HOW TO WIN AT GRAIN SHOWS

Go in for the grain shows, is the
advice of Prof. Hume Of this city, to
South Dakota farmers. 1t is DR..
Hume's opinion that corn and grain
shows in this state will have a re-
markable influence upon the state by
calling attention to better methods of
growing grain, and also by bringing
farmers together in free competition
and by encouraging the Improvement
of rural social life"
Go into these shows to win; that's
the proper spirit. 1t is possible TO
select winning corn on a scientific
basis. First pick out from the total
amount of corn available the largest
number of fine appearing ears. Select
from this lot as nearly a perfect ear
as can be found. Hold this ear close
to each Of the others in the lot for
comparison, and then pick out all ears
which the comparison shows to be
similar. Then by elimination reserve
the ears having the greatest possible
uniformity and possessing the highest
possible quality. The usual sample
for show is ten ears. A perfect score
is one hudred points-but a perfect
ten-ear sample Of corn has not YET
been reported.
The following points count in scor
ing South Dakota corn with the per
centage in each instance: Uniform
ity of exhibit, 10; shape of ear, 10;
color Of grain and cob, 10; tip of ears
5; butts of ears, 5; length of ears, 5:
circumference of ears, 5; kernel
each for shape and uniformity; space
between rows, 8; space between ker
nels on cob, 5; seed and market con
dition, 20; proportion Of shelled corr
to ear, 10.
For the Southern district, dent corr
should run s to 10 inches long; for the
Central district, 7 to 9 inches long,
for the Northern district, 6 to s inche.
long. In scoring, the deficiency ant
excess in length in all ears not con
forming to the standard shall be add
ed together and for every inch thu,
obtained a cut of one-half point shall
be made on the total. Farmers ar,
cordially invited to write DR.. A. n
Hume OF Bookings If they want NOR,
detailed information.
Doubtless the most important grair
and corn show of the year will be tn,
annual state show to be held at Nit
chell, January 1918. DR.. Hume sug
gests that 1t will be worth anyone,
time to attend.

lied clover in bloom is no, good for
hogs. but when young II makes a

The growing pix requires protein

In purchasing n boar It IL we'll to

Neither rape nor clover alone will
do for growing. fattcning hogs. They
must have come grain twice a day

LOT OF CORRESPONDENTS MOST
HAZARDOUS DURING WAR TIMES

Washington. Nov. ia clearly
defined status for war correspondents
in the field Is the next topic which
VIII compel International Interest,
says Roderlck Clifford, It is the be-
lief OF many army and navy officials
that the time has come when the war
correspondent should receive official
Recognition al the hands of the pow
ors of the military world. The dis
Iturbance in the Balkans has brought
this matter strongly 10 the fore and
II Is suggested that The Hague trlb-
luHal may. al its next congress, de-
vote some attention to the question.
The preliminary plan advanced by
some OF the army and navy officers
here Is to establish the Institution of
war correspondence on a sounder bas-
! Is than heretofore. The theory is
advanced that the press should oper-
ate under Its own fiag. and should
be systematically organized for field
duty.
The underlying principles OF such
Organization would be somewhat SIM
liar TO that governing the Red Cross.
The belief Is expressed that the press
Representatives should occupy nou-
,fnl ground and should he consider
ed as noncombatants By opposing ar
niles. Their flag should be honorci
ms the Rcd Cross flag is. II Il even
suggested hat war correspondents
should infect some prescribed uni
form. so distinctive ia appearance as
to admit OF no confusion with the
field uniform Of soldiers Of any army.
At present the war correspondent
Occupies q position nearly. II not alb

spondents have been killed In battle
during recent years. In some cases by
n random shot but In others with de-
iiberntc intent. the correspondent be-
ing mistaken by his slayer FOR an
enemy.
War correspondents are oftcntlmcs

particularly In Mexico. Only Few
