natural conditions. 1t is not essential
that the box be of any particular size,
although about thirty inches square
and four or five inches deep will be
found convenient. This size will test
100 ears at time
The sawdust is light clean and easy
to get and handle in February and the
first of March, when the testing should
be done; is a good nonconductor of
heat and cold, SO that the temperature
is kept even during termination, and
holds the moisture so perfectly that
there is no danger of drying out.
The number of boxes required will
depend upon the amount of seed to be
tested and the time limit. After germ
ination boxes are made, inspect care
fully the earss you are to test from the
standpoint Of the kernel.
Inspect the Ears Before Testing.
Take two or three kernels from each
ear, about third of the length of the
ear from the butt. Lay them germ
side up at the tip of the ear from
which they We're taken. If the kernels

7 lar. 1t is apt to be too damp, and the
corn must be we'll dried before putting
in the cellar, and it must not be cord
ed up or put in piles, but hung up.
Do You Know That Your Seed Corn
Will Grow? Test-Don't Guess.
1t is only good business to know that
the seed that we put into the ground
will grow; and the only way we can
tell good seed is by testing it. We
can't tell by merely looking at it. If
| we want profitable yields, we must
plant good seed.
The ten million acres of corn plant
! ed in Iowa every year are grown on
900 farms, an average of about
forty-six acres to each farm. 1t will
! take about 500 ears to plant forty
! acres. Twenty-four hours time of one
man, two days work, will test six
kernals from each ear to plant forty
acres. Yet, because it is too much
| bother" we pick out 600 ears, look at
them, guess that they will grow, and
plant them. AS a consequence, more
than twelve acres out of each forty
acres of corn planted in Iowa produce
nothing. This is worse than useless,
because we must pillow, plant and cul-
tivate these twelve acres and get moth
ing in return.
BY testing we get rid Of the bad,
weak, and moldy ears. Testing does
not hurt the corn. 1t costs but about
ten cents an acre, and can be done at
time of the year when other farm
work is not pressing. By testing we
have everything to gain and nothing
to lose.
Discard the Poor Ears Before Testing.
In the winter, during slack season
or in the early spring, from February
20 to March 20, select the best ears
from the corn you have stored in the
fall and get read to put them through
the test. (See Fig. -.
The sawdust termination box is no
doubt the best method for testing seed
corn. II costs nothing but u little
time and labor. 1t furnishes nearly

per acre to test every ear for seed.
But this work can be done very well
by hand.
Caring for Seed Corn Until Planting
Time.
After the seed has been sorted, test
ed, shelled, and graded for the planter,
and the bad kernels removed, it
should be placed in half-bushel sacks
and hung up in dry place. Put in
sacks, separate from the rest, the seed
from the best 100 ears. When planting,
use the seed from 1.-The best 100 ears"
on one side of the field from which to
pick your seed corn for the next years
planting.
We cannot afford to neglect this i'm
portant work. If every farmer would
test every ear of his seed corn in the
winter in the way described above, the
yield would be wonderfully increased.
No other time will be so profitable to
the farmer as that spent in testing the
vitality of his seed and In grading to
insure the planter dropping the proper
number of kernels in each hill. 1t is
possible for everyone to do this work.
1t will cost nothing but the time, of
which there is plenty at the season
when the work should be done. Every
farmer should realize the importance
of testing every ear of his seed corn
before spring work begins.

Do not depend for seed on the occa-

Select the best ears. if you have not

Do not store seed corn in barrels or

consider the advisability of having a
state printing plant for the print
ing of such work as is required by
the state from time to time.
One of the matters to be discussed
is that regarding the printing of GER
tain text books for the schools of
the state, some Of which are being
supplied at this time at prices which
have caused vigorous protest because
of the fact that the state board of
education adopted higher priced
books than were offered by other than
the successful bidders.
At the Bristol session of the State
Federation of Labor the matter of
state printing plant was discussed
that body going on record as oppos-
ing the letting of contracts for state
printing to "rat" shops, as non-union
Offices are designated by union men.
1t is expected that the typographical
union of Richmond and those of 9TH
er parts of the state will have dele
cations in Richmond to discuss the
matter.
