DEFEATED DROUTH
OF PAST SUMMER
AVERAGE GOOD CORN PARMER
PLOWS HIS CORN AT LEAST
THREE TIMES.
STORY OF NEBRASKA FARMER
Story of Nebratkan Whose Crop. Will
Yield Fifty Bushels to Acre In
6plte of Drouth.
Near Contrnl City, Nob., Is a field of
corn that will yield fifty bushels to
the acre this year, In splto of tho
drouth.
Adjoining it, with only a barbed
wlro fence between, 13 another field of
corn that will not yield enough to pay
for cutting.
Tho corn of ono field is green and
Its ears nro full. Tho cornstalks In
tho other aro seared nnd yellow and
tho winds rustic them In their dry
ness. ,
And yet each field ha3 exactly tho
same soil, the samo level of surfnee,
the same drainage, the same degree of
moisture, nnd the same qunntty of
rain fell upon each.
Thero nro three reasons why ono
fold Is yielding n large crop of corn
this year while tho other is yloldlng
only a few bushels:
First Careful selection of tho seed
planted.
Second Deep plowing of the soil.
Third Cultivation of tho soil five
times after the corn has como up.
Tho Held of corn that Is yielding
fifty bushels to tho acre is owned by
tho T. D. Ilord Grain company. This
company haB 1,250 acres in corn this
year in different fields near Central
City, and all of It Is In good condi
tion. Very little of It will yield fifty
bushels to tho acre, and very little of
It will yield fewer than twenty-flvo
bushels, which Is a good crop this dry
year.
The Hord company's fields of corn
are always bettor than other fields In
the same neighborhood where the
same methods of seed selection and
cultivation aro not practiced.
The Secret.
A representative of tho Kansas City
Star wont to Central City to get from
Hcber Hord and his farm manager,
William Mlllor, tho secret of fruitful
corn growing, and here it is:
First, and the utmost Importance, Is
tho selection of tho seed. Tho man
who selects nil of the seed plantod on
the Hord farms gave this account of
bow It Is done:
"Select tho eara for seed In your
own fields and as early In tho fall as
possible. Degln going through the
field early looking for ears ripe enough
to pick and select those that ripen
first because the seed of ears that
ripen early this year, If planted, will
mature early next year, thus avoiding
possibility of damage by early frost,
and making suro of an early develop
ment and avoidance of damage by lata
trouth.
"Pick ears for seed just before they
are ripe enough to sholl, but when the
kernels are hard and dented good.
Pick tho largest and best shaped, best
developed ears, going over all the field
(or them, picking ono hero and one
there, and so on.
"It Is very Important that thla corn
be so thoroughly dried before frost
comes that there is absolutely no
moisture In It. And tho best way to
do this It to lay it out in the sun. If
thero is any moisture In tho grain
when frost comes It will freeze, and
froozlng kills tho germ of llfo. Many
farmers, every yoar, plant corn that
has been frozen and then wonder why
only a part of It comes up.
"After the corn Is thoroughly dry se
lect the best ears, with straight rows,
docrt grains and well filled out over
both ends.
"Remember always that you can
never tell by tho looks of corn
whether it will germlnato or not. The
only way to find that out Is to test
each ear, and tests all parts of the
ear, for we have found that often1 the
grain from one-half tho length of the
ear will grow when planted and the
other halt will not. And often the
grain from one side of an ear will
grow and from the other side It will
not.
"From each ear tako six grains, one
from about two inches from ono end,
the next from farther along and from
two or threo rows away, and ao on
ARGENTINE BEEP IN DEMAND.
Consignment of a Hundred Tons It
Quickly Disposed Of.
New York. Tne consignment of 100
tons of Argentine beef which arrived
has been disposed of. Part of It was
sold to dealors in this city and found
Its way Into retail trade. When sold
as Argentine beef tho consumer got
the benefit of a 4-cent reduction on
the pound. The moat sold so well
that butchers are beginning to inquire
for It, but they will have to wait for
the next cargo, Here are some of the
down the ear, taming the ear in your
hand at you pick out the grains, so
that the six grains are from all parts
of the car except the two ends.
Grading the Seed Corn.
