SCSs Lincoln Neb. His article
appears by courtesy of Crops &
Soils.
A MAJOR OBSTACLE to the pro-
duction of needed grass seed for the
plains and mountain states now
seems well on the way to removal.
It's removal is coming about as the
result of a greater knowledge about
the native grasses themselves. And
its removal is also coming about as
a result of better harvesting equip
ment
Turning to the first of these two
points, the seed collector or har-
vester must consider a number of
things.
The first question he must answer
is this: Is there enough seed per
acre to warrant the cost of harvest
ing? This depends upon the number
of seed heads present and the fill or
set of the seed.
Among wheatgrasses, wildryes,
needlegrasses, n bromegrasses,
fields which promise a good crop
look like field of wheat. In the
b1uestems and switchgrass, the seed
heads are fewer than wheat and the
plants produce heavy, leafy basal
growth.
Appearance Misleading
Don't ju &c from appearance
alone, however. It can be mislead-
/ ing. The collector should know the
actual amount of seed present. To
determine this, he examines the field
for uniformity of seed-bearing heads,
and he inspects typical heads for
seed content.
The collector can take composite
sample from representative spots in
the field. From this, he can deter
mine the proportion of filled seeds
to inert matter and weed seeds.
If he knows the purity of the seed
he is getting and the measured area
covered by given machine, then he
knows, by periodic checking, the
amount and quality of seed he il
getting.
This information is particular!
important near the close of the har
vest season. Loss of seed through
shattering then is likely to MAX
machine operations improbable.
Maturity Important
The stage of maturity at the be
ginning of the harvest has bearin
on the seed quality. Recognize
stages of grass seed development ar
milk, soft dough, hard dough, an
vitreous. These are much like tn
familiar stages in the ripening {
sweet corn.
Grass seed harvested in the earl
stages of maturity is poorly deve
oped, shrive1ed, and low in germin;
ton. Seed harvested at hard doug
or vitreous stage is plump, well d,
veloped, and usually high in germ
ination.
Whether to use one kind of ha
vester or another at the start of Il
season will depend on the seed m
turity of the grass.
If grain combine is chosen, muC
of the seed should be in the hal
dough or vitreous stage. For

EHectiOe Harvesting Of
Native Grass Seed
By Il. D. STOEZ

The amount OF equipment available
and the acreage to be cut determine
to certain degree when he can go
into the field.
May Not Be Ripe
Harvested seed is usually in all
stages of maturity and dryness.
Careful handling is needed to avoid
impairing seed quality.
Combined seed is relatively moist,
and it must be spread thin to dry.
Plenty of floor space is required.
The seed should be turned often to
avoid heating.
Seed driers equipped with heaters
and adequate temperature controls
have been employed successfully.
These will dry large quantities of
seed quickly without reducing the
viability of the seed.
More tly, driers without
heaters have also been used on
farms. They are slower, but they
are satisfactory for small lots of
seed.
Seed which is harvested with a
binder, header, or swather and
threshed from windows or bundles
is usually dry enough for cleaning,
storage, shipment or use.
The period of time a species of
grass remains suitable for harvest
varies. This length of time must
be taken into account by the col
1ector.
In the Southern Great Plains
James E. Smith, Sos Nursery mana
ger at Woodward, Okla, states that
for combine harvest, one should not
expect more than 10 days to weeks
for the bluestems, gramas, love-
grasses, Indian grass, and wheat
grasses. With binder, header or
swather, add about week.
Ordinarily, allot not more than
100 acres for each 5-foot combine
or about $50 acres for 70 to 14-fooi
machine. Swather, header, or binder
when they can be used, can cover
about so per cent more ground ir
the same period than combine O.
the same cut.
These figures are based on prac
teal field experience. They hav'
been found generally applicable il
the Great Plains.
Harvesting Machines
One of the major jobs in harvest
!, ing large quantities of seed has bee
to find machines to handle the larg
: variety of seed in question. Gras
| seed exists in all sizes and shapes
: The machine first to come int
f wide use for grass seed harvestin
was the ordinary bluegrass Stripe
v It is inexpensive, is economical
: operate, and gathers, for the no.
: part, only ripe seed.
h The bluegrass stripper doesn't g
: all the seed, and it cannot be az
= iusted to wide range in height.
spite of these limitations, it is be
: even now for such grasses as Tex;
e needlegrass and related species.
l. Since 1886, it has been found tn
the combine, with varying adjus
h ments, is admirably adapted for ha
d vesting most species of grasses. Cor

How to Damp Proof a Concrete Porch
By ROGER c. Whitmon

Question: We have a screen
porch on the west side of our
home with a 7-inch-thick con-
crete floor. This floor gets wet
in warm humid weather. We
plan to convert this space into
an extra room to adjoin our pres
ent living room. The porch
floor is three-quarters of an
inch lower than the living room
floor. We plan on using three
quarter-inch plywood over the
concrete to bring it to the living
room level, and then put down
carpeting. How can I prevent
moisture from coming up through
into the wood floor? We have
been advised that cement could
be coated with some waterproof
ing and 15-pound felt paper.
Answer: The procedure is to
mop on a liquid asphalt damp
proofing then put down a heavy
asphalt saturated felt, overlap
ping the sheets about one-quar-
ter Of the width. Mop the damp

able? If so. how can this be
done?
Answer: Plaster that has be-
come loosened from the lath
cannot be held in place. It will
have to be removed and the area
replastered.
Muddy Hot Water.
Question: While using hot
water in my home it comes out
muddy quite often. although I
drain out the hot-water tank
once a week. What do you sug-
gest?
Answer: I assume the muddy
appearance of the hot water is
due to the rusting of the tank.
If the condition is caused by
rust, I suggest the installation
of a new tank and while this
is being installed it is advisable
to install a magnesium rod in
the tank to keep it from corrod-
ing. Or you can install a cop
