Selecting seed Corn.

The proper time in which to select
seeds Is late In the fall or winter. The
reason for requiring this portion Of {
year for 50 dong Is because there Is
then no hurry. and the work can be
done better. The common practice Of
laying the seed corn aside 10 remain
until spring has done great damage to
the corn crop. as very often the ex-
cess Of imperfect grains Is such as TO
cause a failure Of termination over the

his seeds. but very few farmers know
the condition OF their seeds until the
time comes when they are required for
planting. and then the farmers are
too much hurried to do anything with
