There are so many. Approximately 200 hybrids are being sold in Huron county . These are sold by over 20 companies with an unknown number of dealers. Often a dealer asks you to "just buy one or two units of his corn". If you chose just one unit from each company you would have , enough seed to plant over 60 acres. There must be a way to evaluate all these hybrids. The Huron 'Soil and Crop Improvement directors think SO.

PETER, PETER, PUMPKIN EATER HAD A WIFE AND COULDN'T KEEP HER?—No, it's not that Joe Seili of Brussels can't house his wife, it's just that he needed her assistance in building a steel barrel. (Photo by Langlois) Corn heat unit statistics available They are trying to make a summary of farm corn trials conducted in Huron County. if you have a corn trial on your farm, they would appreciate receiving the results. They would like to know now where your trial is located. This allow them to see the plots before they are harvested. After you harvest the plots, they will collect the yield information from your trial. If you are not satisfied with the results and do not wish to submit them, that's okay. Once the results are sub- mitted, the directors will summarize the results. A summary will be sent to each ,co-operator who submitted results from his farm. The summary will include how each hybrid yielded in the Ontario Corn Performance Trials. The average yield from each farm will be based at 100 bu/acre. This will remove yield fluctuations caused by differences in fertility, moisture etc. We think this type of summary will be beneficial to farmers. For it to be successful, we need a large number of farm trials. We would appreciate having your trial yields. If you will let the Soil and Crop Improvement use your results, contact one of the directors or the Ag office.
