There .were more entries and according to W. C. Kirk, Jeffersonville, Ohio, the judge, there hns been a vast improve­ ment in the quality o f corn produced in this section, More attention is being given to selection o f seed corn and farmers now have a better knowledge o f what a good ear o f corn should be. Judging from the, number o f entries that write o f high quality, yet did not win prises, one could see from examining the display that but few ears would not prove samples o f a good crop.
