How To Test Seed Corn.

Enough ears to plant twenty acres can be tested in a single day with a home made tester
 The best way to test seed corn is in a gerp,ination box. This is simple affair and can be made by anyone in an hours time.
 Take box six inches deep and about two by three feet in size. Fill the box about half full of moist, dirt, sand or sawdust. Press it we'll down so it will have a smooth even surface. Now take white cloth about the size of the box, rule it off checker board fashion. making squares one and a half inches each way. Number the checks 1, 3, 3, and on. Place this over the sand, dirt or sawdust.
 Take the ears to be tested and either lay them out on the flour and mark number in front of each or attach number in front of each or attach a numbered tag. Now take off about six kernels from each ear (not all from the same place, but at several points on all sides ) Put these kernels on the squares corresponding in number to those placed on the ears of corn. Be careful not to get them mixed. Keep the ears numbered to correspond exactly with the numbers on the squares of cloth.
 After the kernels have been placed carefully on the cloth which covers the moist sand or dirt or sawdust, cover them with another cloth, considerably larg- CT than the box; cover this cloth with about two inches of the same moist sand and keep the box in a warm place. It must not get cold.
 The kernels will germinate in four to six days.
 Remove the cover care fully to avoid misplacing the kernels Examine them carefully. Some will have long sprouts but al- most no roots; others will not have grown at all, but the ker- nels from ears which will pro- duce corn if planted, will have both sprouts and good root sys- tems.
 Compare the numbers on the squares with those on the ears. Put back into the feeding corn bin the ears which correspond in number to the numbers on the squares where the kernels did not grow or where they showed only weak roots.
 The ears numbered corres- bonding to those on the cloth which showed strong signs of life are the ones to preserve for seed. Every kernel from these ears should produce a stalk, every stalk an ear.
 Suppose one dead ear is plant ed. The planter fails to get one thousand stalks of corn-almost twelve bushels of corn lost.

Free Sample
 For Baby's IIls

Something can and must be done for the puny, crying baby, for the child that refuses to eat and is rest less in its sleep. And since the basis of all health is the proper working of the digestive organs, look first to the condition of the stomach and bowels.
 child should have two full and free movements of the bowels a day This emptying of the bowels is very important as with 1t comes a clear head. light ness of step. good appetite and sound know what to give the child in the emergency of constipation and indiges- tion. Cathartics are too strong and salts and other purgatives are not only too strong, but the child refuses them be- cause of their bad taste. Have you ever tried Dr. Caldwels Syrup Pepsin? It is e liquid tonic that families have been mild, pleasant-tasting and promptly ef- fsetive; lee Vs;,s It is good for you as well as be found for children. They like it's taste take it.
 First of all. if you have not yet used 1t. Dr. Caldwell would like to send you a sample bottle free of charge. In this way you can try it before buying. Later, when convinced of its merits you can get 1t of your druggist at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle. just as thousands of other families are doing. The family of MT. D. W. Spangler of Strattonville. Pa. as well as that of MT. A. F. Johnson of Walnut Grove. Tenn. started with 1t in that way and now write that it is their one family necessity next to food itself If you are unfortunate enough to have a sickiy child; one given to constipation and Indigestion, you should send for a free sample of this remedy
 Dr. Caldwell personally will be pleased to give you any medical advice you may desire for yourself or family pertaining to the stomach, liver or bowels absolutely free of charge. Explain your case in a letter and he win reply to you in detail. name and address on c postal card or otherwise. For either request the doctors address is Dr. ".
