He has successfully shown that corn crops can be increased, and that varieties can be improved, simply by iutelli gent annual selection. Further more, by constantly' selecting seed from slow-growing, early ripening ears, he has shown that it H possible to evolve a strain of corn that will uniformly ripen its ears early and not far frora the ground. And, as every practical farmer will readily understand, the latter point is a great advantage in windstorms. What Prof. Ilolden has done, any farmer may doon his own farm and with his own farm seed. And the principle holds the same with potatoes or peanuts or other things. An annual personal selection of the best seed from the healthiest, best yieldinp: plants, will surely im prove the strain and the crop.
