As soon as the land is plowed for the
fallow it should be packed. The disc
will usually do this work fairly well.
If the land has been plowed out of
‘sod, the discs should be so set as not to
te a r up the sod. It may be necessary
in some instances to w eight the disc.
The packing of the land should be
done the day the land is plowed. If
this is not done the soil will loose all
or nearly all its m oisture in a few
days, down as fa r as the plow went.
I t is g reatly im portant th a t such
m oisture should lie kept, not be lost.
The disc or packer is to be followed
by the harrow, so th a t a fine soil mulch
will be made on the land. This mulch
will prevent the escajie of m oisture.
It should tie m aintained until wheat is
sown in the fall, and until the open
aeason when w heat is not sown.
This mulch m ust be renewed a fte r
each considerable rain as soon as the
land g ets dry enough to harrow w ithout
the earth sticking to the harrow teeth.
The fallow m ust be kept free from
weeds. It should also be rem em bered
th a t the earlier the ground is plowed,
the more m oisture it will store up
against the tim e of need.
The w heat crop of 1913 will largely
depend on w hat ia done by the farm ­
ers in areas th a t are known as dry,
lietween now and the tim e for sowing
w inter w heat. If a large crop is to be
reaped in 1913, a large amount of land
should tie devoted to fallow. There is
no good reason why this should not be
done, as th ere is a large amount of
m oisture in the soil.
