when to Cut and Shock the Corn.

We have had several letters about
when to cut and shock the corn. Many
OF these indicate that our readers
have not read our statesments correct
ly. For instance, we are asked ii
when the corn is cut before it is ma
ture ii will not lose as much as when
the fodder is pulled, or If it will do
for seed
One of the reasons we advise to cut
and shock the corn. instead of pull
ing the fodder, is for the purpose of
getting our readers TO wait until the
corn is mature before interfering with
it, Do not cut the corn until it is
mature. This is about ten days to
TWO weeks after the stage OF develop
ment at which the fodder is usually
pulled. The corn should not be cut
and shocked until the shucks and the
blades below the ear have turned
brown. II cut as early as some peo-
pie pull fodder this will reduce the
yield as much as pulling the fodder
II cnt too early, il will not be as
good for seed. but we have never ad-
vised cutting the corn until it is ma
tuTe.
The results of test made at the
Georgia Experiment Station indicate
that when corn is cut at the right
time and cured in the shock. as many
pounds OF shelied corn are obtained
