sity of Tennessee,)
In some quarters there is fear that
there will not be enough good corn to
70 around In the spring In Tennessee
the FIRST planting Of corn was drowned
out by excessive rains and then
parched by summer droughts. The late
planting did well, bat was caught in
the field by heavy fall rains and an
overflow. Certainly not all the corn
IN the many cribs will grow, and much
OF that which does grow will produce
a weak stalk. Our experience in the
spring of 1917 ought to show US the
way out of this difficulty; the situation
looked much darker than 1t does now.
The corn went into the crib wet and
before 1t dried 1t froze and remained
In this condition until spring. The
terminating power was desh led and
much Of the corn rotted before the
farmers were aware Of the danger.
Even under these conditions there was
plenty Of seed that would grow, which
was mixed In with that which would
not. II was simply matter Of search
ing out the good seed. II Ia safe bet
that there Is plenty Of seed now, IL we
begin a diligent search for It Tbe
search should have begun last fall, but
1t is better late than never. Normally
1t is doubtful II 1t is worth while ia
test seed corn for germination. but in
OF years, such as this 1t Is the only
safe plan. 1t is q very simple and In
expensive thing to do. The only way
to know whether a seed ear will grow
is to try a few grains from different
parts Of 1t. There are several methods
ali Of which are good. II you are in
doubt, ask your county agricultural
agent or write the Division of Exten
sion for instructions.
/ Good seed is necessary for n good
crup. Homegrown seed Of higf
yielding variety is best Do not los:
your head and buy untried varieties
from distant points. II your neighbol
has better seed than yeurs, and Of !
coed variety, use that. However, IL il
likely that his crop is In about thu
same condition as yours, and that you
safest plan is to stake your chances
on the best seed corn In your crib, bu
be very sure that you find the best.
II Is always well to be trying on
new varieties in an isolated place, bu
II Is never safe to use an untried va
riety for the whole crop. --
