THE route, when extended to
Omaha, will simply take the Chi

Commenting on the efforts of
Kansas City, Mo-, to secure place
on the main line, Colonel Jordan
explained that Omaha was the most
direct route to the coast. Kansas
City will receive mail from Omaha
via smaller planes which will be
stationed here shortly after the lines
are extended.

the coast by the first of next July"
said Colonel Jordan, "and this ex-
tension will make Omaha the only
great inland terminal.
The aerial mail service is no
longer an experiment. Planes have
flown on regular schedule between
Cleveland and Chicago for the past
Us days without mishap.
New Type of Plane. r
81 expect to see at least six large
planes flying between New York
and Omaha before Christmas. 1t
will take just II hours of flying to
make the trip. A new plane is now
in the process of construction
known as the L. w. +. type, carry
ing three Liberty motors which
will greatly reduce the flying time.
1t will be in operation here by
spring"

CORN TO Be BIG

Varieties Raised From Seed

Corn has passed the experimental
stage in North Dakota. 1t has been
well demonstrated that 1t will pro-
duce good yields of grain and fodder,
and that 1t prepares the land for the
crop that follows.
At this time of the year it will be
interesting to take a look at the fac
tors that have been found to be Inn
portant in raising the good crop of
corn. The first Of these is the seed.
The variety does not make SO much
difference as the place where it has
been grown. The corn is quick to
adapt itself to the soil and climatic
conditions under which 1t is grown so
that even an early variety grown too
far south soOn becomes late maturing.
This means that it is important that
the seed corn can be grown near home
OF at least not SO much further south
that there will be a much longer sea-
o where the seed corr is grown
than where the corn from it is planted.
It is also important that the seed corr
has good vitality. If it has poor
vitality, it may not be able to with
stand the low temperatures that the
little corn plant may have to en-
counter.

Early Planting Important.

Early planting is also important.
The boys who have secured the best
yields in the corn contests have been
the ones who planted their corn about
May 20. This will of course depend
some on the season.
Even for the silo, nearly ripe corn
Is the best as it contains the most
food value when ripe or near-ripe and
the nutriments are more digestible, as
the ripe stage is approached. Late
corn may have a larger bulk at silo
filling time than corn that is ripe,
but the immature corn will contain
more moisture. 1t is the dry matter
that has the food value. The imma-
ture corr also makes a sour silage
while the nearly mature o makes q
sweet silage which is preferable.
Have Patch for Pigs.
A field of corn should by all means
be provided for the pigs to hog down.
The pigs will make more gains from
the corr in this way than if it is
husked and fed to them. When the
corn Is hogged down the pigs can be
started on the corn sooner than If the
corn Is to be husked and fed to them.
An acre Of fair corn will feed five or
six spring pigs for 90 days and 1t
makes cheap fattening food. At the
North Dakota Experiment Station
corn hOgged down when hogs were
bringing Z to 8 cents q pound made a
return Of $40 to $50 pei. acre.
At the North Dakota Experiment
Station 1t has been found that more
wheat II produced Ii the three crops
Of wheat following corn than in four
crops OF continuous wheat. This
meAns that corn can be grown one
year out of four without reducing the
amount Of grain raised on the same
land. When the land was MANFRED
for the o + the next three wheat
crops averaged one-fifth more than
four crops Of continuous wheat or
nearly % much Ia three crops Of wheat
following corn manured as In ave
crops Of continuous wheat. When corn
Is grown It should be fed on the farm
IN which case there will be manure
10 put OF the corn land.
Corn has demonstrated what It can
do OF the North Dakota farm and the
proof has been 10 convincing that it
sho1ld be given q prominent place
among the crops.
