these
two points are observed:
Judge the crop by its feeding value
and not by its height or weight, or the
amount of labor necessary to silo 1t.
Although earlier planting necessi-
tates earlier cultivation, it pays. Ear
ly cultivation dries and warns the
soil surface. If 1t remains wet II re-
mains cold, and the young corn can
not grow. Stirring causes the surface
to dry rapidly, absorb heat, feel warm
to the hand, and the corn to grow,
while near by. uncultivated soil will
remain cold, with corn at a standstill.
