It is Worthy of Every >One's Careful Perusal* ' ? - . v SJ - . . , (ByC. B. Williams. Director.) | Information concerning proper methods of aeleUijLg seed of different farm crops is of vital Importance to p IjBBWfc for tlija wao thought and . effort put lr.to few other operations of the farm bring such good finan cial returns. A few hours spent in Intelligent field selection of seed of com feach year may be expected to lead to an annual increase of two to five bushels more per acrc^from these soed thah from those selected by the ordinary methods. -?* In consideration of the promise In this neglected field of work in North Carolina, and that oyer Yortv-seven per cent of all land cultivated in the State Is devoted to corn, with the use of something like 460,000 bushels of . seed corn and a small average annual f yield of 13.4 bushels of shelled corn j^4>er acre, the Experiment jStjtfion six years- ago began experiments to de termine the relative value 'of differ . ent varieties of corn as producers of * / sbellnd corn per acre. During the f time covered by these trials many j cases-tn which one or more varieties have produced$Fratn five to two- bush els more per ncre*thanoflief varieties' v have been observed. Conjunctly with these experiments, aoed"?B$lectlon In formation, the application of which - by farmers would lead to roaterlally increased yields of this cereal. It should be borne In mind, in the beginning, that the underlying prln ciplca of plant n nd an|pn] improve-" ment arc almost identical, and that similar ir.ej?ods toShoso which have been adopted In fhe improvement of fhe Various* brtM'JB uf li\?? block must-| * be followed by those who wish to| grow plaints of increasing _ productive ness. *H must also be remmberwl that as intelligent feeding and good ? care stand toTmlnlnf bi'e-.1 Ojnr:1 : u ik) nnnirn fi'mlitli i-inn in-' cultivation of the soflVstund to plant _ | breeding ^>r Improvement; for I r | proper tooS~ ami fare flirft iiot lirf-j nished both plants and animals, im proved "breeding will not only bo im pmmw, uiu rpiruKitfgiimi iiimiiaiii? . With the niofl thought and care, re sults are seen ml much quicker with slants than with anlmgis, as?a co.n pleted growth Is obtained in one year with most plants, while \Cith animals Jt requires several yArs to secure confplete knowledge o& what one* has obtained by a ceMain cross. Testing Varieties. ... ? TJie LestLnj; of varieties of all agri- , cultural crop> is of the most funda mental importance, as Is evidenced b>the differenced in yield of different varieties grown side by side in the name Held, on^tie same type of %oiI, with identical cmtivation aud fertili |- ration;. these differences being due largely to thei nherent qualities 'of the seed of the indfvldual -varieties which have been transmitted from parent to progeny. During the pant HtTT^ars on the 'Station fartn something over serenty flve varieties of corn have been stud ted in eomparativ&_itald teats. * The "yj mimber o^ varieties In the different tests have ran god alt the way from nineteen in 1903 to sixty-eight in 1908. The different tests of varie ties were conducted as nearly under th? same conditions -of soil, fertifiza '. u. tion and cultivation- as it waa p&ssi ble to provide. To eliminate Inequal ities in the character ot the land. If any, the varieties wore planted each _ ' in separate -rows, arranged consecu tively, and this' plan was repeated frbm three to five times,' varying ?< >th tile length of the rows, in ordoi to give the desired acreage to each va riety. By taking theee prnca - ns the results obtained should be rclt . able and highly valuable. 7"1 What is a Variety? A4v%rlety-4s supposed to represent - a class vt plant* with one or aoaj distinguishing characteristic.-, but so freely that variety does not mean much unless proper precautions have . 'been exercised in its growth. & ' 1 ? ?WC*" "tH W tva jiuniu. continuously m or adjacent to a field of iulgptor corh, and in a very short j time, especially if proper seed selec-j -tton Is not - practiced.- it -will .glxg much smaller yields when grown un der the~case conditions than the orlg inal pure-bred corn; this being due to the fact that yom no longer have pure Cocke's Prolific, but a mJxture of scrub and Cocko's Proline corn. 'This fact emphasize.* the Impbrtance of se curing seed from reliable parties. Itarly Maturing Varieties. ? ? '.Leaning Yellow, Iowa Silvermine, Rilev'B Favorite, HeUl'8 Yellow Dent.

In the Station tests, Biggs' Seven-ear, a North CarolliW-origlnated variety, has an average of three years' re sult*, produced 2.4 bushels more of shelled corn per acre than has Reid's Yellow Dent, originated In Illinois, and 4.2 bushels moro than Mosby's Prolific, bred In .southern Mississippi. Southern corn generally produces a larger and taller stalk, and bears the ears at a greater height, than do those varieties brought from higher elevations and latitudes.

Methods of Improvement. At present there are three meth- [j -ml? in I'lllll US on ]>rar-tl7iTTfi- ttn? I m-.J provement of corn by' seed selection, i viz.: (I) Importation or buying of improved seed; (2) field selection of tho host home-grown seed, and (3X home field- selection and growing of .corn for feed purposes in fin isolated, field. *? ? cirrunfcstances should farmers depend each year-upon Importation for seifdjJ as com- brqught from a distance (where* soil and climatic condition* are tff&erent) seldom yields satisfac tory results until It has become thor oughly acclimatized, which usually] requires from twrr to three yeara. I The force ot this statement is amply | [illustrated In our experience with the j best varieties of Western and North-; western corn. Nope of these have] done extra well under North Caro-1 linn conditions the first year aftrr im portation, although they -are among the most prolific ones grown in the principal corn-growing -bolt of the country. This further emphasizes the need In all variety; tests of as complete knowledge as , possible of the conditions under which tho par ent -phmts-wrrre- grown. Kh-peKSTTy shqpild the locations be known from whonco all seed come, before one can < properly interpret varietal result^, for, If not acclimatized, suppressed yield may .b<T expected from this cause. Buying 8eed.? In buying aeed It is usually safest to secure seed In sjnall I quantities first, and from aB near hgaij nthnr thlnm hnlnt | equal, and give them a trial before making extensive planting of the va riety This can*>? done, as some or the best yleldera for North Carolina have been originated In this and ad joining States.
