A great many farmers who re gard themselves as quite careful in the selection of seed contend them- selivpa with making the selection at ' biding time or from the crjib, Ix- ing guided by the appearance of tbe ear. This is not suftcient, however, OjSecure the best results. Prof. H. J. Waters, dean of the Missouri Agricultural College, narrated a di rect experiment on this point. Tbe field! was gone through aud fine eursj were selected from the large, thrifty stalks having an abundant ledfj growth. Another lot of ears eqbil in size was gathered from stales smaller and less thrifty. Af ter the seed had been gatber d, the one lot could not be distinguished from the other so far as the ap pearimce of the ears went. The only difference was in the kind of stalk that produced the ears. A fieldj was planted with these two lots of seeds. All through the sea son that portion which had been grown from seed taken from the thrifty stalks could be distinguished from the planting nide from the seed taken from the less thrifty stalks. At harvest time the dtffer- 1 I ene in favor of the seed from the large, thrifty stalks with plenty of lewjf growth was seven bushels per aerie, land Prof. Waters thinks that if this process of selection was car ried on tor a series of years a rarie- ty of corn could be considerably im- ' u . . . uj . pnlveu en the one baud or almost ? I. ;' ki, , 1, eutiireiy run out on the other. It 1 follows, therefore, that the selection 111 ol seed ears from the same crib, be ing guided by size and general ap pearance of the ear simply, is not sufficient, and that it is quite as im portant to know the kind of stalk : r li .if nii.l 11 s r li.i c . . .ri . . . . v .j ,r . t I.. i , 1 , , ..... , know that the ear itself has the size, form, etc., which suit the pur poses of the f aruter.
