If this, appar ent ignorance were;, confined to those whose knowledge of the laws SELECTION AND BREEDIN6 OF PLANTS Continued from first page, most important fields for the breeder. Farmers . often suffer gleatloss by paying high prices formally good seed but which are noVadapted to their local condi tions. There is a growing demand for the production of varities suit able to the soil and climate of the region where they are grown. The range of adaptibility of the varie ties has never been so determined that with known soil and climate conditions growers can intelligent ly buy seed for planting. How ever, with proper study it will be possible for the breeder to produce seed specially adapted to particu- lar sections. There is a broad field of usefulness for men trained for this kind of work. WHAT CONSTITUTES GOOD PLANTS, Every farmer expects to grow plants like those from which he obtained seed ; but in every field t.harn will be found plants that ard much above the average in value and others that are much below the average. It is by this variation that we are enabled to improve our crops. We can bring the average of plants up to the basis of the best plants by contin ually selecting seed from only the . best plants. But let us thorough ly understand what constitutes a good plant. There are many details of interest, but briefly a good plant is one which produces a maximum amount of fruit of the best quality and has these characteristics so well established that "they are re produced in succeeding genera tions. It requires careful work for several generations to get these characters fixed or to cause the plant to acquire the habit of doing certain things in the way we want them done. FIXED AND AOQUIEBD CHARACTERS. But the qualities of plants are due to two very different and lm porta ut causes. These the plant breeders must be able to distin guieh if they expect to get the best results from their work. Ex cellence may be either inherent or extranious. One plant is good because its ancestors for several generations have been good and therefore it cannot very well be otherwise. It will in its turn transmit these qualities to its off spring. When a habit becomes fixed or as we might say, when the plant becomes educated or v trained to do certain things it will always do these things when con ditions are such that it can do them. Of course there will be some variations and probably an occasional reversion to original type, but these two matters are inconsiderate so far as general re I suits are concerned. Another plant is a good one because its envir nment the present season has been favorable enough to makt- it good, but it has very lit tle power or prepotency, as the stock breeders say, to reproduce these good good qualities in the next generation. A plant may stand where there was a pile of compost or where some fertilizer spilled and may really be a very fine plant, but we would not se lect it for propagation. For this reason a variety of cotton that the grower advertises as having made two bales per acre or a variety of corn that has made a. hundred .bushels per acre are not necessari ly good varities. If we could "buy along with these varities the cli mate, soil fertilizers and good cultivations which made the big yield then we would probably ge t as -good results. Therefore, the farmer will be careful in breeding work to select such plants as have their desirable make-up due to their having inherited it rather than those whose good make-up ia due to good surroundings. It is exceedingly difficult to carry from one generation to another Axcellehce which is the sole pro duct Of environment unless the environment be carred along with it. These good qualities are arti ficial and are retained only by fcv ceasless vigiJanoe. If the good variety? is' neglected it gradually returifto its orginal type. Upon? general principles, there fore, the best variety that a farm er can nave is that which he grows and properly, improves upon his own soil. Furthermore, these home-grown plants seems to have something more or less human about them. It seems that they finally become to understand what is expected of them. When we be come thoroughly acquainted with them we can understand their language and know how to treat them. They seem almost to be come members of the family so that we are for them with that interest that is sure to bring suc cess. 'HOW TO SUCCEED.
