TOBACCO CROWN
IN ANY SECTION
Commercial Value of Product In
fIuenced Greatly by Soil and
Climatic Conditions.
0vERPRODUCTliN IS MENACE
Certain Methods for Production Of
Various Types Are Recommended
by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.

The tobacco plant may be grown
successfully in all ATTITUDES from
southern Canada &c the tropics and on
great variety of soils, but the COM
mercial value of the product is influ-
enced to greater degree by the par
ticular soil and clit,atic conditions un-
der which the plant is grown than
is almost any Other important crop
These facts are so well recognized that
the tobacco industry has become high
ly specialized, and the trade regularly
looks to certain well-defined areas of
production for its supply of the vari-
Gus classes and types of leaf required
In these tobacco-producing districts
the necessary facilities for marketing
are available, and prevailing prices of
the cured leaf ara governed largely
by the relative surniy and demand and
by the quality of the leaf produced.
Increased Production.
Each important district produces a
tobacco of certain well-known charac-
teristics which make ii desirable for
special purposes of manufacture or ex-
port. Moreover. in practically all of
these districts the production can be
readily increased to meet any in
creased demand a: profitable prices.
For these reasons Efforts to introduce
the commercial growing of tobacco in
sections outside of the established
producing centers are likely to result
in failure, either :p.'ause the leaf pro-
duced is not quits right in type or
satisfactory marketing facilities are
not available. Furthermore, any de-
velopment of the industry in a new
section on large scale, which would
be essential for economical marketing,
would most likely lead to overproduc-
ton and, as a consequence, unprofita-
BILE prices. AS a matter of fact, over
production is constant menace in all
of the established centers of tobacco
growing.
Growing AID Handling.
The methods of growing and han.
ding the crop must be varied accord
ing to the type Of 'eaf which it is de.
sired to produce !ar the kind of to.
bacco is influenced cry greatly by the
methods of growing and handling
which are employed. Certain methods
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1921-01-07

OF which legumes are examples, are de-
ncient in the fernientable constituents
needed for palatable silage. On the
other hand, few crops, such as the
saccharine sorghums. have so much
sugar that unless cut at a more ma
ture stage they have a tendency to
produce sour silage.
Food Material From Corn.
In most parts of the United States
more food m6terial can be obtained
from an acre of corn as silage than
from an acre of any other crop that
can be grown. Corn is more easily
harvested and put into the silo than
crops like rye, clover, cowpeas. or al
falfa. and when cut for silage the max
mum quantity of nutrients is pre-
served. Experiments have shown that
corn. when sliced. lost 1916 per cent of
the dry matter, against 23.S per cent
when cut for fodder and cured in the
Held Moreover, there is less waste in
feeding silage than in feeding fodder,
Slice good silage properly fed is all
consumed.
Land Ready.
when corn is cut for Silage the land
is cleared and left ready for another
crop sooner than when the corn is
shocked or is husked from the stand

SYSTEMS OF FARM ACCOUNTS
Ready-Made Schemes Seldom Bring
Out Essential Facts That Farm
er Ought to Know.

Farmers, as rule, are highly indi-
vidualistic in their methods, and farm
business conditions vary widely. Ac-
cordingly, ready-made systems of farm
accounts seldom bring out all the facts
that the farmer ought to know. Sys-
TENS must be developed to fit each
mans requirements, and efforts TO
shape ones needs according to a pre-
pared system not based primarily on
these needs will almost inevitably re-
suit in failure.

SLIDING DOOR ON CONCRETE
Iowa Farmer Solves Problem by U.s.
ing Channel in Groove, Anchored
With Rods.

When sliding door is used at the
entrance of barn or machine shed
a groove between the floor and the
approach is often used as a guide for
the door. But when concrete is used
this construction is not satisfactory,
as the edges are Clipped off by the
wheels of wagons and other machinery
with steel tires.
An Iowa farmer has solved this
problem in a very simple and satisfac-
tory manner. He placed three-inch,
fcur-pound channel iron in the groove.
Holes were drilled through the sides at
intervals of two feet and rods placed
through them to serve as anchors.
The iron protects the concrete and
forms smooth guide for the door.

mARKET FOR PUREBRED slRES
One Method Is to Inaugurate Cam
paign for High Glass Bulls in
Place Of Scrubs.

There are two ways of helping the
market for purebred bulls. One meth
cd is to put on purebred sire cam
paigns, which will help to put pure
bred bulls in place of scrub bulls
throughout the country, and the other
method is to castrate the poorer indi-
viduals and place only the better class
of bulls on the market. Both methods
can be used to good advantage by the
purebred men, and both methods will
helm the live stock production of the
country.

that is that it's nature of growth is
such that it can be cultivated. Many
may think that this is a disadvantage
The cultivation kills weeds and keeps
the moisture from escaping. While
corn uses as much moisture as grain

the amount of moisture that evapor-

CORN HAS MANY ADVANTAGES
Growing Period Is During Hottest Part
of Year When Soil Is Dry and
Thoroughly Warm.

Corn has an advantage over the
small grains. Its growing period is
during the warmest part of the year.
The soil is then dried out and warmed
thoroughly. The days are then the
longest and the sun shines the warm

plant to make growth. From this 1t

Sweet clover is difficult to harvest
for seed because 1t natures it's seeds
unevenly. The best time to cut it for
seed is when half the seed pods have
turned dark, and any grain or corn
harvester will bundle the clover nice
ly. The straw is usually woody. but
stock will consume some of it. When
it is too coarse for feed it makes
mighty good material to pillow under.
