OUR FARMERS.
WHAT KIND OF CORN SHALL PLANT.

Last spring the Vermont experiment
station planted four varieties of corn
on three different parts of it's farm.
Sanford, Red Cob, Leaning and a
large Virginia corn were chosen.
/ They were separately harvested, en-
silaged and fed. The Sanford grew six
/ feet tall and matured; the Red Cob,
eight and one half feet and part glazed
/ it's ears; the Leaning and Virginia
corns, nine and one-half and eleven
/ feet respectively, the ears arriving at
the milk stage. The yields of green
| fodder per acre were Sanford nine,
Red Cob fourteen, Leaning sixteen
! and Virginia seventeen tons. The
yield of fodder matter to the acre
were Sanford two and seven eighths,
Red Cob three and one fourth, Lean
ing three and Virginia corn three and
one third tons.
The Sanford corn being most ma
ture, kept best in the silo and came
out with an exceedingly small loss.
The Red Cob corn lost comparatively
little, the other two immature corns
much, as such wet material always
must, in the silo or out of it. AS a
result, therefore, the actual food which
reached cows managers from an acre
of Sanford corn which only grew nine
tons of green fodder, was nearly as
great as from an acre of Virginia corn
which grew seventeen tons, and
greater than from an acre of Leaning
corn which grew sixteen tons. The
Red Cob matured better than hitherto
at the station farm and it's food yield
exceeded that of the Sanford slightly.
This result is exceptional.
The Sanford silage was the best and
heartiest of the four and the COWS did
better on it than either of the other
silages.
These trials confirm others hitherto
made at the Vermont and other sta
tions. They show that the extra
like the Sanford is practically all water.
He who grows such must handle in
the field, on the wagon and on the
silage cutter from four to eight tons
of extra water to the acre. He must
furnish silo room for it and then
Iaboriously lift it out of the silo
and carry it to the cattle. This extra
water has no food value whatever.
1t is better and cheaper all around to
water the cattle in some other way.
Moral: DON'T.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infiamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inf1amed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed
deafness is the result, and unless the infama-
ton can be taken out and this tube restored
to its normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an
infiamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

case of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that can

Origin of ImnrOVed Cars.

George M. Pullman tried to lie
down on hard seat in a primitive
passenger car. In his ftful sleep he
dreamed of a fortune in the manufac-
ture of comfortable sleeping cars.
Charles T. Schoen, a few years ago,
was casually climbing over some old
freight cars in a Pittsburg yard, and
saw that many of them were in need
of repair and inefficient at best. He
conceived the idea of building pressed
steel cars, and to- day the demand for
these cars is twenty thousand ahead
of the supply. They are wanted all
over the world.-iSuccess.

To Remove Cake from the Tin.

To take a cake from a pan with ease
when baked, lay clean towel on the
and put a cloth folded two or three
thicknesses, wet in cold water, over
the bottom of the pan. In a minute
or two the pan can be lifted from the
cake with ease. Now take hold of
the end of the towel the cake rests
upon and turn the cake over right
side up. It is apt to make a cake
heavy to let it cool upside down.-Er.

GENERAL HOUSEWORK DEMANDS
ABILITY.

| A young woman who can act as
| general housemaid(t that is the position
most demanding, most onerous and
most in need of occupantsD must be
bit of a mechanic, very much of a
cook, must understand the duties of a
! laundress, and must be able of course,
to sweep, dust and make beds proper
ly. She must be bit of a mechanic
because our labor saving machines
will not run themselves. The other
requirements are obvious. Often the
furniture in home where a maid of
all work is employed is SO pretty and
dainty that it requires especial care.
The linen and the silver are as beau
tiful as in the household where three
servants share the care of it; and I
have read menus for the maid of all
works dinners that were quite as
elaborate as those where the cook at
tends only to cooking, instead of
Fshpping on her neat white apron
after she has dished the dinner, care
fully putting the cooking utensils to
soak in the sink Or on the stove, full
of hot water, in which has been
sprinkled tablespoonful of this or
that POWDER" and slipping, immacu
late and cool, into the dining room to
wait on the table.
Now, it can be done, all this, and
done we'll; but I contend that to do it
demands a combination of quickness,
dizziness and clear planning which
only belongs to ability. [ contend
that good general housemaid is far
superior in mind to the average shop
girl, except in the higher grades. She
has to use forethought, organization,
instant decision and keen observation,
all high mental qualities. In fine, she
needs to be woman of ability. Good

POTATO GROWING.

