Then s. Jr.. 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 '.
About the most dangerous the if t '
in the world is thinking you can]
whip a man you can't.
