An expert corn judge to be provided who will give instructions to all competitors on the first day of the Institute and examine them on the second day. "Know How" and "Reason Why" is the Team that Draws the Car of Success To be successful in these contests it is necessary to be very observing and learn more as to why and how plants grow; and why some plants, like some men, thrive and prosper better than others. The best and surest way to do this is to grow the plants and watch them carefully through their interesting progress of growth to fruitage. It is important not only to study about the thing, but to study the thing itself. The winners in these contests will be those who this year systematically study corn and plants. Expert corn judges are not made in a day or week. It is the boy who intelligently and patiently studies the growing corn plant and spends his spare moments studying the ears and kernels of corn of different varieties who will win these premiums and be awarded the honor of having his expenses paid to attend the Two Weeks´ Course in Agriculture at the University of Illinois, where the opportunity will be afforded of earning a certificate as an expert corn judge. Two Weeks´ Course in Agriculture At the time of the Corn Growers´ and Stockmen´s Convention, beginning January 13, 1913, and continuing two weeks, the College of Agriculture will give instruction in certain subjects of especially practical importance to young men on the farm, such as judging of corn, testing of seed, operating the Babcock test to determine the amount of butter fat in milk, practice in stock judging, knotting and splicing of ropes, adjustment of farm machinery, lectures on veterinary science, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
