corn. 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.
