It is not in the SOIL or the fertilizer,
or the weather, nor In any other fac
tor. important though each may be.
The first essential is to breed up
corn for points with the same care
given to animals or fowls. Type,
quality, stamina, productiveness, etc.,
must be known, must be sought for
and improved with each season. 1t
Is not enough to pick mt perfect ears
or such as may be s%ctive at harry
est time. It is nc se,sary that one
shall know the plant that produced the
ear, and all the conditions of its
growth and environment.
There are many mysteries to be
solved In this question OF seed selec-
ton with the view to breeding up a
more productive type OF corn. My
own experiments In this direction will
indicate some of the difficulties to be
met with. In husking the corn in
the fall Of 1908 / came across just
one stalk containing two ears. It
was the first / had ever met with.
though upon inquiry find that farm
ers do frequently come across such
two-eared stalks. though they never
pay any attention to them, but throw
them In the crib with the others.
1t occurred to me, however, that 1t
would be we'll to plant from those two
ears and endeavor to raise a two
cared type. One ear was of good size
and the other about two-thirds as big
Weighing them the large one weighed
IA ounces and the small 91k ounces.
Inc large ear was an average ear
such as every stalk carried. Thus
this particular plant gave 91k ounces
more than any other plant This gain
would mean almost ton more to the
acre II the corn could be bred to
yield two ears. II would mean even
more II the two ears could be made 10
attain good size instead OF one be.
ing large and one small as In this
case.
The corn was Of variety called
yellow-fiint, obtained originally Of

butts and tips. The field In which
this was planted was fall plowed and
dressed during the winter with =

OF stable manure, as / keep such In \

seed was planted at one end Of the
main corn field. II should, Of course.
have had separate plot. and 1t NAV
be that the tendency to revert to one

TO the ordinary corn.

ity. However. OF the 616 stalks. all
from the two-eared .seed. only 1876
stalks produced a double ear. About
one-fifth.
Another interesting point, showing
clearly the tendency to reversion TO
remote ancestors, is found In the fact
that while the two-seed ears were OF
10 rows about rs per cent. of the
yield was of one eight-rowed cobs.
Although this variety of flint corn
will, show frequent ears of ~ and IA
rows, it may be considered properly
an eight-rowed type OF corn. Thus
we see that after throwing the sport

sufficient stamina in all the seeds to
reproduce like the parent. The corn
reverted not only to the one-eared but
to the eight-rowed type.
This is one of the mysteries that
will have to be solved, no doubt be-
fore a highly-productive two-eared
type OF corn can be raised with the
qualities OF the parent so fixed that
# can be relied upon to maintain a
big average yield. 1t may be due to
a weakness of inbreeding.
Some of the ears weighed over a
pound each, making over two pounds
to the stalk. II this could be aver
aged for an entire corn field 1t would
yield over ten tons to the acre.
Such may seem an exaggeration or
an impossibility, but 1t so only in
comparison with what we have been
accustomed to. Even II by judicious
selection OF twoeared seed each
year still the type could not be fixed
so as to produce even yields Of the
maximum amount, yet II 1t gave an
increase of 20 per cent. as It did in
my experiment, the return would be
a big one for what Is involved. It
does not imply added cost. in the pro.
duction, but only greater care and
interest In ones work.
Another thing to be kept in mind
In breeding up a type of corn for high.
er productiveness Is that the number
or kernels to the ear and their size
has an important bearing on the yield
Of grain.
A corn expert once figured out that
II the productiveness of corn could
be increased by only one kernel to
each ear, on the entire crop it would
mean gain of so tons of grain,
Even though the figures be not abso-
lutte there is no gainsaying that the
increase OF yield would be a very big
amount In the aggregate. The point
Is made very clearly in the accom-.
panying photographs which show
eight, ten and twelye-rowed ears Of
corn Each ear was exactly the sama
IN weight, being IL ounces each The
eight-rowed ear gave seven ounces ~
gram, and had cob Weighing four
ounces, the ten-rowed ear weighed mn

ear gave SA ounces OF grain. A dis.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER
 OF STUBBORN MILlICENT
By HARMONY WELLER.

Millicent stepped lightly from her limousine and into the foyer of the theater She was conscious of pre- senting an unusual picture in her big dropping hat and frock of palest mauve; there was just a suggestion of melancholy about Millicent that on- ly exaggerated her charm. To the man standing near the ticket office she seemed the embodiment of all that was lovely.
 Millicent looked up and caught his eyes fixed admiringly upon her and the color famed into her cheeks. Her fingers trembled slightly as she fum- bled for her ticket
 A frown sped swiftly across her face. The ticket that she had taken month or so ago was not in her bagl
 "We have been booked back for the last six weeks" the man told her.
 T did so want to see the play" she informed the man behind the window.
 AS she turned to leave the foyer her appealing eyes swept across space to the good-looking man whose gaze had brought the color into her cheeks.
 ''If you care to take this seat-I will be only too happy" he said in a per fectly impersonal tone.
 Millicent hesitated a second only then in hurried voice thanked him.
 And you are not robbing yourself?" she questioned
 "The seat will go begging if you do not use it." the man said and gave her the ticket
 Millicent reached down into the depths of her opera bag and brought forth a two-dollar bill.
 ''Is that right?" she asked and did not raise her eyes.
 A dull red mounted even to the mans temples. He drew back swiftly then as suddenly took the money.
 Thank you. yes" He raised his hat and Millicent went into the well-filled theater.
 A moment before the curtain arose she knew that he had come in and that he was sitting beside her. Milli- cent felt peculiarly aggrieyed that he had not so much as looked at her.
 She found herself losing interest in the actors and watching every move ment of the long. shapely hands of the
