PLANT CORN FOR

Nothing Gained by Seeding Be-

Atmosphere Are Right.
NEITHER EXTREME DESIRABLE
Greatest Total Growth Of Stalk Made
From Planting in May or June
Experiments Of State Stations
Corroborated.

prepared by the United States Department
or Agricultural
No gain is made in yield or maturity
by planting cor before conditions of
soil and atmosphere are right, in the
opinion of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. Corn growers
in localities with a long season have
observed that early and late paintings
of the same variety usually show wide
differences in growth and number of
days required to reach maturity. In
general, corn which Is seeded early
requires a longer time to come up than
that which is planted later. The plants
also grow more slowly, are shorter,
and bear their ears lower. These are
commonly observed effects Of the date
Of planting.
Best Yields From Early Seeding.
Studies recently have been made by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture at the Arlington experimental
farm near Washington, D. c., in order
to obtain data which would supplement
that obtained earlier at the various
state experiment stations. Numerous
experiments have been conducted by
the state agricultural experiment sta
tons to determine the influence Of
the different dates of planting on corn
yields. The state experiments re-
viewed indicate that the best yields
of grain may be expected from the
early seedlings and the most rapid de-
velopment and greatest growth from
the later seedlings. Neither the ex-
tremely early nor the very late plant
ings are desirable.
The department investigations were
directed more to a study OF the effects
upon growth and development than
to determining the most desirable date
of planting from the standpoint Of
yield. The results Of these studies,
which extended over a ive-year period,
are presented In Department Bulletin
No. 1914, Effect of Date of Seeding
on termination, vGrowth, and Develop
ment Of Corn, by E. B. Brown and
III. 8. Garrison, which may be had
upon application to the department.
The varieties Of corn used in the
experiments cover a wide range in the
length Of the growing season required.
The data tabulated are limited to the
characters that seem to have been
consistently affected, although the
points studied included the rapidity
Of termination, the number Of days
from emergence to ripening, the height
Of stalks, the number Of ears per plant,
the average weight of eals, the average
yield per plant, and the number Of
suckers.
In all the experiments the germina-
ton OF o increased in rapidity as
the date of seeding occurred later.
When sown early the short-season
northern varieties came up sooner than
the varieties from the central and
southern states. When sown later
the differences in this respect were not
usually apparent.
May or June Favored.
The total growth of stalk was
greatest from the seedlings in June and

TEST SEEDS BEFORE SOWING

Whether the seed is for sale or for
will find it to his advantage to test
his seed, or have it tested, for purity
and termination. In making a purity
test. according to the United States
Department Of Agriculture, 1t is Gus
tomary to determine the percentage of
pure seed, inert matter such as dirt,
chaff, and broken seeds, and foreign
seeds. including weed and other kinds.
A sample Is taken varying in weight
from / to 100 grams or more "a tea
spoon for the clovers and small-seeded
grasses, a tablespoon for the grasses,
and q considerably larger amount for
cereal grains), depending upon the
size of the seed being examined. For
the termination test usually two lots
Of 100 seeds each are placed on or
between blotting paper, canton fan
mel, or such material. and kept in q
room or chamber at a temperature of
60 degrees to so degrees F. for 3
to % days, depending upon the kind
Of seed being tested.
Samples for purity and termination
tests may be sent to the seed labora-
tory Of the United States Department

May. The total growth was least and
rate of growth slowest from the April
seedlings. Development was more rapid
In the later than In the earlier seed
lngs.
Tie number of ears per stalk, the
size Of the ear, and the amount OF
suckering bore no consistent relation
to the date Of seeding. The pollen.
shedding period was longer in plants
from the early seedlings than in those
from the later seedlings. Seedlings
earlier than normal resulted In slight
gains in the date Of silking.
These experiments corroborate the
conclusions OF the state experiment
stations. that corn may be planted in
the vicinity Of Washington and other
localities with q similar season. any
time after May 1, without danger OF
the seed rotting. The best conditions
Of soil and atmosphere usually come
between Nav 10 and May 20.

name. While favoring horse-radish, 1t
is also known to attack turnip and
cabbage, and after feeding or the
lower surface Of the leaves sometimes
webs them together near the ground.
When abundant, it attacks the stalks
even down to the roots. 1t was first
discovered in injurious numbers in Vir-
ginia, near the District of Columbia,
in 1919, and occasional attacks have
been noted in Massachusetts, New
York, New Jersey, and Wisconsin. The
moth Of the species is rather a bright
ocher yellow, with a wing spread of
about l inch, peculiarly spotted. The
eggs are deposited in compact masses
containing from half a dozen to a
score. They are a little brighter
green than the leaf, and each egg is
surrounded by an irregular ring of
yellow spots.
The webworm may be controlled by
~arsenicals and by Manipulating on
~horse-radish, and more readily on
other crops by fall and spring plow-
ing and frequent cultivation.

Helpful Suggestion.

Women who wear camisOies and
boomers that slip on with elastic at
the waist usually find the elastic Is
stretched and dead after the gar
ment has been to the laundry a few
times, and SO the best thing is to sew
a hook and eye, or snappers, firmly on
the end Of the elastic and remove II
before the garment is washed. A safety
pin makes a "beader" that does not
allow the tape to slip while it Is put
In.

model was universally admired at Dull
Gets early spring opening.
There is no doubt about the coming
popularity of little garments Of this
Order-sOme very much more elabo-
rate and made of gorgeous materials.
The latest idea is to wed eccentricity
to simplicity. If the skirt be ultra
elaborate the corsage or coatee must
be very simple, and vice versa.

Firemen today continued to pour
water on the smoldering ruins Of
the Farmers Terminal Grain and
Feed Company elevator, 1904 W.
Washington St, which was destroyed
by fire that started at o'clock last
night.
The loss to the feed company was
$50, 900, according to estimates made
today by E. NJ. Strauss, manager of
the elevator. A large per cent of
this loss was covered by insurance.
The flames spread to other buildings
and the damage done to these build
ings is estimated at about $4,000.
This included damage TO q combina-
ton storeroom and residence Occu-
pied by the Standard Grocery Com
pany. Employees of that company
said the damage to the stock was
about 81 600 and this was not covered
by insurance. The telephone com
pany and street car company also
suffered loss from cables, wires and
poles being destroyed.
Wiring Believed Cause
An overheated motor or detective
wiring is believed to have started the
fire, according to an official of the
company. No night Waterman was
employed at the elevator.
The officers of the Farmers Ter
r1inal and Feed Company are George
W Sheek. president; Henry Lantz,
vice president; Harry B. Shepherd,
treasurer, and Victor \. Sheek, sec
rotary.
The company owns two other grain
elevators. one at Lawrence and the
other at Cumberland. He said the
capacity Of the elevator destroyed
last night was 10000 bushels. The
