Tho noxt spring when tho seod was planted 00 por cent of tho first lot and only 70 por cont of tho crib-cured lot produood plants. In Iowa it was found that corn stored in a seed room Bhowed a germination of 05 por cent, that storod in a tool shod, 01,7 por cont, whilo that loft on tho stalk showed a germination of but 55 nor cont. Hartley, iu n similar tost, found that his carefully ourod sood com yioldcd 12 por cent more oorn on poor noil and 27 per oent mora on for tilo soil. AKEXOTJIl COWS LIKE TUKBB?