/ The growing potatoes is one of the
| most important farm industries and
yet perhaps one of the most neglected.
/ 1t is important because nearly every
farmer grows more or less potatoes,
nearly every person consumes them
and they are profitable crop when
properly grown. Mr.. S.H.Todd says in
the Ohio Farmer that we are too care
less and thoughtless in regard to the
seed that we plant. Seed should be
strong and vigorous, free from disease
and so cared for through the winter
that there is no possible chance for
the tender germs being injured. I
found from an experiment made last
fall that potato will harden and
tougher itself so that it will not show
frosting when the temperature is
freezing, but the germ must be in
jured. Anything that is so responsive
to heat as the potato germ must be
correspondingly sensitive to cold. I
bought potatoes for seed two years
ago; they looked all right but they had
OOOh 81 lb9uA ca Wy COAO ChdU AAOCA VI
the seed did not grow, and what did
gave such stunted vine that did
not get a third of a crop. L might
better have paid So per bushel for
good seed than to have planted the
seed did. a thermometer should be
hung in the cellar and never let the
temperature get within two degrees
of freezing point. I would not think
of planting seed kept ali winter in
cold storage room, it would injure the
germ vastly more than it would to let
them sprout, and if need be break the
sprouts off before planting. 1t must
be borne in mind that the germ con-
tains the future crop and if injured in
any way a proportionate per cent. of
the crop is gone.

LIQUOR AGENCIES.

For one, we cannot see how state
ment showing the immense quantities
of liquor sold by Vermont town agen-
cies can serve any good purpose as an
argument in favor of the re peal of
prohibition. Without doubt, three
fourths, at least, of all the goods sold
at the agencies is for purposes other
than those contemplated by the law.
In plain words, three out of every
four Gus toners are liars. They want
the stuff to drink as a beverage, in
stead of for ''medicinal, mechanical
or chemical" purposes.
What of that? Ought their mendac-
ity to cause the abolition of the agen-
cy system, making it impossible for
honest men and women to secure
liquor when it is actually needed?
Would not these same persons buy as
much, even more, if they could secure
it by the glass and drink it on the
premises? Is not single agency in
city or town, even when run as 'wide-
open" as the worst, preferable to
mum Der of saloons?
If person gets drunk on agency
liquor, he is severely punished for
obtaining intoxicants under false pre-
lenses, and no agent frequently dis
closed on in this way, could hold his
job. 1t a person gets drunk at
saloon, the seller smiles and points to
his license.
The agent works on salary and it
is to his credit to keep sales down.
The licensed saloon keeper works
for profit, and it is to his interest to
sell as much as possible.
There are legitimate uses for liquor.
No law ought to interfere with them.
The Vermont agency provides for
them Because abuses creep in is not
sufficient reason, either for Furnishing
honest people, or gratifying dishonest
people. Whacking the agency does
not strengthen the saloon, for the
worse the agency the more it resem-
bles the saloon.
Many persons believe that the evils
resulting from drink are not sufficient
cause lot prOnIOiClbS us SdIe1 DIS d
beverage to all, and that 30 do SO is
an unwarranted invasion of personal
rights. Such people prefer license,
and are quite consistent in so doing.
But to complain because system
conceived to supply the necessary de-
mand only is abused by the beverage
drinkers, and to use that as an argu-
ment for installing the saloon, which
caters wholly to the latter class APP

