Adrian, Mich, August GOV. II.
Toms of Palmyra found 912 pearls
in one Raisin river clam yesterday
AS proof of his remarkable luck,
Toms brought the shell with the
pearls to Adrian for market.
Although many Of them were
small, fully 100 were large enough
to be remarkable and at least fifty
were perfect specimens of river
pearl.
Toms pursues his clam hunting
in a scientific manner and digs only
in certain kinds of soil along the
river banks.

FREAK OF LIGHTNlN G

John Newson, a farmer who lives
near Wirth, in the northern part of
this county, went to Mammoth
Spring a few days ago with a load
of railroad ties. A storm came up
and he tied his team--a mule and a
horse-under a tree and sought
shelter A particularly sharp
thunder clap caused him to run to
his team for fear the animals might
be frightened, He found the mule
lying dead, while the horse was un-
injured. The mule was tied to a
limb of the tree, which may ac-
count for the phenomenon. The
wagon tongue was split. There was
not mark on the mules body, and
the tree showed no signs of having
been struck by the Lightning,

CLAY SLOANS LETTER

We must fall in line with the
GREAT wave passing over the South
which has for its object the produc-
ton of more and better corn. The
South is a corn as well as a cotton
county, but in my opinion proper
attention has not been given to seed
corn selection. Corn responds to
intelligent effort and Improvement
more quickly than does any other
plant. 1t is also very easily inlluenc-
ed by change Of climate, For this
reason, seed corn should be grown
in the locality in which it is to
be used. We attach much impor-
tance to heredily and breeding in
the case of live stock. It's OF equal
importance in seed selection. With
but little care and trouble the farm
er can improve his seed from year
to year. The yield per acre may
very easily be increased three to
ten bushels when proper methods
of seed selection are used
If you have a small patch Of
Grourd that looks pretty good, and
If the ground Is neither too fertile
nor too poor, it would be better to
select seed corn for the first year
from this patch,
When the ears are approaching
maturity, 90 into the field and make
a preliminary selection. The stalk
itself should be eight or nine feet
tall, having broad, well developed,
well colored leaves and a strong,
well formed, healthy tassel The
stalk should be upright, large and
sturdy at the base and toperine eV-
enly at the top An ear with n
close fitting shuck and with a tend
ency to turn downward should be
selected, An ear that natures ear
Ily should be preferred, If you find
only one ear on stalk that meets
your approval, select that ear If
two ears are well developed, select
both. When gathering time comes
throw these previously selected ears
into a box attached to the side OF
the wagon,
These ears should be placed IN
the loft Of the barn or In some dry
place where the air clrculates free
". This will enable the car to dry
out quickly and loss of terminating
power by freezing will be prevented
