SEED SELECTION IN THE FIELD.
Autumn is the time to prepare for a
profitable corn crop the following sea-
Son. At corn-ripening time drop all
other business and select an abunrfance
of seed corn, The process is too im
portant to be conducted incidentally
while husking. When selecting seed
corn give the process your entire atten—
tion. Get the very best that is to be
had and preserve ?’t well, and your in
creased ylelds will return you more
profit than any other work you can do
on your farm,
In thirteen years' investigations con
ducted upon Scioto River Tmottom soil,
near Pikoton‘ Ohio, with Woedburn
White Dent, U. § Selection 77, the yield
was raised from an average of 63 bush
els of dry shelled corn from 1301 to )m
to an average of 75 bushels from 1
to 1813, The principal influence pro
ducing this increase in yield was the
selection and the care of seed corn,
The only proper way to select seed
corn is from the stalks ltandln(f where
they grow, as soon as ripe and before
the first hard freeze. As soon as the
crop ripens, go through the fleld with
seed-plcking bags, and husk the ears
from the stalks that have produced the
most corn without having any special
advantages such as space, moisture or
fertility. Avoid 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 heavily in competition
with a full stand of less productive
plants. In all localities 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 becauses of an ex
cessive amount of sap should be ignored.
Sappiness greatly increases the weight
and is likely to destroy the gunllty. Il‘
the Central and SOu&urn tates, al
other things boxng equal, short, thick
stalks are Fre(en le Short staiks are
not so easily blown down‘land permit
thicker planting. Thick stalks are not
80 easily browen down and in general
are more productive than slender ones,
The tendeney for corn to produce suck
ers is hemcfitar{. Other things being
equal, seed should be taken from stalks
that have no suckers.
The same day seed corn ig gathered
the husked ears should be put in a
dry place where there {s free circula
tion of air and placed in such a manner
that the ears d'; not touch each other.
This Is the only safe procedure. Good
seed Is repeatedly ruined because it"lsg
thought to be already dry enough when
gathered and that the precaution men
tioned above {s unnecessary. Many
farmers believe that their autumns are
s 0 dry that such care is superfluous.
Seed corn in every locality gathered at
ripening time will be benefited by dry
ing as suggested. If left in the husk
long after ripening it may sprout or
milgaw during warm, wet weather or
become infesteq with weevils. The vl-‘
tality of seed is often redueced by leaving
it in a sack or in a plle for even a
day after gathering. During warm
weather, with some molsture in the
cobs and kernels, the ears heat or mil
dew in a remarkably short time. The
‘best possible treatment immediately
‘uher gatherlng is to string the ears.
Ordinarily the best place to hang strings
‘of ears is in an open shed or loft. Wire
racks are more convenient, and in the
end cheaper than binder twine. Such
racks may be made from electrically
welded lawn fencing. The cutting of
the fencing into seed corn racks is done
without any waste,
- Only during unusually damp weather
at seed ?therlng time will fire be nece
essary. If heat is rmPMynd in a poorly
ventilated room it will do the seed ears
more infury than good. If used, the fire
should be slow, long continued and sit
uated bhelow the seed ears, with good
ventilation above them.
After hanging In the shed or lying on
the racks for two months, the seed
ears should be as dry as a bone and
contain less than 10 per cent of moisture,
| They can remain where they dried or
[ha stored lin mouseproof barrels, boxes
or crates during the winter, but in
loit%flr ('Lw they must not be exposed to
A damp atmosphere, or they will ab
sorb molsture and be l:{]urod Some
farmers place the thoroughly dried seed
eare in the center of a wheat bin and
fill the bin with loose, dry wheat.
In Jocalities whera weevils and grain
| moths injure stored gra'n, the thor
oughlv dry seed ears should be stored in

inclosed for each bushel of corn. Thia‘
quantity tightly inclosed with the com‘
will prevnt damage from these insects
and will not injure the seed. If at any
time signs of weevils or grain moths |
show on the corn, it should be inclosed
with carbon bisulphid In praectically air
tight rooms, bins, boxes or barrels for
forty-eight hours. The bisulphid should !
be placed in shallow dishes or pans on

