FRISCO'S OUTLET
WILL BE MOBILE,

New York, Nov 1S.-That the ac-
QUESTION by the Frisco of the New
Orleans, Mobile and Chicago Railroad
with big terminal facilities at Mobile,
was responsible for the clash between
the Missouri Pacific and Frisco Rail
road systems which resulted in the
abrogation of contract by which the
Frisco was to use the tracks Of the
Missouri Pacifc to reach New Or
leans, there is little doubt. The noti-
fication to the Frisco line by the Mis-
souri, Pacific, after an apparently ad-
mirable arrangement had been made
by virtue of which there was to have
been a ninety year traffic agreement
could not be carried out, admits Of no
other Interpretation. The effect of
the cancellation Of the agreement, ac-
cordng to prominent railroad finan-
ciers, is to at once force the Frisco to
reach the Gulf coast from Memphis
over the road recently acquired, with
an outlet at Mobile.

orally scrubby. Most seed which fails
to grow fails because it has been
frozen while still moist. The freez-
ing of dry corn does not injure it
for seed, but if 1T is frozen before it
is thoroughly dry, it is likely to be
more or less injured
$50 every ear of corn for seed
should be harvested and hung up in
dry, well ventilated place not later
than October L."
There are numerous ways of gath
ering seed corn and storing it, but for
the average farmer the Iowa agricul-
tural experiment station recommends
this method:
Select the best and earliest planted
fields and go into them with bag or
basket slung over the shoulder on a
special mission of finding the best
ears of corn in those fields. Select
the well-matured ears from the most
vigorous stalks. Something like is
or 20 bushels should be picked for
each 40 acres of corn it is proposed
to plant next year. That will be
enough for still closer selection
later on.
Strip the ears of their husks and
make ready to store them. Then
take piece of binder twine, Is or 16
feet long, double 1t and tie the ends
together. One man should hold this
string while another attaches the
corn. Let the man who holds the
string center 1t on the floor at his
feet so that the two strands are about
or 6 inches apart, stretching them
apart with his fingers. Let the other
man lay the first ear of selected corn
on the string on the floor. The man
with the string should then cross the
strands, passing one hand within the
loop held by the other The second
ear Is then laid upon the string just
above the crossing place, and then
the strings are drawn back to theil
first position. This is repeated until
about dozen ears are fastened In
the string. The upper end Is ther
tied and 1t is ready to hang up.
Hang the corn strings in some attic
or upstairs room where the windows
can be opened to give circulation Of
air during October and November. A
| space 3XS feet will hold enough tc
plant 200 acres. This method of stor
ing gives better protection from the
mice, 1t gives better circulation Of
air, which allows the corn to dry
thoroughly and therefore protects II
from moulding and sprouting and
from being frozen while it is sappy.
Make the selection of seed corn g
definite job for a day or two days, as
necessary. Fix that day at time
when the corn is sure to be mature
but early enough to escape killing

Cotton Seed for Feeding.

Writing TO Prof. w. j. Kennedy, Of
the department of animal husbandry
at Iowa state college, Kanawah cat
tie feeder asks about the relative
merits of cotton seed meal and cold
pressed cotton seed cake as a sup
Elementary feed. Cold pressed cot
tonseed cake runs less in price than
cottonseed meal and 1t also runs con-
siderable less in food value. 1t really
has less feeding value than mixture
of two parts cottonseed meal and one
of the cottonseed hulls. At this rate,
when cottonseed meal is worth about
$50 per ton and hulls at SIS per ton,
cold pressed cottonseed cake will be
worth about $21.50 per ton.

THE
SEED CORN
Practical Suggestions for the
Fall Harvest

Foresight says that the Iowa farm
or ought to be thinking now about
gathering his seed corn.
Every ear of corn intended for
seed should be harvested and hung
up in dry, we'll ventilated place two
weeks before danger of a killing
frost" urges Prof. NJ. L. Mosher,
farm crop expert of the extension de-
partment of the Iowa state college.
THAT means not later than October l
in Iowa, SO the seed corn problem is a
present problem that needs present
thought and attention.
The value of good seed cannot be
overestimated. The ordinary Iowa
farmer gets an average of about Is
bushels of corn per acre in good
year. The better farmers get from
so to 60 bushels or the average
