Excerpt from Corn Experiments, 1894
The season of 1894, while fairly favorable to the corn crop in central Illinois, was somewhat short in rainfall. The aggregate rain fall, inches, for the five months, May, June, July, August, and Sep tember was well distributed through these months.
The mean temperature for each of the five months was slightly above the average of the same months for the past six years. Different parts of the tract used for the varieties showed marked variation in its capacity to withstand the drought, hence less importance should be attached to the yields of different varieties this year than to their aver age yields for a series of years.
