Thev are planning to nd the methods ot seed ing and culture best suited to the Pro duction of the rroD, and its usefulness in producing grain and forage, aa well as to improve its quality ana adapii bility by seed selection. The members first select an acre of clean summer fallowed land that is uni form throughout and divided into four auarter-aere plots. These are diced and worked into a good seed bsj, if necessary plowed and followed imme diately with a subsurface packer before harrowing. About Mav 1 plots of the land are sown with the Milo maize, three pounds of seed to the acre, and two weeks lat er the other two plots are similarly sown, using a grain drill for seeding, and stopping uo the holes in the seed box so the maize will be sown in rows one vard aoart. Care ia ttken not to sow the maize when the around is cold. Soon after seeding the plots are har rowed and again ten dava later, with a third harrowing soon after the plants are uo. Thereafter a knife cultivator or shovel cultivator so set that the shovel will not run more than three in ches deerjer. One each of the earlv and late sown plots should be cultivated every week, and the other two everv fortnight. Well matured plants in the field have a large, compact, erect head, uniform in height and time of maturing are se lected, since it is essential that a tvoe be secured that can be harvested bv machinery. By erect head are meant those borne on straight or only slightly bent shanks. It should be harvested when the plants have matured well and the seeds are getting drv. It mav be cut and chopped like corn, and tne beads later removed bv chopping them off in bunchea on a block with an axe. or thev mav be cut off the stocks with a hesder or knife, and spread out in a thin laver and dried. The experi menters will note the effect of earlv and late planting, freauencv of cultiva tion and adaotitbliitv to the soil and climate. Yields of both grain and fod der will be secured, and three weens before hsrvest a progress report will be mailed to the agronomy department of the college.
