TIME TO TEST SEED CORN.
Prof. Holden Says All Corn Should
be Tested Before Mar. Goth.

Seed corn testing time has arriv-
ed. According to Professor p. G..
Holden of the Ames Agricultural
college the important work of test
ing seed should not be later than
March 20. Many farmers who have
reaped the benefit of seed testing
last fall, carefully selected their
best ears for planting this coming
spring. Even these should test ev-
cry ear according to Prof Holden,
to be sure of the vitality of the
corn. Those who did not select and
carefully preserve their seed last
fall should exercise all the more
care, choosing the best appearing
testing can now be done when the
farm demands are not so exacting
on the worker. 1t can be done by
the farmer and members of his
family Any person not familiar
with the method can be informed
free by writing to Professor Holden,
who in discussing the testing recent
ly said, There is everything to be
gained and nothing to be lost in
testing seed. If this work is fairly
we'll done, it will increase the yield
on our farms from the present av-
erage of thirty-four bushels per
acre to forty-four bushels per acre.
One additional fourteen ounces of
ear corn to each hill will make forty
four bushels per acre. 1t is not only
possible to do this but the yield can
eventually be raised to "a bushels
per acre. The average township
grows about $4,000 bushels of corn
worth approximately $4,000. In
the average county with 100000
acres, we would have 100000
bushels increase over the present
yield, valued at 100000" Furth-
er discussing seed selection Prof.
Holden says, you must not import
seed corn from distance with
which to plant general crop. You
must secure it from some reliable
person in your vicinity"

DAMAGE FROM HIGH WATER.
Hundreds of Cattle, Sheep and Hogs
DEMONSTRATING Experiences.

AS a result of thawing of the
heavy snow, and continued rains last
week, streams in Iowa, especially in
the eastern portion, rose rapidly and
in some places have done immense
damage.
In the east, especially along the
Wapsie and Maquoketa rivers, hun
dreds of cattle, sheep and hogs were
drowned because of the sudden rise
in the streams. Residents have been
forced to remove to higher grounds.
Harold Tyron and Chas. Rice, trap
pers living on an island in the Wap-
sic river near Wheatland, were res
cued Thursday night after clinging
for "a hours to the branches of a
tree.
The two rivers were at the highest
since 1870 and have destroyed
bridges and dams at Monticello and
Coggon.
At Burlington the Mississippi riv-
er rose from one foot six inches to
six feet four inches in three days.

feet, but was not prepared for the
rush of water and the whole country
out there is flooded. The we'll flows

of a most excellent quality. Steps
have been taken to curb the flow and
when under control Mr.. McKone will

Steps Into Hot Pies.

Lake City, Ia, February 16.-
Morris Piper, a farmer living near
here stepped in two hot custard pies
and amputation of several toes may
be necessary. Piper returned home
at night and started to warm his
feet by the fire. He removed his
shoes and went into the adjoining
room to get his slippers. Mrs. Piper
had just finished some custard pies
and placed them on the floor to cool.
In the dark, Piper stuck one of his
feet in a pie and, uttering howl of
pain, stepped out of the one pie only
to put the other foot in the second
pie.
Before his stockings could be re-
moved the hot custard had worked
in between his toes, and he was
badly burned.

A New Kind of Ice Cream.

Small boys and people of poor di-
gestion need no longer curb their ap-
petite for ice cream, for the more
lacto they eat the healthier they
will become. Lacto is a new frozen
dairy product invented by the Iowa
Experiment Station. 1t is made of
loppered whole or skim milk with
the addition of eggs, sugar lemons,
and flavoring material. 1t has a very
pleasant flavor, and it supplies the
body with Tactic acid bacteria, which
eminent scientists say is a means of
improving health and prolonging
life. Copies of Bulletin 11S, describ-
ing lacto and telling h W to make
it, will be sent free on application
to the Iowa Experiment Station at
Ames.

A KINDLY FAREWELL.
What His Home Paper Says of De-
cOrah's New Merchant and
Family.

The Sullivan, Illinois, Democrat
has the following kindly farewell
for Mr.. E. j. Enslow and family,
who have come to DEBORAH to make
their home, and open a dry goods
store in the liver Larsen building:
SUCCESSFUL MERCHANT
AND PROMINENT FAMILY.
e. j. Enslow and family leave
this week for their new home in De-
corah, Iowa. Mr. Enslow will open
dry goods store in that city soon.
Since disposing of his store here he
has spent much time in searching for
a location suitable for home and
for successful business and he thinks
he has found the right place. Mr..
Enslow has established a reputation
as a business man and citizen of
which he and the people of Sullivan
are justly proud. We have never
had in our city a more desirable CT
tizen in every way. We know him
as business man, as citizen and
as a neighbor, and we know whereof
we speak.
Mr.. Enslow is not new in the dry
goods business but he will open a
brand new stock of goods in his
new location, as he is not connected
in with any other store.
OF his family we can speak in the
same complimentary manner as of
him and heartily recommend them
one and all to the good people
among whom they are going to
make their new home.
