Seed, Corn Testing Could Save Miss
ouri Farmers Eleven Million
Dollars This Year

Mr.. Average Farmer, is your time
worth 81 an hour? That sounds
like eet-rich. quick scheme, doesn't
lie? Well it isn't j. C. Hacklenan
lof the Missouri College of Agri :
culture figures that you can make
that much testing seed corn, The
average Misso uri farmer raises
about rs acres of corn each year.
He fails to test his seed corn where
| by he loses S1.50 (this is a conser-
vative eStiInate) an acre.
Mr. Hackleman says that about
ten hours of actual labor would be
required to test the seed for the 26
acres. By such testing the yield
can be increased at least Sl.50
worth. Hence the time required to
test the seed Is worth about $40,
or about 81 an hour. The more
corn farmer grows the more
money he can make by the test
The man who raises 100 acres can
increase his earnings at least $3.50
This is practically clear gain since
testing is done during late winter
or early spring when the time
would otherwise be lost.
Seed corn testing is comparatively
easy. The ears that have been
previously selected for seed are
labeled to correspond to the spaces
occupied by the grains from those
ears in the germinator. If any of
the samples of grain show poor
termination, the ear from which
they came can be found from the
label on the space the grains occupy
and can be eliminated.
One of the simplest testers is the
sand box or sawdust. 1t consists
of box about four inches deep
and thirty inches square, with about
two inches of sand or sawdust in
the bottom to hold the moisture or
to keep water from standing around
the corn. A piece of old sheetine
or other cloth that will absorb
moisture. but will not allow it to
stand on the surface. should be
stretched over the surface and
marked off into two.inch squares.
Put six kernels from various por-
tons of the middle of each ear to
be tested into one of these squares
and give the ears and squares cor
responding labels. Cover the box
to prevent drying and keep it al
room temperature about 70 degrees
F for six days, then find the ears
from which kernels failed to
terminate, throw them into the
feed box and retain those that
showed a good strong test.
Figures, based on the acreage and
yields in Missouri during the last
eight years, indicate that the losses
incident to neglect of seed corn
testing will amount to about
ST 100000 this year That amount
is worth saving.
