0RAIN-HAY MIXTURES
RETURN GOOD YIELDS

In experiments carried on at Boze-
man by the Montana experiment sta
ton with grain mixtures under irriga-
ton. 1t was found that grain-hay made
from various mixtures of wheat, oats,
barley and peas. sown at the basic
rate OF two bushels to the acre. yielded
as much or more in season than any
other hay crop tested except the hard
Ter strains of alfalfa, clover or verch,
Grain-hay mixtures are annual crops
and hence at a disadvantage in COM
petition with alfalfa or other perennial
crops.
The highest average yield Of grain
hay from any crop mixture was OH
tanned from combination Of oats and
barley. hut in general the three-crop
mixtures averaged slightly higher than
either the two or four-crop mixtures.
The oa,s-barley mixture ranked first
in the total yield of grain.

Of mature grain Is harvested. The
more important varieties are Minnesota
Ii and Silver King. Minnesota Is
yields well, is comparatively early
carries the ears reasonably high and
is quite free from suckers. Adapted
strains Of Silver King have been devel-
oped in Rosebud county and are being
generally grown throughout the Yellow
stone region.
Early Oents-Ths crop natures
earlier than the late dents by about
Is days. The ears are shorter, stalks
are finer. the leaf area is reduced and
the kernels are inclined to be shallow
and serni-dent. These early dents are
used through very large portion Ut
the state. The more important va
| rieties of this group are: Pioneer
White Dent, Brown County Yellow
Dent, Square Deal and Eiker's Yellow
Dent. The Pioneer White is perhaps
the most popular variety of this group.
Semi-dents-The semi-dents resem-
BILE both flints and true dents. The
ears are longer than those of early
dents and the kernels are rounded
These corns predominant In the third
region where they are grown largely
for fodder and silage, with an Occa-
sional grain crop. The semi-dents are
criticized 70 rtheir suckering habits,
hut earliness end high fodder yields
| have earned for them an important po-
sition.
The Northwestern dent is the leader
of this group and perhaps the leading
variety in Montana. Two popular
varieties are "Oscar WIZ and
"Amenia." Armenia has become popular
In Phillips county in recent years.
Other varieties are Minnesota % and
Minnesota King.
Late Flints-The late fints are Of
minor importance in Montana. Usual
ly they will not mature outside of Re-
gion ]. They can not compete with
the late dents in the more favored
sections. Mercer flint undoubtedly is
the strain deserving more attention in
| further trials. Other varieties are
Triumph, King Philip, Longfellow and
Smutnose.
Early F,ints-The Indians raised
early f}intS along the Missouri river
before the advent of the white men.
The corn is adapted to meet extreme
conditions of moisture. wind and SOIL
1t shows drawfish. bushlike growth
with low set ears. but it has been found
to be dependable. safe, high yielding,
heat and drouth resisting and an ideal
corn for hogging or sleeping off.
The popular varieties at present are
the Gehu and the Dakota White Flint.
Other varieties of early flints are the
Rurleigh County Mixed, Early Indian
Flfnts and flour corns. such as the
Ivory King. They will mature in all
Of the various corn regions Of Montana.

Corn as q crop Is probably growing
In popularity faster than any other
crop in Montana. Records show that
the acreage Of corn in Montana has
increased more than 1900 per cent
since 1910. Because of this growing
Importance of corn and because of the
limiting factors Of rainfall and heat
1t is well to consider corn growing in
Montana from number Of angles,
but especially as to adapted varieties.

belt. TO use the expression Of A. J.
Ogaard. Montana extension service
agronomist. Opposition to nature will
bring nothing but grief. Common
sense and prudence dictate that we
modify our ideas with reference to
methods and varieties to harmOnize
with the limiting factors in Montana"
In Montana Il relatively low number
of heat units shortness of the frost

pei the corn plant to make modifica-
tons from the commonly accepted
types of corn. Adapted types Of north
western corns are. therefore, charac-

smoother and more flinty kernels as
compared with the corn belt types
At present Montana type is more i'm.

In strains Of each variety is in many
instances greater than variation be-
tween varieties.
Seed Is important
Home grown seed will work toward
the sure Improvement Of corn varieties
In Montana. The Montana extension
service this fall will inaugurate a seed

to induce farmers to select and store
seed corn reserves sufficient for two
or three years in advance.

four hours. says Prof. w. +. Schoppe,
