EXPERIMENT WORK
ON VARIOUS CROPS
AGRONOMY DEPARTMENT PAY
ING SPECIAL ATTENTION TO
CORN THIS YEAR.

A large number of crop yielding
experiments, with emphasis on corn,
are being undertaken this spring by
the Agronomy Department of the col
lege of agriculture, R. K. Bennett,
professr of Agronomy, announced 70
day.
One of the important tests is an
ear-to-row experiment to determine
the yielding ability of mother ears
selected from university corn which
has produced very high yields. Va
rious other seed corn experiments are
being conducted with view to OBJ
tanning higher yields.
Several seeding tests are in pro-
press to determine cultural practices
for seeding sweet clover; the effect of
the date Of seeding and the compara-
tive value of such nurse crops as
wheat, oats, barley and peas.
Red clover seed obtained from
Italy, France, Hungary, and various
sections of the United States are be-
ing compared in an experiment to de-
termine the relative merits of each.
The effect of the age Of corn and
sunflower plants on the quality Of
silage is dealt with in another erperi-
ment
