ING was reported criticized for
not statin? that the tile drains
bem? placed wcie necessary
because the tiling done undei the
local conseivation piogram had
not been of proper construction,
therefore, necessitating the pre
sent undertaking Actually the
icpoit stated that the farmer
“had tiled a 50 acre field ten
ycais ago with concrete drams,
but they have crumbled —”
Bass said it was shortly after
the diams in question were laid,
that the recommendation for con
ciete drains was changed and
only tile is now used.

Seed Supplies
The practice of ordering seed
supplies seveial months befoie
they are needed is a good prac
tice The summer seeding of al
falfa should be made early in
August and winter oats should
go into the ground in about 8
weeks, followed by winter bar
ley and wheat Highest yields
may be attained by planting
certified seeds of adapted varie
ties of these crops Some sup
plies of these popular varieties
may not meet the demand and
the farmer will have to take
some unknown kind Growers
are urged to place their orders
early for these seeds in order to
get what is wanted The costs of
planting and harvesting will be
the same ®n an unknown variety
as on the best adapted variety
that is available Our Extension
Agronomy Guide may be of help
in selecting good varieties and
is available-without cost
