POOR SEED
MEANS FAILURE
Don't Select Your Seed Corn
From the Crib-You Can't
Tell What You Are
Getting.
WE MUST STUDY THE STALK

When You Gather Seed Corn, Study
the Root System, Foliage, Stalk,

WHY CROPS RUN OUT.

The question is often raised as to
whether crops run out" or not. To
say that crops do not run out" would
be to deny that any variations are pro-
duced by changed conditions or envi-
ronment. When plants are brought
into new conditions of soil, climate,
or methods of farming less favorable,
they will tend to deteriorate or run
out"
Desirable Qualities Suffer First Un-
der UnfavorabIe Conditions. If corn
is planted too thick (seven or eight
stalks per hilD large yield of foil
age will be obtained, but the yield Of
grain will be small Under unfavor-
able conditions the plant tends to re-
vert to it's original condition, and the
particular thing for which the plant
Is grown and which gives it value suf-
fers first and most.
Best Methods Necessary. 1t is only
by the best methods of seed selection
and of cultivation that the farmer can
hope to maintain the valuable qualities
Of his crops, otherwise they will dete-
riorate or run out" and it will be nee
essary for him to secure seed from
someone who has paid more attention
to the improvement of his crops.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1915-09-16
"SEED CORN WEEK."
The Last Week in September or the
First Week in October Should Be
Set Aside as Seed Corn Week
In the Corn Belt.

We have "Arbor Day." Would it
not also be well to have Seed Corn
Day." A day when everyone should
begin the harvesting and storing of
his seed for the following spring. We
laugh at our grandfathers for planting
their potatoes and sowing their grain
I'm the moon," that is, in certain
phases of the moon. The value of
this practice lay, not in the fact as
supposed by many that the moon ex-
ercised any influence on the crop, but
in the having of definite time and
plan for the doing of various things
on the farm.
If the harvesting of seed corn, like
the feeding of stock, came every day,
it would be attended to on time, but
1t is nothing more nor less than hu-
man that the work which comes only
occasionally or once a year, as in the
case of the harvesting of seed corn
should be put off or neglected alto
gether, unless there is a definite time
and plan for the work.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1915-09-16

One of the very best methods for
gathering the seed is to go into the
best and earliest planted fields with
bags and select we'll matured ears
from the most vigorous stalks. The
cut shows a convenient way to ar
range a sack so that you may have
both hands free for picking.
You must not fail to consider the
stalk in selecting your seed, for it
takes large, thrifty stalks to produce
good big ears. 1t is not good plan
to take the ear from a stalk that
grew in a hill by itselr, or from one
in the hill with a barren or veal
stalk. Many of the kernels on such
an ear are likely to be pollenized by
the barren or weak stalk.
Choose Ears of Medium Height
If you select the highest ears your
corn will gradually become late, and
If you select the lowest ears you will
soon have an early corn with shallow

If every ear of corn intended for
planting was harvested at the proper
time and properly stored, millions of
dollars would be added to the value of
the corn crop.
Fig. 1. Harvesting the Seed Corn
for Next Years Planting.-Every ear
of corn intended for planting should
be harvested before the severe fall
freezes, and stored where it will dry
out and keep dry. In Iowa and the
northern half of Illinois this work
should be done the last ten days OF
September and the first four or five
days Of October. Frozen seed corn costs
the country millions of dollars every
year.
A Convenient Method of Gathering
the Seed as One Passes Between the
grain sack; wooden hoop from a
nail key is put in the top of the sack.
Some heavy cord, IA inches long
(binding Irvine doubled several times)
is tied to one of the bottom corners
of the sack; the other end of the cord
is then brought over the shoulder
and tied to the hoop in the top of the
sack. The cord is wrapped with an
old sack to prevent the string cutting
the shoulder.
Fig. 2. Tying up the Seed Corn.
Putting in the First cara piece of
binding Irvine is doubled and the ends
tied together Note how the string is
held in the hands.

