How to Buy and to Test
Your Seed Corn.

chaser can see exactly what he
is getting, and the corn is likely
to be of much better quality,
as the dealers always select the
best ears for customers who de-
mand ear corn. A farmer who
has purchased his first lot of
seed corn is dissatisfied with its
appearance. He is apt to expect
show ears. He should remem-
Der, however, that there are but
few show ears in wagon load
of corn and that they are worth
very much more than he has
paid for what he got.
AS rule, it is not wise t.; i'm
port seed corn q distance, be-
cause it may not be adapted to
the conditions where it is TO be
used. If farmer can get good
seed corn near his home it will
give much satisfaction. In fact,
every degree north or south of a
certain point means eight or ten
days difference in the time of
ripening. Going east or west
makes much less difference.
Seed corn bought from a dis
tance will usually take two or
three years for 1t to accustom
itself to the new conditions be-
fore it will give the best results,
no matter how good the seed
may be. On this account only
a small quantity should be import
ed. When seed corn is bought
the price should be taken into
consideration. The quality and
purity should be the important
facts to be taken into account.
a seed that will yield five bush
els more per acre is easily worth
ten dollars per bushel. Much
Of the seed offered by the so-cal-
led dealers is nothing more than
ordinary crib corn. This state
OF affairs can be remedied only
by the purchaser insisting on
corn In the ear, and then satisfy
ing himself as to its quality and
terminating power.
Having made his purchase, no
farmer should neglect testing the
vitality of the seed before plant
ing. Many a field has to be
planted second time on account
of imperfect termination, and
very often a poor stand is patch
ed up by re-planting odd hills b,
hand. Even this is often labor
thrown away, except for the fod-
der, because re-planted hills sell
dom produce perfect ears, there
being insufficient pollen to pro.
perly fertilize them.
A very good and simple way
OF testing the vitality OF seed
corn is to count out certain
number of kernels-say 100
and place In warm, damp place,
where no rats can get to them
and allow to stay until all the
seeds have had time to germinate.
Then count those that germinat-
ed and this will give the per
cent vitality of the corn tested.
The farmer should have a cer-
tain type of stalk, ear and ker-
mel that he wants TO grow, and

The Right Way to Shoe a
Horse.
Many Costly Mistakes are
Made by Ignorant Black
smiths.
Progressive Farmer.


There are three or four most
irrational practices followed by
many country blacksmiths in the
shoeing of horses that cannot be
too strongly condemned. First,
the cntiing away of the frog,
which is done by majority Of
the country smiths, is a most
positive injury to the foot, and
can have no reasonable argument
in it's favor.
The frog is the natural cush
ion and expander of the hoof, and
was placed there by an all-wise
Creator. To cut it out means not
only to rob the foot of the cush-
ion that should soften the con-
cussion of every step, but to al
low the foot to contract at the
heel and become misshapen and
crippled.
Another mistaken idea is that
The sole of the foot should be
thinned till it will yield to the
pressure of the thumbs. The
sole proper should never be
touched by the knife. All loose
scale may be trimmed away, but
the knife should never cut either
the sole or the frog.
All trimming on the bottom Of
the foot should be done by the
rasp, which will trim the edge
and not the sole.
Cutting of frog or sole in any
way works an injury by causing
the tissues to shrink and become
hard and dry. A frog that has
been trimmed by the knife often
dries so as to become as detri-
mental 10 the foot as a stone or
other foreign body. There is never
any good excuse for touching the
knife 10 any healthy frog. The
writer never saw one that was too
large.
Hot-ftting OF shoes to horses
feet should not be allowed by the
horseowner. While it may be
possible, as claimed by some
horse.shoers, that a better fit is
obtained in this way, and that no
real harm is done, it is also pos
sible that a good fit may be OBJ
tanned by cold fitting, and the
latter process is certainly safer.
If the foot be perfectly leveled
with the rasp, and the shoe be
made perfectly level, there is no
trouble about making a fit.
A very common fault among
horseshoers is the habit of setting
the shoe little too far back on
the foot and then rasping off the,
toe TO meet the front of the shoe
The trimming of the hoof should
all be done from the bottom OF
the foot before the shoe is set
The outside of the hOof should
not be touched by the rasp, ex-
cept to smooth off any slivers
around the edge. The common
practice of rasping the entire
outer surface CT the hoof, after
setting the shoe, should never be
allowed, as it destroys the natu-
IA coating of varnish with which
every healthy hoof is covered

WASHINGTON, D. c., June Is
The Star says editorially:
Today's New York American, in
commenting on the announcement
that the independence League is to be
made national organization, says:
The American people have wearied
of being herded into parties. They
are tired of following politicians who
are in politics for hire and for TIT
profit of corrupt corporations. The
tendency toward Independent voting,
which has been manifested in recent
elections, is still growing. That is the
peoples only hope. 1t was the spirit
of independence that made this nation,
and it is the spirit of independence
that must preserve it.
The causes that made the League a
power in this city and state are gen
eral throughout the country. The-peo-
pie have come to feel profound dis
trust of both old parties. The dis
closures of the trust contributions to
the last Republican national cam
paign fund are only equaled by the
fact that the Democratic national ex-
ecutive committee is made up of men
for the most part notorious for cor
poration associations. Party govern
ment is responsible for present condi-
lions. 1t can hardly be expected to
remove it's own handiwork.
Is not this a notice that the League
will be in the field next year with a
candidate for President? And is there
man anywhere half so well quail
fled to lead the league as Mr.. Hearst
| He is at once its creator and it's pre-
server. 1t sprang from his brain, and
draws it's sustenance from his large
and rotund wallet He stood last year
as it's candidate for Governor of New
York, and why should he not stand
next year as it's candidate for Presi-
dent of the United States?
/ NJ Bryan WIS IN believe tn It Mr
Htarst is pointing in the direct;0n oil
Democratic ideals, but his views are
not supported by Mr.. Hearsts own de-
liverances. We have in this American
editorial the distinct charge that the
Democratic party is as unworthy as
the Republican party and that bott
parties should be defeated in the in.
terests of the country. What says Mr.
Bryan to that? What an excellent
text for an editorial in reply for the
next issue of the Commoner!

GHOST STORY
SENT BY CABLE
AMERICAN MINISTER TO PORTU-
GAL SEEING THINGS IN HIS
LISBON RESIDENCE.

LISBON, June 29.-Charles Page
Bryan, the American Minister, has a
ghost mystery on his hands.
Mr.. Bryan, who is very kind to his
dependents, could not understand why
he could not keep his servants. One
after another they left him, giving in
sufficient reasons for excuse.
The Minister made inquiries and
learned that the whole household was
scared out of it's wits by the nightly
visitation of a female dressed in white
and having a white mantilla on her
head 1t was also declared that the
apparition passed from room to room
signing dismally.
Mr.. Bryan determined to investigate.
He stood watch in one of the rooms
through which the ghostly lady was
said to be in the habit of passing. At
first no lady appeared, then faint foot
steps were heard, and the form APP
peared just as the servants had de-
scribed, all dressed in white.
Mr.. Bryan kept cool and followed
the apparition through various rooms
of the house until to his amazement
it disappeared.
The ghost is supposed to be that of
sister of former "chef re marson''
who died in the house many years ago
under tragic circumstances.
