PRODUCTIVE SEED EARS.

Sometimes we forget the difference
between good corn and good seed
corn. We all know that crib Of very
large ears might be a good thing to
have on the market yet be very poor
seed for North Dakota if it failed to
mature. How many Of us stop to think
that a poorer looking ear that has
done fairly well under adversely may
be more productive than the finer
looking one which had several times
I as much sunshine and plant food? Il
How many know whether the proper
shape of kernel or the proper shape
of ear has more to do with the pro
ductive power? Whether a rough
dent or smooth dent is more indica-
/, tive of high yield to come? Whether
ito choose long ear or short ear
land how much attention, if any, to
! pay to Smelling percentage? An at
i; tempt is made to answer some of
these questions in Bulletin No. 212 Of

Iture. :. & q. 5s. t..aa

length Of the ear in later crops. 90
Tapering ears yielded a little better
than round, cylindrical ears. (3) "A

ears decreases the yield per acre Of

There has been too much OF an
intermingling of the names OF good
roads organizations in Colorado
lately. Ever since the strenuous
fight in Pueblo last January when
southern Colorado won such a glor-
ious victory for the Santa Fe Trail
and Rainbow route. there has been
an intermingling of the names of
the Colorado Good Roads assOcia-
ton with the names Of others
which sprang up as a result of the
fight.
This bodies no good II the the
victory of that memorable conven-
ton is to be retained Each time
there has been mention of good
roads or of good roads meetings
since that time this combination of
associations is mentioned. Now.
there is no apparent ground for
fear that the representatives OF the
Colorado Goods Roads association
from southern Colorado are not
zealously guarding the best inter-
ests of this section of the state
and holding on to that victory for
the Santa Fe Trail and Rainbow
route. but as a matter of precaution
we woud urge them to be ever
watchful.
The subject of the national high
way from east to west has been re-
vived. Rather. It would seem. the
clearing of the political atmosphere
has made it possible for this sub
ject to come into the limelight
once more. The Santa Fe Trail
and Rainbow route has been offic-
Tally adopted by a regular conven-
ton of the recognized good roads
association OF Colorado as Colo
radios main highway across the state
