BY THIS SIGN

The address was by Richard Lloyd
Jones, editor of the Madison Journal.
In introducing the speaker, Rev. l.
A. Goddard, the pastor of the church,
spoke of hearing the address recently
when given before the Fortnightly
Literary club of this city. Mr.. God
dard said that it was an address that
should be heard by everyone in Bara-
boo and was glad to announce that
Mr.. Jones was pleased to come 10 give
the excellent message again.
Mr.. Jones is one of the vice presidents
of the Wisconsin branch of the peace
movement and is doing what he can
to stop the great waste of wealth in
maintaining an army and navy. The
world is spending something like two
billions of dollars annually in war and
preparations for war. With all the
money that is wasted roads could be
built, institutions of learning main
tanned, vast arid lands reclaimed and
much other good in the world done.l

before this paper gave liberal extract
from his address and for that reason it

When the Fodder S
In The Shock
Impressions of Few Days Among the Rushing BLADES
and Red Ears.
Ey p. I'll. Crossman.

ago there was young lady in Fair
| field who was an expert at this WORE
and followed it all the fall for several
years. She fairly made play of IL and
without special effort could keep an
ear of corn flying in the air all the
while. Being a woman, she did not
have to bind the stalks and so was
not allowed to vote in Wisconsin. The
secret of husking corn rapidly lies In
letting 60 of one ear and getting hold
of another with the utmost dispatch.
This secret is of great value to the
man who owns the corn and it is
sometimes so to the hired man.
IF a person is husking at so much
a basket, including board, then
the less he husks the more be makes.
II he boards himself it is different.
If be gets three cents basket and
board, and his board is worth fifty
cents per day, and he husks fifty
baskets per day, he is getting at the
rate of four cents per basket. 1t he
husks only twenty-five baskets per
day, he is getting at the rate of five
cents per basket. Leaving out the
tragedies and comedies incidental to
the presence of the red ear and the
weaker sex, man may meet up with
various interesting experiences In the
corn husking season.
Once this authority was working in
a corn field where there was certain
excellent and industrious woman who
was good at corn husking, but short
on arithmetic. She was husking on
shares and said that she had the
choice of husking at five cents
shock or at six cents a bushel and
wanted to know which she had better
do. He told her that she had better
take it by the shock as a fi|td was
better than sixth in case of that
kind. "But," she protested, "there
amt bushel in shock" He i'm.
mediately collapsed like "Brown of
Caleveras" when a chunk of old red
sandstone took him in the abdomen
and the subsequent proceedings inter
ested him no more.
The tendertoot will do we'll to have
the hands and wrists we'll covered
with raw linseed oil while husking.
This helps the ear TO slip from the
hand and tends to the conservation of
the cutic,e. The pay for corn husking
always includes the fresh outdoor air.
Sometimes it is not sufficiently heated,
and comes atsuch a velocity that much
of it gets by before you can snuff it up.

citizen of this vicinage went to the
rural districts in puraint OF pleasure, a
change of air and any cold cash which
might accrue.
The objective point was certain
cornfield where it was hoped that a
few days experience might give the
farmers some light on the science and
art of husking corn.
1t was high time to be in the field
for the frost was on the pumpkin and
the corn was in the shock. AS
to the growing of corn (Which
in the beginning, may have
preceded the husking.) Charles
Whitman is cited here as somewhat Of
an authority. tits interesting to visit
him at his "Narrows Farm" and see
what he has done in the way of re-
claiming low land by thing. Do not
be disturbed if he makes fun of your
head-gear, even though it be excess
sively ventilated.
His own ancient crown, associated
with his interests along the lower
narrows of the winding and willow
fringed waters of the beautiful Bara-
boo river, has, doubtless, taken on a
value, to him, beyond that of material
things. There is a time when the
value of an old hat becomes wholly
matter of sentiment and canrot be
named in dollars and cents.
After passing two or three days in a
corn field this authority doesn't mind
the farmers present of his
instead of having it copy
righted so as to swell his bank &C
count. He is willing to do this for
posterity, though he says that pos
terity never did anything for him. The
corn plant is the most graceful of all
the annual food-producing things
which the farmer coaxes out of the
soil. Many fine poetical lines have
been devoted to it. Bobby Burns
knew now to make farming and
poetry go hand in hand. Now, the
busy days are given over to specialists.
1t is poetry for the poet, and work
