Agronomist Gives Tips On Soil Conservation Now is the season of the year when soil conserving crops should be seeded seed-ed to meet terms of the Agricultural Adjustment administration program, Professor A. F. Bracken agronomist with the Utah Agricultural experiment experi-ment station, advises Utah farmers. Discussing the seeding of perennials peren-nials to conform with the AAA program. pro-gram. Professor Bracken explains that crested wheat grass which he described as one of the highest yielding grasses both for forage and seed production, can be seeded either in rows of various widths or through all openings of a drill. In cases where the crop is sown for seed production, pro-duction, rows should be spaced 36 Inches apart. By setting the drill at the pne-bushel mark for wheat, approximately ap-proximately three and one-half pounds of grass teed will be sown to an acre. On farms where crested wheat-grass wheat-grass is seeded for forage or pasture purposes all drops of the drill should be left open, and, by setting the rate adjustment at one peck for wheat, approximately seven pounds of grass will be sown to an acre. With a firm seed bed this rate ordinarily will give a favorable stand of plants. Depth of seeding needs to be given careful attention, the agronomist asserts. as-serts. Experimental results definitely definite-ly indicate that grass seed should be covered, but It should not be sown deeper than one inch. For sections In which alfalfa has been found adaptable to dryfarm land such as In the northern part of Utah, it can be seeded profitably in place of grasses, Prifessor Bracken says. Alfalfa increases the nitrogen content of the soil, and this Is reflected re-flected in higher yields of wheat and significantly higher quality milling grain. To meet the terms of the AAA program alfalfa may be sown this fall at the rate of three to four pounds per acre and thickened if necessary early next spring at a higher rate to be certain of securing a good stand. On badly eroded hilltops or hillsides hill-sides a mixture of alfalfa, crested wheat, and smooth bromegrass has given favorable results, the experiment experi-ment station agronomist asserts. Pleasant Grove Locals Achievement exercises for the Manila Ma-nila 4-H clubs have been set for Sunday, November 20.
