FARM IN FAMILY 40 YEARS.

The Ladd farm near West Woodstock
has been in the possession of that fam
lily for lao years. About the yeai
1776, | the exact date is not known,
Nathaniel Laid came from Connecticut,
built log cabin very near the present
location of the house now owned and
occupied by G. H. Cleveland, and here
made his home, his family coming a
little later. Here Mason Laid was
born in 1889 and died in 1871 at the
age of 81. The farm as owned bv
him comprised the farms now occupied
by George E. Ladd and G. H. Cleveland
and parts of the farms now owned bv
E. B. Marble and George T. Atwood.
In the house occupied by his father,
Mason w. Ladd was born in 1889, liv

the larger part of the farm, he moved
to the buildings on the lower part of the
farm, which he had built, and now oc-
cupied by the family of his son, George
E. Ladd. Thus the larger part of the
original Ladd farm remained in the
possession of the family for about 1870
years and small section of it is still
owned and occupied by the family.

SAVE BEST CORN
Farmers Should Pick Seed
Carefully, Says Salmon.
Tests Necessary for Best Re-
suits in Wheat Also.

Manhattan, Kan, Jan. 31.-Kansas
farmers who pay from 500 to $500
for breeding animal will as rule
pick seed corn from the crib in the
spring and sell their best wheat and
save what is left for seed. They do
not realize that good varieties are
even more important to the grain
grower than is good stock for the cat
tie man, according to S. C. Salmon,
associate professor of farm crops in
the Kansas State Agricultural college.
Turkey type of wheat is without
doubt the best variety of wheat for
the wheat belt of Kansas says Mr..
Salmon. That wheat was brought
from Russia by Mennonite colonists
in 1878. 1t adds $20,000,000 annually
to the net profits of farmers of Kan
sas and $40,0OO,00O to those of the
United States.
THE farmer should make careful
tests in selecting seed wheat as it is
not possible to tell the best heads by
their appearance; that is. one cannot
say that the largest heads will produce
the best yields. Often the smallest
heads will do better because of early
kharkof.
Results at Manhattan fully justify
the expense of experiments thus far
conducted. Several pedigreed strains
have been developed that yield decid-
eddy better than common Turkey and
Kharof"
Pedigree Wheat Is Best.
A variety of Turkey wheat called
Pedigree 1872 has been produced
through experiments conducted by
Kansas State Agricultural college soil
authorities. This has produced aver
age yields of three bushels per acre
more than ordinary Turkey and khar-
kof
This may not appear important"
comments Professor Salmon, but it
should be taken into consideration
that an increase of three bushels be-
cause of growing a better variety, is
nearly all net profit. From five to
eight million acres of hard winter
wheat has been sown in Kansas in
the last few years. 1t is reasonably
certain that this acreage would pro-
| duce three bushels more per acre than
| is usually grown if a better variety
such as Pedigree 1852 were sown. This
would mean an increase in the net
profit of Kansas wheat growers of
from s10,O0O,000 to $15,000,OO0 an
nually."