"Then that onr is numbered and laid
oa a rack and the six grains are put
in a similarly numbered compartment
In a tray, and the nix grains from ear
No. 2 are put in compartment No. t,
and so on, until yo-t have the traya ol
your corn tester filled.
"Then you pour water 70 degrees
warm over tho grain, abut the tester,
light the lamp which keops the tern
pcraturo of tho seed nover under 70
nor over 90 degrees. In twenty-four
hours the corn will bo swelled up.
Then draw off tho water, shut the
tester, with the samo temperaturo for
twenty-four hours moro, keeping the
seed damp by sprinkling, and at the
end of tho third twenty-four hours the
corn will havo sprouts from ono to
three Inches long, and roots of corre
sponding length.
"If nil six of the grains havo sprout
ed you grado that ear 100 per cent and
to on. If It grades under 85 Kr cent
throw tho ear away, It Is unfit to
plant.
"After you have tested each car and
saved nil that grades nbout 90 por
cent or over, you shell the cars,
throwing away tho corn from tho
length of nbout two Inches at each
cud. The com left you run through n
grader eo the grain saved for Heed will
bo uniform In slzo, and will drop with
uniformity fiom thu planter.
"HnIng taken this much care In so
lectins your seed you will ho suro that
each grain planted will come up, and
that It will make a strong and lusty
stalk, Hint will mature early and havo
the most drouth 'resisting qualities,
and will produce tho biggest and best
cars."
Cultivation.
.Mr. Miller gives tho following
method of cultivation used:
Never plant corn after corn. Al
ways rotate tho crops, following wheat
with corn.
Every farm ought to havo a alio.
Then tho corn can be cut ono year
when there Is plenty of Julco In tho
stalks and before tho kernels havo be
gun to dry up, nnd put In tho silo,
leaving tho ground ready to plow and
sow to wheat. After tho wheat Is har
vested tho next July is tlmo to begin
plowing again for the next crop of
corn.
Plow nine inches deep for corn and
never less than olght Inches deep.
This Is very Important and there are
good reasons for It. The deep plow
ing throws to tho surface a little new
soil and, as corn roots nover go deeper
than the earth has been stirred, deep
plowing gives the corn roots mora
room to go down for moisture In a
dry season and the deep plowing
makes a deeper seedbed and holda
more moisture than shallow plowing.
Keep on Plowing.
We nover plant corn before May 10,
no matter what tho season. Tho risk
of a cold spell Is over thon and the
ground Is warm. Wo havo dlecovored
that when tho soil Is warm the corn
comes up quicker nnd Is strongor. A
lot of vitality goes out of seed that
lies In the cold earth olght or ten
days.
We begin to prepare the soil for
planting as soon as It Is fit to b
worked. First we disc It one or more
times and harrow It with a 4-horsa,
3-scctlon, 16-foot harrow.
As soon as we have planted the corn
we harrow It with the same harrow I
have described, to kill any little fine
weeds that have come up. When the
corn Is up one to three Inches wo har
row It again. When It la four Inches
high wo go through It with a plow,
using a common z-horso riding
shovel cultivator.
The object of all our plowing la to
leave tho ground level and ridge It aa
little as possible, because ridges give
a chance for the moisture In the aoll
to evaporato out the aides of tho
ridges, while If the field la left level
thore Is loss surfaco space for mois
ture to get away through. This la
very important.
Cheating the Drouth.
When you havo cultivated the field
once, turn right around and cultivate
It again. Plow It as many times as
you can. Thcro is no time to bo Idle.
The average good corn farmer plows
his corn threo ttmos. That Is not
enough. Wo plow every Hold of our
corn five times. 'Tho fourth and fifth
plowing of a field of corn will add ten
bushel an acre to tho yield.
Mr. Miller spoke of tho field of corn
that 1b yielding fifty bushols to the
acre while an adjoining piece will
yield practically nothing.
"That field was plowed nine Inches
deep," he said. "Tho best selected
seed was planted and It was cultivat
ed five times and after that I went
through It with a 6-tooth drill culti
vator when the corn was up so high
you couldn't ece tho mules' backs. I
did that because I saw the drouth
coming. Tho frequent cultivation con
served the moisture."