ficlent for a box or barrel holding 10
bushels or less. Qne pound is sufficient
for a room or bin 10 feet each Way.
After fumigation the ears should bs‘
thoroughly aired, taking care that n
fire is presnt when the fumigating box
is opened.
11. THE HARVEST,
On many well-managed farms the
work of hnrvestlnfi and ltorln, the corn
crop begins with the filling of the silo.
Corn is one of the best orops for this
purpose, if not the very best, Sorghum
stands dr{v weather much better than
corn and for driy regions is a surer crop,
but it is more {nclined to fall down and
become tun{led than corn, thus making
it somewhat more difficult to place in
the silo. This difficulty is overcome to
& large extent by growinfi the two
¢rops together, and the silage made
from these two crops grown together is
usually superior to that from either
croe grown se{)arately.
When the sllo first eame into use it
was thought necessary to fill it with
very firean, succulent growth. This is
now known to be an erroneous idea,
and the sllo is regarded much as a
storeroom or food Irenrver. the value
of the slla? depending to a very great
extent on the nutritive value of the crop
with which the silo is filled. To this
end it i{s advisable that the corn shall
have reached a degree of ripeness in
dicated by rather hard, well dented or
glued kernels and 'partlally dried husks
efore it is placed in the silo. There is
& week or ten days when the ears are
In this condition and the stalks still con
taln sufficient sap to cause the silage
to pack well in the silo. It is even
better to add a little water to accom
plish the latter purpose than to cut
the crop before it has attained its full
feeding value. .
strlpglng.
In some sections the practice of strlg-‘
Flng the blades by hlnc{’from the stand
ing stalks wag for years one of the
established ogerauona in connection with
‘harvesting the corn crop. The blades
‘when thus gathered and well stored fur
nish an excellent forage, but there are
now cheaper methu{- of harvésting
without any loss in quality.
Topping.
It is still quite a common &racuoe in
some localities to top the stalks by cut
ting them just above the ear. By this
method the portion of the stalk which is
eaten by stock most readily and with
least waste is obtained. When the
grain is late in maturing, or wet fall
weather prevents the groper drawing of
the rlpenlng. ears, the (opglng of the
corn may found advisable. If the
ears have become hard, the kernels
dented, and the husks partly dry be
fore the tor ing is performed, no reduc
tion in ¥e?d will result. A heavy
growth of cowpeas may make the cut
'”"(f of the entire plant impracticable
and warrant the tgsping of the crop.
If the corn is desir for seed, toppinf
will facilitate the drf'lng of the ears and
thus make it possible to select the seed
}before it is Injured by freezing. Ordi
' narily, however, it {8 found more ex
pensive to top & corn crop than to cut
and shock the entire plant.
Cutting, Shocking and Husking.
Over large areas in the principal
’corn-cmwln% States corn is grown pri
| marily for the grain, and each farmer
'decides for himself how much of the
crop will be cut. This is usually deter
' mined by cuttinf Just enough to feed
' the animals maintained on the farm.
' The chief obfjectlon to this method is
‘lhl& many farmers do not maintain
enough animals to consume all of the
| corn stover produced. If the ears are
' gathered from the standing stalks and
I no use i{s made of the stover, fully one
| third of the cror is wasted. The term
| “fodder” s applied to the entire plant
' as ordinarily cut and shocked, while the
term ‘“‘stover’”’ {s applied to the por
tion remaining after the ears have been
- pulled or husked. ¥
Generally lpukln,. there is little dif
ference in cost between husking and
crlbblu corn from the shock and husk
ing a eribbing it from the standin
stalk. In rme sections men will hul:
from standing stalks at a lower price
than from shocks, but the cost of teams,
although they are not usually very busy
with other work durlni corn-husking
season, must be taken Into considera
tion. Considering the expense of husk
ing from the smndlnfl stalk and from
the shock as equal, is evident that
the stover has bheen obtained for the
money‘Jmld for having the corn cut and
shocked. This cost of cutting and
|hockln’ is very much less than the
value of the stover. If it be Jaroperly
stored and fed. If left in the field un
til February or March exposed to the
winds and ralns of winter, it is ques
tionable whether its feeding value is
loqusl to the cost of cutting and shock
ng.
”hou are sections In the Central and
Southern Btates where the soll Is rich
and the growing season long, causing
the corn to make a large, tel) growth
of stalk, which does not furnish a good
quality of stover. In such sections it
may be better to obtain the necessary
quantity of forage by cutting several
hay crops uct:r{ur than b{‘uvmg the
corn stover, is is especially true In
localities where warm, damp weather
causes the corn stover to lose its feed-
In’ value ngldly.
erku;s the ears and astoring them
unhusk is a method of %“arvesting
employed In some sections, especially in
the South, where the lrrument uluully‘
given In its favor is that {f the husks are
on the ears, they are more protected
from the grain weevil. The dutructlon‘
of corn by this Insect is one of the
drawbacks to more extensive culture ln‘
the Bouth. As soon as the corn br‘
comes dry onm’x'sh to crib, weevils are
frequently sou working wunder mo\
hul}u on the kernels of the ears, some
times to the numiber of 30 or more to
the ear. It {8 & question whether the
corn is more urlmflly injured by trans
ferring the weevil with the unhusked
ears to the crib, than would result were
the corn husked in the fleld, cnulln,‘
the weevils to drop to the ground an
thereby leaving most of them lin the
flelds.
The total amount of work required to
jerk the corn and afterwards husk It is
ocnsiderably vasur than that required
to husk It directly from the standing
stalk, and the quantity of for.’a ob
tained by -tnorin’ the husks Is not
sufficlent to fly or the extra pork.
Much better forage oould be objhined
more cheaply by other methods. If the
husks are uold' advantageously for mat
tress making it is well to rflofln the
two operations of jerking the ears and
afterwards husking them in & manner
that will furnish husks of good qu.m(,;
The prngorunn of husk varies greatly
among the different kisds of corn, but
it Is sufficient to say that It requires
fully one-half more room to store the
ears unhusked than husked.
In sections where the farms range in
area from 80 to 160 acres and diversi.

