PETITION GOVERilOn TO SET AS'EH DAY
FOR CIIOOSMG SEED Indiana com growers have arranged to petition Governor Ralston to Issue a proclamation setting aside a day, some time in October, for alT fanners in the state to select their seed corn. This petition will be submitted with. In a few days by Prof. Christie of Purdue university, and Joseph Helms, a Wayne county farmer, who in 1913 won the state and national trophies tor tne nest ear of corn grown that year. . "If all Indiana corn growers would select their seed corn when the corn was in its most virile condition, to be used m planting the following year, the corn crop of this Btate would be improved fifty per cent," Helms said today. "At the present time it is impossible to decide just what data next month should be designated by the governor as seed corn gathering day. A few days before the members of our committee decide that the proper time for such action has arrived, we will notify the governor and be will then issue a proclamation setting forth the date for the gathering of the seed. "Indiana farmers as a rule have never been careful in the selection of seed corn. Many do not select their corn until a few days before they start their spring planting, taking the seed from the cribs. Seed corn should always be gathered while the ears are on the stocks and just at the time it has reached full maturity. - "The Indiana corn crop is not made yet. Late summer rains and extremely hot early fall weather has kept the crop growing all the time and a severe frost now would do great damage. If the present mild weather continues for three weeks longer the ' finest corn crop yielded in Indiana in many years will have been gathered in." . STORM APPROACHING The passing of the sun across the equator does not cause a storm over the entire country, declared W. E. Moore today, in forecasting an approaching storm which he said would popularly be termed an equinoctial storm. A great area of low barometric pressure, the largest of the season, covers the Rocky mountain plateau, Mr. Moore said, and is central over NewMexico. It is moving slowly northeast and is causing rain storms and wind. It will be followed by cool weather.
