Five Hints For #
Corn Gro
You want to make a paying corn
crop this year, of course, here,
then, are a few of the things to do:
(1) Plant only on land which will
make at least a fair crop; you can’t
afford to try to grow corn in a field
which you know will not make
more than 10 or 15 bushels to the
acre, (2) Prepare the land well be¬
fore planting: don’t get in a hurry
and plant the corn among clods, or
on a hard-baked soil. (3) Use good
seed even if it costs you a little ex¬
tra. (4) Cultivate often and to a
depth of not more than three inch¬
es; keep the turning plow out of
your corn field. (5) Can’t pull reduce fod¬
der and so waste labor and
your yield of corn; get the full
feeding value of the crop.—Raleigh Farmer.
