Selecting Seed Corn in the Field.

Selecting Seed Corn in the Field.
There is no better way for the
farmer to spend a half day during
late August and and early Septem-
Der than in selecting his seed corn
in the field for next years crop. It
is safe to say that the time thus
spent will pay him more than the
time given to almost any other
farm work.
There are many ways Of select
ing seed corn in the field. The
following is the simplest, and
should be adopted Ivy every corn
grower in Louisiana who has never
tried to improve his own corn by
careful selection:
Go to the field of corn out Of
which you wish to save your seed;
choose the best part Of the. field;
look for good stalks with good ears,
and mark them with a red rag
string. If your corn is Of the large.
cared variety. every stalk should
have at least one good, large,
sound ear; if it is prolific variety,
no stalk should be marked unless
it has two or more good ears.
Now, what is good stalk? 1t
should stand eight to ten feet high;
be large at the base and tapering
to the top-not spindly; it should
stand erect, have good, brace roots,
and twelve to sixteen big, broad
leaves; it should carry ears at
height of from four to FIVE feet
measuring from the middle of the
row to the base Of the ear; the ears
should droop at maturity; that is
the shanks should be from six tt
eight inches long. The farmer
should note particularly the length
Of the shuck. No ear should be
marked for seed, the tip Of which
is not fully and completely covered
by the shuck. No stalk should bt
marked unless the ear or ears Cal
be plainly seen to be Of good size
The farmer should mark the stalks
as explained above as soon a
possible.
Before he crop is gathered, hi
should carefully go through hi
field and gather the best ear from
every stalk that has been marked
These marked ears should b
shucked and kept free from weevil
aud away from mice. Twice a
many ears should be selected a
the farmer will need for seed th
next year. During the winter, thi
corn should be placed on a tabl
and careful selection made
throwing out all defective ears an
keeping only good ears for ne,
years crop.-Dept. Agricultur;

OIL REFINERS WILL
ATTEND BIG MEETING

BAKERSFIELD, Feb. 26.-There is
every indication that the invitation is
sized by A. H. Liscomb to the retiners OF
the state to get together on March IN
Bakersfield will be almost unanimously
accepted. DR.. Liscomb has received
many assurances from those In the
business that they will be present, and
from other sources it has been learned
that nearly every refinery will be rep
resented.
AS far as can be learned, also, there
is a general willingness to enter into an
agreement, provided this can be done
along the lines which will insure abso-
lutte safety of each and every refinery
making common cause, and the plan
suggested by the California Oil World
that is to initiate the organization of
the Independent Oil Producers is looked
upon with much favor. 1t seems to be
the case that the agency plan will fit
the refineries and assure their prosper
ity, with slight notifications. This
plan has worked out well with the pro-
ducers, tending to build up each mem
ber without tearing down, but rather
promoting the prosperity of all.

80 TONS DAILY
ECONOMY MAKES PRODUCTION
PROFITABLE
HEFFERN LEDGE YIELDS SIX
SACKS OF GOLD ORE
Esperanto Mine in San Xavier District
Is Scene of Strike at 800 Feet
Depth-Arizona
News

GLOBE, Feb. 26.-An increase in the
daily shipments of ore from the War
rior mine has been made during the
past week. About eighty tons are now
shipped every day to the Eel Paso
smelter. The average assay value of
this is over 10 per cent copper. The
bulk of this ore is from Slopes located
between the 200 and 300-foot Levels and
is principally chrysocolla. If the width
of the vein at these levels is the same
at greater depths, this mine will con-
tinue as one of the largest producers
of the Globe quadrangle.
The economical handling of the ore
in the mine keeps the average cost of
copper production at this property at
a fairly low figure. The two miles of
hauling in wagons to the Miami rail-
road station is the greatest expense
connected with the operation. The
vein will probably be drilled into at
a depth of about 600 feet on the Long
View claim at the southwestern part
of the property. The churn drill has
been operating at this location for the
past two weeks. About sixty men are
employed.

Six Sacks of Ore

DOUGLAS, Feb. 26.-Albert Heffern,
president and general manager of the
Heffern Mining & Development COM
pany, has arrived from the mine,
bringing with him six sacks of the
rich gold ore recently encountered on
the gold ledge of the company, on
which work was recently started. This
ore is to be put through a cyanide test,
being distributed to Heller & Wright,
Tomlinson & Norton. and A. F. Pelle-
gria, assayers of this city. This was
taken from two separate workings on
the gold ledge so feet apart.
Mr.. Heffern says the development of
the gold ledge had already proceeded
sufficiently to make sure that. a gold
mill will be established on the proper
ty. 1t is also quite likely that much
of the ore will be shipped before the
mill is provided.

TUCSON, Feb. 26.-The Esperanza
mine in the San Xavier district has
made a very important strike on the
300-foot level. The entire face of the
drift is in high grade silver and lead
ore, which also carry good values in
gold and copper. Returns from car
shipment made about a week ago re-
turned a net profit of over $500. A
shipment made at a still later date,
and from which no returns have yet
been received, is expected to net $220O
a car. Manager Roberts is pleased with
the new developments, as they sustain
the prediction he made of the property
at the time he accepted the manage
ment of it, The future of the Esperan-
"a he believes to be exceedingly bright.
