InrMHi Tcl's I low to Jtalso It
Varieties of half a dozen dlffprcnt
types of corn and displays from more
than a dozen farms tributary to Coos
Hay were on view today at tho first
corn show heiu in tins sceiion. x.
clearly showed that good enstlago
corn can bo raised on Coos.Uny.
Prof. Larson, ngronimlst from tho
extension department of tho Oregon
Agricultural College, was hero ns
spenkor and judge, being assisted by
County Agriculturist,.!. L. Smjth who
hns organized tho three biiowb In
this county. Tho show was well at
tended, everyono present being di
rectly .interested .In the raising of
corn.
For tho morning session tho farm
ers appeared, vlowod tho' corn, talked
over tho various varieties, iiio
main session started this afternoon.
For Rest 10 Kara
Warren G. Dessoy was awarded
first placo for tlio best JO cars of
corn, having tno King riuiup variety.
J. K. Noah, pf Allegany, was sec
ond with tho Prido of tho West nnd
C. G. Stadden, on tho L. F. Price
ranch near Sumner third with tho
Oregon Yollow Dent variety.
Tho JIe.st E"HlIago
For tho best ciiBilago on ono aero
Charles Mahaffoy, north fork of Coos
Rlvor, was glvon first place. His var
iety wna Prido of tho North and
showed n yiold of 3; tons to tho acre.
J. E, Noah, of Allegany, wns sec
ond with the Prido of tho North,
which mndo 2C.CC tons to tho ncro.
James Laudrith, ot Coos River,
took third lilnco with tho Prido of
tho North, variety, nt tho rato of 34,
1G tons to tho ncro.
In judging tho1 cnsllago for an aero
Prof. Larson clearly told tlio farm
ers that ho judged on tho quality ns
well as tho quantity.
Points on AVlilch Judged
Ho took into consideration the
good yield of corn, tho follago nnd
tho quality or tho grulit. Soma sam
ples had tho most In quantity, but
lacked In quality nnd vico versa. "I
nlso figured out tho fcodlng vnlno of
tho corn at tho stage at, which It was
cut," ho said.
"Coos county sunrises nio with tho
corn it has raised," said Mr. Larson.
"Coos Ray can rnlso goad onnllngo.
What you need Is corn thnt matures
early. Corn doubles in feeding val
ue during Its last stages, from tho
milk to maturity.
"Tho old Idoa was that corn was
put in a fl.Uo to keep it groom Tho
result was spoiled nnd sour silage.
"Tho now Idea, nntl tho correct
ono, Is to let tho corn got well ma
tured, wo)l glazed nnd dontod with
tho lower leaves showing signs ot
ripening."
Feeding Vnluu In Knr
Too much com In tho stalk is a
poor method. Sixty throo percent
of tho feeding vnlno Is In tho car,
tho other 37 porcout In tho stalk.
Two varieties of corn havo done
well hero. Minnesota No, 13 wns or
iginated for uorthorn Minnesota nnd I
tho Dakotas, In olght years in Oro
gon It has mado good progress, os
iccially for sllago. Where Uio sea
son Is n lonir one nnd conl thn Altnno.
'sotu No. 23 Is best, bolng a white
Hint variety, maturing early.
Need Plenty Cultivation
In proper cultivation tho best nnd
biggest yield can bo secured. Plow
i"eop and clean out tho woods, tho
' icsulta surely pay tho farmer In
'extra yield. Corn needs plenty of
cr.ro nnd u rich soil, with lots of or
ganic matter for tlio roots uro heavy
feoders.
Tomorrow Prof. Larson nnd Mr.
Smith loavo for Coqulllo to conduct
n two dnys corn show.
