Twenty-Eighth Quarterly Report of the Pennsylvania Board of Agriculture: For July, August and September, 1885 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Twenty-Eighth Quarterly Report of the Pennsylvania Board of Agriculture: For July, August and September, 1885
J. Mcdowell, Of Washington county. I was glad the gentleman re ferred to the temperature Of the soil. One part Of my soil is limestone, and another portion Of it is a sandy soil, and we always find that the corn in the limestone ground is up a few days before the other, and makes growth much more rapid than that on the sandy soil. With regard to the product - how to Obtain the best results - I would like to ask whether they ever make it a practice to pull out all the poor Stalks in order to breed the very best corn. It has always occurred to me that we can improve our corn very largely by not planting it too closely, and when it is up by going through the corn and tearing out all those'stalks which are poor. We find that one of the great drawbacks in the crops of our sandy soil is the little ant. W'e have had to plant our corn over; we have planted our corn and found that this little pest injured it so much that we had to plant it again - some are complaining Of it now, and re-planting their corn. I would like to hear a remedy suggested to get rid of this little pest.
