GREAT coRN-GRowING CONTEST

In an article in the current issue
} of Farm and Fireside appears an in
teresting account of a corn-growing
contest that is being held in North
Carolina, in which State, by the way,
the corn crop has doubled in the last
three years. Last years champion
is young man named Parker, who
got yield of 235 bushels per acre
James f. Bolts is another expert
! When IL is considered that thirty
acres OF corn per acre is fair yield,
the following extract from the article
is significant:
Thousands of North Carolina men
and boys are competitors in this
years contests. Bolts is again in
the race. Last year on forty acres
he got an average of 1873 bushels
lie intended to dynamite his land
last November, but did not do so
until the middle of March. He used
eightounce charges. twenty-five per
cent. strength, planted forty-two
inches deep and twelve feet apart
This thoroughly pulyerized the
ground to a depth of four feet. His |
corn, of his one type, Bolts Prolific, |
was planted April 9Th. A photograph |
made of this test acre exactly sixty /
days later shows remarkable growth.
On the sixth day of July this corn
was ten feet high, and was silking
and tasseling. giving wonderful pro-
misses of a corn II is planted in
rows four and one-half feet apart,
and from eight to ten inches in the
drill, whereas in 1909 the raws were
only forty-two inches apart The
number OF stalks Was tnen estimated
ut 10000; this year it is about
$4,000. 1t remains to be seen how
the yields will compare, as this sea-
son the stalks are large and better
Jared that they were three years ago.
For three weeks up TO July 9th the
Weather was quite dry, but this corn,
hen planted did not show any lack
# mositude and made a far finer
moving than thirty acres in field
djoining
'The interest in this test expert
lent is great. and farmers. both men
nd boys. are going to see the corn
rom far and near State officials
nd officers of the Agricultural De-
artment are this year to measure the
rop and verify the acre on which it

DoN.T MISTAKE LADYBIRDs FOR



A writer in the current issue o.
Farm and Fireside says it is the
plain duty OF ali Of us to get to know
insects by sight, SO that we may
know our friends when we see them.
Following is an exact:
ut is sign OF an up-to-date
farmer to know his friends by sight.
And because some insects are nusi-
ances, people have come to believe
that all insects are likewise. This is ?
great mistake: there are thousands
of insects whose life activities are
given over to helping mankind, and
very little credit do they get for ia
from the ignorant. Among these
beneficent insects are the ladybirds;
these have done such a good work
that finally they are being generally
recognized as friends. The case Of
the ladybird called the Vedalia Yves
so widely known that it has done
much to bring about popular under
standing of the work of these in
sects. In 1888 it seemed as if the
orange growing industry in Cali
fornia was to be destroyed chrough

TARIFF REVISION.
New York American.

The American is polling the new
Democratic Congress, not on the tariff
alone. but on reciprocity treaties and
preferential duties. which should be
linked with the Democratic tariff
policy.
The general tenor Of the answers
Indicates that at tho special session
which win undoubtedly be called by
President Wilson shortly after the 9Th
OF March-~the House win come to-
gether In mood TO treat the tariff
question with high spirited resolu-
tion wen tempered with moderation
There viii be no rampant free trade
ISM There viii be no disposition to
destroy the protective system. There
VIII be no reckless disregard OF q
legitimate business demand for pr1-
dence in the readJustment Of condi-
lions.
There Is every reason to expect that
tariff changes will not be made hap
hazard. but win proceed along logical |
and consistent lines. based on markets
rather than maxims
The principles on which the revision
should be made may be set down as
follows;
First--ThRt Il should not cause the
wage scale OF American working m
o be depressed by foreign competi-
ION
second-That the burden OF tariff
axes should be borne by the Injuries
ather than the necessaries OF life.
rhird-rhat thu kind OF protection
hat creates monopolies should be en-
rely done away with
Fourth--That reciprocity treaties
'ould be negotiated wherever such
eaties will stimulate commerce and
wer the cost OF living.
fffth--That the American merchant :
arine shah be restored to Its former
'portance and power, by system Of h
eferentiai duties. ST
