tions Just filed. The report indicates
that fifty.four building and loan as
soclatiOns of the state did not do as
much business in 1906 as they did
in the preceding year, but diff
ferences were not large. No new
associations were launched during
the year. There was a gain of
$50 Z of paid up shares and the gain
OF undivided profits of the fifty.
four societies is ST., $40. 80. The
new law providing for the supervi-
sion and control OF investment COM
panies. known as chapter PIG of the
laws of 1905, seems to have effectual-
" driven get rick quick" concerns

reached this department during the
period covered by this report
The Scientific American gives
the recipe, which the whole world
ought to know: At the first lndlca-
tions Of diphtheria in the throat of
a child, make the room close, take
a tia cup and put into it quantity
of tar and turpentine, equal parts.
Then hold the cup over fire, so as
to fill the room with fumes. The
little patient, on inhaling the fumes,
will cough up and spit out all the
mem braneous matter and the diph-
liberia will pass out. The fumes of
the tar and turpentine loosens the
matter in the throat and thus af
fords the relief that has baffled the
skill of physicians.
Seed corn will be scarce this
spring. Corn is testing poorly. The
wet weather in the fall kept the
eobs from drying out and then the
freezing injured the vitality. Corn
that appears well is only testing
seventY-five TO eighty per cent
which if planted would make a
poor stand. If you plant the corn
thicker so as to allow for the poor
quality-that is if you plant one
fourth more seed some of the corn
will be too thick and some hills too
thin or perhaps have none which
would make good crop impossible.
So test your seed corn and know
what you are doing.
