Doubled Crossed Corn Seed Is
Obtainable

Enough seed of the double-cross-
ed corn varieties developed by the
Minnesota Agricultural Experiment
Station to plant about 5000 acres
is for sale this spring. The an
nual seed list of the Minnesota
Crop Improvement association lists
81 growers with 1,096 bushels. AS
these growers are well scattered
through the central and northern
corn growing sections, farmers
wanting seed should have little
trouble in buying it close at home,
saws DIR. H. K. Hayes, chief in ag-
ronomy at University Farm.
Results of farm demonstration
trials in Minnesota the last 2 years,
were very encouraging, and should
lead farmers to try this new corn.
In 1881, on 154 different farms
where double-crossed seed was
grown in the farmers own field, 1t
outyielded the farmers corn in 139
cases. The average increase in yield
for alLtrials was To ushelss or 231
percent in favor of the double-cross-
ed seed. In north central Minnesota.
the double-crossed yield almost
80 per cent, higher than farm va
rieties. Similar results were OBJ
tanned in 1880.
Double-crossed corn has the adj
ditional advantages of maturing
several days earlier than common
varieties and Of having a lower
moisture content, meaning better
quality. Farmers wanting to know
about sources of seed should see
their county agent or write A. ID.
Haedecke, University Farm, st.
Paul, for the seed list.
DIR. Hayes warns that farmers
should not use the crop grown from
double-crossed seed for planting, as
such seed will not possess the adj
vantages Of true double-crossed
seed.

New Project to Help Pick Best
Rr0n6 Eoxus

new PrOJect 70 Help PICK Best
Brood SOws
To help farmers select the best
brood sows or gifts from their
herds, that is those most likely to
produce large litters of growthy
pigs, the Minnesota Agricultural
Extension Service is launching a
new project called the Minnesota
sow testing project. Based on the
fact that prolificacy and growth
ness in hogs vary as does butter
fat production in cows, this pro-
ject provides for choosing gifts
from the heaviest filters based
on the average weaving age of Sc
days.
This project will be carried on
through county agents and high
school agriculture instructors. It
was worked out by a committee at
University Farm consisting of E.
r. Ferrin, animal husbandry di-
vision, and H. G. Zavoral and w. E.
Morris, extension livestock special
lists. 1t conforms closely to a plan
adopted for the cornbelt states by
the u. S. Department of Agricul-
ture and the National Swine Grow
efs' association.
Growers of either purebred or
grade hogs may enroll, but prefer
ence will be given farmers who
will carry the project longer than
one year. Cooperators must follow
the sanitation plan of hog raising.
Pigs are to be fed according to the
plans of the owner. Cooperators
will be encouraged to have slaught-
err tests made of two average pigs
in each litter, when marketed, to
show dressing percentage md grade
of carcass obtained from the diff
ferent filters.
Mr.. Ferrin says the man who
won the Indiana pork production
contest in 1928, Claude Mangas,
worked his way to the top through
following for years the plan of
picking his brood sows from the
heaviest filters. Also, Record of
Performance work carried on at
University Farm the last 8 years
shows a range in rate of daily gains
Of over a half-pound per head,
among pigs from different litters,
even in the best Of purebred herds.

Alexandria to the district basket

Sank Centre quint beat Henning,
then played a victorious game
with Parker's Prairie on Friday.
Winning these two games gave
Sank Centre the privilege of playing
Glenwood for the district cham

team did not seem hopeful of win
ming in the first half, but sped up
and were only two baskets behind

Monday afternoon, March z, the
members of the Seventh and
Ninth grades enjoyed an interest
ing talk presented to them by Mr..
r. F. Schwalen. With the use Of
slides, he showed them the
changes that have taken place
since Washington's time and our
time. The high spots of industry
owe much of their success to the
use of telephone. Many interest
ing facts were pointed out, such
as; New York City has more tele-
phones than any other city in the
world. President Hayes was the
first president to have a private
telephone. The talkies in Holly
wood were developed by the Bell
Telephone Company. The Stevens
Hotel in Chicago is the largest
hotel in the world; it has three
thousand rooms, and a telephone
in each room; it employees seven
ty operators. The Chicago Tribune
receives 22,50o telephone calls
daily. Many interesting places
were shown. The talk was very in
teresting and was greatly enjoyed
by every one.
