In 1906 the first State Germ

D. Since that tine there have
been two others: one at Mitchell
and one at Sioux Falls. From
January 18th to 22nd, 1910 will
be held in the city Of Mitchell,
the fourth Corn State Show.
The past shows have been
given over entirely TO the ex.
hibiting and study OF corn. At
the last meeting Of the Associs.
tiou it was decided that grain
should be added and that the
Association from now on should
be South Dakota Corn l. Grain
Growers Association.
South Dakota il comiug 70 be

it hardly seems light that the
two lines OF work should be

Premiums are also offered on

The seed corn situation IN The
state this year II very critical
because OF the hard freeze con-
Ing 20 early in the season with
ont the corn being In shape for
this freess. On this account Is
ID poinsed ont that the corn
school which ID held in connsc-
tion with the show, should -
attended by every corn grower
and everyone interested in seed
corn. For this season more
than any other, according 70
thuse at the head Of the show, Is
is important that one know
something about the selecting
and testing Of his seed SO - TO
get the best results. The school

OF the State Agricultural COL
lege. Prof. Willis will be assist
ed by corn men bo.E from with

Those who have been in this
work will be called upon 10 give
special talks along these lines.
II is planned that everything In
con nec.ion with the show and
school shall be educational in
value and it IS urged that no
farmer can spend four or 6ve
days to better advantage than
st the State Corn Show and corn
school Not only will the farm
ers be able 70 get this instruc.
ton from the experts, but
they will have occasion TO brush
up against the best corn grow
ere that the State of S0uth Da-
kota produces ADD will thus
have an opportunity 70 exchange
ideas on the growing, breed ing
and sele ction Of corn.
1t is expected that Gov. Eber
hart OF Minnesota viii address
the meeting on one OF the davs-
Prof. Crossley, OF Ames, will b
| in attendance at the show two
days and will address the meet
ing several times during the
time he is present. II Il ex-
pscted that Prof. Holden. the
famous corn expert Of Iowa,
will address the meeting at one
time. though it has not yet been
definitely Y arranged for.
Outside OF the exhibition and
the school, the premiums that
are ofYered on the best corn are
worth considering. Premiums
all the way from $i.o0 to ts5. ~
each are listed to be offered tor
the best corn exhi bited in the
various classes and districts 0l

ficit in the money appropriated by con

reserve in Western Montana and
Northern Idaho and on the private
lands within them already have

Why Boiled Water Freezes Easily.
Water which is hot Of course cannot
freeze until II has parted with Its heat.
but water that has been boiled will.
other things being equal. freeze sooner
than water which has not been boiled.
A slight disturbance Of water disposes
II to freeze more rapidly. and this Is
the cause which accelerates the freez-
ing Of boiled water. The water that
has been boiled has lost the air natu-
rally contained In 1t. which on ex-
posure to the atmosphere It begins
again to attract and absorb During
this process Of absorption motion Is
necessarily produced among It's parti-
cles. slight certainly and impercepti-

Indeed. water when kept perfectly still
can be reduced several degrees below