TEACH THE CHILDREN TO BE USEFUL

Why is it that our schools are
almost swamped in an avalanche of
new demands-demands for manual
training, sewing, cooking, jackknife
work and a thousand other things?
It is simply because the idea of the
useful child has lost ground in so
many homes. The useful child learns
| deXterity as a matter of course, but it
| learns so much more! The child
! learns that no one lives for self alone;
that Joy and order and beauty are all
| bound up in faithful service; that life
is indeed "more than meat" 1t is
the patient training in small home
duties which develops a keen sense of
duty, a high standard of personal
reliability and even something of that
old fashioned quality, reverence. 1t
is the antidote to that nervous rest
lessness and responsibility in the
young which are the source of so
many of the evils OF which we COM
plain. Indeed the habit of practical
usefulness early formed by good,

ism and the tyranny of the senses and
the appetites, now so threatening to
society.
ooh, yes" you say, "but they
must devote their strength to their
school work" The two duties will
not conflict. Their school work will
gain immensely and just where it
needs strengthening, in the morale
the sense of high obligation and APP
probation of opportunity.
Even a very small child is much
happier to have its small occupations,
little tasks which recur at regular
times. These may naturally begin
with learning the care of it's own per-
son and the orderly arrangement of
toys, clothing and implements. A
child that demands incessant amuse-
ment and expects every want to be
met as soon as it is felt, by others, is
not laying a good foundation for flu
ture appiness.-Good Housekeeping.

Responsibility of Men and Women Today.

Responsibility of Men and Women Today.
In all parts of the world, through
out all ages known to history. the
habitual beverage use of alcoholic
liquors has been accompanied by just
such miseries as those from which we
suffer today. Our fathers erred in
this matter mainly through ignorance
But if we continue in the same dan
gerous path we shall do so in spite of
knowledge. We know that total alb
stinence is essential to health. The
evidence of life assurance associations
and of benefit societies, as we'll as the
experience of our soldiers and sailors
together with the sifted and tested
results of scientific research, puts this
beyond question. Such being the
case, the responsibility of the men
and women of today with respect to
the continuation of the drink evil is
greater than ever before

paid either SO a week or so much per
hour for his work. Mr.. Murphy how
ever spoke very strongly against this.
AS to paying the secretary he thought
that it was unwise that the club which
depended largely upon voluntary con-
tributions should be so extravagant as
to pay a secretary for the little work
which that position required. People,
especially the business men, were gen.
erous and would gladly help the club
along when money was needed, but Mr..
Murphy was quite sure that there would
be no more 500 and $500 contributions.
People have got enough of that. He
did not understand why paid pianist
was wanted. There was so much must
cal talent right among the members of
the club. Such talent ought not to be
despised or overlooked, on the contrary
it ought to be developed and brought
forth.
This practically ended all discussion
on this subject and it was decided that
hereafter the club would have no
salaried officers of any kind whatever
A motion was made by Mr.. Sabate
that steps be Immediately taken in or
der to recover the ice-chest. oil-stove
and other furnishings which had been
removed by Mr.. Bradley. This motion
was duly seconded and was carried.
The next step was to discuss the cleo
ton of new officers for the club. After
some discussion it was decided to ap-
point q committee of three to nominate
candidates. This was done especially
at the advice of Francis Murphy, who
cautioned the members of the club to go
very slow upon that matter, as they
all knew how important it was to get
the proper men to fill these offices. It
was suggested that the committee wait
with its report until 1t could consult
with Mr.. Murphy upon his return from
his trip to Hilo, but Mr. Murphy
promptly opposed this, asking some of
the members of the Ministers Union to
act for him in this matter. The COM
mittee chosen consisted of Mr. Meth,
Mr. Bools and Mr.. Frank May They
Immediately set to work and later on
consulted with the ministers. The gen
tlemen whose names have been chosen
to fill the offices will be consulted as
soon as possible.
After this has been done the meet
Ing adjourned, every one seeming high
ly satisfied with the results.
Mr.. Murphy will start for Hilo today
at noon accompanied by Rev. Mr.. Hart
ley of the Anti-Saloon League. The
trip is made at the instance of the Min
isterial Union. which has guaranteed
all Mr.. Murphy's expenses. Francis
Murphy will first go to Hilo, where he
VIII remain for week or ten days
He will carry on his work as he has
been doing here in Honolulu. From
Hilo he will go to Lahaina and Wal
luku, and he may also stop at Paia.
Mr.. Murphy will probably be back in
Honolulu in about two weeks time.
