WELL-FED WHEAT PLANTS
RESIST INSECT ATTACK

Mr.. " Y Clark. county agricultural
agent of Marshall county Indiana, has
made some extended demonstrations
on the use of commercial fertilizer
combined with good seedbed for
wheat as preventative measure
against the attack of Hessian fly and
joint worm. He considers the use of
proper tillnge and proper fertilizers
the best method available for counter
acting the attack of these wheat pests.
Mr.. Clark says that his observation is
that the well-fed plant Is more resist
ant to attacks by both insects and dis
eases. Mr. Clark recommends ammonia
ated fertilizers for use on wheat be-
cause II is desirable to have ammonia
to force the growth OF wheat SO that
Ii will be better able to withstand win
ter conditions.

TWO CHANCES TO IN
CREASE THE WHEAT CROP
Growers May Have Both Profits as
Well as One.

Many wheat growers are overlooking
two chances of increasing their wheat
crop after 1t Is planted and thereby
getting larger acre yields and bigger
profits. This extra yield and profit Is
secured by top-dressing the wheat
early In the spring with available
plantfood. preferably In the form of
an ammoniated phosphate fertilizer.
This is fertilizer carrying ammonia
and available phosphoric acid that
gives the young wheat plants, weak
ened by the winter. sturdy start and
furnishes plantfood to make the extra
gain. When barnyard manure Is used
1T had best be applied as a thin, even
covering or topdressing early in the
winter. Whenever possible use the
manure spreader for this work, as
hand dressing Is not satisfactory be.
cause 1t leaves the manure lumpy and
uneven.
Fertilizer applied early in the spring
increases the crop yield in two ways,
first, by making the stalks and heads
already started grow larger and by
increasing the tillering or stooIing.
Every extra ''tiller" means an extra
head. Only few extra "tillers" to d
plant means several more bushels to
the acre. Ii the wheat Is top-dressed
late in the spring, that is after 1t has
made, a, good start, 1t will not '.tiller,"
hence the only chance to increase the
yield is by lengthening stalks and
heads, but by fertilizing early the
chances of increasing yields are
doubled.
For spring top-dressing, the broad.
caster Is better than the fertilizer
drill. 1t covers the ground more rap
idly and the inconvenience of keeping
the drill disks or hoes out of the
ground, or of removing them, is
avoided. The ordinary fertilizer drills
can, however, be satisfactorily used
for top-dressing IL care Is taken TO
fasten up the hoes or disks away from
the ground, or to remove them.
