Top Dress Small Grain
For More Feed Supplies
Now is the time for farmers to
top-dress their wheat, oats, rye and
barley planted alone or in combina
tion with Austrian winter peas and
clover, suggests W. C. Boyce, farm
agent in Franklin County for the
State College Extension Service.
"Franklin County has a large
acreage seeded to small grain with
fair stands," Boyce said. "Small
grain crops are somewhat late, and,
as a result, maximum yields cannot
be produced unless abundant fertili
zer is available to the plants as early
as possible. Sufficient available fer
tilizer will stimulate larger yields of
grain, hay and grazing. With the
present shortages of grain, hay and
grazing for feeding purposes, it is
more necessary than normally to in
crease home production of these valu
able feed crops in order to discon
tinue heavy purchases of grain and
hay from outside the State."
O. ' F. McCrary, District Farm
Agent, has advised that a report
made at a meeting of county agents
at Oxford indicated that an applica
tion of top-dressing materials Feb
ruary 15th had greater benefit to
ward increasing yields than applica
tion on March 15; also, March 15
proved a better date of anDlicatlon
tnan April 15. These results have
been demonstrated and observed in
field tests conducted in Franklin
County, Boyce said.
Some growers of small grain pre
fer to use only nitrogen as a top
dresser. Other farmers prefer to
apply a complete fertilizer with a
grain drill at the rate of 200 to 400
pounds of 3-12-6 fertilizer an acre at
the time lespedeza is seeded with
drill and also top-dress with 200
pounds of Nitrate of Soda. The fer
tilizer helps both the small irrain
and lespedeza that foil own
