PERCENTAGE OF GOOD CORN
HIGH IN 1918

Through the United States produc-
ed less corn in 1913 than in 1917, more
of it was marketable. according to
statistics recently compiled by the Blu
reau Of Crop Estimates, United States
Department of Agriculture. In 1917
there were 1905, 233, 900 bushels of
corn produced the largest crop ever
recorded, with the exception of that
of 1912, when 3,124,746,000 bushels
was the Nations yield but only so
per cent, or 1,837,728,OOO bushels,
were classed as marketable. In 1918
this country produced 1884, 900 bush
els Of corn, of which 82.5, or Ills, 764-
900 bushels were marketable. The
cause of the low percentage Of mar
ketable corn in the 1917 crop was due,
the crop statisticians say, to the UNI
favorable season. 1t was necessary
that year to plant late in the spring,
and the early frosts prevented much

An Important Matter.

Much emphasis is being placed this
year on the planting of pure clean
seed potatoes.
And it is well. For many reasons
In the first place, Itasca county Is
considerably ahead of many of the
other counties of the state in raising
standard varieties Of potatoes and
many of the other counties are look
ing to Itasca county for seed pota-
toes. Therefore, If the county is to
maintain its reputation as seed DO.
tato center it will be necessary to see
that the potatoes are kept clean.
Then there is the southern seed
market. The new seed potato certifi-
cation law will give the man who tries
TO market potatoes on that market but
little show on the market for south
ern seed, and those who raise spuds

One of the reasons some fig orch
ards have failed in the South Atlantic
and Gulf States is because the trees
have not been planted in suitable soils.
While fig trees will grow on wide
range-of soil types, it is essential that
the soil be well drained, well supplied
with moisture, and reasonably fertile,
says Farmers Bulletin 1881, recently
published by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture as an aid to
Zig growers. 1t gives directions for
planting and caring for figs, as well as
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1919-05-07
after they are 8 or 4 years old than

after they are or A years old than
when younger.
Before the trees are set the grower
should decide whether he prefers to
have fig trees growing from a single
stem or bushes with several shoots
starting from the ground. If the bush
form is preferred, the trees may be
planted somewhat deeper than where
the tree form is desired, since deeper
planting will tend to induce branch
ing from below the surface. In either
case the newly set plant should be
headed back. The exact height at
which they are headed varies with the
ideas of different growers, but from
IL inches to 3 feet above the surface
is usually satisfactory. Very low
heading will tend to induce the bush
form of growth.
Cultivation Needed.
The young fig trees have little
chance in competition with weeds and
other vegetation. This is one of sew
eral reasons why they should be well
cultivated. The young trees will not
thrive if moisture is lacking, and this
can be conserved by cultivation. AS
the roots grow close to the surface OF
the soil, tillage implements which do
not cut deeply, but which thoroughly
stir the surface soil, should be used.
If humus is lacking, cover crops, such
as the Iron cowpea or velvet beans,
both of which are immune to nematod-
es, may be planted with beneficial re-
suits, provided they do not rob the
trees of too much moisture.
Fig trees and bushes are pruned to
keep the tops open to the sunlight and
air, to keep them within bounds, to
remove dead wood and interfering
branches, and to make the harvesting
of the fruit easier. Some growers are
opposed to pruning, because the
wounds do not heal readily and pre-
mature decay may result, but if the
branches are cut close to the main
stem little trouble from this source
is likely 20 be experienced. Pruning
should be done annually during the
dormant period of the trees, prefera-
bly, after the coolest weather of winter
is past and before growth starts in the
spring.
The bulletin discusses diseases and
insect pests of figs, describes num-
Der of common varietie, and gives di-
rections for preserving and drying
the fruit.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1919-05-07

for that market will do well to see a
bout having their seed certified. The
requirements are that pure, clean seed
of the variety to be raised are planted.
Treatment according to the recon-
mendation of the county agent or
other authorized persons will probably
have to be given to the seed. Then
an agent of the state department of
agriculture must inspect the fields,
and for this is probably that free of
$3.50 an acre will be charged. The
law provides that at least three inspec-
tions-one at blossoming time, to de-
tect from the blossoms any varieties
foreign to the one that is being rails
ed in the field, one later 60 detect
disease, and one at digging time, all
three. and any other features that
may be apparent, to be looked for at
each inspection. There is no doubt
that the certified seed will not only
have the preference, but command
a much higher price, price well worth
the effort and trouble of going thru
with the details of certification.
In any event, no matter whether
a farmer is raising potatoes for the
eating stock market or for the seed
market, it will be well worth while to
see that only clean seed is planted,
that the seed is properly treated, and
that any indications of potato disease
creeping in be taken in time to pre-
vent the spread of the disease. It is
easy to check potato disease to an ex-
tent to make them negligible item if
they are taken in time and the spread
of the disease is prevented. But let
the potato diseases get a foothold.
and the farmers might as well say
goodbye to potato farming. 1t was
only by the stringent application of
measures to prevent the spread of
potato diseases that such states as
New York, Maine and other eastern
states saved for themselves the pota-
to industry, which in both the states
named. as well as numerous others, is
one of the most important branches of
agriculture in those states.
Let the farmers keep an eye out
to prevent the spread of potato dis
eases. The value of their crops, the
future value of their very farms, is
in jeopardy if they do not.

Under the amendment the private
or parochial school is still free to teach
a foreign language in the grades for
brief recitation period, providing
the time taken does not so interfere
with the standard curriculum that the
pupil cannot make the eight grades in
eight years.
But the pupil must study and rec
from his English reading books;
must do his penmanship work in Il
lish; he must learn to master Enghi
by the daily practice of written ami

study United States history as writ

ply and mathematics must be studied

Hostility to America may still live
in a school forced to use the Ameri-

is to love it. And there is no way to
study it well and understand it thor

Fertile Soil, Well Drained, With Enough
Moisture, Needed For Fig Growing

| for caring for the crop after it has

Figs are usually propagated from

growth. The center of the branches
used for cuttings is occupied by a
large pith, except at the nodes, or
points where the leaf stems are at
tached. In making cuttings the low
er ends should be severed just below
the nodes. They should be about s
or 10 inches long, the length being
governed largely by the vigor Of
growth and the distance between the
buds. If made in the fall they should
be packed in damp moss or moist sand
and kept in cool place until the wea-
ther is suitable for planting in early
spring, but if cuttings are made upon
the approach of spring they may be
Some Rules for Planting.
In planting the cuttings one bud
should remain just above or even with
the surface of the ground and the soil
should be packed firmly about them.
Under favorable conditions they will
take root and develop in one season
into trees suitable for permanent
planting. For the proper planting of
such trees the soil should be deeply
plowed and thoroughly prepared. 1t
is essential to give the trees a good
start. Though not infrequently in
jured by cold, the trees are commonly
considered less subject to winter injury
