How to Make a Good Crop
of Corn.
Bjr D-. s. A. Knapp.
It is impossible io lay down rules
applicable to all climates, soils,
aud conditions ; hence good judgment
should always be used in
application ot any instructions.
The following suggestions can
generally be followed with proli
-':
1. We prefer deep tall breaking
* plowing) for coru.
2. It should be done with a
disc or sub-soil plow so as not to
bring to the surface too much of
the uu-aired subsoil.
3 In sections of very light
winter ramtall toe held should
b* disced or harrowed at once
after breaking, but where the
Winter rains art abundant the
breaking should be left in the
furrow.
4. : 1 no tall breaking was done,
c: mmeuce as early as conditions
permit in the spring: break 8 to
10 inches deep with a disc or
subsoil plow and cross plow
r nee with the same implements.
Then, whether tail or
spring broken, work the land
with disc or harrow aud continue
till the soil is fine as powder.
Repeat the process just
before planting. Pulverizing
with the harrow should be about
tour inches deep.

Bedding up for corn is always
advieablein territory of considerable
rainfall; with lighter pre
cipiration and good drainage

the better. In either case the
seed bed should be thoroughly
pulverized. Delay planting till
