Two Questions. 
Query No. 1.—The iaaer circle represents the 
com plant; the or.ter circle, the manure or 
chemical fertilizers in the hill. The question 
wo auk is of wbat benefit this fertilizer can be 
to the corn plant when the roots radiate in 
all directions, as shown, extending from hill 
to hill, and row to row .

Query Nr. 2 . The parallel lines show the 
comparative rpaco taken by fertilizer drilled 
in v i:h wheat or rye. Grant that thi3 fer 
tilizrr assists in “ giving the plants a start,” 
of how much benefit is it to the older plants 
when the grain begins to form and the roots

extend from drill to drill ? It is, of course 
ea y to see that wheat is better fed by fertili¬ 
zers in the drills than is corn by fertilizers in 
tho hills or drills, for the reason that the un¬ 
fertilized space in the former is much less 
than that of the latter, the relative extent and 
ramifications of the roots being considered.... 
Prof. E. M. Shelton, of the Kansan Stat» 
Ag. College^ says : The Rural New Yorker 
must be considered the mod •/ agricultural 
journal. Its influence for good I know is very 
great.
