The seasonal conditions through- out the year were most unfavourable for corn. Excessive rainfall and low temperatures delayed planting in some cases and where planting was done at the normal time germination and growth were slow. The cool,, wet fall retarded ripening and much corn was harvested with a moisture con- tent too high. These poor conditions were not limited to Ontario but were similar throughout a large part of. the United States' corn belt. Thus the results from the tests were not those that would be expected under more normal conditions. As the ma- jority of the hybrids were tested in 1945 for the first time, the Corn Committee felt that the results of the tests did not give a true picture of the behaviour of the hybrids un- der more normal conditions. The opinion was that only those hybrids which had been tested for two or. more years and had shown real merit over that period should bo consid- ered. On this basis three new hybrids rr GO: any time Thursday, April 18511, until 2.00 p.m. Monday, April 22nd.
