DETASSELING SEED CORN PLANTS

DURING the past thirty years thcio
have Leen a number of experl

effects of detassillng ou the
yield of seed corn. The method ordi
narily used Is to detassol, say every

A (lumber of experiments have been
Me thnt a certain per cent of the
grains on an ear should be fertilised
with poilon from Its own tassel. Every
one of these grains, while It will grow
the next year, still will not develop
n strong plant. It Is probable that
Iroin 10 to 15 per cent of the grnins
ou an ear are fertilised from its own
pollen and everyone of these grains
will produic either a small plant with
nuhhln or ,i barren plant However.

FAULTY ROADS DUE TO
HOLES AND CULVERTS
If you like The Herald subscribe.
By L. W. Chase, Department of Agri
cultural Kafln oring.
This summer has been an exception
ally good oioj to cujoy roads. But in
how many parts of the stute hr.ve the
roads been such us one couid enjoy
them? They have not been muddy
and neither have they been exception
ally rutty. There have been two rea
sons why the roads are not such as
they should L)- one Is the dust und
tlie other is t ie chuck holes and cul
vert?. When roads 4re hard and not muddy,
ns they are most often found,
we lire ront to call them good roads,
hut are they, and is there the pleasure
in driving over t hem there should be.
When we C4MM to town and drive over
the smooth macudam streets or as
phalt pavements we are wont to re
mark about how smoothly the buggy
rides, and of course place the pleasure
derived from the ride to the credit of
the road material Earth roads can
be made and kept so they are nearly
as smooth as macadam roads during
dry weather and at the same time be
kept much more free from dust by the
DM of the common road drag. The
action of the drag when used at the
proper time is to plaster the surface
of the road together in the same man
ner that bricks are made. Then whea
the hot rays of the sun come out the
particles of soil are baked together.
This process, Known as puddling,
makes a hard, firm road surface, and
one which des not easily crumble into
dust.
A nice smooth roadbed is appreci
ated far more by those driving in light
carriage than by those driving heavy
loads. In the tinnier case, the people
In the carriage are the ones who are
jostled about until their sides are sore,
while lu the latter case the horses are
the on - to be jerked about, and. of
course, they can stund It.
Chuck holes unci high or low cul
verts are one ot the worst enemies
thorn Is to pi asaut ride on other
wise good ro;ds. The horse will just
get stalled into a nice easy trot when
it jerks them up almost to a stand
Mill, throwing the occupants of tae
carriage nearly off the seats, while
the carriage j asses through a hole in
the road or over a high culvert or
drops off the odo af a hridse.
It is these tw.j features of the roads
n most of oar rural communities
which hxs pre v nted our Irlends fiom
the town (trlVlOg out to enjoy th?
country air the. e hot summer days.
Posi;ibly you do not believe this, but
in a recent trip into the country over
an otherwise smooth road the horses
weie drawn down to a walk seventeen
Htiie.s while the carriage passed
through (buck holes or up on to cul
verts o" down off culveits or bridges,
and this trip was only a few rods over
tl'ioo miles long. It Is not an excep
tional case, hut one which is far too
c omnton.
RATE OF SEEDING
WINTER WHEAT
(North Platte Experiment Station.)
At the North Platte experiment sta
tion the rate of seeding winter wheat
on summer fallowed laud has been,
studied for several years. For the
last crop, where all wheat was very
poo-, the yields were as follows:
& pecks on 7 plats, av. yield. . .12.3 bu.
4 pecks on 1 plat. av. yield. . . .14. bu.
3 pecks on 1 plat, av. yield. . . .24.7 bu.
po ks on 1 plat, av. yield. . . .15.4 bu.
Taking a six-year average. isoti to
1911, the yields have been as follows:
Five pecks yie'ded 41.4 bu.
Four pecks yielded 41 2 bu.
Three pks yielded (I yrs only .30.8 bu.
Two pocks yielded 40.8 bu.
These yieldf ,how that where soil
and climatic conditions are favorable
the thinner tee'liug stools until it oc
cupies the ground and produces prac
tically as many stalks per acre as
where more seed Is sown. It has been
thought trem 'he experience previous
to 1911 that the thinner seeding would
MM be adapted t toils where moisture
grai deficient since Mooting would not
tske place inter these conditions, but
;':e yields of 1911 show the highest
yield ou the thinnest seeding with a
gradual reduction as the amount of
