INI PUBLISH~~~~~~~~ED WEEKLY WINNSBORO, S. C. WEDNESDAYFBUR ,196ESALHD184 New Experiments With Corn. Experiment with corn at the Nebraska Experiment Station hive just been compiled and pub lished as Bulletoin 91. Tests of a number of varieties of corn in different parts of the state have continued. Something over one hundred farmers are engaged in these tests. It was found that no one variety of corn is equally '-vell adapted to all parts of the tate, By dividing the state into six sections, it was- shown that -certain varieties yielded best in certain sections and other varie ties in other sections. The yields -obtained by each experiment are stated in the bulletn. - Corn was planted sufficiently thick so that it could be thinned 'out to from one to five stalks per hill, 44x44 inches apart. On good soil with liberal moisture supply, three stalks per hill have the larg est yield of grain, although the ears were smaller than where the planting was thinner. Experi nents indicate that toward the -western edge of the corn belt two stalks per hill are better than a larger number. The plats of corn having the thickest stand had the largest -proportion of barren stalkt. On the other hand, suckers are more abundant in the tbin stand -of corn. These suckers serve a use Jul purpose in producing ears -when the stand of corn is thinner ~ than the soil and moisture can -easily support. In regions of sufficient rainfall it would not seem advisable to remove the tillers in hope of improving the yield. Experiments with seed co:rn from different states lead to the conclusion that seed corn should be raised as near as possible to the locality in which it is to be planted. Seed corn placed in a dry seed room in the fall gave 20 per cent better stand in the field than, seed corn from the same field thafewas, .left in the crib over wintet. T. L.

This is St. Valentine' day, thi great day of the year with al lovers, who will be sending their sweet reminders of this glad time It is siso a great day for garden ers, for it has come' to be a well established belief that the time for starting a garden is Feb. 14. The real starting ought to havE been earlier than this, -that is, thE ground ought already to be pre pared and ready for the deposit ing of the seed in the grouid. it is true, ' however, that there has been little time so far for thE getting the ground ready foi planting and this makes it all thE more necessary that no time bE lost now in getting everything ii good shape. The ground is still pretty wet and it will be several days before there can be much ploughing and there ought not tc be any at all till the ground is good dry. But as soon as it is then gardening should begin in dead earnest. It is now time for the most of the early vegetables to be planted and most of them should go im the ground right away. At any rate do not neglect the gardan. It is one of the most important adjuncts of every well regulated home. It is a necessary part of the hog and hominy schedule, the raising of all supplies at home, that makes so much for pros perity and happiness. Deteirmine to have the best graden this year that you have ever had and do not neglect it for any other work that may seem more important. There is nothing else that will pay better for the same amount of time and attention. Luckkst rIie In Ark4nsas. eI'm the luckiest man in Ar kansas," writes H. L.
