showed the fine average of 38.3 bushels per acre.

TOP-DRESSING the WHEAT-FIELD. ... If it comes through the 
winter looking weak, top-dress with 100 lbs. per acre of high-am¬ 
monia fertilizer. It quickens the plants to better stooling. 
Yes — it’s true. ... It takes more binder twine for a wheat crop 
grown from new Hoffman Seed. But — that’s more bushels for you!
