CORN. 



Thii'ty-one varieties of corn were planted in two rows, 66 feet long each. 

 The time of planting, stages of growth, time of cutting and weights are given below. 

 The last of May and first of June were cold, aad much of the seed planted failed to 

 germinate, and the plots had to be replanted 21 days after the first planting, or on 

 18th June, thus interfering ver}' much with the results of the experiments.
