Leave Thin Wheat Until Corn Planting Time
Winter wheat sown late last fall shows little growth and raises questions about potential yields. Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station data from 1920s and 1919 indicate late seeding can yield 11 to 34 bushels depending on date and conditions, with variability by year. The advised practice is to delay sowing small grains on fields where winter wheat stalled, and instead plant corn first. if the wheat stand is poor, switch to corn. Frank Boller of Fairbury visited Jansen on Sunday.

He notes refrigeration hinges on heat management, echoed by gas company ads claiming if it’s done with ice it can be done with gas.
