An essential Of profitable farming
little appreciated in the past by the
general farmer is the development OF
strains Of seed corn we'll adapted to
local conditions. Heretofore the corn
grower has not practised rigid selec-
ton to find the variety best suited to
his environment He has not appre-
ciated that he could introduce into his
locality grades of corn which have
proved successful in other states and
then acclimate this corn to his local
conditions thereby gaining greater
yields.
1t is a relatively simple matter
where standard variety is grown to
select the best ears from the years
crop, cure them properly, store them
for the winter, and plant those show
ing the highest termination test the
following spring. What little extra
time the farmer consumes in these
operations is amply repaid by the
larger net returns he realizes from
his next crop. Field experiments com
pairing the character Of the crop re-
sulting from the use Of rightly select
ed pure-bred seed and tnat from SeeO
corn rs ordinarily handled on the
farm prove conclusively the vast SUI
periority Of the rigidly selected. pure
bred strains. Yields of So to 60 bush
els per acre resulted from use OF the
former grade, while returns averaging
SO bushels attended the use of the
latter variety.
Begin by Selection.
In the attempt to eliminate all poor
ears the best plan in the case of
cured corn is to lay out all the ears
in rows on the floor A best ear
should be selected as an ideal, SO that
in going over and sorting the corn the
ears corresponding most closely to the
ideal will be selected. All others
