Charles y. Hilles, chairman OF the Re-

MIR. Roosevelt's trip through the West
must have proved a great disappointment

SAFEGUARDING SEED CORN

written by Martin Nelson OF
the Arkansas Agricultural Expert
ment Station.)
We have reached the season OF
the year when the preservation OF
seed corn is at a critical stage. The
most important factor at this date
is thorough drying of the corn. II
your seed is not already gathered 1t
should be done at once and proper
ly stored for drying, AT this time
of year when the corn is wet by
rains it is slow to dry out. Vitality
of the seed is in danger. Ii takes
no extreme condition to injure seed
to some extent. No chances should
be taken with weather conditions,
1t takes e;rly gathering to make
prime seed.
Avoid mistakes in the process OF
Gathering. Injury often results from
seed corn being left in bags or box
es for a few days before being hung
or placed on racks. In case ram
has wet the corn even slightly at
gathering time, extra care is requlr'
sd to get the corn dried out quickly
Mould will start badly in twenty
four hours and never fails to do III
Jury. From what has been said II
is apparent that seed corn should be
Gathered early and taken directly tc
the drying rack.
AS general precaution do not
place seed corn over any Other
stored crop such as hay, grain OF
potatoes The room should be wei
ventilated, with a good roof and G
dry interior Ventilate well on
clear days and close up in very hot
weather. When seed is we'll dried
out it is practically secure, Cold
weather will not mjure dry corn
Therefore, if seed is well dried be-
fore cold weather it may safely re-
main on the drying racks until re-
moved for planting.

CULTIVATION or PEACH TREE
Should Be Kept Thrifty and Healthy
and Care Used to Conserve All
Moisture Possible.

It is very essential to take the very
best possible care Of the young trees.
They should be kept thrifty and
healthy, and all necessary care given
them to conserve the moisture and
plant food in the soil.
Early in the spring, as soon as the
soil will permit, it should be stirred
6 to inches deep; thus, if the trees
have been planted as deeply as they
should, blowing this depth will cause
them to produce a deep root system
which will not be Injured as quickly
by freezing or drought. After this
blowing the fertilizer should be ap-
piled and worked with disk harrow
or cultivatOr.
Frequent civilizations should be
given with the cultivator or disk har-
row, running deep enough to form a
good soil mulch, and prevent subse-
quent baking or crusting Of the sur
face and prevent loss Of soil moisture
by evaporation. Thorough culture
kills all the weeds, which are a con-
slant drain on the soil moisture and
plant food and also assists in de-
composing and Hberating any plant
food which may have been turned I'M
der.

Baking Economy.

BY the use of perfect baking powder
the housewife can derive as much econ
omy as from any other article used in
baking and cooking. In selecting bak-
ing powder, therefore, care should be eX-
ercised to purchase one that retains its
original strength and always remains the
same, thus making the food sweet and
wholesome and producing sufficient leav-
ening gas to make the baking light.
Very little of this leavening gas is pro-
duced by the cheap baking powders, maxi
ing 1t necessary to use double the guam
tity ordinarily required to secure good re-
suits.
You cannot experiment every time you
make a cake or biscuits, or test the
strength of your baking powder to find
out how much of it you should use: yet
with most baking powders you should do
this, for they are put together so care
lessly they are never uniform, the quality
and strength varying with each can pur-
chased.
Calumet Baking Powder is made of
chemically pure ingredients of tested
strength. Experienced chemists put il up.
remain always the same. Sealed in air.
tight cans Calumet Baking Powder does
not alter in strength and is not affected
by atmospheric changes.
In using Calumet you are bound to have
uniform bread, cake or biscuits, as Calu-
met does not contain any. cheap, useless
or adulterating ingredients so commonly
used to increase the weight Further, 1t
produces pure, wholesome food and is a
baking powder of rare merit; therefore Is
recommended by leading physicians and
chemists. 1t complies with all the pure
food laws. both STATE and NATIONAL.
The goods are moderate in price, and any
lady purchasing Calumet from her gro
GER if not satisfied with it can return 1T
and have her money refunded.
