In the case of potatoes, beets, carrots, onions and other crops, the edl- ble portions of which must be removed from the ground, it Is best to harvest the crop, prepare the land and sow lhe cover crop. In the case of vetch and clover, it may be necessary to.inoculate. | especially if the crop has not be grown on the farm heretofore. Many farmers in the state are mow sowing cover crops; following the dig- zing of early potatoes, in sweet corn, tomatoes, cabbage, and other hoed crops. In fact cover crops are being sown in a variety of crops which are or will be shortly receiving the last cultivation. Such practical farming c¢an really be termed . crop insurance, insurance being taken out as a protection against loss. Land covered with a green crop this fall and winter will protect against loes. The cover crop when plowed down will add to or increase the soil (fertility. Therefore, cover crops are accumulative insurance.—A. E.

Extremely long shanks can_be avoided. thus making the corn stalks easier to handle. The ear itself should be clozely In- spected “as it may show certain physical defects - which indicate “inferfority for seed purposes. ‘The shank should be soundl and not discolored and should léeave a clean scar when broken from the stalk as the disease infectlon may extend from the stalk into the ear. The ear should be well formed and the ker- nels should be uniform in size and shape. Fxtremes in size are not desir- able as. the length of éar is directly re- lated to the time required for maturity. Easy, isn't it? Then try it once and eee how it doss work. - Most certainly after all the work of gathering the eas it would be ' foolish to forget to sto: where dry air will circulate freely about each ear.—J, S.
