Cooperative tests made at the experiment station by the department of agricultural engineering and the U. S. Department of AgricuL im ture show that 99 per cent of tl corn stalks can be covered by using these attachments.

Only a slightly better job was done when trash guides, which were given wide publicity last year, were used. They are recommended for the expert plowman already using jointers, since the guides don't work satisfactorily without jointers on the plow. Another feature that aids to covering a high percentage corn stalks consists of covering the inside of the spokes in the front furrow wheel with sheet iron. This prevents the spokes from throwing stalks onto ground on a windy day.

Farmer Does Not Need to Buy New Plow Attachments Urbana, farmers need to buy special attachments for their plows to use in controlling the corn borer by plowing under corn stalks. Any modern tractor plow with a reasonable amount of clearance under the beams and between the plow bottoms can be made to cover the stalks satisfactorily." says R. C. Hay, extension agricultural engineer, University of Illi nois College of Agriculture. A set of large-size coulters 16 or 18 inches in diameter that are kept sharp, together with jointers properly adjusted and with a good point, are essential to clean plowing.

Although many farmers ob tained a set of jointers with their plows, relatively few have tried to use them, especially in turning under heavy trash-like corn stalks, Hay points out. Now is the time to get them out and use them. Plowing also can be improved DIXON TODAY- WED. Wednesday KICK UP YOUR HEELS AND laughs are running wi Id!
