Now is the Time to Select Prize Winning Corn for Competition

BY ISAAC L. TOTTEN. The advice from the Purdue agricultural experiment station was that the best time to select our seed corn was before October 10th, to avoid injury from frosts, but somehow, for reasons best known to those who did not follow the advice, the time slipped past. The next beet time, of course, for picking out the good seed ears is while busking. Every corn grower in Wayne county knows that it isn't a very desirable practice to wait until the corn is in the crib before selecting the seed ears, or the ears that are to take the prize at the corn show this winter, if we have one. Did you ever go out to the corn crib and paw and dig around for nearly a whole day trying to get some good seed ears or some beauties to take to a show? You are sure they are there somewhere, but you can't find them because they are at the bottom of the pile. Many farmers who make it a practice to select their seed while husking, have a basket in the wagon or a box attached to the side of the wagon; then when they find those prize winners they place them in the basket of box and say, "We've got you where we want you this time." Every corn grower, at least nine out of every ten, can select a pretty ear of corn as readily as he can pick out a pretty girl when he sees one. Someone has said that next to a pretty girl an ear of corn is the prettiest thing on earth. The greatest trouble with good or pretty ears of corn is that they are about as scarce as W. C. T. U. women at a Bohemian picnic. Many farmers have little trouble in selecting ears of corn that do very well for seed; but there are others who do not know the many points that are to bo considered in selecting the perfect, or nearly perfect, rather, Indiana type of ear. That is the points that are judged at a corn show. For the benefit of those who missed the corn judging work under the direction of Prof. G. I. Christie, at the sixth district corn Bchool held in Richmond last February, we will set forth the points, as we remember them, to be looked for in selecting desirable ears of corn for either seed or exhibition purposes. As the score card, which is used by the judges in chocking up the points of merit in the ears of corn of the various exhibitions at a corn show, furnishes a good basis from which to work while considering the choice ears and as the points to be considered in fixing the prizes at the show are precisely the same as those to be looked for in selecting good seed corn, suppose we use the score card now in our explanation. The following is the official score card as adopted by the Indiana Corn Growers' association: 1 Uniformity of Exhibit, 10 points. 2. Shape of ears, 10 points. 3. Length of ears, 10 points. 4. Color of Grain and Cob, 10 points. 5. Tips of Ears, 5 points. 6. Putts of Ears, 5 points. 7. Kernelfa) Shape, 10 points. (b) Indentation, 5 points. (c) Uniformity, in points. 8. Seed condition, 15 points. 9. Proportion of Grain to Cob, 10 points. No. 1. The first point on the score card, as will be seen is "Uniformity of exhibit." This, of course, refers to the trueness to the type of the ears selected. There might be ten nice, shapely ears consisting of twq of three varieties or mixtures. One reason for having ten ears as the standard sized exhibit is to see the relationship of the ears; another reason is to test the exhibitor's knowledge of good corn. Any corn grower can readily understand the reason for this point, and can see its value from a seed selecting standpoint. No. 2. Shape of ears An ear of cylindrical shape, well rounded at each end, affords the largest percentage of grain per cob as well as kernels of the most uniform shape. In selecting an ear for seed, one naturally picks the one that shows vigor, symetry of form not too large in circumference for the length nor too small in circumference for the length and the rows of kernels should be as straight as can be found. The kernels should fit compactly together on both sides and edges, and should be uniform in shape on all portions of the ear. No. 3. Length of ears for this section of Indiana, the Indiana Cyrn Growers' association has decided that the standard length of ears should be ten inches. No. 4. Color of Grain and Cob There should be no off color kernels, and in the yellow ears of corn there should be no white cobs. The kernels should present an oily appearance as though they had life. The cobs should have a bright, healthy color. No. 5. Tips of Ears The tip extends a half inch back from the tip end of the ear. The tips should be well rounded and the nearer the straight rows of kernels come to the end the better. No. 6. Butts of ears The butt should also be well rounded with the straight rows of kernels extending close to the end. The shank should be medium in length and strength. No. 7. Kernels (a) Shape The shape most desired is that of a wedge having straight sides and edges. This shape admits of the kernels fitting together so compactly that little or no space is wasted, (b) Indentation Kernels should be well dented but should not have pinched or long chaffy caps, (c) Uniformity. It is desirable that the kernels be uniform in shape and langth. No. 8. Seed Condition The germ of the kernel, the most nutritious portion and the portion in which is located the embyro plant, should be large, smooth and firm. The seed rendition can bf told, of course, to a large est nt j-.v '; Tt.-.tu-ss of tb ears.

