we'll covered. In the spring, befof>
planting time, every ear should be
tested, especially when there is any
doubt as to it's vitality. We have box
fixed for this purpose; it is four feet
long by three feet wide by six inches
deep. We have bored holes through
the sides two inches from the bottom
and 21a inches apart; through these
holes we have stretched fine wire,
both lengthways and crossways, thus
dividing the box into h-inch squares.
AT one end these rows of squares are
numbered; along one side the squares
in each row are numbered. When
ready to test the corn, we get enough
moist, rich dirt to fill the box up even
with the wire; next we number the
ears to be tested. For example, tho
first ear is marked ear one, row one;
the next, ear two, row one. When We
have enough for the first row, the
first ear in the second row is marked
ear one, row two, and so on. When
the ears are all numbered, take four
or five grains from different parts of
each ear and plant them in the square
with the corresponding number. In
this box we can test about 275 ears at
one time. OF course, the box can be
larger or smaller, as the case may de-
mand.

In regard to the type of ear to Sc

essential: The main object in view is
the production of as large a quantity
of grain to the ear as possible; the
ear should be cylindrical in shape,
about ten inches in length and ~
inches in circumference. Both ends
should be well filed out with large
kernels. The rows of kernels, as we'll
as the kernels themselves, should be
closely pressed together, in order that
the ear will be compact and solid.
Each ear can be readily tested for
weight by weighing the entire ear

MAKING MONEY
RAISING SKUNKS
How the Animals Are Bred and
Why their Breeding Profitable.

Skunk farming is becoming an i'm
portant industry in some parts of the
United States, and yet the man who
suggested it was regarded as mentally
unsound. To-day there are hundreds
of such farms on paying basis.
The average skunk produces a
quart of oil and the fur or skin always
brings good price, fashion regu-
lating the value. At the present time
the skins which are the most valuable
are the darker ones. A pure black
skin is worth from s1.25 to $3.50, ac-
cording to the quality and size; a
striped skunk skin brings in the mar
ket about 90 or 60 cents, while those
with part stripe are worth in the
neighborhood of dollar.
1t has been figured out that a man
who understands skunk farming can
begin on 30 skunks, Is females and
five males, and in few years he can
have healthy bank account. 1t is
not difficult to calculate how rapidly
these 20 skunks will increase in num-
ber. Say you begin work early in the
iiii anu IiidI III bSCthlDSI lnty
At once you have an increase of 120
skunks, putting the average of each
litter at eight. In June they breed
again, and if the same ratio of in
crease be kept up, at the expiration
of a year and half you will have
7,495 skunks.
Put the pelts at one dollar each, the
pelts of 200 male skunks would bring
5000; the oil at so cents an ounce
would be worth $500. Then figuring
as was done on the increase in
skunks, at the expiration of year
and half you could kill 300 male
skunks, the pelts of which would be
worth that many dollars.
The amount of oil gathered froIn
this number would be 29,6O0 ounces,
worth just S14,S00 AT the expiration
of four years you would have killed
1,S90,000 males, the pelts of which
would be worth S1,S9O,OO0, and the oil,
15,120,000 ounces, worth $7,560,0oO
And you would still have 100000
skunks left!
1t is not surprising that skunk
farming is being taken up throughout
the country, and if it was possible to
deodorize the skunk the industry
would be even more popular.

In obtaining seed corn from places
at distance 1t is always best to Sc
cure it in the ear, because in this
form it can be picked over, judged
and all ears that are not suited for
planting may be thrown aside, while
IL 1t Is shelled no such selection can
be made.
The selection of seed corn by the
farmer from his own crop is generally
accomplished in one of three ways:
First, by picking out the seed after
the corn has been cribbed; second, by
selecting the best ears while gather
ing, and third, by going into the field
before harvesting time and selecting
the most desirable ears. OF these
three ways my experience has shown
the last to be the best, because bet
ter selection can be made when that
ia the only aim in view and when the
entire plant, and not simply the ear.
can be considered. Whatever the
method, more seed than is really need
ed should be selected, in order that
a second wedding oup of the poor
est ears just before planting may still
leave enough good seed.
On our farm we have tried still
another method for obtaining the best
seed corn-namely, to grow it in a
special plot of ground. We used the
following method: Take any number
of selected ears-say SO, for example
and plant them in so separate
parallel rows, one ear to the row.
This makes it necessary for the plot
of ground to be at least so corn rows
wide, and it should be long enough for
the planting of about two-thirds of an
ear in each row. If possible, this
ground should be as far removed from
other fields of corn as can be, to pre-
vent outside pollination. To further
protect from foreign pollen we have
found 1t good plan to take the re-
naming one-third of the selected corn
and use it to plant border around
the breeding plot. Before the pollen
natures every alternate row is detas
seled, to prevent self or close pollina,

The best land bargains to-day are found in
the prosperous Southwest.
The Panhandle and South Plains region of

Dry Potatoes for Food.-According
to the Magdeburgische Zeitung, Consul
Frank S. Hannah says that the recent
experiments in the drying of potatoes
under the auspices of the imperial in
terror department has had such good
results that a new and important field
of activity may be offered for the Ger
man farmers.
The potatoes are reduced by this
process to about one-quarter of their
original weight and can be kept in
good condition in this compressed
form for an indefinite length of time.
The military authorities have made
thorough experiments with this prod.
uct and have become convinced that
its nutritious value is fully equal to
that of corn, and that the dried pota
toes can take the place of one-third Of
