cloud to be seen in the sky.
The barefoot boy is plainly in

l wish / could describe our
trip up the beautiful French
Broad. l will try to describe
some of it. 1t winds it's way
through great pine covered hills,
many of them hundreds of feet
high and then again you will pass
great towering cliffs, while the
river beside you is dashing over
rockfilled rapids, with here and
there a pretty waterfall tumb-
ling down the mountain side and
joins the river in it's mad rush.
But to fully appreciate it, you
will have to take the trip fol
yourselves.

Select Good Seed Com.


Editor Hustler:I wish to-
speak a word to the farmers of
Henderson countyabout the Sc
lection of their seed corn for next
years crop. as I am much inter-
ested in helping to build up the
agricultural interest of the State.
In making the selection, an
effort should be made in regard
to perfection of the grain and
the uniformity of the ear.
All ears should be, as near as
possible, of uniform size from
tip to tip. They should be filled
at each end as perfectly as pos
sible with the grain of uniform
size. The grains on the eaf
should be firm and solid. There
should be only one class of corn
planted on the farm to avoid
mixing.
Every farmer should make an
effort to breed a first class corn.
By so doing he will increase his
yield in weight and perfection
The careless way in which q
large number of our farmers are
now making their selections is
causing the corn crop of the
United States to rapidly deteri-
crate in both quality and yield
The United States Government
report on the quality of the corn
states the quality is two per cent
less than last year, and this has
been going on for a number Of
years until the situation is alarm
ing.
Every farmer should go through
his corn in the fall and make the
character and growth of his corn
a study. The characteristics
which mark the difference be-
tween a well bred ear and a mon
grel ear are as distinct and out
standing as high bred characterize
ILtics in animals.
In order that the farmer may
breed up his corn he should select
a piece of good land, one-half to
one acre, and select ears of uni
form type, cultivate well and
from this select a uniform type
for his next crop. By this meth
. cd he can. in a few years, In
: crease his yield fifty per cent
and raise the average yield in
North Carolina from only IL
bushels as it is now, to 25 bush.
