EXERCISE 8 (Continued) 



Outline for Describing Corn 



Local Varieties. Every school teaching agriculture should have a collec- 

 tion of the varieties of corn grown in the locality. The students can add to 

 this collection, also the exhibitors at the local fair. Let the class describe 

 these varieties according to the above outline and also bear in mind the time 

 it takes each variety to mature. If there is time, number each variety, let 

 the students identify and place the name of each opposite its number on a 

 sheet of paper.
