Mrs. Head is the author Of many
beautiful verses, and her intimate

The first verse of one of these, 1.-The
Melancholy Crow runs plaintively as
follows: s.
"A big black Grow sat in tree
And wept; large tears were falling
His Mate sat near with words of cheer
And all his friends were calling"
In the second and third verses Mr..
Crow explains the cause, of his SAD
and weird tones when he says that ne
cant cheer up" he ''lost hope ana
ambition" because he could only
"caw." "Twas e'er my aim to win
wide fame, and be Great Musician
In the other poem, ''The Brides
Lesson" the performance of the little
songsters is we'll described by Mrs.
Head when "the pupils and Miss
Bluebird" give song recital In the

SEED CORN IS
THEME OF TALKS
BUSINESS MEN AND FARMERS DIS
cJss,Ne IMPORTANT STAPLE
CROP AT MEETING TODAY.
URGE SEED. TESTS
Several Farmers Report the Results
of Tests Made With Seed Corn
and Show That Condition
is Bad.

More than fifty persons, made up OF
members of the Retail Merchants and
Commercial associations and many
farmer guests of the two organizations
were gathered today in an open meet
ing preceded by a luncheon at the
rooms of the associations this after
noon to talk over the seed corn situa.
ton in this locality. The results OF
tests already made by some and gen.
eral warning to all farmers on the
conditions of seed corn this year was
made the feature of the talks in
the meeting. About twenty-six farmers
were guests of the seed corn commit
tees of the two associations which are
Jointly responsible for the meeting.
Tests of corn were shown in bottles
as exhibits Of the seed that will bear
and the seed that is worthless. The
committees have 1000 pamphlets pre-
pared by Prof. H. D. Hughes OF Ames
on how to make home made testers for
seed corn. These have been distributed
to the farmers present at the meeting
and will, be sent by mail upon applica-
ton to the committees by any farmer
desiring copies
Condition is Bad.
The luncheon overwith about 1880
the assembly was then called to order
by President A. H. Nelson of the Re-
tail Merchants association, the direc-
tors of which body being present at
the luncheon. A number of the men
present both of Ottumwa and in the
country were called upon for talks
touching upon the seed corn problem.
A number of the men from the coun-
try made interesting and instructive
talks on their experiences in making
tests of seed corn, and confirmed the
reported bad condition of seed corn in
Iowa. The small per cent of seed that
will bear crop was shown plainly
by some of the speakers, all of whom
urged the testing of all seed
corn that is to be planted this
spring if crop is expected. The
speakers made plain that It will be
necessary for the farmer to test his
corn before planting if he would have
a crop, and warned against treating
this matter lightly. ~
The meeting extended we'll into the
afternoon before the various speakers
were through and the result of the
gathering cannot but mean much good
for the corn growers in this vicinity.
Those farmers who have made tests
and they who have not yet tested their
seed corn, were alike enthusiastic as
to the importance of the meeting, and
all lent the closest attention to what
was brought out by the speakers. The
conditions that apply here will be
fully appreciated by all present by the
close of the meeting and those who
grow corn will have been informed by
the committees as we'll as by their
fellow farmers who attended the meet
ing, If they evince the least interest
in learning the seriousness of the
corn situation.
