When To Plant Corn.
Men's opinions vary , some
xvh.it , as to the proper lime to
plant corn. Some begin as
rarh as tlu iO of April , it the
J tli < ' weather is at all permiss-
ib'r , while other * may be found
planting as late us June. Of
course , eillier extreme Is not
The season has a great deal
to do with the proper time to
planl. Whenever the days be-
tome warm and the nights are
> iot too cool Ihis kind of weath
er-remain * for a considerable
time , then it is time to plant.
The ground must b e warm
i nougli long enough to encour
age immediate germination and
s-peody growth. We think that
stunted corn is a * bad as a
s.tnnted pig or calf or colt.
Stunted corn is that which is
planted beiore the ground is
warm , ft lies in a semi-coma ,
tose state , germinates slowly ,
and finally sends forth a weak
stalk. To this spindling
stalk the warmth of the day
just about equalix.es the cool of
the night , and little growth is
made. Hut the corn that is
planted at the proper season
germinates quickly and vigor
ously , sends forth a strong
thrifty stalk which grows rapid
ly and gathers strength as the
days go by.
We once knew one of the very
best corn growers in our community -
munity who said that he would
not plant beiore the 7th of May.
And yet another who thought
that when the hedge leaves beJc
gun to come forth was the pro
per time. Hoth of these men
grew good com , and it always
seemed to us that according to
nature and the season , the coming -
ing of the hedge ought to be a
pretty good symbol of the pro
per time to plant , as out of this
source might be indicated the
development of the season.
Of course , the variety of corn
has much to do with when it
should be planted. There are
varieties which are hardy and
which may be planted early
with impunity. There are some
varieties of Yankee corn and
# qua\v corn which m a y be
planted with good results in the
latter part of April. Men with
a fore-Sight to growing good
hogs plant this kind of corn in
order to have an early corn for
late sunnner'feeding. This corn
ripens so early that it makes
hog feed much earlier than the
regular varieties of field corn ,
We think it is well for every
man who keeps plenty of hogs
to plont a few acres of this corn
for early feeding from the stalk
for forage and for the ear also ,
Summarising the proposition ,
we should rather recommend
planting a little lute than too
early. Get the ground in the
best condition , and this may
not be done quickly. The later
planting gives opportunity of
thoroughly discing the ground
before plowing it , and this is an
important thing. This applies
full as well to listing , Then
when the corn comes up , it will
grow rapidly , and will give you
a better opportunity to handle
the weeds with best results ,
The early planted corn that
grows slowly is soon outclassed
by the weeds which are not
easily retarded in their growth
because of bad weather. The
time to get the weeds is the
first time through the Held with
the cultivator , and if you can
not get close to the corn because -
cause of its being too small , it
will be difficult to get the weeds
which grow close in the row ,
and are in truth the most in
jurious weeds of -Nebraska
Farmer.
