Behind The soans..

'The people who had the coveted
privilege of the stage in the days of
our parents used to tell about the
chorus women killing time between
calls with knitting and sewing. They
would open their eyes wide if they
could get a peep behind the scenes in
one Of the great vaudeville houses Of
London today" says a letter from that
city. where the managers have pro
vided for the spare time of the enter
tainers. There are tea rooms for the
women. where comfortable furniture
and rugs take the places Of the rick
ETY. chairs and bare floors of long ago
For the men there are club rooms
where between turns one may see
artists in all the various branches Of
the profession at billiards. pool. bridge
OF chess. A trained nurse and a ply
sician are always within call, and the
management provides school. where
the stage children are educated while
mamma dances and sings and papa
does his share toward the entertain

BOYS CORN CLUB.

Fifty-nine Benton County boys
names went the to Department of
Agriculture at Washington this
week aud that many boys should
soon be learning how to make more
aud better corn. Don't get too iM-
patient If your literature does not
come at once; there are thousands
OF other boys who must have litera-
ture, aud some may have to wait q
little while.
While we are waiting let's do a
few things that We know how to do
as well as anyone else.
First, the acre must be selected
and measured. Try to get All acre
free from shade; one that is not too
low and wet nor yet on dry hill
top;. one that is reasonably free
from stumps and other obstrnctious
that would hinder deep blowing.
The kind Of sol does not matter.
whether sandy, clayey rockey, or
otherwise, nor whether in river bot
tom, creek bottom, or rolling land.
We want to improve it whatever
kind it may be.
After the place for the acre has
been selected the next thing is TO
measure off just Que acre-no more,
no less--and let's all do this our
selv-s-us boys, I mean. OF course,
We want our fathers to assist lit
tie, tell us how long and how wide
the plot of ground must be to con-
tain one acre, aud s-e that we make
no mistake. And let's not "step"
1t oH either; get tape, a string OF
q pole and do the work accurately.
Que acre contains 100 square rods,
or 484O square yards, or 43560
square feet: a plot of ground 80
yards long aud COS yards wide con-
tains one acre. Find some other
dimensions. The acres need not
all be the same shape.
After the acre is selected and
measured we can "clean it up"
ready for the plow in spring, and
might soon begin to haul manure
and scatter on the ground. though
this must not be done too early If
We do not wish to waste any. as the
air aud rain will carry of some
elements that our corn should have.
The point is, get everything ready
to begin plowing as soon as the
ground is in good condition.
Select your seed corn now. This
should have been done while the
corn was growing in the field, if we
had raised corn last year. Get the
very best variety obtainable in
your neighborhood, or in the coun-
ty, or you may order seed corn,
though Professor Early says a
good local corn That has been ac-
is surest for the first year.
Here are some varieties that have
won prizes in West Tennessee, if
you want to order corn from n seed
house or can procure it elsewhere:
Huffman. Boone County White,
Hickory King, Batt's Prolific.
"PIow deep, while sluggsrds
sleep aud you will have corn to sell
and to keep" Ross Balm, Rubin
Bai,. aud William Farrar are new
names added to the list this week.
We shall close the list March l af-
ter which date no one can joiu the
1912 Corn Club.
Very truly,
N. b. HARDIN.
