A Trip TO Upton.

District Deputy Pepper, |. o. o.
F., went up to Upton Tuesday even
ing on the 'Fast Mall" and the edi-
tor of the REPUBLICAN went along for
company. We got there in time for
the opening of lodge, and had quite
an interesting session. The officers
present were installed by ID. ID. G..
NJ. Pepper, assisted by W. W. Kin
loch as n. G.. W., and Everett Pier
as ID. G.. NJ After a heart to heart
talk by Grand Secretary Wllkerson,
Upton Lodge decided on the cree
ton of a new hall, and with this move
we predict a big move forward for
the Upton "chain gang" After

was served those present, and ample
justice done to the good things pro-
vided. Bro. Pepper had ordered a
carriage for the return trip, but the
rain spoiled his calculations, so the
N. G.. and Secy. escorted the Yer
sailles crowd to the City Hotel fol-
the night. Uncle John Wassung had
gone up on the noon train, and made
a short visit over to Sedalia in the
afternoon, but was on hand to helI
in all the good work. Wednesday
morning it was decided that the re-
turn trip be made on the Nc. Pac
"Flyer" and all got safe home, glad
to have made the visit, and hope t.

New Hotel Inspection Law.

The new hotel inspection law en-
acted by the 45th general assembly
has been treated very largely as if it
related to the one question of the
length of the upper sheets Of the beds,
so that it is looked upon as an unim-
portant law, whereas the truth is it is
one of the most important laws passed
by the last legislature, and if it is full
ly complied with, will place the hotels
and rooming houses in 4 better con-
dition than those OF every state in the
union.
The objects of the law are, first,
for the protection of life and property
in case Of fire by obliging hotel and
rooming house proprietors to provide
either fire escapes on the outside Of

There is no more important factor con-
cerned III the production OF large yields
Of corn than the proper selection and
care Of the seed. The matter Of select
ing seed ears Of desirable quality is just
as important to the farmer who is grow
ing his own seed as Is the selection Of

varieties Of corn which we now have,
have been developed by careful select.

ion; but too often there is little or no at
tention given to this matter by our farm.
ers.
If a man can spare the time, the best
method of selecting seed corn, is to AL
low it to become thoroughly ripened III
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 a man can select ears only from
those stalks which have the normal
amount of room and which have the ears
at the proper height. Frequently COOL
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 and therefore had a much better
chance than the average, What we
want is a good ear produced on stalks
| which have only III average chance and
| which are good because OF some ieredi-
tary cause. Such ears will he more pro-
ductive thar those selected from isolated
stalks.
The next best way to select seed corn
is TO select the good ears as the corn is
being picked and throw these in a box
or 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, a considerably
larger amount Of corn should be thus
selected than is necessary for seed, = o it
will then be possible to ~reselect before
storing them for the winter.
This selected corn should be epread in
n thin layer on some convenient floor
space and allowed to dry out quickly.
Some men provide rough racks in which
to store this corn to favor its rapid dry
ing. Cold weather has little effect OH
dry corn. If the corn is not thoroughly
dry when heavy freezing comes, it is al
most invaribly injured in termination
and the strength Of termination of o
has a great deal more to do with the
yield than is commonly supposed.
There are a number OF ways in 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 as has
been mentioned. Where a man has an
attic or vacant room in the house. it i
frequently a good plan to use that for
seed corn storage,
The method Of artifci,llv drying seed
corn is not Of much importance in Mis-
souri, where the falls are usually long
: but il a storage place can be found where
s the temperature does not run much be
I low freezing, this is desirable. The i'm
!. portant point in the whole matter OF
t storage is to get the corn dry quick,
e and keep It dry. II this Is done, the ger
4 mination is almost sure to be good.
