Our aim should be to get as many ‘bushels of bright grain as possible, and in order to do this we must do the best work we can at all stages of the game. Carelessness in any part of the work is always costly. The early estimates of what our £orn. crop will yield in bushels is not very interesting reading to farmers who have raised corn for twenty-five years or moré, because they have learned that they cannot make a good guess at their own fields until after the corn is eared out, and even then there are several “‘ifs’ that may change the guess later.
