Impetus to Hemp.
Hemp growing has received consid-
cradle impetus since the United
States Department of Agriculture I'M
dertook the work of breeding new
strains and ecouraging modern ma
chine methods of handling, about ten
wears ago. This shows an interest
ing geographical shift in hemp-groW
ing territory. Kentucky, which for
merly led. now stands lowest among
the recognized hemp-producing states
while the lead has gone to northern
states, Wisconsin supplying about half
the total acreage. Next come Mime
sofa. Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Cal
ifOrnia.
Kentucky's decline in relative posi-
ton is due largely to the FREEDOM
nance of tobacco as commercial
crop. and partly to the fact that states
coming newly into the hemp-ralslng
industry have Immediately adopted
modern methods for large-scale pro-
duction, while growers in a locality
that has always produced one crop

Used for Tying Irvine.
The output is largely used for ~
inc tvine but a new market has been
found for a considerable quantity Tor
mixing with flax in the manufacture
of shoe thread. Formerly it was moi
thought that any material except flax
could be used in shoe thread, but
since the Russian supply was almost
entirely cut off, manufacturers have
found that they can combine the two
fibers without material deterioration.
Much experimenting has been done
with a view to utilizing the hurds, or
woody center, which make up more
than half Of the hemp stalk, one
Ohio factory used several thousand
tons for paper manufacturing, but this
use will need development In the way
Of shipping facilities and definite mar
ket. AT present the hurds are mostly
burned for fuel to operate the driers
and furnish power for the breaking
and scutching machinery.
Flax growing appears to be on the
increase, due to the cutting off of the
European product. The principal flax
regions are Wisconsin, eastern Michi-
gan. the Willamette valley of Oregon
and northern Minnesota.

DIsEASE-FREE SEED
CORN YIELDS BETTER
Series of Tests Carried Out by
Plant Specialists.

Seed corn that gave 100 per cent ger
mination but showed Infection by
harmful organisms was matched
against corn that showed no intec-
ton in series of tests carried out
by plant specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture IN
cooperation with the Indiana expert
ment station The diSease-free seeu
gave an increased yield Of ten to thirty
per cent above its competitor.
Further results Of the test seemed 10
prove that when corn was planted 100
thickIy in hill or drill row it was
more susceptible to disease than When
better space was given it. In a SIM
liar test at Bloomington, Ill.,, the DIS
ease-free seed gave an increase OF 20
per cent over the other corn, when
was selected for high termination
only. At Hoopeston, ILL.,, the differ
ence, measured in tons, ranged from
O.O1 to Is tons in favor OF the SEED
selected both for high termination
and freedom from disease.
The selection was based on the aD'
sence Of disccloratiOn in the kernels
and cobs as indicating soundness. DIS
