The financial gain from sowing the

Minnesota King, and in South Central
Minnesota, Minnesota No. 13 Yellow
Dent, and Rustler White Dent. The
two first named are comparatively
large-eared varieties, but with broad
and shallow kernels that mature early.
The standard varieties for Southern
Minnesota are Minnesota No. 13 Vel.
low Dent. Early Murdoch Yellow Dent
and Silver King or Wisconsin No. 7
White Dent. Except for specially.fa-
vored localities, it is believed that the
Minnesota No. 10 is the most univer-
sally adapted to general use. This va
riety produces ears averaging eight to
eight and one-half inches in length
and about six inches in circumference
The kernels are deep and the cob OF
medium size. 1t has been especially de.
veloped for heavy yield. Some strains
of this variety. developed in the ex.
IRENE southern part of the state, are
slightly larger than the parent strain,
and yield even better. The yield of
Minnesota No. 13 corn in Central Min
nesota will average fifty-five to sixty
bushels per acre when the crop is
grown on good corn land and given
proper care. Yields of eighty-fve
bushels per acre have been secured.
The other varieties mentioned meet
with favor in certain localities, and
are of approximately the same size
It is not considered wise to attempt
to grow larger varieties in Minneso
ia. While the Leaning, Reid's Vel
low Dent, Iowa Gold Mine and Iowa
Silver Mine will occasionally mature
in favorable seasons, with good care,
it is not safe to rely on them for the
main crop of corn. It is far better to
secure yield of forty-five to sixty
bushels every year than to secure sixty
to seventy bushels every other year.

This apathy, or Indifference, or what

one of the greatest obstacles in the
