Corn and Its Culture In the South.


OF the IA varieties Of corn tested at
the Alabama station in 1896, the larg-
est yield was made by ST Charles,
with 25 bu au acre, followed by Early
Mssto6cn % bu, and B!ount Prolific
% bu (Bulletin Is, J. T. Duggar).
The srring and early summer was ex-
ceedingly dry and in this respect the
season was unusual, csusing smaller
yield than conamor. Averaging many
tests of varieties made:.in Ssuthern
States, the kinds giving the larg-
est yields were as follows: Cooke
Prolific, Mosly Prolific, Calhoun Red
Cob, st. Charles Mammoth White.
Surprise and Blount Prolific. In
1896 seed corn from Illinois gave
larger yield than that from Alabama
and Georgia. In this dry season the
yields were practically the same,
whether the distance between single
plants in rows Ave feet part was three
or four feet. Kernels from The mid.
die of the ear of dent varieties resulted
IN smaller yield than grains from
he butt and tip ends OF the ear. This
result was. Confirmed by averaging the
relative yields obtained in IA tests
made at Ave experiment. stations On
sandy branch bottom land, the yield
of corn vas three bushels greater
where 425 los al acre of cottonseed
was used than where $50 lbs cotton
seed meal was employed, the amount
Of nitrogen al acre being the same IN
each fertilizer. On the same kind OF
land, which had borne two crops Of
weeds, the loss where they we're burned
instead of oeisg plo|ed under, was
2.S Du Of corn an acre. The yield of
grain WIS less when the entire stalks
.eere cut and cured before pulling the
ears and also less v Een topping was
2racticed than when the plans we're
not disturbed before gathering. Top
ping was Ia profitable and the profit
ia harvesting the entire crop was
doubtful here 90 shredder was avail
able 10 prepare TIE stalks for feeding
when corn was valued at 45c bu and
The stalks 25c 100 los. Stripping the
blades or pulling the fodder resulted
in an average. loss OF 2.9 bu an acre.
Only when fodder is high and corn
low can fodder pulling be regarded as
profitable. Hay making you'd gen.
erally give better returns thau fodder
pulling for the labor employed. If,
however, topping is postponed rather
later than the usual time for pulling
fodder, the yield Of the grain will not
be reduced.
