Text Appearing Before Image:
ent. In scoring the proportion make a cutof one-half point for every per cent, below the standard. The proportion of grain depends on the size of the cob, the length andshape of grain, maturity and dryness of ears. MARYLAND CORN GROWING. Six hundred and twenty-eight thousand, seven hundred andninety-five acres of Maryland land were in corn in the year 1905.The total production was 23,202,536 bushels, representing a valueof $11,137,217. The average yield per acre was 36.9 bushels.There is no question but that better methods of seed selection wouldincrease this at least ten bushels per acre. That would add to thecrop 6,287,950 bushels, worth, at the same price as above, somethingover three million dollars. Is not three million dollars a sufficient incentive to the farmerboys of the State to make them take the short course at theirAgricultural College, and to the fathers of the boys to undergo theslight sacrifices necessary to send their sons where they may getsuch useful information? 20
Text Appearing After Image:
Owing to the time being short, it is thought best to take up afew subjects in this course and get the most possible out of them, 21 rather than take up many subjects and get little out of a greaternumber. For this reason three subjects have been selected: CORN JUDGING, LIVE STOCK JUDGING, GROWING OF LEGUMIN-OUS CROPS. These three cover the greater portion of the agricultural field. The following schedule will be observed during the two weekscourse in agriculture. In addition to this schedule, lectures will begiven several nights during the two weeks on such subjects as thestudents may desire. Should the students wish it, some lectures andpractical instruction will be given in horticulture on Saturday. SCHEDULE FOR FIRST WEEK. Morning. Afternoon. TUESDAY. Selecting of SeedCorn. Practical workand lecture. Selection of DairyCattle. Practical workand lecture. WEDNESDAY. Selection of SeedCorn. Practical workand lectures. Germ-inating test for seedcorn.