No. 9. Proportion of Grain to Cob It is by the increased length of kernels in proportion to the diameter of the

cob that the percentage of grain is in- j creased. It is much better to select J for increased length of kernels than to select for small cobs. I Perhaps we have not mentioned all that should be said in connection with selecting good ears of corn, yet we believe this will be sufficient informa tion for any one to follow in selecting j ears for prize contests or for seed. Of j course, one would not care to take the time to go over each ear like this while husking in the field, but many of the points can be seen in the ears at a glance. Be sure to get hold of all the prize winners you can, and then let's all of use make up our minds to win the prizes at the corn school this winter, if there is one. Let's decide to make it look more Like a corn show than it did last year. "Local corn shows have come to be a powerful factor in the movement for better corn. They are instrumental in directing the attention of corn growers to the requirements of good corn. They stimulate friendly rivalry and at the same time stimulates a desire for information. They not only encourage the selection of ears which conform to the score card, but they also encourage the farmer to study cultural methods. "The value and good of the corn show does not end with the improve ment of the ear and yield of corn. It is doing much to bring the business man and farmer together and to unify their interests. It is tending to turn the attention of all the people to agriculture, which will mean much to the advancement of this industry to the state." CAMBRIDGE CITY, IND. CAMBRIDGE CITY. Ind., Nov. 11. Rev. James Shea has returned after several days spent with friends in Kentucky. Enoch Highley and daughter, Mrs. Willard Ulrich are spending a few days with friends in Indianapolis.

Mrs. May Boden and Mrs. Charles Kniese gave a beautiful instrumental duet, and Misses Gertrude Routh and Rose Greisinger in their vocal duets added much to the pleasure of the evening.

The

Scrap Book Blind Man's Buff. At a fashionable European hotel four plausible rogues not long ago treated themselves to a capital dinner in a private room and had no intention of paying for it. Having called the waiter and asked for the bill, one thrust his band into his pocket as if to draw out his purse. The second prevented him, declaring he would pay. The third did the same. The fourth forbade the waiter taking money from THEY SLIPPED OUT OF THE HOUSS. either of them, but all three persisted. As none would yield, one said: "The best way to decide is to blind fold the waiter, and whoever he catches shall settle the bill, while the others shall tip the waiter." This proposition was accepted, and while the waiter was groping his way about the room they slipped out of the house, one after another, and bolted. Let Us Smile. There is no room for sadness when Wf see a cheer y smile. It always has the same grood look if never out of style. It nerves us on to try again when failure makes us blue. The dimples of encouragement are good for me and you. It pays a higher interest, for it is merely lent It's worth a million dollars and doesn't cost a cent. According to Rule. Oberlin was the first coeducational college in this country. In the early days it had a rule that in case there were but one man and one woman in a room at least one chair should be between them. One evening an instructor, passing one of the small sitting rooms. Was horrified at beholding a young man and a young woman occupying the same chair. "Sir." he demanded of the man student, "what is the meaning of this outrageous behavior? Do you not know the rules of the college?" "Why or don't they say that if a man and a girl sit alone in a room they shall have one chair between them?" It Didn't Work. A man who lives far uptown in New York is not sure whether the joke is on him or on his wife. Here is how he ell.s it: "One night last week I thought I heard some one prowling about the house, and as. there have been a number of houses broken into lately I concluded that the noise was made by burglars. As I sat up in bed listening I chanced to glance into the next room, the door of our bedroom being open, and there, sure enough, stood a burglar coolly examiuing our silver plate. With this startling discovery came the chilling thought that I hadn't such a thins as a firearm in the house. But I determined to see what bluff would do. so. turning to my wife, I said in a loud voice: " 'Mary, Where's my revolver?' ' 'John,' she answered in a voice equally as loud, 'there isn't such a thing in the house, and you know it.' "After that 1 closed and locked the door and blew n police whistle." The Ruling Passion. An old Irishwoman, in describing a "gone but uot forgotten." said; "Mike was the foine man entoirely, and he'd be living now if it wasn't for the dhrink. He had a dog, and sure that baste would bring him home from the saloon whin he was so blind wid liquor he couldn't see a shtep before him. And whiu he died 'tis the truth I'm shpaking bis ghost walked at night, back and foorth, betune the saloon and his house, and bedad 'twas so dhrrunk his dog knew him:" OFFICE)

S;;t;ed Her Romance. I was blessed with a romantic brain, and a quiet, eren state of things coald not satisfy me for long. So the thought suddenly entered my head to bare my husband madly in love with me. One evening as we were promenading the bank of the Vistula, under those venerable trees which shaded the less unsophisticated loves of the beautiful Marie d'Arquin. I brought round the conversation to sentiment. I maintained that no happiness was possible on this earth except in a reciprocal attachment, both lively and enduring. My husband, after listening to me indulgently for a little while, looked at his watch, called my attention to the lateness of the hour, observed that our cousins were becoming very tiresome and that it was time to go in! From Countess Potocka's Memoirs.

Explained In Italian. A woman approached a policeman on Fourth avenue the other day and said, pointing to a wizened, forlorn looking Italian. "This man has asked me the way to Fourteenth street, but I can't make him understand how to get there." "Sure. I'll explain to him in I-talian." said the policeman. "Loob-a here. Michael-a. you walk-a right on-a this street-a two block-a till-a you come-a to a beeg-a, wide street-a. and that is eet." "Grazie!" acknowledged the Italian gratefully. "Me flnd-a heem!" New York Press. The Sensitive Jester. "De Wooze seemed to get mad because I didn't laugh at that weazened joke of his." "Humor him when you can. You see, De Wooze is the sort of humorist that expects somebody to smash the bass drum every time he chortles a pun." Cleveland Plain Dealer. Time and Money. The counterfeiter was in prison for ten years. "What are you doing here?" asked a visitor. "Passing time." "Ab! What for?" "Passing money." And the visitor passed on.
