Physiologist In Charge of Corn Investiga tions, United States Department of Agriculture. s WASHINGTON, Sept. 25-Some idea regarding the economic importance of corn may be had by a realization that in the. United States it exceeds in acreage, y?eld and value, wheat, oats, barley, flax, rye, buckwheat and potatoes combined.

In addition to its magnitude the crop is important because of the wide range of industries in which some portion of the corn plant plays a more or less impor tant part. In fact, it may almost be said that there is no industry into which some product or by-product of the corn plant does not enter. Therefore any conditions which affect the production of this klnt, of crops are of Interest to every citizen of the United States. Each spring many farmers discover t when it is too late that their seed corn either fails to germinate or produces but a weak growth. They must either pay high prices for viable seed, which may or muy not be acclimated and adapted to their conditions, . or by means of , labor lous tests they may pick out such of their need as will at least "conie up." . Select See Corn Now. The corn crop of 1912 is now practi cally made and the time for selecting seed for 1913 has arrived lit the southern sec tions and will' reach even, the lates; sec tions of the t'liited States.: sometime in i October. Unless sufficient seed corn is selected at the ' right time in the, right way, there" will be the sair.e deplorable situation next spring again, when it is too late, as there has" been at eatfc, previous planting time. j ; I .. With very few exceptions the best pos sible seed may be selecteO on the farm or. which It is to.be planted, and by car rying out the following instructions,' is sued by the office of corn investigations, of the United States Department of Agri culture, each farmer may provide himself with an abundance of scxl of the highest productivity for planting in 1913, The process of seed' selection if of too great Importance- to be conducted in cidentally while husking, and in many lo calities if selection is delayed Until husk ing time, the vitality of the seed will have already be.ri injured by an early freeze. As soon, therefore, as the crop ripens, go through the field with bags and husk the ears' from those stalks which have produced best without' having any special advantages, such as space, mois ture or fertility. Late maturing plants with ears which are heavy because of an excessive amount of sap should be ig nored. In the central and southern states, other things . being equal, short, thick stalks ore preferable. These permit of thicker j planting, are not so easily blown down. I Hnd are more productive than slender ones. The tendency to sucker is heredi- J tary. Other things being equal seed I circulation of air among them. -It will be advisable to move the ears a couple of times at Intervals of about two days, whei first put on the tables. Whichever method is used, the seed should be placed in a shed or building, having a good . circulation of air, and where it, will be protected from rain and excessive cold, as well as from rats and mice. Do not store the seed In a cellar. The driest cellars are too damp and do not afford a free circulation of air. Do not store the seed in a room in which there will be vapor to condense on it and prevent, Its drying, as in a barn over stock, or in an outhouse used for washing, etc. ' When It U Dry.
