In cultivating the corn crop, say spec ialists of the United States Depart ment of Aggiculture, use a two-row cultivator if possible. It consumes only half as much man labor as a one-row cultivator and only one-fourth as much as the half-row cultivator or double shovel. Cultivate when cultivation is need ed, but refrain when it is not need ed. Cultivation may be a waste of "B3 "1 Durham. 110 bel Hall (f Famne. Canl you th ?

ZN 18 Your O11ood Needs EZ13ft' NI out. A properly cultivated surface soil will send moisture, laden with plant food, up through the corn roots and stalks to make cars. Every weed in a cornfield is an enemy. It drinks up moisture and consumes plant food that should go to make corn kernels instead of weed seed. Destroy weeds when they ap pear. Attack them, if possible, in fair weather. You will then have the sun as a powerful ally. Evaporation pf moisture lowers temperature. A wet, evaporating soil surface is cold. A dry aoil sur face is warm. A loose soil surface dries quickly and the blanket of loose, dry soil then checks evaporation, drinks in sunshine, and becomes warm. Watch your soil-its condition should determine when to cultivate. Do not let cracks form. They are holes through which varuable moisture eseapes. Do not cultivate when your ground is dry or wet enough to form large clods. Clods tie uip plant food so that the corn roots can not use it. Wr.tch Soil and Plants. Do not waste cultivation. Cultiva tion may be actually injurious when soil is so dry and hard as to break into large dry clods. Failure to cultivate promptly when it is needed to prevent the soil from becoming cracked, hard, or weedy will materially lessen the corn yield. - In addition to wavchiing the soil, watch the plants. Their progress de termines how you should cultivate. While the plants are small, culti vate as deeply as the conadtion of the soil makes necessary. If your sced bed was not well prepared before planting, deep cultivation when the corn is smill is desirable. Get your, soil into open condition so that the corn roots can reach out for food. After the. plants become a foot~ high, shallow cultivation only should be given. The roots have spread out close undl~er the surface oif the soil and wvould he injured by deep) cultivation. INever cultivate deeply close to corn pllants after they are a foot high. Such cultivation wvill break feeding roots andl cause injmury to the plants.

Corn is the main support of the ation. Grown in every State of the [Jnioh, it exceeds any other crop in icreage, production, value, and mul iplicity of uses. When land and labor were abun lant, production could be increased to neet increasing demands by planting nord acres to corn. But the demand 'or corn is still increasing while ivailable labor is decreasing. The nly wqy to increase production is to nake each acre yield more bushels of ,orn. The average yield of corn per acre n the United States is about 27 ushels. With good seed, fair soil, ind timely, careful. cultivation, the iield can be doubled, the specialists ;ay.
