Improvement ofcorn

"Uncle Henry" Wallace,is devoting a
good deal of space in his paper, We'll
laces' Farmer to the improvement of
Iowa Corn. He calls attention 10 the
fact that while the Iowa Farmer has
been improving his live stock for TWEEN.
ty years end more he has given very
little attention to the great Iowa crop,
corn. Among the many articles which
have appeared in Wallsce's Farmer on
this subject has been a series by Prof.
Shamel, of Illinois, the corn expert,
and these are illustrated by number
of photographs showing different va
r'etles OF corn, perfect and imperfect
ears, the most profitable to raise, etc.
The average Iowa farmer thinks he
knows as much about corn as anybody
does but we miss our guess if he can
not learn a lot from these articles in
Wallaces' Farmer.
In this connection we wish to say
that Wallaces' Farmer is one of the
best agricultural papers that comes to
this office. 1t is handsomely printed on
paper OF fine quality, filled with at
tractive illustrations, and IN addition
to Its regular features, it's editorials by

leading fairs, live stock shows, and
sales, agricultural meetings, etc. 1t is

tins. Organized labor; enlarged sta
