After uenrly tweuty years of work by the AgrlcultnrHl college of Wash ington nnd co-opcrntlng farmer two wirictlcs of corn ndnpted to the rigor ous climate of the PsclUc northwewt nre innktiig strong bids for a perma nent place in the funning of those states whose climate Is characterized by occasions! late spring frosts, cool nights, tTflfl In midsummer, and fairly early fall frosts, writes J. L Ashlock In the Country Ccntlcinnn. The prob lem of western and northern corn growers, whose exclusive Interest till lately tins been In wheat, bus been to find or develop n tjpe of coin that will stand the Inte spring frost nnd the cool midsummer nights and ripen up ahead of the full frosts. The two new varieties of corn are distinct typos, known In the work of the Agricultural college as Thayer Yel low I lent nnd Wlntlus White Oent. Oddly enough, authentic facts relative to their lutroduetloii Into the north west cannot be determined. Nearly twenty years ago C. II. Thayer, now dead, nnd bis neighbor. W. V.

As years passed by Thayer aud Wluduu grew tbelr corn with lucres a lug success. Iu the early nineties the agricultural college wus founded In the state of Washington, sud when at tempts were made a few years later to introduce corn Wlndus aud Thayer. who lived near the uew Institution, en thiislnstlcally donated seed for trial, each von lug that his was superior to the other. In succeeding years tunny vsrletles of corn were tiled out and elluilnntud by lute frosts or the cool nights of midsummer. Several kinds em-iiiicd Ule (NSlS nud coolness of summer, only to l nipped hi the fall eveu lie fore they could be siloed. The white and yellow dents, however, promptly gave evldeucu of their worth. Ki 111. it mi-i several years before the agricul tural college felt safe In recommend ing tbe nun to the farmers. In llsiT It seemed nil Uiilile to offer limited ipuiutltles of tbe seed for trial, iiy this time one was called Thayer Yel low 1 tent and the other Wlndus While lleut. Hut men who were successfully eu gnged In the production of wheat aud knew (oru only as seeu In tbe great corn s'l.tes of tbo middle west sud east looked askance. Only by the ut most loaxliig 'on Id the agricultural college Induce thirty fursuers to try small itches of It. The results were so go, i.: that lu the next year, 1U0H, It was possible to distribute U7S samples of seed among farmers who promised to give it u i. Mr trial. Iu lfJOU 700 siimplas of the corn were distributed. Karli year slue then has marked an additional step In overthrowing tbe wheat farmer's prejudice ugulnst corn, till tbe present year tiuds com quite well established lu northwestern wheat legjous Ju January, lilniiary uml March of the present year tbe agricul tural college distributed more than ',' pounds of Wlndus and Thayer I eiit, representing only a fractional lart of what Mill lie planted.
