Sprinjr rye should prove a valuable grain for some sections of Ontario next spring. It has several advant- ages v.htch recommend it as a bread grain. United States Department of Agri- culture Bulletin 894, produced by the Bureau of Plant Industry under the direction of Professor \Vm. A. Taylor, has just come to our desk. It con- tains a volume of valuable, clearly- stated, practical information. May we quote a fevjr of the ><'â„¢h points: 1. "Rye will grow on some lands not adapted to wheat. Sandy, ex- posed, poor, poorly prepared or acid lands will usually yield better crops of rye than of wheat." ; 2. "Rye is not so badly injured by i insects and diseases as wheat." . , 3. "Rye will endure more acid in the â- soil than wheat, and can therefore be use^ where wheat would require lira- ' in?." ! The author points out the great value of rye for bread making, rye for grain, as a feed, and rye a.s a cover crop, green manure and grazing crbp. i The buUetir. naturally deals with fall- sown rye. However, in increasing areas in the northern part of the United States, decided success is being realized with the griowth of spring- gowr. vyi' Especially will there be a place for a considerable amount of spring-sown rye in 1918. It might be well to note that another bulletin. No. 75(3, produced by the same de- partment. United States Department of Agriculture, deals with the culture of rye in the eastern half of the United States. Speaking of time of .needing, it says : ' i "Spring rye may be sown as early as spring oats, or^as soon a« the soil become warm and dry enough to be worked. It is u.s'ially sown before, either barley or whsat." Of course, rye responds to a well- prepared seed-bed, the same as other small giains. The author recom-, mends the use of 200 to 300 pounds per acre of fertilizer at the time the crop is sown. Under normal condi- ; tions, the use of fertilizer analyzing about 3-8-4 is recommended. As a rule, spring rye does not yield as heavily as other spr'ng grains. However, on experimental plot.s at Ontario Agricultural College the fol- lowing results were obtained: Spring Rye at Ontario Agric. College. 10 Years Average Yields.
