The next point to look for is size.
Other things being equal, the large
sample always stands the best
chance. Do not select sappy, imma-
ture ears in order to get size, how
ever
Be sure that none of the ears have
been frozen, as corn that can not
pass the termination test will not
receive prize.
The rows should be straight, and
the kernels uniform and deep. 1t is
desirable that butts and tips be well
filled but this is not as important
as some of the other points.

MEETING OF PRESIDENTS.
Great Showing Of Mexican Military
When Taft and Diaz Meet.

Great Showing Of Mexican Military
When Taft and Diaz Meet.
The Mexican government proposes
making an effective display Of at least
the numerical strength Of it's army
upon the occasion Of the meeting of
Presidents Taft and Diaz at Ell Paso,
Tex. The Mexican war department
announces that the military demon
stration will surpass anything of its
kind in recent years and that between
5000 and 10000 soldiers will escort
General Diaz to the border and remain
there until his return from Ell Paso.
Every branch Of the army will be rep
resented.
It is believed that the government
has taken advantage Of the occasion
to make a military demonstration for
the benefit Of the revolutionists who
are referred to as Reyes agitators.
The different detachments Of the army
will give exhibitions and participate
In maneuvers en- route from the CAPT
tai northward.
General Trevino, the most highly re-
garded commander of Mexico. will be
in charge of the troops. He is making
great preparations to impress the dis
contented natives with the power of
the service.
It is announced that the United
States will be represented by about
5000 soldiers, under command of Gen.
eral Meyer of the department of Tex
as. Accompanying President Taft's es-
cort will be three military bands, one
Of which will be the mounted band of
fifty musicians known as the White
Troopers band. Mexico,s army win
not furnish any band, but there will
be four other bands with General
Diaz's party on the journey to the Rio
Grande. r
According to the program for the
entertainment and reception Of Presi-
dents Taft and Diaz, there will be
three dinners for these distinguished
officials on Oct. 16 in Ell Paso, Tex
This program is announced by Ignacio
de la Barra, congressman from the
City of Mexico and brother to the

has refused to discuss her vast arma-
ments, that the whole of her ship
building yards are engaged in naval
construction, that scores of her lead
ing writer's make no secret of her in
tentions, that she has on previous oc-
casions made unprovoked and sudden
attacks on other nations and that the
vessels she is building are designed for
commerce destroying purposes and for
fighting with an enemy that is near at
hand
'We know also that the kaiser has
said in public declaration that the
future of Germany is on the water.

Ten Days Ride at oallop on . Gun

In times OF peril in Persia the medical
missions have proved to be the safest
places not only for Europeans. but also
for the Persians themselves. DR.. Emme-
line Stuart. niece of the veteran Bishop
Stuart, had remarkable story to tell OF
her own experiences when preparing to
leave the country.
The only escort available through the
disturbed country from Ispahan to Te-
heran was offered to her by the military
authorities. and she accepted 1t, to find
that it entailed travelling on a gun car
riage harnessed six in hand and that for
ten days double stages were effected at a
hard gallop. while the shelter of the car
riage formed her canopy at night.
DR.. Stuart testified to the unfailing couf-
tesy and kindness of the officers to the
traveller placed in their charge and reas-
sured the committee as to the absolute
safety of the missionaries during this pc
riod of unrest by saying that the mission
! compound at Ispahan was one Of the
safest place in the city. In fact, members
of the families of officers of the shah
