Corns 
Rrerl especially for ensilage pur¬ 
poses, they make the height of stalk 
and abundance of blade that insure 
immense tonnage. For years these 
corns hare enjoyed a reputation for 
ensilage purposes, particularly in 
the North and West. They make 
larger and better crops than corn 
grown in other parts of the country. 
“Growth in Spite of Drought” 
A customer writes: “Last summer 
we planted a field of your Pannm- 
key Ensilage Corn, and had a most 
remarkable growth in spite of the 
drought. The stalks average 13 or 
14 feet, while a few were 1 5Vj feet 
high. We never before had any¬ 
thing to nearly approach it even 
when the season was favorable.” 
Write for prices on these corns that 
produce the most silage from the 
least laud and labor.

the fruit is the p ; trf used in mule no crop 
1 ;,n I"* sorured until the end of the second 
season. This makes the hop an expensive 
crop to grow. The plants are started bv 
cutnng off sections of the roots or suckers 
tnun the old plants. These are set 7 or 
s It. apart, after the soil has been 
manured thoroughly. Usually a crop of 
eorii or potatoes is grown between the 
hills the first season, and thorough culti- 
varjon is given. In the Fall a shovelful 
of manure is placed on each hill as an 
added fertilizer. The following Soring 
the poles are set. one at each hill The 
poles arc of cedar, about 12 ft. high, and 
I't-e secured from the nearby swamps. 
< ultnation is given, and as the vines 
grow - they are lied to the polos. The 
fruit or catkins form in late Summer, 
and these are harvested by the hop pick¬ 
ers. A canvas-covered shelter is prepared 
and four persons work together here flick¬ 
ing die fruits aad placing them in large 
boxes. A fifth person [mils the poles and 
brings them to the shelter, A good picker 
fills from three to live boxes a day. and 
[he prevailing wage is about a dul'ar a 
box. The poles are stacked after pulling. 
the boxes are removed to a kiln esno- 
cmlly prepared for drying the hops. The 
second story has n flooring of slats, which 
leaves space for the fumes to pass 
through. The hops are spread about f> 
in. deep in burlap on the slats, and sul¬ 
phur burned on top of a stove be¬ 
long The fumes dry out the hops so thev 
are m rendition to hale. They are packed 
m bales weighing from 180' to 20ft H,< 
and sold on the market. At present the 
sales ;ire few and of small quantities. Ihe 
present price being around .30 cents a 
pound. A return of l.Ooo to 1,300 lbs. 
ter a ere is considered a good average. 
A hop yard will lasr ns long as 20 years 
w - hen well cared for. though very few are 
kept tor this length of time. t. h. t.
