been called to meet Saturday after,

JMadison.-That nearly half of the
seed corn in Wisconsin probably will
not terminate this year, is indicated
by tests made by Prof. C. P. Nor
CORD of the university. These tests
were made on 149 samples of seed
corn from seven counties. In one
day farmer can test ten bushels
of seed corn, enough to seed seventy
five acres. A saving of 81 is made
on every weak ear that he discovers
and discards, for ordinarily an ear,
all the kernels of which will germ
mate, produces eight bushels of corn.
