COLLEGE EXPERIMENTS WITH SUMMER FALLOW That Just as large yields of wheat were obtained after a corn crop as fter summer fallow was demon 'trated in a series of experiments re '«ntly conducted on the Hegnauer field of the State College farm, which is largely devoted to rotation experiments. In view of the agitation in this country in favor of diversified farming, this conclusion is import . f n and the result is significant of the value to the state of the experi ments constantly being made at the college to help develop the land in the best way, to the utmost, and to W rve the state and its people. Crops that are not intertilled, it was proved, as oats or barley, when grown on summer fallow land, con siderably cut down the yield of the aucceedlng wheat crop, the yield of wheat after these grains being only ■lightly better than one-half that ob tained on summer fallow land. In tertilled crops, however, such as corn, roots or potatoes, can be grown on summer fallow land without detri ment to the yield of the succeeding crop of wheat. Where summer fallowing is prac ticed, it has been shown by experi ments on Field 3 of the college farm that land which is to be summer fal lowed should be plowed ln the fall or very early the next spring. The average yield of wheat from land plowed at these times was 49 bushels, while the yield from sum mer fallow land plowed in May or early June averaged 15 bushels per acre less. This difference in yield seems due almost entirely to the supply of available nitrates in the soil, and de pends only slightly on the moisture supply. Investigations in the irri gated districts have, in fact, shown that very frequently crops have been given too much water. Forty-two acre inches of water per season have yielded only 5% tons of alfalfa per season, while 30 acre inches have yielded seven tons, under similar conditions. Summer fallow land plowed early in April and followed by clean culti vation for the remainder of the sea son, seems to make available the largest quantity of nitrates and to lead to the best results when the sys tem of summer fallowing is followed.
