,r Wallace
Emulates Father
In Farm Progress
Dos Moines, la. HPi -Henry A.
Wallace's oldest son is following
In his fat tier's farming footsteps.
The former secretary of agri
culture and vice president was a
pioneer In the experimental de
velopment of hybrid corn.
His son, Henry B. Wallace, Is
doing the same thing with thick
ens. As a young man on a farm 50
miles west 'Of here, and as a stu
dent at Iowa State College of Ag
riculture, Henry A. Wallace spent
his spare time developing belter
strains of seed corn. He formed a
commercial company specializing
in hybrid corn, which has revolu
tions) the cornbelt in the last
10 years.
" Company Formed
Henry Browne Wallace, now 32,
was tinkering with chickens while
his father worked with coin.
The younger Wallace has form-
ed a company which markets the
hybrid etiickens developed by the
same process of careful breeding
selection that his father used to
produce belter corn.
The breeding pens of the Hv
Line chicken farms owned by
Henry 13. Wallace at nearby Dai
las Center has hatched more than
8,000,000 etiickens in 19-18.
Hybrid corn has increased yield
averages as much as 15 bushels
per acre. Wallace claims his hy
brid chickens have an average egg
production of from two to six
dozen eggs more per hen than
standard-bred chickens. !
The process of hybrid corn 1
breeding starts with in-breeding, j
whereby a strain of corn repro-1
duces ilself year after year so that
Its breeding factors will become j
exclusive. The in bred strains are J
then crossed with one another, ,
reulling in a hybrid corn which
has larger ears, higher yield, and
other desirable qualities. i
More Difficult j
The same process is followed ;
with chickens, except that the in
breeding process is more diffi-!
cult.
Wallace estimates that "many j
years, several hundred thousand !
dollars, and trained genetics per- i
sonnel" are necessary to develop ;
a hybrid bird that can be relied on !
to lay well.
He believes it takes three times
as long to develop "the same de
gree of in breeding purity" in
chickens as in corn.
"After five generations of in
breeding of corn, you can get
about US per cent purity of breed
ing factors," he said. "With chick
ens, five generations will produce
only a 0 per cent purity."
That is because chicken inbreed
ing is possible only through a
brother-sister relationship, where
as a corn plint can. through pol
lenation, reproduce itself.
Cheaper Furniiure No Bargain
When Workmanship Is Poor
Corvallls, Dec. 16 (Special) the wood to see If the wood sur
That hurried last minute selec- faces have been matched perfect-
tion of a piece of "bargain" Christ
mas furniture may turn out to be
cheap in price-yet anything but
a bargain.
Cher.ply made furniture is ex
pensive at any price, declares Mrs.
Myrtle Carter, O.S.C. extension
specialist In clothing and home
furnishings. Other ways of econ
omizing In home furnishings are
uetter man sacrificing quality lor
price in upholstered furniture. In
this typo of furniture, she says,
hidden features are as important
as exposed portions of the piece.
Furniture joints are the most
important guide to quality, Mrs.
Carter states. In buying quality
furniture-insist upon double dow
els or mortise and tenon joints:
A dowel, Mrs. Carter explains, is
a wooden peg that joins two
pieces of furniture frame togeth
er, mortise and tenon joints
mean that a tongue is cut in one
piece of wood to permit it to fit
into a corresponding groove In
the other piece to be joined.
Either double doweling or mor
tise is a sure sign of firm con
struction. In buying plywood furniture,
Mrs. Carter suggests examining
ly. Careless matching, she de
claims, is a fair sign of careless
workmanship in other parts of
the furniture.
Good quality furniture will al
ways come " equipped with well
made hardware. Hinges, handles
and brackets are the parts to be
examined.
In buying a chair, for example,
there is no better test to see if it
is comfortable than sitting in it.
The seat of the average good
straight chair will be the same
height from the floor as an adult
person's knee. Nineteen inches
is about right for seat depth. An
easy chair, however, can be 24
inches deep and still be comfort
able. Choosing a reliable dealer and
buying furniture which carries the
label of a well-known manufac
turer are also important consid
erations for the average furni
ture buyer, concludes Mrs. Carter.
