CORN PROJECT FOR 4-H CLUBS (
lr. By E. J. Kinney and E. E. Fish  
eg the Tl·lE OBJ ECTS OF THE CORN PROJECT are (l) to teach a good  
method of corn culture, (2) to furnish profitable employment for l
o port of the Club member's time during the summer, (3) to stimu— J
Oungel lote interest in farm life among farm boys. 3
ip Own When a 4-H Club member selects corn for his project he hopes   T
_ to produce a high yield. Yields of lOO bushels per acre ore not T
lllculm uncommon among state and county project members. Club mem~ T .
ned by bers strive for a large yield per acre because that means more (
_ corn for feeding and a smaller relative cost of production. Many ( ~
l€°l‘ items entering into the cost of production, including taxes, rent, (
$ll°Ul°l plowing and seedbed preparation are the same whether the yield
“"l'€5· is large or small.
Preparing for the Crop y
Selecting the plot (
The foundation for successful corn growing is soil productivity. `
com · Corn is given its place in the crop rotation immediately after clover ' y
id com or Glfalfa or other legume sod is turned under. Most profitable T
yields are obtained from moderately low—|ying but well—drained, i
nanure. _ Ioumy SON' y V
weeds. APPlYl¤g munure
The soil should be well supplied with organic matter. /\pp|ica— P A
tion of 8 to lO loads of barnyard manure per acre is an excellent
ime. woy of supplying the needed organic matter. This may be opplied
before breaking the land or, if not too coarse and strawy, after
breoking. The latter method often gives slightly better results.
Flowing
l€lS' F Lflnd is plowed to loosen it, to destroy weeds, and to cover
Slmg O’Q¤¤lC matter. More roinfoll is token up by plowed than by un-
olowed land. Fall plowing has some advantages. The larvae of
Iiormful insects, such os cutworms and grubworms, are brought to
the surface ond destroyed by exposure. Fall plowing exposes thc
IS' $0ll to the mollowing oction of freezing and thawing Gnd l'rC1Sl€¤S
led com ll°‘$‘ decoy of the organic motter (clover, manure, etc.) which WGS
plowed under. However, where lond is hilly it is not advisable to
blew in the fall because this would subject the soil to serious losses
[ 3 l

 by washing and leaching. Land to be plowed in the spring should An
be plowed as early as possible, to a depth of about 7 inches. mj
Preparing the seedbed H0
ln the spring, work plowed sod ground with a disk harrow. lf you S
l have no disk harrow, use a spring—tooth, or a spike-tooth harrow. nu
A fairly good seedbed can be prepared by several harrowings with del
a sharp spike-tooth harrow. Repeat the harrowing at intervals pre
until planting time. This keeps down weeds and saves moisture to
, which would be lost rapidly if a hard crust were allowed to form. Wh
Thorough preparation of the soil is very important. in
Using commercial fertilizer  
Phosphorous is the element most lacking in manure. lt can be le:
supplied in various forms to make a proper balance. lf manure GB
is used, the fertilizer application should be 300 pounds per acre _ On
of 20-percent superphosphate. Superphosphate and ground lime- be
stone should be spread broadcast on the plowed land before pre- Ty
paring the seedbed, so that harrowing will mix them with the soil th
thoroughly. Where manure is not available 500 pounds per acre CO
of a mixed fertilizer containing 5 to 8 percent nitrogen, 6 to8
percent phosphoric acid, and about 6 percent of potash should be W
applied broadcast and worked into the soil.
Choice of variety lll
Hybrid seed corn is so superior to the old open-pollinated dl
varieties in yield and strength of stalk and roots that it has practi- lh
cally displaced the open-pollinated varieties in all important corn- Cl
growing areas of this country. Any of the Kentucky certified lil/· Gl
brids may be used. Kentucky l02 and lO3, and US l3, are the Ol
yellow hybrids certified in Kentucky; and Kentucky 72 B and K€¤· nl
tucky 203 the white hybrids. Consult your county agent in select-
ing the variety.
Measuring the plot Rl
` Before planting, be sure that the plot contains more than tlté
required acre, 43,560 square feet. Two disinterested persons l0
should measure the acre before the corn is planted, or soon after.
Space should be left outside the measured acre for turning The F6
horse or mule while cultivating. Drive strong posts (which will re- tc
main throughout the season) in the corners of the measured acre
[ 4 l
_ J

