In recent years, a considerable amount of work has been done in studying the relation between ear characters of corn and yield. The bulk of the data indicates that.there is little, if any, relation between most of the ear characters and yield. Since fertilizers often have a marked effect on yield of corn, it may be worth while to determine the effect of fertilizers on the ear characters as well as on the yield. In this paper, data are presented which show the effects of certain fertilizers on yield and on ear characters of corn.
