Book Description
Excerpt from Practical Corn Culture Written Especially for the Corn Belt Farmers During the past ten years great progress has been made in the cultivation and care of corn, both for seed and market. During this time few books have been written which have kept up with this progress. What has been written has pertained largely to the attacks of insect and fungous pests and to the selection and care of corn for seed. Very little that would be of practical benefit to the busy, farmer has been written on the culture of corn. We have long felt the need of such a book and have at length been induced by our friends to attempt the work ourselves. The result is seen in the volume now placed before the public. Our aim has been to make this book up-to-date in every particular and to cover the entire practice of corn growing, from the cutting of the stalks in the spring to the selection and testing of the seed for next year's crop. We have purposely started with the preparation of the seed bed because we know that some readers will start this book and will not finish it. If only a little is read, we are especially anxious that the reader get that part pertaining to the growing of the crop. The writers are both actively engaged in farming seven hundred acres of land, and W. T. Ainsworth has been growing corn on his Cloverdale farm for over thirty-five years. No apology is offered for the manner in which the subject is treated. The public must be the sole judge as to whether the book is deserving of commendation.

Book Description
Excerpt from Corn Cultivation As an average for nine years the Indiana Agricultural Experiment Station obtained best results from rows 3 feet 8 inches apart, with 1 stalk every 11 inches in the row. The Illinois Agricultural Experiment Station b after five years' tests directs as follows: On ordinary corn-belt land of northern Illinois plant corn hills 36 inches apart with 3 kernels per hill. In central Illinois on land of a productive capacity greater than 50 bushels per acre plant hills inches apart with 3 kernels per hill and on land of a lower productive capacity plant hills 36 inches apart with 2 kernels to the hill. On many farms of slight fertility in the leading corn States of the Mississippi Valley the annual yield is considerably reduced because the corn is planted as thickly as would be advisable on fertile prairie or bottom soils. Here the thinner planting practiced in regions generally less fertile could be adopted with advantage. Corn Should not be planted on soil so poor as to necessitate the placing of the rows 5 or 6 feet apart. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Department of Agriculture says that little importance can be attached to varietal names since the seedsmen keep so busy interchanging them (or renaming) and the wind continually mixes varieties by cross pollination.