 ` 2 l
hould Any rectangular plot that is at least l0 rows wide and that con- V
tains the necessary amount of ground is satisfactory. ;
How to plant g
HYOU lf a corn planter is used, regulate it so as to drop the desired  
"'°W· number of grains each time. Whether to check or drill should be
iwllh decided by the local conditions. lf the ground is weedy the corn  
firvuls preferably should be planted in checks. On hillsides, it is necessary ` Y
"Sl'·"€ to drill. There seems to be little difference in the yield of corn i `
‘c°'m· whether drilled or checked, if the same number of plants are grown V
in both cases. On rich land that holds moisture well, drop 4 grains T A
3% feet apart in the row or 2 grains every l4 inches if drilled. _ y
Thin to 3 stalks per hill, or l stalk in each place in drilled corn. On
xm be less fertile land thin to 2 stalks per hill and space drilled corn
‘°m"€ about 2l inches apart. lf early-maturing, smaller-growing varieties
" Pm - are used, they should be planted at the thicker rate. Corn should
Mme be planted only deep enough to place the seed in moist earth.
E pr? There is no advantage in planting very deep, as it takes longer for
le SON the corn to come up; in fact there is a chance that it may never y
f" SC'; come up. T i
> o
uid be When to plant i A
_ Corn should not be planted until the ground is warm. The
time for planting varies somewhat in different localities and in _
armed different years, because of varying seasonal conditions. Most of T
practi- the corn in Kentucky is planted between April 25 and May lO.
r com C0mmunity experience as regards time of planting is a very valu— T
ed hy- uble guide and the best practice is to plant when the best farmers
ire the ofthe community are planting the main crop. Neither very early
d Ken- ¤0r very late planting should be practiced.

Cultivation
Reasons for cultivation
an the The reasons for cultivating corn may be summarized as fol-
nersons lows;
lclflel l· T0 destroy weeds, This is probably the most important
Fig the "EGSOVW. ln fact, it is a muah-debated question Wl'l€fl"l€|’ li l”\€lP$

 crust on. the surface that aids in the evaporation of water from
the soil. Breaking up the crust by cultivating lessens this loss,
somewhat. lm
3. To aerate the soil. By breaking up the crust, air is ol-
K V lowed to circulate more freely in the soil, thus favoring the growth de
of useful bacteria and making plant food available. lac
4. To let the water from rains sink into the soil quicker by
keeping the surface loose and porous. LC;
` Depth of cultivation gl
Sometimes the first cultivation is given by going over the field G,.
with a light spike-tooth harrow soon after planting. lf the harrow th
is light and the teeth are set to slant backward a little, this method th
can be used safely on plants 3 or 4 inches high. The advantoge Or
of harrowing is that it kills the young weeds. The first plowing
may be deep and close to the plants; however, at no time should th
the cultivation be close enough to disturb the roots. Later culti- it
vation should be shallow and preferably done with a cultivator bc
which has several teeth or shovels. Don't use the old-fashioned m
double shovel or bull—tongue plow unless absolutely necessary, be- ~ St
cause they tend to injure the crop by cutting off many of the {C
feeding roots and also by permitting greater evaporation of mois-
ture from the soil by leaving the ground with ridges and deep fur- ` D
rows. Cultivate whenever necessary to kill weeds and also as soon
as possible after a rain, to break up the crust and make the sur- C
face of the soil fine and loose. Frequent, shallow cultivation in ll
the early stages of growth gives the best results.
Number of times to cultivate
How many times to cultivate corn depends upon the kind cl n
soil and the weather which each season brings. Not fewer than e
three or as many as five cultivations may be needed to keep the C
plot free from weeds. The growth of weeds on a plot shows a lock
` of cultivation. T
ll
Cover crop p
lt is very important that com land be sown to a cover crop l
to prevent leaching and soil erosion. This should be done G5 €‘·"lY T
in September as possible. t

