the streets that he had just gathered
more than 100 pounds under one tree.
He gets 25 cents a pound for them.
Another farmer who has sold several
hundred pounds already has something g
more than 1000 pounds to gather yet.
These facts have induced many to plant
pecan trees on their land.

The best way to select seed
corn is to 60 down each row pick
ing out the ears from the stalks
that are unusually vigorous and
show the desired characteristics.
Put these ears in baskets at the
side of the field, then husk, and
discard those that are not up to
the standard. Only ears OF the
best form should be retained for
seed purposes since a small
amount we'll cared for is worth
more than a large amount less
thoroughly cured. The corn
should not be picked so early that
it is immature since its vitality
is thereby injured. A slight frost
will not injure the seed corn if it
is we'll ripened and it is better to
risk a frost than to pick the ears
too early. Corn should be placed
upon racks so that it will cure out
rapidly before cold weather be-
gins and artificial heat should be
used if necessary. Do not lay
the corn in the sunlight, as the
sunshine Injuries the vitality OF
the seed. Corn should be stored
in a dry room where it will not
absorb moisture during damp
weather. A little care given to
selection and testing will mean
an increase of several bushels per
acre in the yield of the crop.

POLICE USELESS
Mrs. J. B. Gardner Declares
They Did Not Try to Guard
SuffragetteS.

The Washington police are the most
inefficient I ever have SEEN" said Mrs
]. B. Gardner, So Josephine street, In
man Park, yesterday. Mrs. Gardner
who is suffrag ist, was present at the
suffrage parade in Washington, though
taking no part in it.
Il had a seat on a stand on Pennsyl-
vania avenue, with a full view of three
blocks" she said. An hour before the
time for the suffragists to pass, the
street was packed and jammed, and the
policemen apparently made no effort
to clear it, When the women appeared
at last they were swamped by the
crowd, and had not a troup of cavalry
from Fort Myers cleared part of the
way, il would have been worse.
"As it was, the crowd closed in be-
hind them, and they were swamped
again. There We're fully 300 policemen
in that stretch, but they made no eff
fort that saw to help the suffragists.
Instead, many Of them laughed. Though
was not near enough to hear, i'm
agine many jeered.
Il saw Miss Inez Milholland, of New
York, impersonating Joan of Arc, al
most thrown from a rearing horse,
while policemen stood by and offered
no aid.
But the contrast was more startling
the next day when the inaugural pa
rade took place. There was no riot
then, and the street was clear for
blocks and blocks. If the police force
could hace cleared the way for one
parade, why couldn't they for the
other?
Frankly, they were the most ineffi-
cient specimens of manhood that l ever
saw
