LARGEST and FINEST1" Mr. Average Farmer, Is your time worth $4 an hour? That sounds like get-rieh-quiek scheme, doesn’t It? Well it isn’t. J. C. Hackleman of the Mis souri college of agriculture figures that you can make that much testing seed corn. The average Missouri farmer raises about twenty-six acres o f corn each year. He falls to test his seed corn whereby he loses $1.50 (this is conservative estimate) an acre. Mr. Hackleman says that about te hours of actual labor would be required to test the seed for the 26 acres. By such testing the yield can be Increased at least $1.50 worth. Hence the time required to test the seed is worth about $40, or about $4 an hour. The more corn a farmer grows the more money he can make by the test. The man who raises 100 acres can Increase 1 H O T E L is tie N O R T H W E S T ^ | ] Eric V . Hau*er, President.

This Is practically clear gain since testing Is done during late winter or early spring when the time would otherwise be lost. Seed corn testing is comparatively easy. The ears that have been pre viously selected for seed are labeled to correspond to the spaces occupied by the grnlns from those ears in the gerraiuator. I f any of the samples of grain show poor germination, the ear from which they come can be found from tlie luhel on the space the grains occupy, and can be eliminated. One o f the simplest testers is the sand box or sawdust. It consists o f a box about 4 inches deep and 30 inches square, with about two Inches of sand or sawdust in the bottom to hold the moisture or to keep water from stand ing nround the corn. A piece o f old sheeting or other cloth that will ab sorb moisture, hut will not allow It to stand on the surface, should he stretched over the surface and marked oft into 2-ineh squares. I ’ut six ker nels from various portions o f the mid dle of each ear to be tested into one o f these squares and give the ears and squares corresponding Inbels. Cover the box to prevent drying and keep it at room temperature— about 70 degrees Fahrenheit— for six days, then find the ears from which kernels failed to ger minate, throw them into tlie feed box and retain those that showed u good strong test. Figures, based on’ the acreage and yields in Missouri during the last eight years, Indicate that the losses incident to neglect of seed corn testing will amount to about $11,000.000 this year. That amount Is worth saving.
