order as the kernels from them are
placed in the box. Either tag them or
not as you please, but ordinarily it
will not be necessary to do So
Place the box near the stove c.T far
nearly between 20 and so degrees F.
as you can; II degrees is about the
best temperature Generally one
moistening of the cloth is sufficient,
but if during the test it becomes too
dry, sprinkle water over it again The
advantage in using a cloth lies in the
fact that you cannot very easily get
the corn too wet for the best results.
1t will take from five to seven days
ears whose kernels do not show six
strong sprouts. If all six grains have
terminated, but their sprouts are
weak, throw out the ear from which
those kernels were taken, because if
conditions for termination and early
growth in the spring are unfavorable,
grains from such an ear may not
| sprout at all, or if they do, they will
produce a very weak growth of stalk
corn is small, you cannot of course,
afford to make such rigid selection
as this; but it is the only way to do
when the best results obtainable are
desired.
In the above article 1 have described
a simple, cheap, but none the less ef-
fective way of testing seed corn. The
box can be made by any farmer on
his farm. Nowadays, however, there
are many firms manufacturing seed
corn testers that are very good. No
farmer who raises 20 to 25 acres or
more of corn every year can afford to
be without one. Prices range from
SIS for the small to SO or $12 for the
large testers. They admit of artificial
heat being used to keep the corn at
a uniform temperature all the time !;
and when corn is being tested in the
winter or very early spring, this is a
very important thing and is a great
improvement over the box method, or
any other method which provides that
the corn must be kept near stove or
furnace. Artificial heat means uni.
} form temperature, stove or furnace
} heat, variable temperature. Some
} times the corn gets too hot, at other
times too cold. This obviously inter
} feres with the results of the test
Farmers do not hesitate to buy expen
! sive plows, cultivators, mowers, bind
ers, headers, etc. Why should they
: hesitate to buy good manufactured
seed corn tester that costs only 6
fraction of the amount often paid fol
any of the above machines, and thai
! would pay for itself many times ovel

fall Of the Roman empire. The colors
are identical with those shown in the
pictorial reproductions at museums,
and no doubt the figures are as faith
fully copied as are the colors. In
many instances even the jewel effects
are simulated In semi-precious stones
To say the effect is bizarre is putting
1t mildly-it is little less than bar
barous; but then that Is what the av-
erage society woman fanctes, and the
creators of fashions are wise.
Among the new blouses for spring,
crepe de chine composes the majority
of the better models. Since the fabric
has had long rest from this particu-
lar use. there is no doubt 1t will enjoy
an exceptional season or seasons; for
crepe de chine is material that is
washable, though few women appre-
ciate this fact. The appealing fea-
ture is that 1t requires no ironing. and

The Importance OF testing seed corn
necessary for me to say anything i'll
favor Of it in thie short article All
thinking and observing farmers are
convinced of the practical value of
the work. Therefore, without any fur
Their Introduction, | shall enter at once
on the description of a simple and
cheap, but none the less effective, way
of testing seed corn.
Out of boards picked up around the
barn, or corn crib, make a box Is S1a
inches long and 1919 inches wide, in
side measure Get piece of canton
flannel about yard long. Since this
cloth comes q inches wide, there will
be enough TO admit Of one fold being
made and still allow for shrinkage,
as the box is 121a inches wide. With
a lead pencil, or piece of colored
chalk mark off squares 9 inches each
way on the cloth. Moisten the cloth
and place it in the box, one-half it's
length remaining outside. Now you
are ready to fill the box with corn.
For removing the kernels from the
ears, there is a certain scheme which
you should observe. 1t is as follows:
Pick up the ear in your left hand
and with a knife held in your right
take out kernel about an inch from
the butt; turn the ear a quarter way
around and take out one from the mid
die; turn ear one-quarter- way around
again, and take out one about an inch
from the tip. Now, holding the ea1
In the same position, take out ker
mel about one inch from the butt, and
turning ear quarter around each
time, take out one kernel each from
the middle and the tip. This scheme
gives six kernels from each ear, ant
all sides, both ends and the middle
are represented. Many farmers ant
seed corn men test only three or foul
kernels from each ear. The most re
liable test, however, is got by the us'
Of six kernels per ear.
You will notice that the germ sid,
of the kernel is always toward th
tip of the ear. In removing the ker
nels never insert the knife blade il
front of the kernel, that is, on tn
germ side, but either behind or at th
side, so as to avoid mutilating tn
germ.
Place the kernels removed from tn
ears as directed above, in their re
spective squares and fold the clot
over the corn. If the cloth has be
come too dry, sprinkle a little waite
over it. Over the box put piece c
glass or oil cloth to prevent evapors
ton of moisture.
Number the ears to correspond wit
the squares on which their respectiv
kernels are placed, or lay them on th
floor, a table, or a shelf in the sam
