100 Bushels Is Low Yield
To National Corn Chun1Dion

It must have been about Is
years ago that Herbert N. Kirk
patrick learned how to grow corn
He had been doing pretty well
hefore-winning prizes at the local
and State fairs-but he hadn't
really hit his stride until tbe late
1905. That is when he got in
the acknowledgements class.
Last year Mr.. Kirkpatrick grew
204.67 bushels of corn per acre on
his Loudoun County farm. He
won the State championship
again. of. course, and was declared
the national corn champion In
the De Kalb corn contest. This
meant that he outdistanced all
farmers in the Middle West corn
growing States.
When Mr.. Kirkpatrick first pro-
duced 100 bushels of corn per acre,
the State average was somewhere
around 20 bushels per acre.
Likes to Grow Corn.
Now, if his production sags as
low as 1875 bushels per acre. he
considers his crop almost failure.
II like to grow corn" Mr.. Kirk
patrick said. I've always liked to
see it grow and I've always liked
to try things that will improve
my yields.
Il experiment with a few new
hybrid varieties every year just
to see If some of the newer ones
will give me better yields"
Mr.. Kirkpatrick's farm was once
a part of the old Carter estate.
His grandfather bought 382 acres
bordering Goose Greek, and it has
been in the Kirkpatrick family
ever since.
To a lot of people, this land
wouldn't be considered the best
corn land in Loudoun County. The
Chester soils in the Loudoun
Valley, for example, might be con-
sidered better soils for corn.
But this hasn't been too much

The cooler weather invites bak-

meals, for the aroma of home made
bread baking really starts us drool-

bread, here is a wonderful recipe
which makes three loaves. If you

loaf, the recipe is easily divided.
White Bread
2 cups milk

5 tablespoons shortening
2 cups water
2 packages active dry yeast or two
packages compressed yeast
II cups sifted flour
Heat milk until you can see a
puckery film on top, do not boil, as
the scalded milk helps the yeast to
grow. Stir in sugar, salt and short
ening until dissolved. Set aside to
cool to lukewarm Heat water to
lukewarm (the temperature is i'm
portant) and sprinkle yeast over
top. Stir until dissolved. Add
yeast mixture to milk mixture and
stir in half the flour. Beat until
smooth, then add remaining flour
and work in well with hands. Dump
the slightly sticky dough onto a
Toured board and knead hard with
the heels of your hands to mix all
ingredients thoroughly, working and
stretching the dough to give your
bread a finer even texture. AS you
knead the bread sprinkle a little
flour on the board to keep from
sticking. Place the dough in large
creased bowl, brush or wipe the
top of dough with melted shorten
ing, cover with a towel and let stand
in a warm place, away from drafts,
and let rise until double in bulk.
Punch down the dough and dump
onto the board. Knead lightly and
divide into three parts. Shape in
to three loaves and put each into
creased Tx 312 3-inch pans, COW
