CHAMPION CORN GROWER.

How an Iowa Farmer Has Achieved
This Distinction.
Raising 141 bushels of corn on an
acre at an expense Of only $13.73 for
rent, seed, horses, labor and husking
helped make Willard Zeller, an Iowa
farmer, the champion corn grower of
the world, according to an article in
the current issue of the Farm and Fire
side. And when it is said that much
Of that corn has longer ears, bigger
kernels and smaller cobs than any 9TH
er corn the record is complete.
This is how Mr.. Zeller raises the
champion corn:
Very early he came to understand
that the one biggest thing in the corn
business was good seed and systemat-
ically began to develop it. A germina-
ton test was made Of large number
Of ears, and from among them ten
ears, all of which tested 100 per cent
perfect and strong, were selected.
Three hundred kernels from each of
these ten ears were planted, and the
corn from each ear was planted in a
separate row. All grades of quality
were represented, the best ear yielding
118 bushels to the acre and the poor
est yielding only thirty bushels.
But he was not satisfied with one
test. He was anxious to verify his
experiments and planted corn from the
same mother ears under similar con-
ditions the next year. The results
were also similar. The ear which was
best the first year was best this year
also and produced yield of III BUSH
els, and the poorest ear was again
poorest with yield of thirty-five
bushels.
The third year, under similar condi-
tions, there was the same great differ
ence in quality among these ten orig
inal ears from which the test was be-
ing made, the first being again first
with ia bushels, and the poorest being
again poorest with thirty-four bushels.
The soil is plowed to depth Of sew
en- inches in the fall. Early in the
spring it is narrowed to make dust
mulch. By the narrowing it seems that
the small capillary-like openings in the
ground are broken, and the moisture
that would otherwise escape remains
in the soil. Just before planting the
ground is disked and then narrowed
again. With the soil soft and fine and
warm it is in condition for planting.

The Covered Manure Shed.

The Covered Manure Shed.
A popular method of caring for ma
nure is the covered manure shed. To
obtain the best results the shed should
be provided with a cement floor in
clined at each end to allow spreader
to be run in at one end and out at the
other. The sides should be sufficiently
high to contain all the manure to be
stored. The manure should be placed
evenly over the floor and that from
horses, cattle, sheep and hogs mixed
to prevent as far as possible aerobic
fermentation and consequent loss Of
nitrogen. The cattle In the yard should
be allowed to trample over it, and it
may be worked over by the hogs with
out much danger oflloss. In addition
; to being storehouse for manure, the
shed furnishes shelter for farm ami
mails. which will compact the manure
SO that the aerobic fermentation ne.
sponsible for the loss Of nitrogen viii
i be largely prevented.

HOW 70 SELECT SEED BEANS.

o The United States department o
o Of agriculture gives the following o
advice: o
o Get seed from your own crop If o
possible. If there are no clean o
pods in your own crop try to Sc o
cure clean pods from a more Cor o
o tunate neighbor. 0
o Select in the pod, not after o
thrashing. O
o Pick pods free from all spots. o
Spots on the pods mean that an o
o thracnose, or bacterial blight, o
may be hidden in the seemingly Q
clean bean. Q
o Thrash selected pods. o
Examine your thrashed seed O
o carefully and throw out all o
doubtful looking beans, especial O
ly those that are spotted or shriv- Q
eled. O
o Rotate. Don't replant old bean o
o ground next year. Clean seed o
0 and rotation are the best crop in O
o surance. O
o If you have to buy your seed o
make sure that it has been Sc O
0 lected by the grower from dis 0
ease free pods. Examine pur- o
O chased seed. Do not plant if the O
0 thrashed seed looks suspicious. o
O Look ahead. Insure a supply O
0 of clean seed for 1917 by select o
O ing seed from clean pods and o
o planting it on clean land in 1915. o
