an certain from several years ex.
Perience that one of the essentials in
securing a good crop of corn is good
seed. / may say the other essentials
are a good soil well prepared in a good
filth and thorough cultivation. But
with poor seed the best growth and
yield Will not be secured even though
the soil be rich and good preparations
and cultivation be given.
1t is not only necessary that the soil
be OF . quality that will terminate
readily under reasonably fair condi.
lions, but the seed must contain sum-
cient vitality tosend up a strong, vigor.
ousplant. Unless this is done it will be
impossible to secure a good, even stand
One essential necessary is a vigorous
grcwth. The corn plant must make
quick. vigorous growth from the start
and, while a rich soil prepared in .
good filth is a great help in this, the
quality of the seed is the starting
point.
Our seed is carefully selected in the
fall, carefully dried out and then stored
where it is certain to keep dry and at
the same time be safe from vermin. ]

the conditions II such as they should
be for planting corn, the soil sufficient
ly dry to work steadily into a good
filth and then is thoroughly prepared.
there is no doubt but that a good. ever
stand can be secured.
1 have found by experience that it is
of no advantage to plant o when
the ground is wet, rough or cloddy.
Better wait until favorable conditions
car be secured, and then if good seeo
is used not only will a good stand be Sc
cured, but the plants will make a good
start to grow. and then with good cul-
~tiration can be kept growing. The
cost when a good crop is secured is
very materially reduced over that OF
q poor yield, SO that it pays to take
reasonable care to secure the best
yield.-N. j. Shepherd, in Farmers

Wholesome food, composed of q va.
ried diet, and strict and thorough clean
illness, are requisites that no poultry
raiser can ignore at any season without
increasing cost and inviting various
ailments. They are health-promoters,
and the healthy fowls are the only nes
that result in profit. The winter re-
turns from a well-kept flock of healthy
hens, when all the proper conditions
are intelligently observed, will be very
encouraging and will prove there is
considerable profit in poultry keeping.
