Improved seed corn boosts yields across farms
A series of farm trials reports that improved corn seed from the Illinois and Midwest research efforts increased yields per acre by substantial margins. In one case three hundred acres yielded about thirty bushels per acre more than standard seed, with an estimated total gain of about nine thousand bushels valued around four thousand dollars. Similar demonstrations occurred in Central Illinois and northern Louisiana, where thousands of acres saw markedly higher outputs. The May issue also highlights notable features on the Louisiana Purchase centennial, diplomatic perspectives, and a large natural history collection exhibition.
