Kinds of Corn to Raise.
The Iowa Agricultural College al
Ames gives the following list of varie-
ties of corn for the State:
Reds Yellow Dent. average length
8 to 10 inches. average circumfe ence
TO ~ inches. average time to ma
ture 100 days: Leaning, average
length . to 10 inches. average circum-
ference to ~ inches. average time
to mature l25 to IDS days. Iowa God
Mine. average length ~ to S$4 inches,
average circumference 6% to "a
inches, average time to mature l2J
days; Legal Tender, average length
9la to 1Ol. Inches. average circum-
ference to inches. average time 20
mature 125 days; Boone County White,
average length 8 to 10 inches, average
circumference ~ inches. average
time to mature 100 days; Silver Mine,
average length Sal to 91a inches. aver
average time to mature 12O days,
Calico corn average length to 10
inches, average circumference I to ~
inches. average time to mature ia
days
These are the varieties that are gen
orally yrOwn in the State. although
there are several other varieties in
different localities in the State receiv-
Ing favorable mention. Among 'he
earliest Of these are LongfellOw's Vel
low Dent, Farmers Reliance, Pride OF
the North. and Minnesota No. ID; and
among the later varieties. Mills County
Prize. st. Charles White, Browns
Choice, Iowa Chopper. Iowa King, etc.
In our Judgment the Boone County
White Legal Tender. Leaning. and
Mills County Prize are better adapted
to the southern part of the State, say
as far north as the Rock Island Rail
road. Here again elevation must do
termne. The higher divides south Of
the Rock Island will not grow as carry
a corn as some of the river bottoms
north Of the Rock Island. The Gold
Mine, Reid's Yellow Dent. Silver Mine,
and Browns Choice will do well In
the territory between the Rock Island
main line and the main line Of tn,
Illinois Central, while the earlier va.
rieties are to be preferred north Of that
line and In the corresponding latitude
east and west.

Early Peas.

The first crop usually planted In the
farm garden is one of the earliest va
rieties of peas. On account Of tho
hardness of the plant no amount OF
cold weather will do much injury af-
ter the peas are once up. but when
planted extremely early part Of the
seed will rot in the ground, causing
many gaps in the row. Early in the
season usually there Is little nitrogen
in the soil and the plants grow very
slowly at first. A little nitrate Of soda
applied in the row at the time of SOW.
ing will hurry the growth OF peas.
The market value of the crop depends
largely upon its earliness The kinds
which do not require bushing are most
popular for farm use. The late kinds
often do not produce crop until warm
weather comes. and for that reason are
often attacked by blight. which may
