Corn for Chicks.

While corn is not regarded rs the
best thing on which to start chicks,
hundreds Of strong. thrifty chicks have
made an excellent start on dampened
corn meal We must remember,
though. that the people who have not
used much except corn for feeding
chicks usually do not attempt to start
them at all until the season when
grass and hies and worms are avail
able for the hunting. and chicks bal.
ance their own ration with wha, they
pick up. The same method OF feeding
little chicks that are hatched ye~y
early and kept indoors for weeks IL
apt to prove disastrous.

CHECK ROW CORN
PLANTER ESSENTIAL
If Seed Is Substantially Same
Size Machine Will Drop Same
Number of Kernels.
(By WALTER B. LEUTZ.)

On all farms where the fields are of
sufficient size the check row corn
planter is almost a necessity. IL the
seed is substantially of the same size
and shape the machine will drop pre-
cisely the same number of kernels to
the HILL II on the other hand, the
grain from the tips and butts of the
ears is included the number of kernels
in the hill will vary considerable.
The distance between the hills and
the number of plants to the hill will
vary more or less according to the va
riety that is planted and the climate
of the locality in which the field is
being planted.
Under ordinary. conditions / believe
in planting four kernels to the hill
and planting the hills about tire
feet six inches apart both ways. AS
a general rule nothing is gained by
planting the field until the cold spring
rains are over. None but good seed
that possesses a strong terminating
power should be planted

Then, how did you go up one hill

In the auto. on perfectly lovely

you would have to fly"
What you mean, Sis dear. is that
you went down one hill and up an
other-not up one hill and down an
other"
Don't act silly! How could we get
to the top of hill to go down hill
if We didn't go up first? We certainly
went up one hill and down another.

You certainly did not-you went
down one hill and up another. just as
| am telling you. You may have gone
up one hill and down that same hill;
and then you went up another hill and
down that same hill. You see, Sis
dear, before you could go up one hill
and down another hill altogether you
would have to have an airship to fly
from the top of this first hill to the
top of that other hill. and you admit
that"
