Q.-What is the best method of cur
ing seed corn?
Ans. H. Shepperd. Dean Agricul-
tural Department
Seed corn should be husked before
freezing weather occurs in the fall
and put into dry place where the air
circulates WELL The ears are placed
or hung SO that they do not touch
each other, at least SO that they are
not more than two ears deep in layers
until they are dry. After that If they
are kept in PLACE where there is no
moisture coming from live stock shell
tered below or from bin of grain
they should keep satisfactorily until
it Is time to plant
Q.-What effect does aerating have
upon milk?
Ans.-G. L. Martin, Prof of Dairy
fng.
If aerating is done In clean air 1t
cools the milk and allows the animal
gases to pass off, but If done in dirty
or dusty surroundings many undesir-
able bacteria enter to cause the milk
to sour and to develop bad f1avors.
Q.-Should corn be drilled or check
ed?
Ans.-R. G. Doneghue, Prof. Of Ag-
ronomy.
Inasmuch as corn is grown largely
to clean the land and our farming op-
erations are carried on with machin-
cry, the only rational way to plant
corn is to check it, On land that is
quite weedy it is impossible to get all

Police Io Accent Rribes,

Chicago, Sept. 28.-Municipal Judge
John R. Newcomer surprised his fell
low judges and officials of the police
department when he ordered police
men to accept proffered bribes from
peddlers violating city ordinances, the
money to be used as fund to aid the
poor during the coming winter. At.
tempts by peddlers to bribe police
men have become extremely numerous
recently. "You should have accepted
the money for the aid Of the poor,'
said Judge Newcomer to one police
man who had refused bribe Of 16.

These aesults show that there is lit
tie protein feeding value in the hulls
of the kernels. In 1906 the variety Of
oats giving the highest percent Of
meat had 1872 per cent; the lowest
gave 61.3 per cent, difference of 14.9
per cent. While the protein in the
hulls does not represent their total
feeding value by far the most valuable
part is represented by it. This being
the case when oats are selling at
thirty-two cents per bushel there is a
half cents per bushel in favor of the
variety having the smaller per cent.
of hulls.
Determinations were also made to
find the effect Of double kernels or
pin kernels upon the percent. of hull
Oats produce two or three flowers in
q spikelet, the upermost one of which
is usually rudimentary. The rudi-
mentary kernel is sometimes called a
pin kernel Sixty Day and Tartarian
oats were used for this trial. The
Sixty Day oats have the two kernels
of very nearly the same size and very
little difference is found They are
connected at the base by short pedi-
eel. In the case of the Tartarian oat,
great difference is noted. In this case
the rudimentary kernel is small and
we'll clasped by the hull Of he large
one. Valuable work can be done in
reducing the effect of the pin kernels
and in breeding thin hulled oats.
From the foregoing trials with oats
the following conclusions are drawn:
1. Seasons favorable for a variety
Of oats decrease the percent. of hull.
2. Some varieties of oats give uni
formly higher percent of meat.
8. No correlation seems to exist
between the weight per bushel and
the percent. of meat to hulls.
4. AS the rudimentary kernels de-
crease in size they increase the per
cent. of hull up to certain degree.
8. The oat that weighs most per
bushel is not necessarily the most
valuable.
6. The thickness of the hull seems
to be somewhat hereditary.

Grand Forks.-All rainfall records
for the month of September at the
Grand Forks weather station have

the present time being greater than

fall of 5.97 inches. which is nearly
three times az great as the normal

cry wheels should be driven by the en-.

Q.-What is the cost of tiling q

Ans.-R. NJ. Dolve, Prof. of Rural
Engineering.
No definite answer can be given to
this question, as the cost will depend
upon a large number of variable fac.
tors. The amount and size of tile to
be used and the depth at which they
are to be laid can be determined only
by the person planning the system,
1t may be said, however, that in tilina

jority OF cases, be done for from S.. 90

The slender wheat grass has been
the best yielder for the three years,
and the timothy the poorest yielder.
For 1910, bronze grass yields consider
ably the better. These plats have not
been manured or disced.
Grass With Nurse Crop.
In the cooperative plats the bronze
grass is seeded with wheat as a nurse
crop, the wheat being cut for seed.
Reasonable stands of the bronze grass
have been secured each year by this
method, but it is noticed that the
nurse crop cuts down the first hay
crop. The advantage of securing a
stand of grass, without the loss of one
season, is SO great that this point can
be overlooked. A decided advantage
in securing the catch with a nurse
crop is the small number Of weeds.
When the grass is sown alone, the
Russian thistle comes in abundance
and causes much bother and injury.
Two plats of bronze grass seeded in
1909, with wheat as a nurse crop,
gave an average yield of 1880 pounds
of cured hay per acre in 1910. Tim
othy sown without nurse crop in
1909, on good soil, gave a yield of
1857 pounds of cured hay per acre in
1910.

for many years prominent in the Re-
publican organization in Utah, last
night at his summer home in Provo

tics and will take no part in the third

Colonel Loose, with members of his
family, is passing a few weeks at his
Spring Dell cottage, which is about
ten miles up Provo canyon. He de-
clined to explain to a reporter the rea-
sons which prompted him to give up
his political leadership. He said
II will take no part in the third

u. P. BUREAU HAS
MANY INQUIRIES
PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN HAS AL
READY ACCOM- LIsHED
GREAT RESULTS ACCORD.
ING TO Quincy.

That the results of the publicity
work that has been carried on by the
Upper Peninsula Development bureau
are now beginning TO appear was the
statement OF Manager Quinby, who
was in Marquette recently making
some of the preliminary arrangements
Tor the annual meeting that will be
held there February 6. Many inquir-
les about lands are being received at
the general managers office. They are
responded TO by mailing to the persons
making them copies of the publication
OF the bureau, a sixty page booklet,
handsomely illustrated with typical
upper peninsula farming views, and
containing the names of all the land
companies that are subscribers to the
bureau. With the help of the maps
showing the soil conditions and the
railroads the persons seeking informa /.
ton can determine what part of the
upper peninsula they want to learn
about, and address their answers to the
land companies accordingly.
The bureaus booklet was published
IN November. i'm time for the land
show, and it is proving a great con-
venience for the officers, as well as a
valuable means of disseminating infor-
nation about the upper peninsula. So
far the publicity work of the bureau
has been largely confined to the circu-
lation of this booklet and the upper
peninsula exhibit at the Chicago land
show. Little money has been spent on
advertising, but a small amount of
space used in one of the Chicago
newspapers brought responses from
nineteen states. and from the Cana
dian provinces. Mr.. Qulnby believes
that many inquiries sent To the land
companies direct are due In the first
Instance to the advertising campaign
of the bureau.
we have succeeded i'm putting the
upper peninsula more prominently on
the map than II has ever been before. %
Mr. Quinby said. People who had but
a hazy idea where IL was now know
that IL offers cheap good lands within
accessible distances of markets CON
tanning millions of people. Our work,
persisted in. cannot fail 10 give excel
lent results"
Mr. Quinby expects a representative
attendance of the members of the bu-
reau at the meeting Feb. 6. He says
there Is much interest in the meeting,
and he believes that all the counties OF
the upper peninsula will be represent
ed. The reports of the officers will fur
nish an excellent idea of what has
been accomplished the. past wear and,
what 1t has cost. There will be an cx-
hibitlon of the slantern slides prepared
for the purpose of advertising the up
per peninsula. and Mr.. Quinby says
that he hopes to have President McRae,
of the Detroit board OF commerce, in
attendance To discuss the need of an
agricultural commissioner for Michi-
gan.
