SEED WITH ANCESTORS elements and use them profit-
VALUABLE Farmers in Ohio
are growing 160 bushels of
corn to the acre on ten-acre
fields. Some beftter this even.
Their ground is no better than
ours; they do not have any
thing on us in climate. Why
shouldn't we grow more corn to
the acre. It doesn't matter if
the fields are) smaller in size.
To get this yield requires, of
course, good soil to start with.
This soil must receive suitable
quantities of the right sort of
fertilizer to supplement that al
ready in the soil. But other
than the soil and the fertilizer
there must be reliable see'd.
Did you know that there is an
inherent ability to use the food
elements of the soil stored up in
the seed. Some seed can use
a certain amount of these feed
at what time of day you come
