*‘The Insurance Man”
The harvest is just beginning
in South Huron and a little
whegt was cut this week, Most
of the farmers are slightly dis
appointed in the wheat. The
crop has ample straw, but the
heads are nothing to blow about.
Many were talking what a
wonderful crop there would be
■to harvest but our guess is ave
rage will be down 5-10 bushels
to acre this year from rust and
lodging.
Many farmers are asking them
selves whether to grow the crop
again. The answer is “Yes, by
all means.” Wheat is sometimes
a headache to harvest, but this
is counteracted by the slack
time at seeding. As we have
mentioned before, in this column,
good crop rotation can do much
to up the yield. The older gene
ration, our grandfathers,
working horses, plowed their
older pasture fields in the late
June and early July because the
ground was usually dampened
by showers then (this year, too)
and they had a slack period in
which to plow anywhere up to
10 or 15 acres on the bOO-acre
farm. Believe it or not, this was
almost a necessity. Sometimes the
modern farmer
horses, under the hoot?, .does not
plan as carefully as his grand
father had to. The old chaps
though got the work done, and
without commercial fertilizers
grew some outstanding yields of
wheat. They did it by judical use
of manure and green crops and
management.
Now we are wondering if mod-
, ern methods of farming are right
or wrong. We do know-that too
many wheat crops are being
cashed. And they are not being
cashed through livestock. Wheat
today (at time of writing) is
only worth $50 a ton, subject to
grade and moisture Jess the cost
of delivery. Where’s the proft?
Forget the profit, it is not good
business nor is it good farm
practise.
Wheat in comparison to corn
as a feed is slightly higher in
crude protein, slightly higher in
carbohydrate (N-free extract) a
little higher in fibre. Corn has a
higher fat percentage of the two.