Officials of the Southeastern Fair
Association Wednesday were arrang
ing to close the exposition at Lake
wood over Sunday, in compliance
with a resolution passed by the ex
ecutive council Tuesday.
The resolution set forth that it was
against the judgment of the directors
to close the fair Sunday, but at the
insistent request of the ministers of
the city it would be done, although it
would mean a financial loss to the
organization. Those who had urged
the fair to close were asked to co
operate with the association in in
creasing the crowds every other day,
The following statement was issued
Wednesday by Dr. Dunbar Qgden, the
chairman of the ministers’ commit
tee:
To the Ministers of Atlanta.
Your committee, together with
a large group of leading business
men of the thy, met with the ex
ecutive councll of the Southeast
ern Fair on Tuesday, October 10,
and requested them not to open
the fair grounds on Sunday.
We were received in a most cor
dial way, and the meeting was
entirely i’\armonlous. Our plea
was agalnst the demoralization
and commerclalization of the
Christian Sabbath, which as a
day of rest and of worship has
meant go much in the making of
the moral character of our city.
I am glad to report to you that
the executive council acceded to
our request and that the fair
will be entirely closed on Sunday,
In the course of our discussion
the president of the Falr As
coclation told us of the earnest
effort belng made to ellminate
every objectionable feature. As
{llustrations he sald that no
bookmaking would be allowed In
connection with the race track,
and no indecent dancing in the
amusement concessions
We recognize that in the con
duct of an enterprise of this sort
it is difficult to keep out all ob-
Jeetionable features, but we re
jolee In this assurance that the
officials of the fair are seeking to
reduce them to a minimum,
We ask you to co-operate ac
tively in making the fair a suc
cess, and to give the widest pub
licity to the action of the council
touching the Sunday closing.
Mayor Regrets Fair
Will Close Sunday
Mayor Woodward said Wednesday
that the action of the xecutive coun
cil of the Southeastern Fair Associa
tion in ylelding to the protest against
keeping the fair open on Sunday was
a bad mistake,
“I spoke and voted against chang¥®
ing our Plln to keep the fair open on
Snuday,” he sald. “The thousands of
people who have been visiting the
fair grounds on Bunday is proof that
the people who have to work all week
want somewhere to go on the day of
rest,
“I was the only one who took such a
position. The others ate crow.”
Owing to the raln last Sunday after
noon, the annual parade of the Old
Guard Battalion was postponed until
next Bunday afternoon. The comrades
will assemble at the Hotel Ansley at 2
o'clock, in full uniform, with shako,
sword and gloves,
They will march out Peachtree street
to Pledmont Park, where they wlll palce
floral tributeg on the peace monument,
ployed in place of sheets, but the sheets
are lighter and in every way more sat
isfactory. During very dry and windy
weather corn ghould not be husked from
the shock, as the loss of stover s too
great. Calm days when the fodder is
slightly damp are {deal for husking
shocked corn.
Binders,
The corn binder with b?ndh carrier
is satisfactorily used in cu tl:x corn of
average or small size on lw that Is
not very steep or atumg. On the gom
?fll‘ltl'clg level ?rnrlo nd of the North
“entral States the corn binder s very
generally used in cutting and shocking
corn. In light corn or on level land two
horses will suffice, but for faster work
or heavy corn the use of three or sous
horses is much more satisfactory., Three
men, one to run the binder and two to
shock, and two teams can cut and shock
about 7 acres of corn a day. However,
conditions vary to such an extent re
flrdlng the weight of the corn crop, the
.g of the land, etc., that it is impos
sible to give figures that will apply to
all cases. In sections where the corn
binder is succeasfully used the principal
ob‘ocuom to its ume are the cost of |
twine which remains upon the fodder
but a short. time and the knocking off of
ears In the process of binding. In 11-‘
most all cases the (Lulfltl!y of ecorn
knocked off by the binder Is great
enou“h to warrant driving & wagon over
the fleld ang 'ruhcfln. the ears from |
the ground after the corn is cut and
shocked. This is necessary, because the
presence of the shocks in the fleld pre
vents the turning in of hogs or cattle
to'sther up the ears knocked off by the
binder. ‘
The use of a binder with & bundle
carrier saves very much of the hand
labor of cutting and shocking, and the
greater ease of handling the fodder
when M\nol into bundles of convenjent
size saves labor enough to compensate
for the twine used. ‘
The stubble cutter should be attached
to the corn binder whenever possible,

