Item The Successful Selection of Seed Maize(1938) Coltart, H.C.; Nioro, Kenya Colony.The successful selection of seed maize requires "an infinite capacity for taking pains" and it has been proved beyond doubt that the pains taken amply repay one. This was clearly demonstrated at the last Nairobi Show by that excellent exhibit staged by the Department of Agriculture when the difference in crop from properly selected seed and poorly selected seed gave Sh. 50 an acre in favour of good seed. These figures are from actual tests of seed grown on the same soil in tile Seed Maize Competition.
