Select Corn Seed
Early In The Fall
While Plant Is Still Growing And Can
Be Studied
LOY E. RAST, Georgia State College
Of Agriculture
The best place to get seed corn is
in your own corn field. The time to
select it is while the stalk is still
growing in the field. Pass down be
tween two rows and mark the stand
ard, high yielding plants, by tying
strips of cloth to them. When har
vesting, have a barrel or box in the
wagon bed into which throw ears
from these plants to keep them sepa
rate from those in the bed of the
wagon.
A medium sized, sturdy looking
plant on which are two or more good
ears, the variety being prolific, are
preferred for southern conditions. The
ears should be located about the mid
dle or a little below the middle of
the stalk.
Experiments have revealed that the
practice of pulling fodder is quite in
jurious to seed corn and that it re
duces yields of stalks from which
“During this investigation,
mar.y manufacturers when
asked the percentage cf wool
in their leading numbers
pleaded ignorance. They
knew nothing of the kind of
wool or the dyes U3ed in the
fabrics” —from a report of the
United States Department of
Commerce after an investigation
of the clothes-making industry,
page 149.
it is removed. Ears attached to long,
slender' shanks are preferred. These
shanks weaken and allow the tip ot
the ear to droop, so as to shed water
and also escape some of the damage
from birds.
When the time comes to husk the
seed corn and select the best from
the collection, choose ears that have
a uniform diameter well down to the
tip. Extra large ears of the prolific
corn are usually produced at expense
of the total yield. Medium good sized
ears are more to be relied upon than
the extra large sized, however. Ears
likely to give best results are those
on which the grains are well formed
to the very tip.
If good results are obtained by se
lecting seed in this way, the selection
from this strain should be kept up
each year until its best characteristics
have become fixed.
Hard flinty kernels of any dent corn
have a higher feeding value and are
more resistant to the corn weevil. No
corn should be planted which does not
show 90 per cent germination. Put
ten kernels from an ear in a box of
sand. If 9 of the ten germinate, the
ear is worth planting. But a further
precaution can be taken by pulling
up the plants and noting which ears
have shown the best root development
in the germination test. It has been
shown that the ears showing best in
this, regard yield best in the field
In the light of this startling
statement by the United States
Government, it is interesting
to know that in Kirschbaum
Clothes nothing but pure all
wool fabrics are used.

The corn to be used for" seed should
be shelled by hand to prevent the clip
ping of grains by a sheller. Later on
something will be said about the breed

breeding patch.
Hundreds Visited College Farm
During August and September each
year there are automobile excursions
of farmers to visit the farm of the
State College of Agriculture. These
come in parties of from 75 to 300.
Eight or ten counties have sent dele
gations. They have proven profitable
and enjoyable occasions, and farmers
are glad to repeat the visit each year.
