II seed corn has been saved early
in the season and put in a good
dry place, the owner is safe. AS 1t
only takes about II ears to plant
an acre, the culling out OF injured
ones this year will be the most pro
fitable work of the season. If the
farmer must depend on selection
from the crib, the following plan
is suggested:
+ Make a box about 3 feet square
and a inches deep. Fill to n
inch of the top with sand or saw
dust and 'moisten thoroughly, not
saturated. Cut a piece Of muslin
to fit the box, divide in squares 2
inches each way by ruling with a
yard stick and lead pencil. Num-
Der each 'sluare-then number ears
to correspond. Take 10 kernels
from various parts of each ear and
place in the square with proper
number. Place another square of
well moistened muslin over the
corn, then throw several thichen-
esses OF muslin or old sacks over
the top to prevent drying too
quickly. Set the box under the
stove where there is a constant
temperature OF T5o to 500 Fahren-
heit. Moisten the top muslin well
every other day and replace cover.
Save for planting only those ears
which had at least 3 kernels to pro
duce good thrifty plants in s 20
days, In two days actual time one
man a test enough corn to plant
so acres and by getting germinable
seed can frequently increase his
crop 5 to 10 per cent.

new WAY OF GIVING
JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER STARTS
FUND WITH S25O,OOO,OOO.
He Will Then Only Have s500,00o,-
900 Left for Himself and Relatives
His Idea Is to Have This Govern
ment Supervise the Disposing of
Vast Sum.

The Rockefeller foundation will con-
stitute fortune of S25o,0OO,00O. But
even the segregation of the stupendous
amount from the fortune of John d.
Rockefeller will not leave him poor.
He will still have approximately $780,
100000.
The first authoritative utterance con-
corning the great Rockefeller founda-
ton was made by Starr J. Murphy, the
personal legal adviser of John d.
Rockefeller, and the man who is work
ing on the legal and legislative status
OF the foundation.
"This is no sudden whim, no emo
tional expression, no hasty move on
the part of Mr.. Rockefeller" said Mr.
Murphy. "Rather is it the elimination
of lifelong habit of giving, brought
to fullness by experience. 1t is the
fulfillment Of a determination to de-
vote a large part of his wealth to the
benefit of humanity.
''The real objects of the foundation,
after it has settled to It's work under
a charter granted by the congress OF
the United States, are to promote the
well being and advance of the civiliza-
ton of the people of the United States
and, after, foreign lands, in the acqui-
sition and dissemination of knowledge;
in the relief of suffering and in pro
motion of all the elements of human
progress.
Is Left to Trustees.
"What form the endeavor to pro
mote human progress shall take, tc
whom benefactions shall be extended
and what manner of progress shall be
assisted, Mr.. Rockefeller leaves entirely
to the trustees who may in future years
be in control of the funds. No man
possesses sufficient wisdom to compre
bend what conditions may arise hun
bred years hence. He believes that
any attempt to surround a great bene
faction with limitations to specific pur
poses defeats the good sought. The
judgment of the men today is superior
to the foresight of any previous genera
ton. 1t is not for the dead to dictate
to the living who may be surrounded
by different conditions and altered cir
cumstances.
