Reed, government meteorologist, said -today "corn is breaking all botanical rules in iti fight to produce at least seed in spite of the drought. -New tasses." he explained, "are coming on in many fields to furnish an abundance of pol len capable of fertilizing any silks that are receptive in the cooler hours. "New ears are continuing to shoot on stalks that are not dead." - "Of course. lt;s too late in the year now for such desperata ef forts to produce, results, but they show the terrific fight many fields of corn have made to adapt themselves to the heat and the drought. "And," said the meteorologist, "the peculiar part of it is, Iowa's corn is going to produce at least a seed crop in nearly every town ship, while in part of the state it will make a fair crop, consid ering the fight it has had to make this year even to exist." Should Be AH Dead "Yet, Judging by all weather standards, this drought, the worst by any measurement the midwest has ever experienced, should have killed virtually all the corn by now. "I'm convinced that the drought of 193 4 enhanced drought resist-, ing qualities in many strains ol corn. "Reports now indicate thai fields planted with 1934-producec seed carefully bred corn such at hybrids are standing the drought better. "Nature works in marvelous ways," Reed reflected. "I some times think her right hand doesn't know what her left is doing.
