Ancestry Important
In Good Seed Corn

There is feeling among farmers
that round kernels and irregular
shaped grains do not produce the
same type of corn as the so-called
"fiat" kernels. According to plant
breeders and agronomists, this be-
lief is not based on fact. In seed
corn it is the ancestry of the seed
itself that counts-that is the genetic
makeup of the seed. All kernels on
an ear of a true hybrid have exactly
the same germ plasm and, therefore,
will produce the same type of corn
as any other grain of the same ear.
One thing that has kept farmers
from using more round and irregular
shaped kernels in the past has been
the difficulty of obtaining uniform
stands. Today this is no longer a
serious factor. Most all corn planter
manufacturers make a wide variety
of plates to accommodate the various
sized and shaped kernels. Producers
"a SCSo VI Soiii iiyOAioo HdNC ACddy
access to complete planter plate test
ing equipment and, therefore, can
make accurate recommendations to
their customers.
Round and irregular grades are
really economy grades" inasmuch
as they sell for less and produce the
same type and quality of corn as
flats. Especially with the scarcity
of seeds of good adapted Hybrids.
many thrifty farmers will plant
these grades in 1941. Many farmers
of this area are beginning to notice
the seed shortage, it was stated this
week, at the Herr Brothers hybrid
corn establishment on Bentley road.
Just as with "fats" the corn must
be uniformly graded to plant ac-
curately and should be of hybrid
adaptaed to your soil and weather
conditions. This, with proper planter
plates and tillage practices, means
high yield of fine quality corn.

Obituary.

>
wife of Alvin J. B. Longsdorf, super
intendent of the Bluffton public
schools, was born on October 16, 1884,
near Springville, Plain Township,
Wayne County, Ohio, and passed
away in the early morning hours of
Sunday, March 16, 1941, in her home
at 232 South Lawn Avenue, Bluffton,
Ohio, aged 56 years and months.
The deceased was the daughter of
Martin and Ellen Elizabeth Houser,
highly respected and we'll known cit
liens of Chester Township, Wayne
County, Ohio, where her venerable
father now past 90 years of age, re-
sides, making his home alternately
with his youngest son, Karl nj. Lands
on the old home farm during the sum-
mer, and with another son, Edward
VI. Lands, during the winter months.
The mother preceded her in death Is
years ago.
Mrs. Longsdorf was the seventh in
a family of 10 children. Surviving,
in addition to the husband and faith
er, are four brothers: William Gar
field Lands, Edward Martin Lands,
and Karl Madison Lands, all of
Wooster; and three sisters: Anna
Belle Lands, Wooster; Mrs. Mary Ell
len Winter, of West Salem; and Mrs.
Effie May Butler, of Wooster. A sis
ter, Mrs. Lettie Louise O'Hail and
brother, David Clyde Lands, are
dead.
Mrs. Longsdorf was a member of
the First Methodist church of Bluff
ton, of the Marys and Marthas Sun
day School class, and of the Women's
Society of Christian Service of the
First Methodist Church of Bluffton.
She was member of the Bluffton
Parent-Teacher Association, unit of
the State and National Congress of
Parents and Teachers; and an Asso-
ciate member of the Alice Freeman
club of Bluffton, and also a member
of Bluffton Chapter No. $50, Order of
the Eastern Star of which order she
was Chaplain during residence
in North Baltimore, Ohio.
AS long as her general health per-
mitted, Mrs. Longsdorf was active in
the work of the church, and other or
ganizations to which she belonged, al
ways willing to do her part. While
residing in North Baltimore, she was
a regular teacher of class of young
girls, who refused to be promoted in
the work of the Sunday school unless
their teacher was promoted along
with them, privilege which was
granted them for several years. Mrs.
Longsdorf was always interested in
people, especially young folks, and
while she never had any children of
her own, she mothered end cared for
those of others, whose memories to-
day will kindle with her kindly min
istration.
Perhaps one of the outstanding
characteristics of Mrs. Longsdorf, as
recently expressed by her many
friends, was that of the courage and
fortitude with which she bore her
years of i'll health and suffering, yet
always interested in the daily affairs
of life, and using her ability to radi-
ate cheer to others as she looked for
ward in faith to better day.
