when: tho grains are cut open. Older
and - younger' ears should be sortad
and coked separately, a-, tho younger
ears, surprisingly on.iiiiili, will, re
quire somewhat longer cooking than
the older ones.
When the corn is sufficiently cook-
. ed, dump the ears upon a table to
drain and cool, then cut tho grain
from the cob with a strong, sharp
knife, so held that the grains are
cut through Just at the base of the,
"neck' by which they -are attachol
to the cob. This makes a much more
presentable product than that ob
tained by cutting less deeply and
scraping, and the attached glumes

of the grains are easily separaed
when the corn becomes dry. Spread
. upon trays to a depth of 1-2 to 5-8
Inch if the cortrls-to be dried '1n the
sun, or 1 Inch If drying tna drier. The
temperature of the drier may be 130
to 140 degrees at the beginning anil
should be Increased 15 to 20 degrees
toward the end of the process. The
grain should be thoroughly stlrrod
sevorul times to separate any com.
pact masses.
If corn is dried in the sun, it
should be finished by pouring Into
breadpans, placing in the oven of the
stove, and warming to 1P0 to 165 de
grees for two hours, with frequent
stirring, as it is practically Impos
sible to bring corn to a Bufficlent de.
gree of dryness by the unaided heat
of the sun. Drying should In every
case be continued until the, grains
are hard, semi-transparent, and
break to bits with a clean, glass like
fracture whencrushed.
