Soil preparation is one of the most important factors. If at all possible the soil should have been cultivated once this spring to aereate and warm the soil and make it soak up the moist­ ure which arrived the past week. Care should have been taken to cultivate where necessary on the contour, and save much needless erosion so noticeable while driv­ ing the past weekend dowu the concessions. Corn is a funny crop, too much cultivation be­ fore planting can be as harmful as not enough. In this area of mixed farming too few farmers take advantage of that cheap source of nitrogen The Story In Saintsbury By MRS. H. DAVIS Mr. and Mrs. J.

Roots have no trouble making their way through that loose, crumbly soil alive with soil bacteria manu­ facturing the humus that makes soil granular, so that it can take in water and air. Don’t fonget the phosphates. All soil in South Huron is low in phosphorus. If you have not tested your soil, tests are free from O.A.C. Guelph. Be on the safe side anyhow, put on enough. Oh yes, and potash? If a soil test shows less than 100 lbs. of available potash to the acre the corn is almost certain to lodge. Borer, wind and other factors also cause this but experiments have proven time after time that lack of potash is a vital factor. So we suggest that you get a soil test of your fields. You might be lucky enough to grow 1D0 busehl of corn but try to keep it up not this year but every year. You would not think of feeding an unbalanced ration to a hog, why do it to corn.
