SEED CORN SHOULD
Be SELECTED NOW
Seed Secured Now VIII Make a Hand
some Profit Over the Ordinary
Run of Corn,

In sharp contast to Iowa, which Is
reported to have selected enough seed
corn for next spring, New York is al
ready seeking an available supply for
her own use. In a letter received by
Mr.. A. N. Gordon, who has been con-
nected with the Agronomy Depart
ment of the University of Kentucky,
a prominent member of the faculty of
a New York Agricultural College asks
whether it will be possible to obtain
any high test seed corn from this
state. 1t appears that the seed corn
situation in New York is about as SER
ious as it was in the Corn Belt last
year, as a frost injured the New York
corn while still in the milky stage,
before it was possible to select seed.
l saw the reply which was sent to
this letter, and am sorry to say that
very little encouragement was offer
ed in regard to the amount of field
lliShCu oSNu III lNChNuShys II "
me that while there is still time to at
tend to this most necessary duty there
is nothing which offers a farmer
greater opportunity for profit than the
selection of as much seed corn as he
has available. There is no certainty
yet that the high prices prevalent last
spring will not be repeated, and corn
at SIS per bushel, a price many Ill
inois farmers were forced to pay,
made somebody a tremendous profit.
There is little probability that any
such price will be offered in this coun-
ty, yet it is true that seed selected
now will sell at handsome premium
over the ordinary run of corn. The
farmer can't loS-, and he stands to
make a good profit if he has several
bushels of high test corn to sell in the
spring.
| shall be more than glad to assist
any one having good seed to find a
market for it.

Mason County Farm Agent
