R. Hudson, veteran exten sion worker and successful corn grower at State College. "A horse or mule will need about 60 bushels, the cow will need at least 15 bushels as meal, the hogs and chickens must have an ample supply and the folks will need some for food. At our present rate of yield, 20 bushels an acre, it will take five acres to supply the hundred bushels needed, but why cultivate this acreage when three acres can easily be made to produce enough. Some farmers grow 100 bushels on one acre " Mr. Hudson says that the es sentials for successful corn growing are an adequate sup ply of food, especially nitrogen, an abundance of moisture, pro lific seed corn and such culti vation as will permit the corn to yield its best. Unless the soil is fertile some extra nitrogen will be needed in addition to the regular fer tilizer. Good cultivation also shows up well when rainfall is light. Deep cultivation is not advised by Mr- Hudson after the corn begins to grow well. PAGE FIVE The turn plow is effective for breaking- land but a poor tool for cultivation Follow the good practice of giving a fre quent, shallow cultivation to keep down weeds and retain the soil moisture, he advises. Many farmers are now using a good improved, prolific seed corn but too many continue to plant any old seed that may ba on hand. This is poor economy, says Mr. Hudson. The good farmer must have good seed. He doesn't want to throw away his labor on poor yields. It is proposed to permit American women who marry foreigners to retain their citi zenship. But it is doubtful any law will enable them to ree tain their money.
