UNIFORMITY DESIRABLE IN
SELECTING EXHIBITION
CORN.

In selecting ten ears for exhibition
the first thing TO remember Is that the
sample wiz be Judged as n whole and
not In part on the merits OF a few ex-
ceptionally good ears. Two or three
unusually fine ears cannot make up
for the deficiency OF the rest of the
sample. They will bring out more
prominently the poor qualities of the
other ears and therefore detract from,
rather than add TO. the appearance OF
the sample
Uniformity should be one Of the
principal considerations In selecting
corn for exhibition. Have every ear
like every other ear in shape. size,
character Of kernel. color OF cob and
In shade Of color OF the grain. When
selecting sample. first pick out in the
field while husking or from the wagon
Or crib. one hundred or more Of the
best ears tn be found. Lay them out
nn table or floor side by side, and,
having In mind all the characters Of
good ear. study each carefully and
eliminate the poorest ones. Two or
three hours can be spent very profit
ably at this. Next. select two or three
Of the most ideal ears In the pile
Gsing each as a standard. match them
with as many good ears as can be
found Finally. out Of these lots.
choose the best ten ears that will
match
The ear should be cylindrical, or al
least only slightly tapering. with rows
running straight from butt TO tip. A
tapering ear has either less rows on
one end than on the other. or the
Kernels are shorter or narrower on
the tip end. In either case, the
yield Of grain 10 less than that OF a
cylindrical ear; besides. In the latter
case. there is the additional objection
Of lack Of uniformity In shape Of kernel
which makes II impossible for the
planter to drop them evenly
