SEED SELEt HON iMI’OIM \ VI Putnam County farmers who are no t successful in the improvement <f th' 1 i|uality and yield of their corn •nips, find that thoie is no work at this season which is more remunerative than the field -election and storage of their eed corn to be use I next year. Hecause of this experience every Putninn Coiintv farmer i. ad-

vised to do likewise.

Although farmers are not much concerned thi- fall about the seed corn situation bemuse of the satisfactory maturity of the cnin they will profit most who follow the example of the best corn growers and elect their -eeil in the field from strong and healthy stalk-. This work may he started as soon a- the husks have turned yellow. Select er. of good type, at a convenient length that allow ears to ilrop moderately. If : eed corn is .-idecteil before a killing frost is it should he, the leaves should he gieen and the stalk still alive, which ■ire indkatio ,s that the plant- are healthy and vigorous. Avoid chaffy

Furthermore, much of oar local food supply i- destroyed. Such crop- a- banana* destroyed and it will require a year er more to come hack to normal production. Consequently the poor people who have depended on these local foods will find themselves in

hard lines.