from Insects and Diseases T
’ loss, Insects  
is O, Both field and sweet corn are subject to injury by several  
growth destructive insects. Some work on the roots and others eat the  
leaves or ears. T
wr by The wireworm, white grub, and com root worm attack the 4 T
roots. These pests are the larvae of beetles, and the methods Q
used to combat them must be in the nature of cultivation. Grow- i T
ing corn on the same field year after year may help these insects `
to increase. Rotation of crops tends to hold them in check. Fall j T
6 field and winter plowing destroys a great number of these insects as
f¤¤*'V0W they are brought to the surface and subjected to freezing. Also A
¤€ill0d this kills many larvae which spend the winter in the soil and feed
¤¤i¤Q€ on the corn above ground during the growing season.
’lOWl"9 One of the worst corn pests is the corn ear—worm. lt is found in
Shevld the tip of the ear of corn. Fall plowing helps to control this insect,
" CUlll‘ lt is believed. The very serious insect known as the European corn
ltiv¤i<>f l:>0rer has now spread over most of Kentucky but has not become
ihlolied numerous enough to do great damage. Plowing under all corn- T

the Sui. Cutoff the affected stalks, carry them out of the field and burn

Selecting Exhibits
An exhibit is an important part of the corn project. Each club
kind Ol member is required to show a lO—ear sample of his crop. This
er than exhibit may be displayed at a county fair, a school fair, or a local
eep the club fair.
so lack The county agent will have someone to judge the exhibits.
This judge will have several things in mind when he looks over
the exhibits, and club members should know what the most im—
portant of these things are, so they can select their samples of
,€,» crop l0 €¤fS intelligently First, q judge will be influenced greatly by
GS early the Uniformity Of the exhibit; This means that each ear should
be lust as much like every other ear as possible. Second, he will
[7 l

 insist that the ears be up to a certain standard in size and that Ch
they be well proportioned. He will insist that all ears be abso-
lutely sound; any signs of unsoundness will bring down the scare EOS
greatly. Finally, the judge will be influenced by the finish ofthe Sh;
ears; that is, the way the tips are covered and the finish of the the
‘ butt ends.
Frc
Shape of ears
All ears should taper slightly. Take care to choose ears that for
do not taper too much nor too sharply.
Size of ears Ml
Never select abnormally large ears for an exhibit. Medium on
ears are best.
Purity
All grains in an exhibit should be of the same color. lf it is
an exhibit of white corn, all grains should be white. lf there are _
any red or yellow grains it shows that the corn is not pure. ln an lm
exhibit of yellow com there should be no white or red grains. IT
White corn preferably should have white cobs, but some varieties llc
of white corn have red cobs, so the important point is to have the l IS.
color uniform. Yellow corn should have red (or pink) cabs.  
Tips and butts V ` bo
The tips and butts should be well filled and carry as nearly lh}
as possible the same size and shape of kernel as the rest of the ml
ear. Unfilled tips, broken off so as to make the ear appear more CO
uniform, will cause the exhibit to be disqualified for competition. CO
Type of grain
An ideal kernel is slightly wedge-shaped, but not pointed. The
kernels should fit up against one another so that little space is
lost between rows. The rows should be straight and extend from
butt to tip. The grains should have a medium dent.
l Type of germ
The germ should be large, broad, and healthy. A large, broad
germ indicates vitality and strength.
Number of rows
The number of rows will vary with the variety of corn.
[ 8 ]
V 4-

 ·   ` i
l that Character of cob Y
abso— The cob should be medium in size. A small cob is broken ,
$€0i€ easily. When cobs break, much grain is lost in handling and  
¤l the shipping. If the cob is too large, the ears are slow in drying and i
Jl The the corn may spoil in the crib. g
Freedom from disease _ g
Corn that is diseased should not be selected for exhibit. Look l T
S lh°l for smut and mold. Never select com with mouse-eaten grains. j t
Maturity T
edium Ears should be dry and sound. Shrunken, wet or loose grains
i on the cob indicate immaturity. l l
Keeping Records
It `t ` .
WIC; Keep the record book up to date as the work is done. Every
' In an time something is done connected with the acre of corn, enter it
mins in the record book. The number of hours required for plowing,
arienés planting, cultivation, and so on, should be put down as the work
we the · is done. Then when the crop is harvested and the yield deter- ‘
mined, a short summary will show exactly the cost of producing *
‘ the crop. Don't try to remember items of expense. Let the record T
· book do the remembering. First, last, and all the time, keep up
