A Word About the Seed Patch.-Then hope
that you have planted seed patch. and are going
10 watch 1t and take out the green tassels from
all inferior plants and then select the very best
for the next years seed patch and use the rest
for the general crop. thus advancing year by year
towards an ideal prolific corn plant
Much has been said by corn breeders about the
need for promoting cross fertilization to Increase
the vigor and productveness OF the crop. The ad-
vice is TO plant separate rows from series OF
ears. Then detassel each alternate n n so that
the pollen from tho other will cross the
pistiis or silks OF the dctasselled rows. This
would promote cross fertilization II we were sure
that the ears selected not close akin. But X
selected from the same field will know moth
Ing of the parentage OF any of the ears. The seed
is taken from detasselied rows.
A better way to insure crossing would be to
have two seed patches remote from each other.
Then take from each patch and plant In al
ternate rows. detasselling all the rows from one
patch that they will be fcrtiized by pollen
from the other patch. Then the next year re-
verse tho order and have the male parents from
tho other patch. This would be real crossing.
and Is what the stations might do WELL though
farmers generally will not take that trouble

corn planted successfully with n wheat drill by
stopping all but two spous at the proper dis

In an illustrated article in It's April
number Popular Mechanics says:
An italian engineer named signor
Caminada proposes to connect Genoa
with Lake Constance and float barges
over the Apennines and the
Alps by a ship canal project more stu
pendous and seemingly more imprae-
tlcable than the widest dreams Of Inn
aginative and impractical brains. Yet
Europe is impressed, and the scheme
has won the support Of the famous en-.
gineer, Senator Columbo, president Of
the Polytechnic Of Lombardy.
"signor Caminada's scheme is to
construct what might 10 called a
water ladder over the mountains with
a long series Of locks and canals. The
canal is composed OF two parallel
tubes or channels, one Of which is for
barges running down the mountains
and the other for barges climbing
over. In the locks the barges are
raised and advanced by the power Of
incoming water the vessels being kept
straight by two sheaves running on
rails above and below. When the ca
nal has to pass through mountain it
runs In two tunnels Inclined in oppo
site directions. The key OF the
scheme Is the fact that the water de-
sends in both tubes, but crosses from
one to the other alternately, 80 that
when a barge descends with the sink
Ing water In one tube, another barge
ia rising with the same water, which
necessarily rises in the lower section
OF the other! Further water from the
main reservoir carries the ascending
barge to the top and the descending
boat enters tho next tubular section.
The canals will be constructed Of
masonry and closed with iron gates.
me cost OF such a scheme Is esti.
mated at 100000, OOO."