I. n. c. LEcTUREscHARTS.

Your Chamber of Commerce Should
Put on Series Of Lectures With l..
n. c. Charts and SIides-Get Your
Farm Demonstration or Superinten-
dent of Schools to Give You a Prac-
ticaI Talk on Agriculture.
You will be surprised to see how
intensely interested your bankers and
merchants will be. If you want to put
your organization on the map, plan an
agricultural campaign of education. Ar.
range a program. Give one lecture a
week on any of these subjects: Soils,
Corn. Alfalfa, Poultry, Weeds, Live
Stock, Flies, etc. Follow each lecture
with discussion of the subject. Make
your chamber of commerce an edu-
cational center, not just a CLUB"
Your town is built on the surplus earn
tngs Of the farm. Business men in
town should take keen interest in
the industrial welfare of the towns
trade territory"
There is nothing constructive in
grabbing business from other commu-
nities-create new business in your
own community. Have a chamber OF
agriculture and commerce.
II you want to make your organiza-
ton place of interest, plan a three
months lecture course. Use I. H. G.
lecture charts and slides. You can,
no doubt, find among the members of
your chamber of commerce men who
can give interesting and instructive
talks on any of the subjects treated
in these charts.

Pick ears that droop over so that
their tips are turned downward. Such
ears shed water better when it rains
and are usually drier than ears stand,
ing upright. The shank should be
short, as ears with long shanks are
harder to husk, and are more often
damaged. See that the husks are long
enough to cover the tip of the ear,
but do not extend far beyond. If the
tip is left bare, it is likely to be dam,
aged by insects or disease, and If the
husks extend far beyond the point OF
the ear they are usually tightly closed,
SO that it cannot dry out well and ia
difficult to husk.
There should be medium growth
of broad, thrifty leaves distributed
evenly over the stalk, and the plant
should be free from all form Of dis
ease, such as smut, rust, ETC., and
should be free from suckers.
The advantages of this method of
storing are first, that it gives better
protection from mice than when it
is spread on the floor, or corded in
piles or put in racks. Second, it gives
better circulation of air, which al
lows the corn to dry out quickly and
thoroughly, thus protecting it from
molding or sprouting and from being
frozen while it is sappy. The greatest
enemy to good seed corn is freezing
while it still contains moisture, CON
sequently there is more danger from
late harvesting than from too early
harvesting. However, it is not a good
plan to harvest seed while the corn ID

Up Where It Will Dry Out and
Keep Dry.-When the Last Ear
is laid in, one end of the string
Is slipped under the string in the
other hand, and fastened.
Tie and hang up the seed the same
day or evening that it is brought in.
This method of tying up allows free
circulation of air. 1t is circulation of
air, not heat, that is needed to dry
out the seed. Corn commonly contains
at this time from 80 to As per cent Of
water. It requires but a few minutes
to tie up 300 or 400 ears.
Fig. 4.-Experiments show that the
attic or some upstairs room where
the windows can be opened to give
circulation of air during October and
November, is the best place to hang
seed corn. A space three by eight feet
will hold 200 strings of seed corn like

an abnormal year. Excessive
moisture and cool weather has
retarded the growth of corn, es.
peeiaIIy in the northern states.
Corn will be late In maturing
and there will be a tendency to
gather seed corn late. Watch
this. Don't wait too long. Don't
wait till frost beats you to Il.
Frost bitten corn will not grow.
Gather your seed corn before
frost comes. Store 1t where II
will dry out and not freeze or
mold. Don't forget that next
years corn crop will depend on
the seed you gather this fall.

Pick Your Seed Corn Early.

A sack with the mouth held open by
q key hoop and strung over the Shout
ders by rope or strap is very con-
venient in gathering seed in the fall.
The corn may be piled on the ground
at the end of the rows or in the mid.
die of the field and gathered up in q
wagon or sled made for that purpose.
Corn should not be left on the ground
overnight or piled up in bins or cribs.
In this condition it may mold or
freeze
