Wichita ranch owner, will conduct tin' experiments with 1 co-operation from exports of the; Kansas State \grieiiltural College. Sconce is collecting approximate j ly 50,(100 ears of corn, representing) 20 Mil let les of the best drought resistant earh maturing grain. SEVIN YEARS It is believed that it will ink i ! years o complete the expen..lent* The on tiiod for determining the best grain will be by elimination of the unfit and by breeding the best var iations together. I'here will be cro- byhridijing within and between varieties. Spe j rial strains and lines will be devel oped to bring < .it desired character istics. STRONG WINDS The severe winds which blow across the plans of western Kansas are frequently destructive to corn plants. When these winds mj accompan ied with rain or had. they otten I lower entire corn fields. One of the chief requirements for the new corn gram to be developed is that the corn stalks trey produc*' must be strong enough ’o rests* heavy winds. As much of the Kansas corn is ruined in the fertilising period of the young kernel by beat destroy ing the pollen, efforts will also be centered upon plants that will fer tilise the young ears eitnri before or after the periods of extreme heat. An elaborate system of records will be kept. The progress »f . avh ear of corn planted will be noted and recorded for refer'a '.
