CORN BELT 1S MOVING NORTH Theory of Timber and Rainfall is Invented—‘“‘Timber Here Be- cause of Moisture” Solves the Question. A. J. MeGuire, superintendent of the Northeast Experiment farm at Grand Rapids, contributes the, follow- ing article to the last issue of Farm, Stock and Home: The Crop Outlook. During the seven years the writer has been in the timbered sections of northern Minnesota there has been no crop failure. This year with re- ports from various sections of drouth and crops being plowed under the harvest in northern Minnesota and northern Wisconsin was never better. There is a good normal crop in ev- erything—hay, grain, root crops, corn and fruit. The men who have la- bored with trees and brush and stumps feel repaid. Their work in clearing up a farm is an extra price, but the greater assurance of a crop makes this uncleared land seem more worth while. The northern Minneso- ta farmer is a potato grower, and ey- ery acre of potatoes this season, with the evident yield and price, will in many cases not only pay the cost | of clearing the land but pay for the near doing likewise. Timber and Rainfall. The argument, “preserve the tim- ber and preserve the rainfall” is a great fact inverted. We got a great- er rainfall in timber sections, but not |so much on account of the timber. |The timber is there on account of the rainfall. The timber is evidence of abundant moisture and where ti- ‘her grows there is the greatest as- | surance of conditions that are favor- lable to the growth of agricultural | products. The stumps of trees should not be objects of discouragement to prospective settlers, but rather evi- dence of wealth—wealth in the | soil and climate. The most valuable | | farm land in the United States was) at one time covered with a dense forest, and the removal of the for- est was effected through hand labor wholly. Today through the use of | explosives one man can accomplsih \s much in one day as could he ac- complished in ten through the fash- ioned method. The amount of rainfall in any is the most important factor in agriculture. Stumps and stoucs may be removed, a run out soil may | be built up but a deficient rainfall is as yet beyond the power of man to improve. | The Progress of Corn. That the corn belt is moving norih each year is strikinly evident. The northern tier of counties have been laying no claims to ear corn, jWe | have said that fodder corn would do, iis enormous growth would suffice for the absence of mature | ears, but as the land has been clear- ‘ed up & rown a few crops of clov- er, and manured, the possibility of wing corn for grain has been man- . 23 and North- ature good corn unless frost comes unus- early.
