PREPARE FOR A PROFITABLE
CROP NEXT YEAR—GATHER
AND CAREFULLY PRESERVE A
SUPPLY OF GOOD SEED
Autumn is the time to prepare for
a profitable corn crop the follewing
season. At corn-ripening time drop all
other business and select an abun
dance of seed corn. The process is
too important to be conducted inci
dentally while husking. When select
ing seed corn give the process your
entire attention. Get the very best
that is to be had and preserve it well,
and your increased yields will return
you more than any other work you
can do on your farm.
In 13 years’ investigation conducted
upon Ssioto river bottom soil near Pi
keton Ohio, with Woodburn White
Dent, U. S. Selection 77, the yield was
raised from an average of 63 bushels
of dry shelied corn from 1901 to 1907
to an average of 75 bushels from 1907
to 1913. The principal influence pro
ducing this increase in yicld was the
selection and the care of seed corn.
The only proper way to select seed
corn is from the stalks standing
where they grew, as soon as ripe and
before the first hard freeze. As soon
as the crop ripens go through the field
with seed-picking bags and husk the
ears from the stalks that have pro
duced the most corn without having
any special advantage such as space,
moisture, or fertility. Aveid the large
ears on stalks standing singly with
an unusual amount of space around
them. Preference should be given the
plants that have produced most heav
ily in competition with a full stand
of less productive plants. In all local
ities the inherent tendency of the
plant to produce heavily of sound, dry,
shelled corn is of most importance.
Late-maturing plants with ears which
are heavy because of an excessive
amount of sap should be ignored. Sap
piness greatly increases the weight
and is likely to destroy the quality. In
the Central and Southern States, all
other things being equal, short, thick
stalks are preferable. Short stalks
are not so easily blown down and per
mit thicker planting. Thick stalks
are not so easily broken down, and in
general are more productive than slen
der ones. The tendency for corn to
produce suckers is heritary. Other
things being equal, seed should be
taken from stalks that have no suck
ers.
The same day seed corn is gathered
the husked ears should be put in 2
diy place where there is free circula
tion of air and placed in such a man
ner that the ears do not touch each
other. This is the only safe proce
,dure. Good seed is repeatedly ruined
because it is thought to be already
dry enough when gathered and that
the precaution mentioned above is un
necessary. Many farmers believe
ithat their autumns are so dry that
such care is superfluous. Seed corn in

THE CORDELE DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 11, 1916.
FIRE ON BURMNING OCEAN
LINER WAS CONTROLLED
New York, Oct. 10.—The rescued
crew of twenty-nine men of the Ward
liner Antilla, which was afire oft
Cape Henry yesterday, reached here
today on the Monroe Castle, also a
Ward liner, which arrived from Ha
vana.
Captain Blackadder, of the Antil
'a, hig three mates and his small
daughter, were - taken aboard the
coast guard cutter Onondaga, which
stood by the burning vessel.
The Antilla, towed by tugs, is ex
pected to arrive in Hampton Recads
late today. The flames are reported
under control. °*
STURGEON FISHING IN FLINT ;
IS PROF!ITABLE OCCUPATION
Bainbridge, Oct. 9.—Sturgeon fish
ing in the Flint river is becoming a
very profitable employment among the
farmers of this county who live along
the banks of that stream. With crops
about gathered many are devoting
most of their time to this activity and
some are being well repaid. The fish
range in weight from 60 to 260 pounds
and they sell readily on the local
market at 10 cents per pound. The
roe is shipped to New York where it
brings a fancy pirce. One man and
his sons have marketed several hun
dred dollars’ worth of sturgeon fish
and roe.
DONALSONVILLE FAIR LAST
WEEK WAS GREAT SUCCESS
Bainbridge, Oct. 10.—So0 successful
was the Southwest Georgia Fair in
Donalsonville in this county last week
that there is no doubt that it will be
held now as an . annual institution.
Thousands of peopie threnged the
grounds and buildings each day and
it iz estimated that 25.000 people were
present during the five days. The
oxhibits atiracted the admiration of
211 who saw hem. The live stock was
unexcelled and most of it came from
the farms surrcunding Donalsonviile.
The dispiay of cured meats was mar
velous, some hams weighing as much
as 50 pounds.
YOUNG BOY KILLED WHEN
GUN IS FIRED BY PLAYMATES
Moultrie, Qct. 10.—Paul Fussell, the
six-year-old son of C. W. Fussell, was
accidently shot and killed this after
noon. The other boys, sons of J. T.
Brownlee, who was dangerously cut
in an altercation with J. H. Cook Sai
urday, were playing with him at the
time, and one of them. though neither
will say which, held the shotgun when
it was discharged, it is said.
The entire load struck the little boy
in his neck, tearing a hole an inch
in diameter. A piece of flesh plowed
out by the bunched shot was found
more than twenty feet from the spot
where the victim fell dead.
The accident occurred at the Brown
lee home, where the Fussefil family
wvere spending the afternoon.
‘time will be benefited by drying as
‘sugzested. If left in the husk long af
iter ripening it may sprout or mildew
%du!‘iug warm, wet weather or hecome
infested with weevils. The vitality
‘ol‘ seed is often reduced by leaving
% it in a sack or in a pile for even a day
‘after gathering. During warm weath
‘er, with some moisture in the cobs
and kernels, the ears heat or mildew
in a remarkably short time. The hest
possible treatment immediately after
gathering is to siring the ears. Ordi
narily the best place to hang strings
of ears is in an open shed or loft, Wire
racks are more convenient and are
cheaper than binder wire.
