Wild Rice a Valuable Food.

Wild rice, according to a consular
report, is 'the most nutritious cereal
in America" The plant has a long
black grain, and hence is sometimes
called black rice. 1t has been used
from time immemorial by certain In
dian tribes as their principal food. In
recent years 1t has come into the
white mans markets, selling for con.
siderably more than ordinary white
rice.

whatever Of the stalk if the ears are
taken from the crib in the spring.
Another method commonly used is
to have a box on the wagon bed, into
which good seed ears are thrown
while gathering the corn. The chief
objection to this method is that a man
is usually thinking more of getting
the wagon box filled and the corn in
the crib than of selecting seed corn,
and SO many of the best ears are over
looked.
Storing the Seed.
The object of both methods is to
find the best ears early in the fall.
After the corn is gathered it should
be handled in such a manner as to dry
out thoroughly before freezing wealth
er. This can be easily done by max
ing racks in which the ears are placed
and swung up in the granary or barn
in a dry and we'll ventilated place
where the mice will not get at it.
Another convenient way of storing
corn is to take a board, say 10 by 20
inches, and drive 12-penny casing
nails through it from both sides,
three inches apart each way, and stick
the ears IN these nails. A board Of
this size is convenient and will hold
"a ears, enough to make a bushel of
good seed corn, which will plant sew
IN or eight acres. Bore a hole in the
top of this board and suspend with a
wire.
If corn is stored in barrels, or piled
up, it will not dry out as we'll as if
stored in racks, and when freezing
weather comes on it will be injured.
If thoroughly dry, a severe freeze will
not injure the vitality of the corn to
any appreciable extent.

feeds to a slight extent upon rye and
barley. A rotation of corn, wheat and
clover, o. corn. oats. wheat and clover,
should prove effective in freeing land
Of Hessian flies.
Burning Of stubble.
One of the first things to be done at
this time of year in clearing the farm
Of Hessian flies is to see that all
wheat stubble is burned OF plowed
under. This should, If possible. be
done by the middle of August.
Preparing an ideal seeded for win
ter wheat does not prevent i~nfestation
by the fly, but it does, by giving the
young wheat plants a good start, pre-
vent severe damage. On most soils
continuous discing will secure this
seeded at the minimum cost.
The use of fertilizers are to be rec
commended in this connection. They
help to carry the plants through the
period when they are young and weak
and most liable to injury from the fly.
Sowing Strips of Wheat as Bait.
Early planting Of trap or decoy
crops will attract the flies, and after
the eggs are laid these crops should
be plowed under. Wheat is the best
crop for this purpose. 1t should be
sown in August.
-.
Besides these methods of combat
ting the pest, it may be said that,
while there are no varieties of wheat
which are free of Hessian fly damage,
there are varieties which resist the
damage better than others. Those va
rieties having large stalks and those
which stool out heavily are damaged
least. The varieties with small stalks
and but few tillers are the ones which.
suffer most.
The Mediterranean" is one of the
least injured, and is also a variety
we'll adapted to Missouri. The 'Tur-
key Red" is also fairly resistant to
the Hessian fly.
Damage to the Wheat-may be large
ly prevented by (1) burning or plow-
ing under the stubble of infested
fields, (2) by preparing a good seed
bed, (3) using fertilizers, and az by
seeding with strong, vigorous wheat.

G0RN FOR seed.
SELECTING EARS BEFORE GATH
ERINe TIME MOST salts.
FACTORY METHOD.
BY c. B. Hutchinson, Assistant Pro-
fessor of Aeronomy, Univer-
sity of Missouri.

The same reasons that make it nee
essary to select animals carefully in
breeding live stock also make it nee
essary to select ears of orn carefully
If one wishes to grow better corn. A
good a of corn will produce other
ears like 1t If conditions are favorable,
and for this reason only good ears
should be selected for planting. If
we should all take as much care in
selecting our seed corn as the breed
er of animals does in selecting ami
mails the yield of corn in Missouri
would be greatly increased.
This matter of corn breeding" as
it has come to be called, offers great
opportunities to the wide-awake mar
or boy who knows good corn when he
ices it, The time is rapidly coming
when we shall have corn-breeders in
every neighborhood from whom we
must buy our seed corn, just as we
now have breeders of pure-bred ami
mails from whom we must buy u
breeding stock. There is great oppor-
tunity for the right young man in
every neighborhood to be a leader in
the improvement of corn.
Seed corn should be selected in the
fall, preferably from the field after 1t
is we'll matured and before any heavy
frosts have occurred. One of the best
methods is to go through the field
with a basket or sack and select the
best ears from the best stalks. An
a Of corn may be a good one be-
cause it has had special advantages.
1t may have been produced in a hill
with only one stalk and have had
O. than its share of plant food. On
the other hand, it may have grown in
a hill with two OF three stalks and
made a good a In spite of these con-
ditions. Such an ear is a better one
for seed, and when planted will be
more likely to produce good ears than
one that has had special advantages.
Again, the ear may have been pro-
duced on a weak stalk that has blown
down, or has been born too high or
too low on the stalk. The position OF
the ear may be erect, SO that the fall
rains enter the husks readily, or it
may be dropping and well protected
from the weather. Such points may
be considered If the seed Is selected
in the field, but one knows nothing

Rotation of Crops.

It is a matter of common observa-
ton that when any of our cereal crops
are grown year after year on the
same ground the enemies of that crop
abound in the soil until the crop is no
longer profitable. So it is with wheat.
Land that is badly infested with the
Hessian fly should be sown to spring
crops, such as corn and oats. Wheat
is about the. only cereal severely at

damage in the fall is done by the sec

with cold weather, SO that the later
the wheat is sown the fewer flies
there are. Trouble will usually be
avoided If sowing is put off until
about the last of September.
