. SEED CORN TALK
BY Prof. r. A. Moore.

During the Ave years work with
corn at the experiment station a few
things have been learned that are Of
vital interest to the corn breeder.
For Improvement of yield we should
observe careful selection of seed ears
when stalk study is permissible. The
ears should not be taken from the
stalks until well matured Seed corn
should not be dumped en- floor, bst
hung up in well.ventl ated room or
top of corn crib to dry, A well-ven-
tilated furnace room Is an admirable
place to cure corn. A small outside
building, we'll ventilated, with corn
racks arranged and shielded stove in
center of room, is preferable for dry
ing large amounts of seed corn. After
seed corn is well dried 1t will stand
cold weather without serious results.
The ear we desire should be cylfn-
drical and true to type; tapering ears
are Objectionable, as they do not
carry uniform kernels. Kernels should
b. Of medium depth and of practically
the same width from butt to tip Of ear.
with edges fitting closely from crown
to cob. Ears having 16 to 20 rows
are preferable for our latitude, az by
carrying that number of rows they dry
out more readily than IL carrying
more. A slightly roughened seed coat
Is desirable, and the corn should come
we'll down around the shank, which
should be Of medium size. The tips
of the ears should be fairly well filled,
but do not discard the ear II a few tip
kernels are missing when other good
characteristics are present.
Ears should be Of uniform size,
eight to ten inches In length, and SIX
to seven inches in circumference. Uni.
formity in size Of ear usually carries
with 1t uniformity in size Of kernels.
The secret Of good crops Is largely
In the seed. Only the best should be
T tainted No uniformity OF stand can
be secured unless seed has good Ees-
power. All corn of doubtful
character should be tested General
test should first be made by taking at
least two kernels from each of 20
ears and making test In simple plate
tester. II test Is from So to 100, stre1g
and vigorous, and corn was cured m
der similar conditions, the farmer can
be reasonably certain the corn ID al
right. Resort to the ear test, II ger
eral test is low, or II any doubt en-
lists. as It win amply repay for tjne
and trouble.

Trust company, who is alleged to have
stolen $96,317 from that company, and
Mrs. Laura Carter, the woman who
betrayed his hiding place to the police
after he had given her a part of the
stolen funds, were arraigned in police
court during the day: Runyan's spirit
appeared broken by the disastrous
outcome of his stealings and his de-
meanor was hopeless. He had passed
a sleepless night in the police station
and showed the effects of his worry
when subjected to the gaze of a curl
GUS crowd on his way to police head
quarters. Mrs. Carter bore her arrest
with nonchalance.
Runyan was arraigned on a charge
of grand larceny in having stolen $5,-
600. Mrs. Carter was charged with
receiving stolen property. Both waived
examination and were held for the
grand jury, Runyan in $4,000 bail
an6 Mrs. Carter in $4,000 bail
Neither Runyan nor Mrs. Carter were
able to give bail and they were taken
10 prison.
