The Corn Belt Can Be Removed
From Middle West to Southeast
Big Yields Result of Selected Seed---Heavy Bearing Corn of
Good Quality Not a Matter of Chance, But of Careful
Work---Any Farmer May Make Forty Bushels to the Acre.
Prosperity for the Southern farm
er Is just up the road a piece.
When it romes again it will eome In
fuller measure and in more splendid
proportions, because the Southern
farmer 1s turning now away from the
folly of a ‘one-crop system.
It doesn’t matter a particle that he
Is, through necessity, turning away
from the old methods; the important
thing Is that he Is getting away from
dependence In one crop—cotton.
It required a world upheaval, the
biggest war In the history of the world,
to impress upon the Southern farmer
the necessity of his becoming self-sus
taining to drive home the truth with
the proper force that the man who
depends all together on cotton farms
like the gambler who stakes every
thing on the turn of one card.
Already, for the past few years,
there has been progress made in corn
production In the Southeast. But eorn
has been raised more as a supplement
al crop than as a money crop. Ex
cept for the fact that during the past
few years Southern farmers have been
making more corn and hay than before
the establishment of the Boys’ Corn
Clubs -which have been wonderful
agencies—this country would be in a
far worse condition than it is at the
present time.
With the necessity of reduction of
cotton acreage confronting the South
ern farmer, the indications are that
more acreage than ever before will be
planted in corn next year. Corn is to
take Its place as a money crop.
The aim should be, therefore, to
make the yield as well as the acre
age break all records.
The Corn Belt can, in one single
year, he removed from the Middle
West to the Southeast.
It Ih plain to any man that there is
more profit in making four hundred
bushels of corn on ten acres than in
making the same amount on twenty
acres. It can be done. There are fe w
men In Georgia or South Carolina who
could not make forty bushels of corn
to the acre If they followed the princi
ples of good farming that have been
preached and demonstrated to them
for years past.
But the most Important step to tie
token lo Increase the corn yield Is the
very first step—the selection of goad
seed.
It Ih possible at this season of the
year to make a field selection of seed
earn, and that Is the surest and the
safest way.
In literature sent out from Clemson
College, W. L. Hutchinson, professor
of agronomy, advises that field selec
tion of seed corn be carried on Just
befori the corn Is guthered. Select
about fifty ears for each acre to be
planted, as the corn should go through
a germlnaatlon test later on and there
should be plenty of margin In the
amount selected
Three Important things to look for
In selection of seed corn are type of
stalk, height of ear on the staik and
growing conditions of the stalk.
Vigorous stalks that stand up
THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA.
straight should be selected. They
should be stout at the bottom and
tapering towards the top. Short stalks
are usually more desirable, all else be
ing equal.
Ears that are unusually high on the
stalk are undesirable. They are likely
to produce stalks with high ears, which
tend to make stalks top heavy. A
long shank Is likely to be Inherited and
Is a point to be avoided.
Do not select from a stalk that pro
duces a fine, heavy ear hut has grown
up in the center of a cleared space.
This stalk has gro#n under very fa
vorable conditions, probably, and there
is no reason to believe that seed taken
from it will do as well under average
conditions. Select rather from stalks
grown under average conditions, or
even under unfavorable conditions,
which have shown by yields better
than those of their neighbors that they
have been able to do better work with
equal opportunity
IF HER OR
