Examine Grain Carefully, Removing Any Worms Found and Then Fold Back in Place and Tie With Elastic Band or String. The best way to secure home-grown sweet corn seed, according to United States department of agriculture spe cialists. Is to allow it to ripen on the plant, and, since a single ear will be seed enough for a small garden, it lap quite practicable to do this. Select the best and earliest ears by stripping down the husks to examine the grain and to remove any worms that may be found, and then carefully fold them back and hold them in place by an elastic band or a string. Allow these ears to ripen thoroughly on the stalk. In the North It Is often better to pull and hang the plant where there will be no danger from moisture, frost or even chilling until the seed 19 thor oughly dry. All the ripe ears remain ing at the end of the season In any croD of sweet corn should be harvested Well-Formed, Properly Dried Swwt Corn for Seed Crosby's Early. and saved. The best ears will make fairly good seed, and nearly everyone knows the enjoyment in parched sweet corn. Sweet corn spoils much more quick ly than field corn, and cannot readily be cured in large shocks, but should be husked from the stalk and spread thin ly on staging to cure. A convenient way of storing sweet corn is on Lhe ear. GUARD TWINE FROM INSECTS Solution of Kerooene and Crude Creo sote Is Recommended by an Illinois Entomologist.
