Grain Drill Advocated For Higher Yields In War Time
Roy Thomas argues in Progressive Farmer that using a grain drill boosts yields and is essential for war needs. Trials at the Illinois Experiment Station show 6.4 bushels per acre yearly gain over broadcasting oats. a four year winter wheat trial near town produces 4.2 bushels more per acre with drilling. The single disk drill and shoe furrow opener perform well in prepared seed beds, and the double disk drill suits wet or sticky soils for alfalfa, clover, and pressed seed.
