PLANTING OF SEED "CORN. Depth. How deep should seed corn be plant- ed? inquires the Farm Progress. There are some mighty growers of corn who argue that it should go into the soil to a depth of at least two inches. There are a few men who plant as deep as three inches and a very great many both friends. The Pencil that satisfies old and young.

The subject combines in a decidedly novel manner the cultured atmosphere of artistocratic society circles with the rugged environment of the trackless wastes of Northwestern Canada.

This was worked out about three years ago by the Iowa experiment station at Ames, where corn was planted at depths varying from one to six inches. The results were something of a sur- prise to the advocates of deep planting. The depths of planting and the yields per acre shown by the Iowa station are as follows: ~ 1 inch deep, 52.8 bushels per acre 2 inches deep, 51.2 bushels per acre 8 inches deep, 62 bushels per acre )2 bushels per acre .9 bushels per acre 8 inches deep, 45.8 bushels per acre Some years ago the Illinois crop in- vestigators made a similar series of tests and came out with about the same general conclusions. Private experi- menters have had the same results. Of course the character of the soil has a lot of bearing on the question. A 1nose, ashy soil will stand deeper plant- ing than a close packed, clayey dirt that is inclined to cake and bake so badly that air cannot get down through it. The ‘stiff, sticky, gummy soils will close over the grains and hold them back from proper germination. A few rains that pack the soil surface may even prevent the corn from ever reach- ing the light and afr. Early in the season shallow planting is absolutely necessary. Very early in ed to a very shallow depth. For pos- sibly two inches the soil has been warmed to a degree that will make germination possible. Deeper than this there are the cold and the clammi- ness of winter. As {he summer nears it gradually warms to a greater depth and it i8 possible to plant more deeply and with good results. If it is a very dry spring deeper planting may be necessary. The mois- ture is down. pretty well in the ground. and corn planted and left lying in the dust of the first inch or two of the soil will lie there till it rains. Once or twice seed corn planted in a dry spring has been found lying in the soil un- changed, scarcely swollen at all, after two weeks. The seed must be brought in contact with the molsture, though the water can be brought up by working the soil about as effectively as we can bring moisture and seed together by deep planting. 'If you know you have done a_poor job of plowing and have a poor seed bed it will be best to plant deeply. Three things are always necessary for the germination of corn. These are warmth, air and water. Warmth and air are easiest to get near the soil sur- face, and in the average spring there will be plenty of moisture near the top of the soil. That is why shallow plant- ing makes the best showing. Novel Way of Growing Potatoes. Some gardeners in Denmark grow potatoes without taking any garden space whatever and grow them in con- siderably less time than it takes to produce a crop in the garden. The starting place is an absolutely dark place in a cellar, where not a sin- gle ray of light enters and where there is no ventilation. Such a place is dif- ficult to make use of, and this system of growing potatoes will prove interest- ing to all having a dark corner of the kind. A table of the desired size, dry earth to cover the top to a depth of two or three inches and seed potatoes are all that will be required. The earth can be dug up from the garden and 1aid in a warm place in the cellar until it has thawed and dried out. Cover the table top with this to a depth of from two to three inches and on this place the potatoes. Use perfect potatoes for seed, free from rot or disease. Wash them thor- oughly with a moist sponge and dry them carefully with a cloth, as there must not be the slightest trace of fun- i | gus to spoil the operation. If there are ‘We Want 50 Boysand Girls P | rows four inches apart. H any sprouts these must be cut off close g | without wounding the potato.
