Is Your Family Reading worth
While?"

So much Of current reading is merely
entertaining at best that the question
naturally arises, Is it worth while?
Your sons and daughters arc bound to
read something. They hunger for stories
which take them into the other half OF
the world of adventure, OF valor, Of
fortune-making. The problem is to give
them such reading without putting into
their hands the literature that is either
silly or demoralzing. The editors of
The Youths Companion believe that a
periodical can be made entertaining and
yet "worth WHILE" and The Companion
is conducted on that theory. And that
is one reason why more than half mil
lion American families read it. The pa
per is safe, but not dull. It's tales OF ad-
venture illustrate the advantages OF
fortitude and self reliance. Its stories
OF character lay stress on the truth that
right conduct is never mistake.

THE SELECTION AND
CARE OF SEED CORN.
Expert M. F. Miller Gives Timely
Advice to Missouri Farmers.

There is no more important factor
concerned in the production of large
yields of corn than the proper selection
and care of the seed. The matter OF
selecting seed ears OF desirable quality
is just as important to the farmer who
is growing his own seed as is the selec.
tion OF animals for breeding purposes.
The varieties OF corn which we now
have, have been developed by careful
selection; but too often there is little or
no attention given to this matter by our
farmers.
If man can spare the time, the best
method OF selecting seed corn, is to al.
low it to become thoroughly ripened on
the stalk and then select it from the
field before the corn is picked. There
is considerable advantage to be gained
in being able to examine the stalk from
which an ear of corn comes. In this
way man can select ears only from
i those stalks which have the normal
amount OF room aud which have the
ears at the proper height. Frequently
good ears as we pick them from the
cribs are simply due to the fact that the
stalk on which they grew was the only
one in the hill aud therefore had a
much better chance than the average.
What we want is good ear produced
on stalks which have only an average
chance and which are good because Of
some hereditary cause. Such ears will
be more productive than those selected
from isolated stalks.
The next best way to select seed corn
is to select the good cars as the corn is
being picked and throw these in a box
on the wagon separate from the main
load. This is the common method of
those who give reasonable care in seed
corn selection. But in whatever way
these selections are made, consider.
ably larger amount Of corn shouldIbe
thus selected than is necessary for seeds
90 It will then be possible to rsselect be-
fore storing them for the winter.
This selected corn should bs spread 10
y thin layer on sofds convenient floor

Short Winter Course In Agricul-
ture.

The Missouri agricultural college has
greatly enlarged and improved the work
of the short winter course in agriculture
which begins this year November first.
Largely increased equipment in every
department and the appointment of
seven new instructors exclusively for
work in the short winter course have
mode it possible for the college to give
the best instruction in the short winter
courses in the history of the institution.
All the fat ca title that have won prizes
at st. Joseph, Sedalia, and Kansas City
will be returned to the college and used
for the instruction in live stock judging.
The valuable dairy cattle that attracted
so much attention at the Missouri state
fair will also be freely used in the short
course instruction. The new agricul-
tural building will be occupied for the
fret time by The short course students
! this winter.
An illustrated pamphlet has been is
sued which describes these courses and

dry corn. n the corn 10 not thoroughly
dry when heavy freezing comes, is al
most invariably injured 10 termination
and the strength OF germination Of corn
has a great deal more to do with the
yield than is commonly SUPP o1ed.
There are number OF ways iu which
corn can be stored so as to keep it dry
and Of strong termination during the
winter, such as, hanging up by the
husks or on wires or storing in racks rs
has been mentioned. Where man has
an attic or vacant room 10 the house, it
is frequently good plan to use that for
seed corn storage.
The method of artificially drying seed
corn is not OF much Importance in Mis-.
souri, where the falls are usually long,
but IL storage place can be found
where the temperature does not run
much below freezing, this is desirable.
The important point in the whole mat
ter of storage is to get the corn dry
quickly and keep it dry. II this is done,
the termination is almost sure to be
good. M. +. MILLER.
