Hafner Has Suggestions.
John Hafner suggested for the in

for the camp that each man bring
plenty Of sox, towels, two kinds OF

clothes-a small washboard or brush,
a good comfortable pair of shoes, three
suits of warm underwear, and a good
warm suit of clothes. He states equip

war department certainly has its
hands full trying to supply these things
as rapidly as they are needed.

The importance Of early field selec-
ton OF seed corn is emphasized by the
call sent out by the Government for all
farmers to select sufficient seed for
planting the 1918 crop. The State
Food Committee has designated Octo-
Der 1920. as Seed Corn Week and
schools, bankers, business men, grain
dealers, millers and farmers organiza-
lending all possible assistance in this
movement
Early selection insures greater vital
fly and gives plants that are strong
and vigorous. Experiments conducted
at Purdue show that seed selected be-
fore the corn is well dented and that
selected at husking time, does not
terminate as well as that selected at
ter the corn Is well denied and before
severe frost. Many farmers have also
duces stronger plants than seed select
ed at husking time or from the crib.
II warm days occur late in October
or early November, the termination is
often weakened by slight fermenta-
ton. This condition as we'll as injury
by severe frosts, may be avoided by
gathering seed corn early and storing
where it will dry properly.
Pick Old Stand-Bys.
Seed should be selected from well
established varieties, as new and I'M
tried varieties may produce unprofit-
able crops. Best results will be obtain
ed by selecting well shaped ears with
straight rows of kernels of uniform
size, shape and indentation. They
should be chosen from erect stalks Of
medium size which are least affect
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1917-10-17

ed by smut and other diseases
The ears should be from three to
| four and one-half feet from the
ground. and should incline slightly
downward. 1t is always we'll to avoid
ears that have long shanks, those that
i. hug the stalk too closely and those
that are borne too high on the stalk
for easy husking. Generally speaking
it is better not to select ears from
stalks that are dwarfed. slender, very
tall or that sucker badly.
One point that cannot be too strong
ly emphasized this year Is that Of Sc
lecting we'll matured ears that are not
too large. Many Of the best corn men
in Indiana are finding that it has been
increasingly difficult during recent
years to produce crop of we'll matur-
ed corn. This has undoubtedly been
due in part to the tendency Of some
growers to select large ears for seed.
/ By selecting medium sized ears of
good quality this condition may soon
be overcome.
Most Of the seed corn selected in Oc-
tober will contain rs to 40 percent Of
moisture. Corn is not safe from Sc
we're frost until the moisture content
Is reduced to Is percent. 1t is there
fore important that every ear select
ed for seed should be stored so that 1t
will not touch other ears and In q
room or building where the air can cir
culate freely. If stored in a place Of
this kind, it will be thoroughly dry In
to weeks Of open weather. In view
of the fact that good seed is one Of
the most essential factors in securing
a large yield, farmers all over the
state are taking an unusual interest In
selecting and storing their seed.

coal laid down here on the track has
to be hauled and paid for. At the