Muskers and Shredders, |
The use of shredding machines is quite
general In many corn-growing nw"?nnl
Sometimes the machines are usd for
lhr«!dlnfl‘lhc stover after the eary have
been husked from the shoeks by hand,
and in other cases both the husking and
shredding are done by the machine, The
shradding of the stover puts it in & more

Asa Candler Talks
Sense to Credit Men
An unusually large attendance of
members of the Atlanta Association of
Credit Men were pruomi at the monthly
meeting Tuesday nlght n the Pledmont
Hotel to hear Asa G. Candler, the next
Mayor of Atlanta, who was the guest
of honor and lpo:kor of the evening.
Mr. Candler contrasted the modern
methods of effciency and credit reports
with the old haphazard credit inquiries
of twenty ge‘rs ago, when he was en-
EN in the wholesale business in At
nta. Modern organizations of busi
ness, however, have one disavantage,
which I 8 the tendency to ellminate the
element of pe:rmal assoclation and per
sonal responsibility from commercial
transactions. The formula for success
in busjness does not consist in reliance
ugon systems, Information and methods
obtained from others, Nr, Candler de
clared, but upon individual effort.
Mr. Candler was warmly greeted by
the credit men and his remarks were re
celved with enthusiastic applause. Oth
ers who :rokr were P, P. Hanley and
John M. Harrison, on the Importance of
fire insurance as a factor in credits; H.
S. Collingsworth, chairman of the mem
berlhlr committee of the assoclation, on
the g{nns for enlisting new members,
and H. D. Carter, president of the as

ported a proposal to add more men to
the police force to preserve order in
the city. Mr. Johnson has been out

mistake until his return
His statement follows:
“l am surprised to learn that dur

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—The In
terstate Commerce Commission to
day set November § and November
20 as the dates upon which hear
ings will be conducted in Atlanta on
railroad rate matters wherein At
lanta shippers have complained of
unjust treatment at the hands of the
railroads
An indication of the importance to
which the commission attaches to
the complaint of the city of Atlanta
and others against the Southern
Railway and others is shown by the
fact that one of the commissioners,
Judson . Clements, will hear testi
mony in this case on November 20.
Commissioner Clements is a Geor
gian and is more than ordinarily fa
miliar with the case., It ig very un
usual, however, for members of the
commission to hear complaints out
side of Washington, as their weork
here prevents their leaving the ecity
as a usual thing.
This is the case in which Atlanta
alleges unjust increases as a result
of the readjustments in rates brought
about by the commission’s order in
reference to violations in southeast
ern territory of sections of the inter
state commerce laws.
Examiner George C. Bell will hear
arguments and testimony on Novem
ber 6 in the cases of the Coca-€ola
Company versus the A. T. and S. F.
Railway Company, the Atlanta
Freight Bureau versus the Southern
Railway and others, and the Atlanta
Freight Bureau versus the Louisville

SAVANNAH, Oct, 11.—At the an
nual meeting of the officers and di
rectors of the Central of Georgla

port shows the total operating reve
rues for 1916 to be sl2 587,681 as com
pared to $12,108,184 for 1915, a gain
of $459,433,
The total operating expenses for
this year are $8,845067, as compared
to $8,973,511 for 1915, a deerease of
$128,444. The net revenues are shown
to be $3,722,067 for this year against
$87.878.
A feature of the report is the ex
tra net dividend of $399,840 recelved
from the Ocean Steamship Company,
of Savannah, a branch of the Cen
tral. This company during the past
year has operating some of its steam
ers, formerly used up and down the
