sion Report.
Brookings S.

Brookings S. D., Sept. 8.
Corn may be improved each year by
seed selection, suggest State college
agronomists. South Oak ota uses
about 400. 600 bushels of seed corn at
home and exports thousands of bush
els each year to other states. An in.
crease of one bushel per acre means
an increase>of nearly 3 600, 600 bush-
els ia the crop.
A perfect stand of corn with three
stalks per hill, each bearing medium
sized ear, yields about 70 bushels pez
acre. An 80 per cent stand yields
about So bushels per acre The pres-
ent average yield is about half that,
or % bushels per acre. Extra care in
selecting, curing, testing and grading
the seed corn will do much to improve
the stand and yield of corn, thus saw
ing labor, reducing cost per bushel
and increasing net profit per bushel.
1t requires the same labor t, manure,
to pillow. to disk, to harrow, to plant
and to cultivate 40 per cent stand
as is required for an 80 per cent or
100 per cent stand.
