Early seed selection and drying improve corn vigor

Iowa Agricultural Experiment Station plant pathologists report from 12 000 ears tested in 1927 28 that early selection from standing smut free ears with intact curved shanks and drying at 100 110 degrees with good ventilation yields stronger seed. Artificially dried seed shows higher vigor than naturally dried, with 44 percent strong vs 89.7 percent for undried seeds, and lower mold and rot rates. Early maturing varieties show less gap between early and late seed performance.

The author questions belief in the soul after life and ponders the meaning of existence if life on earth is all there is. The text contrasts philosophical speculation with a note about European practices where nuts and fruit trees along roadsides are used for material profit.
