DO NOT SHELL YOUR SEED CORN
Test it Ear by Ear

Seed corn of this state and of the
corn belt in general, is in a most Sc
rious condition, according to Prof. c.
p Norgord of the Wisconsin College
Of Agriculture. One hundred and
forty-nine samples that have been
collected from seven counties for test,
from all parts of the state, have
shown an average termination OF
only 81 per cent. If this corn is
planted" without testing, a half crop
will result This will be especially
serious next fall, as the same situa-

ton prevails over the entire corn
belt One man in southwestern Wis
consin cured fifty bushels Of fine
looking corn in his seed corn room.
He shelled it and tested it this
spring Twenty-Five bushels of one
variety showed only II per cent live
kernels, while the other variety ger
minated 30 per cent. If he had
tested it ear by ear, he could now
shelled it before testing, it is prac-
tically a loss Next season will see
shortage of corn and high prices
which will compel stock growers to
glut the markets with immature stock.
We Of Wisconsin must not be caught.
The way of escape is clear. We must
test every ear of our seed corn and
discard every one that does not ger
inmate strongly. We must not shell
the corn before testing, because then
we cannot throw out the dead kernels.
One man can test several bushels in
a day and every one should do it for
corn will be valuable next year.
Remove a kernel from near the
butt, another from near the center,
and another from near the tip. Turn
the ear over, and repeat the opera
tfon. In this way you have repre-
sentatives from six different rows
and from different parts of the ear.
The simplest way to test seed corn
is to use what is known as the saw
dust germinator method Put about
two inches of sawdust that has been
boiled, in the bottom of dry goods
box. Pack this down thoroughly and
spread over. it piece of muslin that
has been marked into 81 inch
squares. There should be at least ten
rows of ten squares in row.
Each square is used for kernels from
one ear of corn. 1t is usually most
convenient to test 100 ears at time
When the squares are marked on
the muslin they should be numbered,
beginning at the upper left hand cor
ner. The ears should then be spread
upon the floor or upon the table and
numbered. Kernels from ear No. l
are to be put in square No. l and SO
on 1t is not necessary to attach a
number to earch ear. If the ears be
laid out in rows, ear No. l can be
marked and a nail driven into the
floor between each 10 ears. This viii
make it possible to determine the
numbers of the ears.
After the kernels have been placed
in the germinator, cover them care
fully with another piece OF muslin
that has been dampened. Over this
place a gunny sack with wet sawdust
in it. In six or seven days check up
the results and discard all ears

Further Improvement Shown, Al

FAVORABLE CROP REPORTS COME
Well as Number of More OBJ

NEW YORK, July 16.--Further improve
ment was noted In the sluggish move
ment of the stock market today. The i'm
pelling factors were additional favorable
crop reports and greater ease of money
on call and time. The latter condition
was directly traced to confidence due TO

1t Is probable, In the opinion Of competent
authorities, that any pronounced increase
commodations, might easily cause re-
vival OF last weeks higher quotations.
Practically all the standard shares as
well as number Of more obscure issues

DORIS STEVENS ADDRESSES
GOOD AUDIENCE At BOYD

Doris Stevens. who Is delivering suf-
frage talks during the exhibition Of spe-
cial films devoted to the Votes for Wo-
men" cause. spoke to large number Of
people last night at the Boyd. She made
q local application in answering the arsu-
ment that women do not use the fran
chise as is witnessed in school elections
Miss Stevens pointed to the water bond
election in Omaha, when only portion
of the registered male vote was out. there
being only one subject to interest them.
She declared with whole campaign
brimming with problems to solve, the
women would be just as much interested
numerically as the men. The speaker
oontended that in the states where suf-
frage is countenanced there are better
child labor laws than anywhere else In
the union.
The special films will be displayed four
times today.

SHEEP-There was another fairly large
run Of sheep and lambs here today, about
thirty-five loads being reported in. Bulk
Of supply consisted Of westerns, which
included shipments from Oregon, Idaho,
Wyoming and South Dakota. While a
good many lambs showed up in yester-
days receipts. comparatively few ap-
peared on the market this morning, most
OF the western stuff being wethers and
mixed loads of wethers and yearlings. A
few decks Of native or fed stock from the
corn belt were included in today's re-
ceipts. As on yesterday the general
quality was not especially attractive, al
though there were some good loads among
todays offerings.
Buyers were out fairly early in the
morning looking over the supply, but
with liberal receipts on hand did not
seem in any hurry to fill orders. AS has
been the case for several weeks back
there was a good demand for anything
showing quality, sheep and lambs Of the
common to medium order not being par
ticularly. sought after. A good part Of
the morning wore away without much
being done. the feeling, however, being
weak and lower.

CATTLE-Cattle receipts were fairly
liberal again Monday, making the total
for the two days 5,700 head being gain
of 1000 head over last week, but at the
same time showing a considerable falling
off as compared with two or three weeks
ago and with year ago.
Advices from eastern points were very
discouraging on the opening and buyers
generally started out bidding prices that
were quite little lower than yesterday.
In the end, however, they picked UP the
more desirable dry lot cattle at prices
that were fully steady with yesterday.
The medium grades, that is. light and
green cattle, were slow and lower all
day..
The market on cows and heifers was
very weak this morning, prices being on
all but the very best 109e0c lower, and
some kinds possibly 25c lower, than last
week.
Very little change took place in the
market for stock cattle and feeders. there
being a reasonably good demand for de-
