WHAT ABOUT YOURi • SEED CORN FOR 1912? Purdue University Agricultural Station Offers Some Valuable Suggestions The h'gh price of land and the increase in the value of the farm equipment make it very necessary that the farmer obtain the very best yields if he is to realize a reasonable rate of interest on hislinvesti ment. The yield of corn, the most important crop, can be increased as much as twenty per cent, by eliminating the seed ears that a e weak in vitality before planting time. Some recent germination tests conducted by the Indiana Agricul tural Experiment Station show that the corn saved last fall for seed is likely to be much poorer in vitality than is anticipated. There are two reasons for this condition wherever it exists. One is that the corn was delayed in maturing or drying last fall by the unusually wet weather during the months of September and October, and so was in poor condition to stand the severe freeze general over the state, which occurred on the first of November. The weather during the last two months has been more severe than usual, and where the corn has not been properly protected its vitality is pretty sure to be injured, depending upon the amount of moisture it contains. A few figures conservatively made will show the value of the germinator. The labor involved in testing enough corn to plant a 40 acre crop should not amount to more than $3.00. NoW, if the 40 acres would average 50 bushels per acre with a stand of 70 per cent., that usually secured without testing the seed, a stand of 90 per cent, which could be expected from testing seed, would produce a yield of 65 bushels per acre, an increase of 600 bueshels on the entire crop. The increase at 50 cents a bushel would amount to S3OO as a consequence of investing $3.00 in labor to test the seed before planting. HOW TO TEST YOUR CORN Take ordinary three-quarter inch lumber and make a shallow tray of convenient size, about two by three feet in size and about two and onehalf inches deep. The bottom can be made of soft pine three-eighths inch thick. With a gimlet bore holes through the edges of the box about one and one-half inches from the bottom, and one and five-eighths inches apart. Through these holes string light galvanized wire, about No. 12, in both directions, thus forming squares. Then fill the germinator with sand .or sawdust to the level of the wire. Earth is too sticky and unpleasant towojk with. Sand is the more preferable as it is clean and easy to work with. Each square accommodates a sample of five kernels taken from the various parts of the ear. With a germinator two bv three feet in dimensions, about 350 ears or about 4Yz bushels of corn can be tested at one time. When taking the samples some convenient method of keeping the ears and the samples straight so tha£ the ear whose sample shows up poorly in the germinator can be definitely located must be devised. Two boards, one by four inches, with plastering laths nailed to the edges about three inches apart with as many divisions as there are rows in the tester will make an inexpensive rack. Fill each row of squares in regular order, running from left to right. After the tester has been filled, the kernels should all be pressed part way into the sand and the sand thoroughly moistened Usually one moistening is sufficient for one test. When wetting the sand it is best to spread a towel over the kernels and apply the water over the cloth in order to prevent the kernels from being flooded out of their proper places. The tester is then covered with panes of glass resting somewhat loosely on the edges in order to allow for entrance of some air. The tester can then be set in a

place where the temperature is near 70 degrees F. during the day, and not falling below 50 degrees at night. It should not be put near a stove. In five days all kernels sufficiently strong to plant in the field should show well developed root and stem sprouts. Any ear of which more than one of the five kernels taken out fails to germinate should be discarded, and only those ears which have a perfect germination should be used, if one has a large enough lot of corn from which to choose. Enough corn should be tested so that after all the dead and weak ears have been discarded, enough will remain to permit of a rigid grading of the corn in order to remove all' the butt and tip kernels, as well as any other irregular, thin, and undersized kernels. Quite often a poor stand is secured because of 1 lack of uniformity in the size and shape of the seed, making it impos- ' sible for the planter to drop uniformly. The practice of rigid testing and grading seed corn will contribute more than any other one factor toward raising the average yield of the state.—C. O. Cromer, Assistant in Crops. THE LIBRARY MEETING. (Continued from Page One) ive towns and cities a public library is recognized as a necessity, and if it is necessary in towns and cities, it is equally so in the country. Your children come here to attend school and are either deprived of the use of the library or are allowed to use it as a concession. At any rate the library is not open to them except during the time when they are in school. If, then, books are of any value at all to students, these young people, the children of you who live in the country, are not on an equal footing with those who live in town. In other words, the country children do not have an equal chance with town children to prepare themselves for earning a living and for, enjoying life. This should not be so. “In an effort to make it easy for everybody to get books just when they want them, your library will put little temporary collections of books in country stores, school houses, or in private homes, in those communities that are farthest away from the central library. “These books will be of all sorts, some for adults, some for children, some serious, some popular. In so far as possible, they will be just what the people of the community want. “There is need in every community, be it urban or rursfiXor an intellectual center. Wat center in • this township, will, I hope, be the 1 public library. That is the natural place for the organization and meeting of clubs, debating teams, literary societies, historical and scientific associations, as well as civic leagues and improvement organizations among adults and children. The modern librarian takes an interest in all these things, often is very active in their organization, and always welcomes them to the library. All such clubs must base their studies, their reports and their i discussions on printed information and the library is therefore the logical center for their activities. “Teachers and pupils must have . reference books; children must be : guided in their story-reading, and in their choice of miscellaneous i books; men and women should have • access to good reading, and to referi ence books on the subjects in which they are interested. It matters not whether these people live on farms or on city lots, the demands for > books are about the same. Every citizen also, no matter where he lives, will feel the good influence that radiates from an active library through the clubs and societies and various organizations that spring up about the public library. “Here is a plan for co-operation that will make the town better, the township better, and all the people better, and will cost very little. I commend it to you.” The Journal SI.OO a year.
