pared. In viesof the fact that your
grain lodged so badly, I would advise
you to apply at least 200 pounds per
acre of acid phosphate, which supplies
phosphorus, the kind of plantfood that
gives strength to the straw of the
grain. This will give strength to the
buckwheat vines and will plump the
buckwheat kernels. Silver Hull buck-
wheat is considered a good variety and
requires about five pecks of seed per
acre. Another good crop to use under
the conditions you describe would. be
rape. This can be sown broadcast in
rows. Rape requires about five or
six pounds of reed per acre if sown
broadcast, and three pounds if sown in
drill,
Question—A,J.W.: We expect to
nisei a silo 10x32 feet. Have six and
a half acres, about half of this field is
sand loam and the other half is clay
loam. We plowed down a heavy June
grass and timothy sod last year and it
was partly covered with manure. We
have covered it again this winter and
want to plant it for silage. How
should we drill the corn and how much
seed per acre? Would it pay to use tributing attachment. Cultivation
some commercial fertilizer; if so how
much and what analysis would you re-
commend?
Answer:—In planting corn for sil-
age, both drill and check -row systems
are successfully used. The cheek -
row system, which is really the hill
system, allows of cultivating the corn
ooth ways. If the land is not very
weedy the drill systemis satisfactory,
drilling .it in rows about 30 inches
apart. In drills it requites about 10
quarts to the acre. •
To make sure of the germination,
you would do well to buy the seed on
the ear and test the ears for germina-
tion. This can be done by taking out
six kernels from each ear, two from
the tip, middle and butt, numbering
the ear and placing the kernels on a
square of blotting paper or cloth, num-
bering the square the same number as
the ear. Place the cloth in a pan or
large phlite where you can keep it
damp and warm, and inside of a week
the kernels should have germinated
sufficiently to tell you whether the ear
is strong, weak or dead. Take the
medium and strong ears and shell
them out together and discard the
ears that show very weak or dead
kernels. It would surely pay you to
fertilize your corn. For this purpose
I would recommend the use of 200 to
300 pounds per acre of a fertilizer
and fertilizers are about the only
things that you can do to combat the
wire worm. I do not believe the dry
weather has had very much effect on
them.
Question—R. W.:—We want to use
commercial fertilizer on our bean land
this year and we don't know just how
much is best to put an per acre to get
best results out of beans. Also, which
would be best, -to sow fertilizer broad-
cast or in the hill with beans? Our
land is practically clay land.
Answer:—For fertilizing beans on
clay soil, I would advise the use of
from 200 to 600 pounds per acre of
fertilizer analyzing 2 to 3% ammonia,
8 to 10%phosphoric acid and 1 to 2%n
potash., This should be worked thor-
oughly into the soil when you are pre-
paring the seed -bed at least a week
to ten days previous to planting. It
can be spread with a lime spreader or
if you have a grain drill with fertilizer
drilling attachment, it is well to apply
it that way. The important point is
to see that the fertilizer is evenly dis-
tributed and thoroughly worked into
the soil. It is rich available plant -
food if it is worked into the soil where
it can dissolve so that the plants can
make use of it. It is not best practice
to drill the fertilizer in with the beans.

One farmer says that with silage
and clover and alfalfa hay he had
been able to bring a large herd of
dairy cows through the winter in good
couditicn, with fairly heavy produc-
tion and without much grain.
Where chronic dysentery is present
in a dairy herd, try washing the cows'
udders with a two per cent, solution of
coal -tar disinfectant before allowing
the calves to suck.
Evey heifer calf killed means one
less cow-. Without any restriction,
the sale of calves and cows for mea':
can proceed so far that there will be
a serious shortage of cattle, Already,
good .cows never were so scarce and
high.
Any falling off in the production of
live stock will be noticeable in grain
farming. Without plenty of stock,
soil fertility is difficult to -maintain

from the soil are more likely. It is
apparent that something must be done
to keep -the productive animals on the
farm.

As long as the teeth of a sheep are
strong='and in good working order, it is
reasonably safe to keep her.
The safety of the 'flock may be
greatly insured by calling up the
sheep every night and shutting them
into a tight fold. They soon get
the habit and are also more docile the
year around. A flock- 0* :.heap can
not be made too tame. A wild flock
is of less value and makes loss growth
and shorter fleeces than a quiet one.
Unless you intend to keep the•lan-d s
for home use, let the bucks go the min-
ute they are big enough. More money
in them now than there will be after a
while.
THIS IS SPRAYING TIME
Methods of Combating the Enemies of Plant Life in the Garden
As soon as potatoes are well up
they should be sprayed. The little
flea beetle begins operations as soon
as the plants are four or five inches
high and so do the potato bugs.
Whether or not potatoes have been
grown in the vicinity before, the bugs
are sure to be on hand early in the
season and crops can only be protect-
ed by spraying. Then, too, blight
must be checked by a spraying every
ten days or two weeks. Cover the
plants thoroughly with the spray, the
upper and lower surfaces of the foli-
age. •Vitrio is a good preparation to
use for this purpose or arsenate of
lead and bordeau may be used. If
vitrio is used ten pounds should be
mixed with fifty :gallons of water.
For asparagus, beans, other garden
vegetables, small fruits and rose
bushes, one pound of vitrio dissolved
in five gallons of water will produce
the desired results.
Place the required amount of paste
ni a pail and add cold water gradually,
slowly stirring until sufficient water
has been added to produce a smooth
milklike liquid. Pour this mixture.
through a fine wire strainer into the
spray tank, which has previously been
filed three-fourths full of clean water.
Cucumbers and melons should be
sprayed every ten days. Tomato
plants' should be sprayed as soon as
set out and occasionally as required.
