THE HIGH TIDE OF EASTER.

Shadow and sunlight, ebb and
food, mourning and rejoicing
are not more opposite than the
subdued and sorrowful mood be-
fitting Lent. and the triumphant
gladness of Easter. AS Good
Friday in the solemn passing,
recalls to as the day when the
darkness of the cross made the
sun ashamed to shine, so Easter
Sunday, with supreme radi-
ance, indicates the hour that is
the coronation of humanity.
Jew and Roman combined in the
crueifxion of Him who came to
save but they could have had no
power against Him and He not
willingly offered himself to atone
for the sins of the world. Il
am the good shepherd, He said.
Il lay down My life for the
sheep. / have power to lay it
down and l have power to take
it again" No mere man could
have made that assertion.
Well might the sun in darkness
hide
And shut His glories in,
When God, the mighty maker died
For man, the creatures sin,
Christ died and we must die.
There Is an hour in the unseen
future known to God but un-
known 10 us, when our friends
and kindred will say of us, one
by one. ''He is gone" "She is
not here. " But Christ arose
again from the dead, and so
shall we. We shall live again.
Not in this poor world of change
and loss, but in a far more beau
tiful one, into which death can
not enter.
Because Christ lives, we shall
live. This is the joy Of Easter,
and this is why when Lent is
over and winter is past and
spring has returned. Christian
life reaches its highest water
mark on the shores of time in an
exultant allelma that reverber-
ates around the globe.

cheap and reliable. A shallow
square box containing sand or
soil served the purpose. It is
only necessary to furnish the
seed warmth and moisture to
get it to germinate. It requires
but a short time!to test enough
seed to plant 40 acres and as
every bad ear has a minus value
of 81. each one should be tested.
Some men, however, select 100
ears at random from the selected
seed and test them the per cent
of termination obtained gives a
fair idea of all the corn.
Seed corn and crib or market
corn are distinctly different.
The latter has a commercial va
lue while the former is purely a
breeding proposition. The wea-
ther. insects and miscellaneous
factors do sometimes damage
stands Of corn. but not to the
extent they are credited with.
Too often the man himself is
responsible for poor results but
seldom win he acknowledge it.
Right now is a good time to
test corn and little time spent
now will save a good many long
hot days of toll next summer.

A "sIow Construction Idea.

Jefferson City nave decided that
it is unnecessary to seI5 the capi-
tol building bonds. Their theory
is that the money derived from
the special tax authorized for a
sinking and interest fund with
which to pay the bonds win put
into the treasury annually as
much money as may be needed
each year to pay for the materi-
ais and construction OF the capi-
tol, and that the money can be
applied to building purposes as
1t may be needed, thus saving
to the State the interest the
bonds would bear it sold AS
the income from the special tax
will not exceed $3.50 600 q year

TESTING SEED.

A good business man would
not invest capital in an inter-
prise until he had Investigated
it and found out how reliable it
was; but corn selected from the
crib and planted is a proposition
that do man can be sure of. If
a go per cent stand is obtained

stands than are commonly sup
posed) two-fifths of our land re-
turn nothing at all. In fifty acre
corn field, 20 acres of land would
have been made poorer and have
produced nothing to pay rent,
interest, and taxes; in addition
the time of one man and team
would have been wasted. The
only saving would be in harvest
ing the crop. 1t wouldn't take
so long to gather it. If each ear
used for seed is tested before
planting. one may be certain
that his,corn will grow if it gets
a chance. There are many de-
vices used for testing seed but

Importance Of Seed Cord


Much has been written and
much said about corn, especially,
seed corn, but the subject is yet
of great Importance. No drop
has been improved to the degree
that corn has, and no crop is
capable Of further improvement.
We have two main methods of
crop Improvement; seed selection
and soil culture. They go well
together, without one the other
cannot be successful, however,
of the two. good seed returns a
larger profit on the amount of
time and labor invested. Is it
wise to carefully prepare fer
tile field and then sow inferior,
untested; scrub" seed? I'm
doubtedly it is not. Good seed
increases the yield from is to %
per cent; a fact that has been
demonstrated time and time
again.
Let US figure a minute: Nearly
everyone chacks corn, a good
practice. and as a rule we want
three stalks in a hill. A perfect
stand, each stalk with an ear
weighing less than 81 o.. Ca
small earl means a yield of 80
bushels per acre. Most corn
growers would call that good.
If we increase the av. weight
to IL OF. the yield would be rais-
ed to lis bu. per acre. A IL oz.
ear is not exceptionally large
and 9 oz. ear is small. Any
stalk of corn, if it does any
good at all should produce an
ear like that. One reason that
our yields are low is because
a large per cent Of the grains we
plant absolutely fail to grow; and
some of these that do are barren.
Prof. Holden described barren
stalks as those that fool around
all summer doin' nothin'3 the
description fits the case.
1t does not require any expen-
sive apparatus or particular
skill to test seed corn. Good
seed corn should be selected from
the stalk in the fall, but there is
little stalk selected seed on hand. |
Why? Certainly not because
we did not know how to select
it. but because we did not take
the time to do it. We failed to
realize it's cash value. Good
seed can increase the yield l0I
bu, per acre. One bushel will
plant 8 acres and it's value
would be represented by the
increase $50 bu.) at present
prices worth $4,000. Did it ever
occur to you that one bushel of
corn might easily be worth $40.
more than another bushel?
What do we expect of corn we
plant? Certainly we expect it
to grow, but that is not all; we
also expect it to yield. The
yield per acre is the factor that
either causes the operation to be
a success or a failure.
