Napoleon and italy.

Napoleon was born In Ajacco, on the
island of Corsica, and was by breed
and instinct an Italian. He never was
except to the extent Of language and
politics, Frenchman. To his dying
day he was a dear lover of his native
land, and while life lasted he remained
true to the little island that gave him
to the world. 1t was while he was q
charity student in France that Napo-
leon got his first knowledge of the land
that was to assist him to his large and
lasting fame.-New York American.

Persian legend About Goats.

In Persia there is legend regard

goat, without fault of her own, excited
the prejudice of mankind until her life
was unbearable. The powers then
made it possible for her to find susten-
ance on inaccessible mountain tops
where man could not molest her, and
she was given the power to find by in
stinct the leaf of healing, so that she
would never become ILL., And after
centuries of isolation she was to return
and live again among the haunts OF
men, to be blessed animal and to
be indispensable to his needs, alone
having power to save him from many
troubIes.-Farm and Fireside.

ment of agriculture. He went over
a field and cut the young corn three
inches under ground. In a short time
the field was as green as ever and no
harm was done.
Frost may NOW a field bare, but
it can't kill five inches below the sur
face.
"This is my secret of maxi ing the
seasons longer. Planting dee per with
terminated seed enables me to plant
at least two weeks ahead of other
farmers. often plant early in April,
while my neighbor will not start un-
til May. The result is that M matter
if frost does comes or if the cQtworm
does work, have fine stand of corn
by the time the other fellow putting
in his seed; mine is more hardy and
is ready to take advantage of the
fine bright growing days that usually
come along about the middle Of May.
while the other fellows corn is be-
ginning the fight for life. -
BECKMAN DISPUTES THORP.
j. w. Beckman of Cokato. one of
the most prominent corn growers in
the state, is the most Outspok pn of the
antagonists of Mr.. Thorp's theories.
He is to lead delegation before the
state fair board in January to protest
against possible repetition Of an
award such as in the Wells case.
sit is ridiculous to consider this
Reeds Yellow Dent as a standard
corn in Minnesota, decared Mr..
Bsckman. ''lt has been tested and
found wanting. The fact that Mr..
Wells could produce fine crop on a
small patch proves nothing. might
get fine crop of figs or oranges in
Minnesota by special effort, tut that
would not convince anybody that or
anges and figs could be M de stand
ard commercial crop here.
But this view. which is shared by
many corn growers, does not check
the enthusiasm of Mr.. Throp and his
followers. who believe the others will
come around to their way of thinking
when they know more about the sup
posedly impossible varieties of corn.
Mr.. Thorp's opinion is considered
worthy by his followers because Of
the apparent eagerness of government
experts to cooperate with him. Re-
Gently the treasury department. sent
an agent to the Thorp farm to study
Mr.. Thorp' $ method Of water conserv.
alton.
! SAVES ALL THE RAINFALL.
/ ''Not drop of water that falls on
my land ever runs off, Mr. Thorp
said. Here is great thing for the
farmers Individually and for the whole
country. 1t is, estimated that there
flows to the sea about as much soil
strength each year as there is pro-
duced and put back into it by the
crops. In many places the waste was
much greater than the production, and
this means worn out farm or an inn
mense expense keeping it up. With
my system the soil is constantly en-
riching itself. There is absolutely
no waste.
"The treasury department was
J most interested in the value of this
system in preventing foods. If the
system were followed generally the
millions of dollars lost annually
through foods would be saved, as
we'll ss the hundred Of lives the high
waters take as annual toll. -

GROWING MISSOURI CORN
Dispute at State Fair Brings out
Interesting Facts.

Scientific theories locking to maxi
ing longer corn season in Minnesota,
with seed heretofore believed un-
suited to the Minnesota season were
expounded upon Saturday at the state
fair by Freeman Thorp, a fair ex-
bitor. whose l, 800 acre farm near
Brainerd is said to have been held as
nearly ideal by government experts.
Mr.. Thorp's declaration that by
terminating the seed before planting
and by planting deep, Minnesota's S
crop season woald be longer, and his
explanation of the methods by which
ne says this result may be achieved,
grew out of dispute at the state
fair over the award of corn prizes
when variety originally developed
in Missouri and generally believed
by Minnesota farmers to be unsuited
to the shorter season here was given
first place after two reversals of the
judges decision. All the more time

AWARD STIRS FARMERS.
When the state fair judges last
week gave first prize to S. B. Wells
of Pine county on his exhibit of
Reeds yellow dent corn. growers
protested that this corn should not be
considered, becuase it was not adapt
ed for general use in Minnesota and
that while it thrived in Missouri and
states to the south, the season IN Min
nesota was too short to mature it ex-
cept in isolated cases.
The judges reversed themselves but
a new set of judges reafirmed the first
award, after satisfying themselves
that Reeds Yellow Dent would thrive
in Minnesota. They were aided in
this decision by the experience of Mr..
Thorp who has successfully raised this
and other supposedly balky varieties
in the state for many years and who
is positive these varieties mean re-
volution in corn production that viii
put Minnesota to the front.
Two points are the keynote of Mr..
Thorp's success. he says, namely,
terminating the seed corn before
planting and planting the seed deep.
Mr.. Thorp is operating a 1.30C
acre experiment farm a few miles
north of Brainerd where he has &C.
complished things that are said tt
have set new pace for United States
government experts.

I've often heard old Granny say
He longest lives who runs away.
Reddy Fox didn't realize that he
was speaking aloud. He was trying to
make himself think that he wasn't a
coward and that in running away
from Old Mar Coyote he had done on
~ what every II of the little meadow
and forest people would have done in
his place. So without knowing 1t he
had spoken aloud.
But he who runs must leave behind
His self respect and peace of mind.
The voice came from right over
Reddy's head. but he didn't have to
look up to know who was there. 1t
was Sammy Jay, Of course. Sammy is
always on hand when he isn't wanted
and Reddy knew by the look in his
eyes that Sammy had see the meet

You better mind Your own affairs
