Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Massachusetts Crop Report for the Month of May, 1912, Vol. 25: Pork Making for Massachusetts Farmers; The Control of Cutworms This is the first number of the Crop Report, series of 1912. The form of these reports will not be changed from that of past years, but the scope will be extended to include notices of public meetings, fairs, new publications, and like things of interest to our farmers, so far as space will permit. We want our readers to take an active part in making these reports more and more valuable, and we welcome constructive criticism to this effect. The special article this month is by Dr. George M. Twitchell of Auburn, Me., one of our most popular farmers´ institute speakers, and widely known throughout New England. It deals with a subject of interest to every stock-keeper, namely, "Pork making for Massachusetts farmers." Progress of the Season. The Crop Reporting Board of the Bureau of Statistics, United States Department of Agriculture, estimates, from the reports of correspondents and agents of the Bureau, as follows: - On May 1 the area of winter wheat to be harvested was about 25,744,000 acres, or 3,418,000 acres (11.7 per cent) less than the area harvested in 1911, and 6,469,000 acres (20.1 per cent) less than the area sown last fall (32,213,000 acres). The average condition of winter wheat on May 1 was 79.7, compared with 80.6 on April 1, 86.1 on May 1, 1911, and 85.2, the average for the past ten years on May 1. A condition of 79.7 per cent on May 1 is indicative of a yield per acre of approximately 14.4 bushels, assuming average variations to prevail thereafter.
