Looking forward to winter we must
find some method Of obtaining green
food for our stock. The putting aside
Of cabbage and mangolds has been in
vogue for quite some time. But cab
bage and mangolds have; their draw
backs in that it is not Easy to keep
them fresh. Therefore, most poultry
men are now turning to sprouted oats.
While the sprouting of oats is not an
easy matter. requiring constant atten-
ton. particularly to keep it free from
mould. it is perhaps one of the best
methods today Of obtaining succulent
food for chickens in winter time.
To sprout oats light. heat and mois-
ture are required. Many small poul-
trymen obtain heat by placing the
tray containing the seed in a well
lighted and we'll heated cellar. Some
times the heat is obtained by placing
the tray IN top of the asbestos-cover-
ed furnace. OF by building an air-tight
closet from the cellar beams and
around the hot water OF steam pipes.
The government men made unsatis-
factory attempts to sprout oats in
1908. but they overcame the difficulty
by making a closet and getting the
heat from a hot water pipe used in
connection with the hot water system
of the poultry plant. DR.. Raymond
Pearl and DR.. Frank M. Surface of
the Maine station gives the following
description of their efforts:
There is in connection with the
station q hot water heating system,
which has a three-inch out-go pipe.

Own Seed Corn.

VERY PROMISING
-
Better Farming Association
Undertakes the Campaign
Among Agriculturists.

= J. G. .Hoke, the better farming .ex--
been spending the greater part OF the
week interesting the farmers in the
selection Of home grown iced for next
years corn crop. The association has
undertaken a campaign to get farm
ers of the state to develop, an early
variety of corn and to select home
grown seed.
AS a result of his Investigations
and experiments Mr.. Hoke declares
that the home-selected seed corr in
variably is the better and brings forth
earlier results.
In citing an example, he referred
TO this years corn crop grown by r.
p. Speilman who lives near Lari-
more. Mr.. Speilman has an excellent
Held Of triumph dent. Four years
was September Is before h. could
secure a r that were glazed. The
succeeding years he planted his home
selected seed, and each year he Sc
cured earlier results until this year
he was able to gather the ears az
early as August Is.
Secure Seed Early.
The corn crop in North Dakota
this year is very promising" said
Mr.. Hoke. Many fields are almost
ripe at the present time and in some
sections corn Is sufficiently matured
to maxi seed IL carefully selected and
Ecured. The importance Of securing
seed corn during the early part Of
this month cannot be over-estimated.
1t Is perhaps the most important part
OF h production of next years crop.
Seed corn should be selected in the
field from ears that are we'll placed
on the stalk and that are mature.
After the seed is selected 1t should
be hung up in an airy, we'll ventilat-
ed place where the moisture will be
drawn of from the ear as rapidly as
dried 1t can be finally stored in a
room where the temperature is fairly
even throughout the season.
Many farmers do not realize that
III necessary corn can be selected be
fore it is thoroughly nhatured In the
Held and will make good seed. Such
corn must be very carefully handled.
otherwise 1t will spoil or mold. It
Is not advisable to select corn that Is
not fully mature unless it is necessary
to secure seed for mex year. We
believe. however, that under condi-
ttons such as prevail in the state it
is advisable to make every attempt to
select all Of the seed corn possible.
Show Value Of Home Seed.
The plots and fields this year
have shown Enthusiastically the value
Of home grown and selected seed. It
is observed that fields grown from
home selected seed are from ten days
to. two weeks earlier than those grown
from seed brought in from other sec
tons. This in itself is. enough to JUS
tify' q considerable expenditure Of
time in the selection Of seed corn.
The seed corn crop should be an inn
portant one from an economic stand
point in the state. From 10000 to
$4,000 bushels will be required to
seed the acreage Of corr that will be
grown in the state next year. This
corn will all have a value Of from
a total valuation closely Approximate
ing the value of the fax seed used
in producing this years flax CROP"

ond trial had dragged on for many
weeks. one Of the Jurors. evidently
crazed by his long confinement, made
his escape from the jury room. and
thus the second attempt to convict
Hyde came to a fruitless end. Hyde
was tried again last February. Some
Of tho best legal talent in Missouri
was employed on the case: The jury
disagreed :
The. state will try to prove that
Hyde murdered Swope and that his
motive for so doing arose from Q be-
lief that Swope vas about to change
a will in which Mrs. Hyde wat given
a large share Of the ewope wealth.

There were seventeen marriage IL
