WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, October Is, 1915. Range beef cattle closed last week 10 to 15 higher. Country demand is exceptionally heavy, 43,000 stockers and feeders bought here and shipped out last week, 5796 of the total cattle supply. Receipts today are 31,000 head, containing a fairly liberal num- Der of range cattle. Total supply at the leading markets is smaller today than last Monday, and the market on beef cattle is 10 to l5 higher in some cases. Country demand is stronger, if anything, than last week, as pros pective buyers begin to appreciate the fact that heavy runs will soon be over for this year. Choice panhandle year lings sold up to $8.25 today, New Mexico yearlings $7.75 to $500, and Colorado yearlings and twos at $7.70 and S7.75. These prices were paid for the best cattle, middle grades drop ping down a dollar or more per hund- red below these figures. Fat cows sold at S5.50 to $650, some heifers S6.75. Colorado beef steers sold at $6.75 to $7.40. Receipts today con- tained nothing from points beyond Colorado, but good Idaho and Oregon beef steers are quotable up to 'S7.65. Sheep and lamb supply was l2,600, market steady. No good fat lambs were included, medium Colorados sell ing at $500, and some heavy Arizona lambs, S5 lbs. average, at $S.15. Fat ewes are worth S5.40 to S6.O0, best fat wethers $6,50, yearlings around $700. Feeders lambs are selling steady, the demand having switched from heavy feeding lambs to lighter weights. Some 51 ID. Mexican lambs sold at $S.35 to- day, heavier feeding lambs $S to $S20. Feeding and breeding ewes continue in strong demand, Wyoming breeding ewes today at S6 to $6.50, and feding ewes at $4.S0 to S5.50. Moderate receipts are expected here, and stronger prices, buyers partic- ularly appreciating good choice fat lamts.

the center of the ear, but the tip should
taper to a point. Ears that are well filled
on butt and tip denote high termination.
If one plants two kinds of corn, say red
and white in two separate fields joining
each other they will mix and neither have
ears true to the type planted. 1t is well
known fact that pure bred cattle sell for
more than SCRUBS because a pure-bred
animal will be likely to transmit it's char
acter to it's offspring while scrubs or mixed
varieties of corn will not Field mixtures
of corn are usually associated with de-
creased yields and anything but uniformity.
A breeder of corn should have his ideal
type of corn in mind and breed towards
that ideal The longer one selects towards
his ideal the more certain he is that the
crop will be like the seed he planted 1t
mixtures of shades or colors appear one may
be sure that his corn needs better selecting.
The germ should be solid and clear, not
black. Frozen or soft, immatured seed
from ears have chaffy tips or that are not
we'll filled out very seldom grows.
Never leave seed corn in pile after pick
inc it, as it will mold or sprout. Always
store seed corn where there is good circula-
ton of air so it will dry out quickly.
There are three things one must do in
order to have the best seed corn. First he
must select his seed in plenty of time so that
it will dry out before it freezes Second,
a temperature must be maintained above
freezing until the corn is dryed Third, he
must store the seed so that there will be
free circulation of air around each ear to
carry away the moisture
There are a number Of ways of storing
seed corn Perhaps the best way is to take
a 4x4 six feet long nailed to base 2x24x24
inches Drive row of ten penny nails
about three inches apart on each side OF the
AKA. Slant them towards the top of the
4x4 so the ears will not fall off. This will
hold enough corn to plant 5 acres. This
should be placed in a we'll ventilated and dry
room An attic is good place, never place
the seed in a barn, cellar or hang it in the
open air.

THE SELECTING AND STORING OF
SEED CORN


In order that one may increase the yield
of his corn without increasing the cost of
production he must have the knowledge OF
how to select and store his seed. 1t is
better to select ones own seed corn from his
own field than it is to send away and buy
it from some seed house, because it takes at
least two years for the corn to become adapt
ed to the change in climate and soil condl-
tons If one has to buy seed it is best to
buy some variety that has been successfully
grown in his locality and buy it as near
home as possible. 1t is best to determine
the amount of ground one intends to plant
the next season, and then select twice the
amount of seed that he wants, because when
tested some of the ears may prove to be of
low terminating power.
1t takes about six quarts or thirty ears OF
good corn to plant one acre. If one intend
ed to plant five acres he had best select about
three hundred ears.
Seed corn should be selected early SO as
to be- sure of getting ripe corn. Corn that
has not ripened will not grow. By field
selection before the corn is cut this may be
determined but if one waits until it is all
husked he cannot tell which matured early.
In this northern climate our aim should be
to raise corn that will mature before the
frosts come. This can be done by the selec-
ton of the ears that ripen early.
1t costs no more to raise a perfect stand
than it does half stand.
: Unless the seed ~cor1r-is dry before it
freezes it will not grow because the little
corn plant in the kernel is frozen.
Some people select ears that are too large
These take longer to mature. One should
select medium sized ears for seed After
the ears are dry one can tell the matured
ones from the unmatured by the former be-
ing solid and the latter being loose and
shrunken.
An acre of Squaw Corn if planted in
check rows in hills, three feet six inches
apart, or 1856 hills and three stalks to the
hill containing 1865 stalks, each stalk
containing an eight ounce ear or 1868 ears,
would yield about 76 bushels per acre. This
can be done but instead field of corn will
not average one eight ounce ear to the hill,
thus the average yield is less than One-half
what it should be without any more cost OF
production.
Our bic mistake which [ have observed
is that by not proper selection OF even sized
kernels, and by this | mean the tips and
butts of the ears are planted-When the corn
is planted with a machine it cannot be ad-
justed for the right amount OF corn to be
planted because the kernels are not all the
same SIZE thus more than three stalks grown
in hill When this is done the ears are
either all nubbngs or the stalks are barren.
In selecting seed from SQuaw corn
would suggest that ears be selected that
grow reasonably close to the ground as
these mature first and from stalks that are
inclined to grow large, so as to increase the
fodder ears to he not less than seven ca
