Corn Growers’ Association.

The ninth annual meeting of the Indiana Corn Growers* Association will be held January 13, 1909, at Purdue University, Lafayette. The meeting will be held in connection with the Farmers’ Short Course, receiving a most prominent place on the program for the week. It is found that by holding the association meeting at this time and in connection with the Farmers’ Short Course that-the speakers secured at a great cost, are heard by a larger number of farmers and that there is a great financial saving both to the individual members and the association. The program this year is an unusually attractive, and strong one. Prof. W. H. Stevenson, of the Soil Department of the lowa State College, will discuss “The Conservation of the Soil”; Mr. A. E. Reynolds, President of the Crabbs, Reynolds, Taylor Co., of Crawfordsville, will discuss “Pure Clover Seed and How to Obtain It’’ DeWitt C. Wing, Associate Editor of the Breeders’ Gaette, Chicago, will give a talk on "More corn to the acre” while C. A. Rowe, of Jacksonville, 111, Prwtfdent of the Illinois Corn Growers’ Association, will criticise the exhibits of corn at the state show.
