Seek Best Hybrid;
Find Planting Rate

Demonstrations in choosing the
best corn hybrid in Tuscarawas
County turned out to be a lesson
in planting according to land pro-
ductivity, says Lester A. Cronin,
county agricultural agent.
The veterans agricultural class
at Stone Creek High School plant
ed 33 hybrids and one open poIli-
mated variety in a field near the
school last spring. They wanted to
determine which hybrid was best
for their farms.
Since the same plates were
used to plant all varieties" Cronin
says, quite a variety in planting
rate prevailed" The veterans
made stalk count and found "a
rather close correlation between
yield and number of stalks per
acre."
Top yield was 1898 bushels of
Is percent-moisture corn per acre.
There were 1870 stalks of corn
per acre.
Fifty farmers present were

of bulbs used for indoor Christmas

Outlets, sockets, cords and
bulbs for outdoor lighting should
be of the outdoor type to avoid
danger of short circuits from rain,
snow or other dampness. They also
should be sturdy enough to with
stand ice and some swaying in the
wind.
The specialist says any outlet in
stalled outdoors should be wealth

field. Living on The 288-acre farm
of his parents, the Robert Hor-
neys, he put to good use the skill
and know-how gained during ten
years in All field crops. Renting
a neighbor's farm last year, he
started his field crop career.
From 49 acres of corn he had
yield of 1000 bushels in spite of
a dry season. He controlled weeds
by spraying and this year he ex-
poets record yield of 1900 BUSH
els from 25 acres. He also has
soy beans and wheat. He now
knows that a field must be well
fertilized, weeds must be con-
trolled and hybrid seed adapted
to the climate. Rogers trip award

Through her safety work she won

OfU. S. Radio Beam for Raid

Igravest concern to the Air Force
since the last war.
He said Air Force experts in CO.
operation with FEC engineers have
now worked out a plan which in
event of air attack would instantly
cut of radio beams to enemy
|planes.
During the last war, the usual
way for enemy planes to bomb
cities was to follow a radio beam
or another electromagnetic radia-
ton wave.
If an attack on the United
States is imminent in the future,
all stations emitting radiation
would be alerted in advance to
put into effect the secret device
which would control radiation.

While the new types win cost
individually five to 10 times 81
much as the present commercial
types. total costs will be reduced
because Of low replacement rate.
