CHAMPAIGN, H.. April S.-The agricult-
ural ex Experiment. station has issued q bull
letin upon field experiments with corn,
made in 1891. which gives a great deal of
information on large number of questions
relating to corn-raisins. The experiments
were tried in the dark-colored prairie soil
common to central Illinois. The surface
soil is about eighteen inches deep. under
laid with yellow clay. No fertilizers were
applied. and in most cases the land had
been in corn in 1890 and had been pho ed in
the spring. Except in q few cases
the corn was planted by hand. covered
with q hoe, four kernels In hills three feet
eight inches apart each way. The season
was one of severe drought, the rain fall be-
lag deficient in the five months from May
To September 1.65. The average tempera-
ture was IS degrees. which is nearly the
average for period of years. Thirty-six
varieties were tested on iitty-twO plots.
About SO per cent. of full stand of stalks
was secured. and II per cent. of the stalks
result as found in 1SSS and $780, As was
tho case in former years. the kinds matur-
Ing about Sept. 20 gave larger average
yield than those maturing either earlier or
later
In 1891 thirteen early varieties averaged

iifty-seven bushels of air-dry corn to the
acre. Eleven varieties have been tested
for four successive years, and the average
yield has been seventy bushels per acre.

planting. The yield of corn and stalks in
creases with thickness of planting up to
three inches. at least. As the results of
four years experiments it is believed
that the larger yield of grain
makes food value of the total crop greater
where it Is planted at the rate of one kcr-
mel at about every six inches in tho row.
For four years the best results have been
had from planting between May IL and Is.
In two OF three years no material differ
ence was fonnd whether the corn was
planted In hills or drills. provided the land
was kept equally free from weeds Expert
ments show that no appreciate effects on
the yield resulted from cutting the tops
when in good condition for fodder. OF from
removing. as they appeared, the tassels
