tator. 1t finds support for this dictum
In the recent experiences Of the Lon

vide work for the unemployed. Work
was done last winter In the London
parks to the value Of $4,000. 1t cost
the central unemployed body to &C
complish this NO less than $2296. 100. In
other words. work which laborers
hired In the open market and paid
high wages could have done for $4,000
cost $257. 100 more when done by the
unemployed-that Is. by men who
knew that they would not be dis
charged II they idled and who had
no interest In their work. but only In
their wages. That. We venture to say.

In obtaining seed corn from places
at a distance II is always best TO Sc
cure 1t in the ear, because in this
form II can be picked over, judged
and all ears that are not suited for
planting may be thrown aside. while
IL II is shelled no such selection can
be made
The selection of seed corn by the
farmer from his own crop is generally
accomplished in one of three ways
First. by picking out the seed after
the corn has been cribbed; second. by
selecting the best ears while gather
ing. and third, by going into the field
before harvesting time and selecting
the most desirable ears. OF these
three ways my experience has shown
the last TO be the best, because bet
ter selection can be made when that
is the only aim in view and when the
entire plant, and not simply the ear,
can be considered. Whatever the
method. more seed than is really need
ed should be selected. in order that
second wedding out" of the poor
est ears just before planting may still
leave enough good seed.
On our farm we nave tried still
another method for obtaining the best
seed corn-namely. to grow 1t in a
special plot of ground We used the
following method: Take any number
Of selected ears-say so. for example
and plant them in so separate
parallel rows, one ear to the row.
This makes It necessary for the plot
OF ground to be at least 90 corn rows
wide, and 1t should be long enough for
the planting of about two-thirds of an
ear In each row. IL possible, this
ground should be as far removed from
other fields of corn as can be, to pre-
vent outside poliination. To further
protect from foreign pollen we have
found 1t good plan to take the re-
naming one-third OF the selected corn
and use It to plant border around
the breeding plot. Before the pollen
natures every alternate row is detas-
seled, to prevent self or close pollina-

All the seemingly good ears from

stalk, should be gathered from the de-
tasseled rows. Out of all these ears
first pick out the best ones for next
years breeding plot. From that re.
naming the best ears can be selected
for next seasons seed corn for the
main crop.
In regard TO the type of ear to Sc
lect for seed the following points are
essential: The main object in view is
the production of as large a quantity
OF grain to the ear as possible; the
ear should be cylindrical in shape,
about ten inches In length and 7h
inches in circumference. Both ends
should be well filled out with large
kernels. The rows of kernels. as we'll
as the kernels themselves, should be
closely pressed together, in order that
the ear will be compact and solid
Each ear can be readily tested for
weight by weighing the entire ear
first and then the shelled corn OBJ.
tanned from IT, The grain should con-
stitute from SIS TO 80 per cent. of the
whole ear. The kernels should be as
nearly uniform in size as possible, to
insure good, even stand; they should
be wedged shaped.
The vitality OF the corn should al
ways ways be tested. Improper dry
ing and storing away of seed corn
very often lowers the vitality OF the
seed, but II II is thoroughly cured and
kept dry no injury Is likely to take
place. We have found it very salts

tie It up in the barn, provided il is
