COLVILLE AND ORVIN BCRNSIDE Department of Agronomy University of Nebraska Many changes have taken place in agriculture since the "horse and buggy" days, but Uttle change has taken place in the row spaclngs for corn, sor ghum and soybeans. The traditional 40-to-44-lnch row spacing for these crops were originally selected for farming with horses. Yet the familiar work horse had prac tically disappeared from the farm today being replaced by modern tractors with lots of horsepower. While the 40-to-44-lnch row spaclngs were most satisfactory in the early days, they were not necessarily efficient from the standpoint of efficient crop production. Scientists have found that under conditions of adequate moisture, and equal population, corn plants that were uniformly distributed pro duced as much as 10 bushels more corn per acre than hilled corn. There are many reasons for the Increased yields obtained from narrow row spaclngs. Sci entists find that plants In 20- inch rows absorbed considerably more light energy through dis tribution of leaf area to Incom ing radiation. Plants crowded together in 40-lnch rows absorb ed much less energy due In large, to self-shading. Plants in 20-inch rows with 31.300 plants per acre wilted much sooner than equal populations In 40 inch rows. Weeds have been shown to severely depress yields of corn. Infestation of foxtail Increased by nitrogen fertilization, but the response was much less than Legal Notices NOTICE The Greenwood Rural Fire District will hold its annual meeting March 6. 1963, at 8 p.m. at the Greenwood Pump House.

Case County Judge No. 6138 Feb. 18, 25, March 4, 1963. that of corn. Yields of foxtail were reduced progressively as the corn population level was increased. The availability of nitrogen early In the season was suggested as an important factor In the successful competi tion of corn over foxtail. Scientists have concluded that soils low In nitrogen and with nominal lntestations of green or yellow foxtail, the application of moderate to heavy levels of nitrogen fertilizer would be more profitable than the use of costly herbicides to control weeds. Plant population, method of planting, row spacing and method of weed control were important factors In determin ing yields of Irrigated corn In experiments conducted in Ne braska during 1959-1962. Drill ed corn produced 14 more grain than checked corn. The highest yielding population, 23, 520 plants per acre, produced yields 12 greater than a popu lation of 11,760 plants. Maximum grain yields of checked corn were obtained at some 4.000 plants less than In drilled plots. The importance of plant population and of distri buting plants uniformly and singly within the row was evi dent as 23.520 plants drilled, produced 34 more grain (shelled corn) than 11,760 plants, checked. Equidistant spacing and weed control practices were funda mental in determining corn yields and weed growth. Single hand-weeded plants spaced equldistantly 20 Inches apart produced 39 more corn than the same per acre population (15.680) planted In equldstantly spaced (40-inch) hills of 4. The average grain yields from 20 lnch spaclngs were nearly twice that of similarly treated 40 inch spaclngs that had received atrazine. Weed yields were reduced In narrow row spaclngs due to earlier shading of ground sur faces. The effect of population of reduction of weeds in 30-lnch rows was also evident. Row spacing, when 20- and 40-lnch spaclngs were compared, had little Influence on weed yields in plots that recevled 2.4-D. Corn yields show that some type of chemical or mechanical weed control was needed until the time the soil was complete ly shaded by corn. In 1962, atrazine accomplished this ob jective fairly well as. evidenced by com yields from 20-1 n c h spaclngs that were equal to those of hand-weeded plots. Fall panlcum, a slightly later starting grassy weed was not controlled by atrazine. In 40 inch spaclngs where light was plentiful, fall panlcum made ex cellent growth and its affects reduced yields of corn. The yield components respon sible for grain differences In both experiments were barren plants and ear size. Ear size and the number of barren plants was Increased by any means Obituary Mrs. Howard Boyle Mrs. Howard (Goldle H.) rtwie former resident of Weep ing Water, died Feb. 10. et the hospital In Kimball, after suff ering a heart attack. Burial was at Kimball. Mrs. Boyle was born June 23, 1897, in Custer County, Nebras ka, She was graduated from the Weeping Water High School In 1919. She married Howard S. Boyle, June 17. 1920. The Boyles lived on farms near Weeping Water and Bradshaw, before moving to Kimball In 1934. Surviving are her husband; her mother, Mrs. Orpha Oil York: son. C. Morris Boyle. St. Louis, Mo.; daughter, Mrs. Doris Parker, Louisville, Colo.; brother, Laurence Giimore, Lincoln- three sisters.

Stover yields were closely as sociated with grain yields. High er stover and grain yields from 20-inch spaclngs cannot be over looked as they apply to silage production. Lodging, broken stalks and dropped ears were not a prob lem in either experiment during the years of this study. Plcker shellers and corn combines in association with drying equip ment that permit earlier har vest are lessening the Impor tance of these factors in the production of corn. Two broad problems associ ated with narrow row spaclngs are: Educational The need for and changes In cultural practices, such as proper use of fertilizers, herbicides. Insecticides, cultiva tion, and Irrigation must be Im pressed upon the minds of the farmer, and upon equipment manufacturers and agricultural scientists In order that the in tricate problems Involved can be solved. Machinery With some modi fication it U believed that much of the currently available farm equipment can be used. Un doubtedly some new, more effi cient equipment will be neces sary. Similar findings In soybeans, grain sorghum and Irrigated corn Indicate that any change in row spacing will not be made unilaterally In the direction of irrigated corn. The problems associated with narrower row spacing, have been proven by several Nebraska farm operators to be surmountable. Under the conditions set forth In these studies, yields of corn grown In narow rows were suffi ciently greater than those from the conventional 40-lnch spac lngs so as to make a chanje In that direction profitable.
