Seed corn should be selected
now. By preference select it while
on the hill, so that you can choose
with reference to the entire plant.
None but fully ripe corn should
be saved. Unripe corn will not
terminate, or if so, but feebly.
The ear should be chosen from a
stalk of medium height, the ear
carried we'll up. the whole ap-
pearance Of the stalk being one of
vigorous growth.
The ear should be even in size
from butt to tip, with medium
shank, the tip filled out plump,
the rows Of corn compact, the ear
solid under twisting strain in
the hands.
The corn should be unmixed.
The ear should be of fair size for
its kind. but too large are not to
be desired.
The kernels should be deep,
wedge shaped, bright, hard. The
tip kernels should be we'll sized
and mature.
A big butt, COLBY tip. soft kerr
nels, uneven rowing, large space
between kernels, soft cob-these
things make an ear unfit for seed
purposes.
Carefully select the corn, put it
in a dry place where there is no
steam, and where it is fairly warm,
as 4 clean, dry attic. Protect it
from mice. Test every ear next
spring to see if any do not grow.

scored on / Ithacans. Captain Ingls
made a beaet.ful drop kick square be-

Two costly . sjudged punts were direct
ly responsible for two of Cornells touch
downs. Monk made one of them after
seven minutes of play and three PUSHES
put 1t over. Captain Tydeman pulled off
one of the brilliant plays of the game a
few minutes later by catching a swift
forward pass from Wood who hurled 1t
from the five-yard line, and by clever
lodging helped cross the line for a touch
down.
Less than two minutes after the second
half opened another muffed punt gave
Cornell the ball on their opponents To-

the largest Independent manufacturers
in the country, went into effect yester-
day Various reports that the reduc-
ton amounted to 10 per cent. ana
would affect $4,000 men, were investi-
gated yesterday, and according to w. I.
Jones, general manager of the COM
pany. the reports are not correct.
The readjustment results on account
of the depression in business. due to
the fear of reduction in the tariff. ."
he said. 1T has become necessary to
cut down expenses in every direction.
The cut is not a horizontal one.
Whether it would average 10 per cent.
is hard to say. However, about 5000
men are affected"
The open market condition in the
iron and steel trade has finally forced
reimbursement OF the wage scale Of
mills in the Pittsburg district Other
firms announcing reduction yester-
day were the W. P. Snyder company
iron manufacturers, and several local
plants Of the Republican Iron & Steel
company.
While no official statement has been
made by the United States steel corpo-
