FALL WHEAT
Best Time for Planting Varies in
Different Sections of State.

That the proper planting time Tor
wheat is a factor which is not given
the attention il deserves is the opin-
ion of Prof. J. +. Cox, head of the
crops department at the Michigan
Agricultural College The tendency
in many sections of Michigan is 10
plant at such late date that the
wheat does not develop sufficient top
growth for best winterng. Tests
have shown that earlier paintings
give better results, early October be
ing usually too late to plant for pro-
fitable crops.
The following dates are given by
Professor Cox as safe planting times
for Michigan: Southern Michigan
counties, two tiers, September 20 to
October lst; Central Michigan, as far
north as Saginaw Bay, September Is
to September %; Northern lower
peninsula, north of Saginaw Bay to
the Straits, September 10 to Septem-
ber 20; Upper Peninsula, August %
to September 10.
1t is also important that rye be
planted at the right time. Rye can
generally be planted from Is to 20
days later than wheat with assurance
of good returns, but maximum re-
suits will be obtained if it is planted
during the periods given for wheat.
Late October and November plant
lngs do not compare favorably with
those planted at an earlier date.
preparation of the seed bed, treat
ment of seed, and proper fertiliza-
tion are all important factors in
wheat production" says Professor
Cox, but | believe that the planting
time is vital. If we fail to observe
1t, our other efforts will be wasted. -

ALMA FIRM HAS
THE CONTRACT
BartIing x Holmes Awarded
Contract by City for Paving
of Bridge Street.
WILL START IMMEDIATELY
Work Will BE Rushed and Is to BE
Completed by Wednesday,
October ID.

At special meeting of the city
commission Monday the contract for
the paving of Bridge street, north
from Michigan avenue for about
twelve hundred feet was let to the
firm of Bartling 4 Holmes of this
city.
1t had been the intention of the
city officials to have the work done
10y the city, it being felt that in this
way it would be possible for the city
to save money, but after an investi-
cation William +. Reynolds, city
manager, found that it would be a
difficult matter to secure a concrete
mixer and possible cement in suf-
ficient quantity to allow the work to
be completed by the city before late
In the fall, when weather conditions
might injure the paving.
AS result it was decided that
the work should be let to some firm,
which would be able to supply the
materials and machinery needed and
start work at once.
The firm of Bartling d Holmes
was one of the two bidders for the
work and agreed to start the work
Immediately to have it completed by
October 10. This will bring the work
to completion before heavy frosts
come, which might injure the paving
before 1t mas become thoroughly set
and should insure a pavement that
viii hold up for years.
