Seed Corn. Several of the Farm Bureaus in Vermont conducted corn variety tests the past year in a good deal the same way that they were run in this coun. ty.

(Watch for the Laundry Dcy.) E. TOW! BARTON, V 1919 their acre values are as follows . (1) Sheffield Flint, value per acre ?56.iy, (2) Luce's Favorite, value per acre, $56.07; (3) Minnesota 13, value per acre $54.63. These three varieties, well known in this county which were tried out in the same way gave averages as follows: (1) Sanford, $44.48 per acre; Early Yellow Dent, $37.56 per acre; (3) Learning, $34.6 It should not be hard to determine from these figures which variety it will pay to grow this year. The seed for the first three varieties named will cost more than that for the last three named varieties but when it takes less than half a bushel of seed for an acre and a return of $10 to $15 more per acre is received from using a good variety, it pays to look ahead. Information as to where seed can be obtained will be furnished any one by the Farm Bureau office. Optimistic Thought. No evangelical precept Jostles out oi that of a law self-preservation.
