CORN ACREAGE INCREASES
North Dakota Farmers Have LARGE
Quantity of AccIimated Seed.

Quantity Of AccIimated Seed.
North Dakota has a greater acreage
of corn and a larger yield than ever
before in it's history. There is a great
er interest in corn culture than before
and above all the state has an unlim-
tied supply of acclimated seed corn OF
the very highest quality and maturity.
The contests of the Better Farming
association have created much enthu-
siasm. The contestants report yields
varying from 40 to ITO bushels an
acre and the growth of corr from the
South Dakota line to the international
boundary.
Seed selections have been made by
many farmers and in many cases a
sufficient supply for a two-year period
has been saved because Of the high
quality and the possibility of poor
grades next season. One of the strik-
ing features of the matter is that at
least IS per cent of the corn grown
under the contests has matured. The
situation is decidedly encouraging for
those interested in corn culture in
this state.
