A PRACTICAL OBSERVATION.

A group Of town lads with whom the
writer is acquainted who are taking
the agricultural course which was this
fall added to their high school course
have been busy at intervals during the
past three weeks selecting and study
ing seed corn. In selecting it In the
field they have found as result of
their own observation that the ears
which are sufficiently advanced to pick
are borne at from six to ten. inches
lower on the stalk than the average
height of all the ears of the field.
South Of latitude 41.3O this matter Of
early maturity Is not so vital for the
growing season is usually from l25 to
100 days long, and large ears have time
to mature, but in territory where the
season Is lis days or less the selection
Of early maturing corn is of great i'm
portance. II the agricultural course
referred to does nothing more than
bring this fact plainly to these boys
and some Of the farmers in the locality
In which they live it will have been
worth all it cost.

A GOOD RATION.

Probably no experiment station In
the country has made more careful
investigation along the line Of scien-
tific poultry raising than that of the
state of Maine; hence the ration for
laying hens recommended by the sta

Dry mash is kept before the hens all
the time, and this consists of mix
ture Of 200 pounds Of bran and 100
pounds each Of cornmeal. shorts, lin
