I obtained 1 *v«h stsblc manure which I mixed with leaf mold fnm tie woods — about half and half. “While this ut.ztnre was moiat and hot. 1 placed the seed corn 'n it. mixing the whole mass together lightly. "Thus. I allowed It to str-nd until the seed had thrown out root* rang-, ing from two to six, or ever* sev en inches inches In length, while th* tops had made a growth of about one half to an inch. “In the meantime, as soon ea pos sible, the Irod waa prepared to re ceive this sprouted coft- by making drills about four feet apart,- - “Along these drills this corn wu* dropped liberally, no attention be ing p?ld as to whether It was right side up or otherwise. “I then covered It about dne-ha!f Inch in debth. “It was nothing unusual to find the corn up and growing the next morning; and this method, alone insured me a crop at least a week in advance of all other planter* who could reach the Fitchburg mar ket. “But this was not all. “A* I said before, the kernels were planted quite liberally along the drilla. "Some would show & very strong growth. The weaker ones were pulled out after a few days and the stronger onee left at a distant of about twelve to eighteen Inches apart. “Thu? by selecting the strong fro the weak, r-nd giving the best fit ted the best opportunity to grow, I gained a totar advance of from ten day* to two weeks over my com petitors. \ •The result was that I averaged 50 cents n dozen for my corn with eager market, where my competitor found their product, two weeks la ter. a drug on the market at i0 cents or less per dozen.” The Illustration of the errly roast ing ears is typical of Luther Bur bank's methods. He uses no means In guiding na ture which are not within easy reach of every one to use. His whole army of tools and e- quipment could be duplicated for a few dollars.
