i
SITUATION IS NOW
A LITTLE EASIER
Agronomist Addresses State Farmers'
Co-operative Grain Assn. at Its
Meeting Held in Omaha.
The fall drouth in Nebraska will
seriously cut down the wheat pro
duction next year, it was predicted
yesterday by speakers before the
twentieth annual convention of the
Nebraska Farmers Co-operative
drain and Live Stock State associa
tion at the Homo hotel in Omaha,
scys the World-Herald.
Professor W. V. Burr, agronomist.
College of Agriculture, Lincoln, said
this fall had been the driest .since
1S73.
The morning session had to do
with the selection of better wheats
for Nebraska soil and the means
whereby the acreage production
might be increased.
"I feel it utterly impossible to
more than estimate wlmt the condi
tion of the wheat will be this spring."
Professor I'urr stated. . "It was 17::
since we bad ::s dry a fall und in
Lincoln the rain fall has been the
lowest ever recorded. The lack of
moisture has had two effects. First,
it has decreased the acreage from on
an average of one-fourth and second,
given us the poor condition of the
young wheat at the present time."
H. M. Lainer. director of the
Southwestern Wheat Improvement
association. embraeiT.g K'ltisa, Okla
homa. Nebraska. Colorado. Missouri
and Texat, with headquarters at
Kansas City. Mo., discussed the "I'os
ribilities of Wheat Improvement."
"The I'.Uf.lity of wheat in Nebras
ka can be bettered by the rotation of
croj-i." .Mr. Laincr declared. This
also can be assisted by diversified
f-rmirg. keeping the refuse on, the
U.ud. better and nuie suitably s ed
.iUd early preparation of the. s.o'l."
"Ti-sts have proved that the .quan
tify of wheat could also he .i-ucreasi d
from three to. seven bush.ols an aire
by using better s-eed. Comparing the
july preparation of the soil with the
September, I find the carihr prep
aration will incre:.je the yu-lj live
bushels to the acre," Mr. Rainer declared.
