SELECTION Of SEED CORN.
weight Of Kernel and Size OF Germ
as Affecting yiror of Plant,


There has been a diversity of opin-
ion as to whether the vigor of a corn
plant is or Is not governed in any way
by the weight OF the kernel or the size
Of the germ In the kernel from which
It grows. As q result Of experiments
on these points the following conclu-
sions are reported by the Maryland
experiment station:
First.-Experiments to determine If
the size of the kernels as determined
by the weight have any effect on the
vigor of the plant show:
(a) The heaviest grains do not nec-
essarily have the best terminating
qualities.
(b) Plants from the heaviest grains
attain the greatest height when sup
piled with moisture, but this need not
hold true in time of drought.
(c) f::ants from the highest bred seed
hold their vigor better than others dur
ing drought
I'D The heaviest grains do not nee
essarily revive most quickly after
moisture has been supplied succeeding
a drought
Second.-Experiment to determine
the relation between the size Of the
germ and the vigor of the resulting
plant show:
(W The terminating properties Of
the kernels containing different sizes
of germs may be equal.
(b) As the plants grow older the
largest, hardest and most vigorous
plants come from the kernels with the
large germs.
(c) The plants from the kernels with
the largest germs Withstand the
drought best.
These experiments are also consider
ed as indicating that in the selection
Of seed corn the following points
should be observed:
First.-That there is not only great
difference in the individuality Of plants
coming from kernels from different
ears, but from kernels Of the same ear.
Second.-High breeding is Of more
Importance than weight or size of
grain.
Third.-To insure a good stand and
large yield none bnt large germed
kernels should be used.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

The crisis in the railroad rate bill
which passed the House last week, will
come in the Senate. tomorrow. when the
Committee on Interstate Commerce
viii report the bill with their amend
ments.
An amendment to the bill that will
be reported to the Senate has been
drawn by Senator Knox and will pro-
badly be presented by Senator Aldrich
of Rhode Island, on behalf to those
Senators who believe that the right Of
the railroads to have any rate decision
made by tile Interstate Commerce Com
missi ON reviewed by the courts should
be declared in the statnte.
The House of Representatives passed
the Hepburn railroad rate regulation
bill last Thursday by vote of 846 to Z.
The bill gives the interstate commerce
commission authority when q rate has
been complained Of as unreasonable by
a shipper to investigate that rate, state
whether or not 1t Is unreasonable. and
II found to be unreasonable to name a
rate which is to be just and reasonable
and fairly remunerative, which is to be
the maximum rate charged. Sibley was
the only Pennsylvania member who
voted against the bill.
Much feeling was shown Friday when
the Senate Committee on Interstate
Commerce began consideration of the
Hepburn rate bill, which passed the
House Thursday. This measure is nov
the basis of legislation on rate-making
A wordy battle took place between
Senator J. p. Dolliver, Of iowa, the
champion In the Senate of the Hepburn
bill. and Senator Nelson A. Aldrich, OF
Rhode Island. supposed to be friendly
towards the railroads The two Senators
were exchanging some sharp thrusts
when Chairman Stephen B. Elkins, of
West Virginia, raped for order and
then adjourned the committee.
d. B. Heiner, collector OF iaternal
revenue at Pittsburg. was in Washing
ton, last week. Mr.. Heiner desires to
retain his position, and for this reason
he had conference with Senators P. G.
Knox and Boies Penrose and the Repre-
sentatives from Western Pennsylvania.
Up to the present time there have been
no candidates in the field against Mr.
Heiner. He has 40 eyed term of Office,
but may be removed at any time ct the
win Of the President.

Lincoln's Address at Gettysburg

-Four score and seven years ago our

Insurance Reform,

The developments in the investiga-
tion of the state insurance department
at Harrisburg go far to confirm the
claims of insurance men that there is
another side to the case and that what
ever abuses have crept into the manage
ment of the insurance companies are
more than equaled by the abuses foster
ed among those who are charged by
state governments with the supervision
of the insurance interests. That there
is widespread system of graft at the
expense of the companies, and that, in
many instances, the evil pressure so
exerted is the prime cause of the de-
moralization of the companies them
selves is more than mere supposition.
The manner in which those concerns
have been milked in the state of
Pennsylvania alone is a fair index to
their experience in every state where a
system of machine politics prevails.
AS matter of fact, under al honest
administration of public affairs, the in
surance companies, excepting. of course
concerns that surrender themselves to
speculation ard become the tools of
specializing syndicates, as in the cases
exposed in New York. have more to
gain by observing strict rules of honesty
and of legitimate business than by be-
coming accessories to corrupt methods.
Realizing this, the upright and con-
servative element in the insurance field
is disposed to lend all possible aid to
the plan which is attributed to Presi-
dent Roosevelt for the establishment of
an ideal system of supervision and in
spection in the District Of Columbia,
which the legislatures of the various
states may take as their model when re-
vising their insurance laws. Mean
while there should be no misunder-
standing as to the nature and distribu-
tion Of the evils that have been made to
reflect unpleasantly upon the insurance
business as a whole, and especially as
to the fact that decentralization of in
surance companies is possible only
where the governmental conditions are
demoralizing In an atmosphere Of
purity and decency graft cannot sur
vive.-Leader
