Seed of Mesby Variety is sent Out--
 Farmers Are Asked fo Follow Western plan.

In line with the policy of the State Department of Agriculture to experi- ment es much as possible with corn breeding and the adaptabiiity of cer- tain seed to the different soils. Com missioner T. A. wilkinson yesterday sent out numerous packages of pro liiic seed corn known as the Mosby va riety to the farmers in various parts of the State. a
 Tn the letter which accompanies the shipments. Commissioner Wilkinson states that the corn is good variety and that the grower of this seed pro- duces annually from forty to sixty bushels per acre.
 ''The object of this distribution g says the Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries. @is to note any varia- tions of growth and yield of this corn on different soil types and in localities different from that in which it has grown for a number of years.
 We trust that you will give this an honest trial Plant away from other corn when convenient. Keep note of prepared and fertilized, the date of planting. thes mode of cultivation. etc.
 If you uiiderstand corn breeding, follow this plan and note results.
 We hope to get a report from each person as to bis method of planting, cultivation and results for publica- tion in our fall bulletin"
 The topic of corn cultivation and corn tbreeding has been "a live one in Alabama for many years and it is to determination of the Commissioner to suffer no let-up in experimentation on these lines so long as he has authority. The results in the Western States of Illinois. Iowa and Minnesota where careful selection of seed is practiced pretty generally double and sometimes treble the production of former years, have been noted.
