PLAINS FARMERS GAN PROFIT
Adaptation Of Com TO Nep Localities
Discussed in Bulletin

In a recent bulletin OF the Nebras-
ka Station, reporting a series of ex-
perIments OF diffent kinds on corn,
T, l., Lyon makes the following state
ments, which have a most important
bearing on the adaptation OF corn to
a new locality;
when corn grown in one section
OF the country for a number of years
is moved to another section where
soIl and climate are different the
plant undergoes more or less change
during the first two or three years
before 1t becomes adapted to its
new condition,
The definite effect Of climate in
modifying corn plant is shown in the
following experiments Seed of two
varieties OF corn, Snowflake White
and Iowa Gold Mine, was obtained
from Iowa and grown in Nebraska
for two years, In the third year seed
was taken from this, and seed was
also obtained from the original
source in Iowa. These were all
planted in adjacent plats at the ex-
pertinent station, A marked differ
ence was shown throughout the ex-
pertinent between the different plats.
In the Snowflake White variety the
stalk from the seed that had grown
in Central Nebraska for two years
had decreased almost "a foot in
height, theear was S.S inches lower
down and the ear shank almost .
inches shorter, while the plants from
Nebraska seed had an average OF IL
fewer leaves.
"The weight Of both stalk and ear
was found to be heavier in the corn
The weekly herald. [volume] (Amarillo, Tex.) 1906-19??, 1908-10-08

grown from the seed just from Iowa,
but the proportion of ear to stalk
was higher in the acclimated corn.
The Nebraska corn averaged almost
200 square inches less leaf area,
which was to be expected OF plants
grown in a drier climate, The yield
OF grain was in, favor Of the home
grown seed.
similar conclusions were indicat-
ed from the variety Of tests,
or % varieties that were tested
by the cooperating farmers In var
ious parts OF the state, 10 were Ne
braska grown, 4 were Illinois, from
Iowa, / from Indiana and from
Minnesota. In these experiments the
significant fact was revealed that not
one Of the 8 varieties the seed OF
which was grown outside the State
ever took first or even second place
in the average results for the State.
These results do not indicate that the
varieties from the other States are
poorer seed than our own. Their
low yield is due to the fact that they
are not at first adapted or acclima-
ti2ed to Nebraska conditions.
THE lesson to be learned from this
is that to get the best results in corn
growing the seed must be home
grown, and grown not only in the
same state, but in the same
locality. The results OF the var
iety tests indicate that seed grown in
Eastern Nebraska will not do as we'll
in Western Nebraska as local vare-
ties, and vice versa, There should be
careful growers of seed in every
county in the state"
