Farm Experts Valuable

In another column on this page is communi-
cation from subscriber who takes issue with
the modern tendency to pay specialists to take
the time cannot afford, to study and solve our
problems for In particular, objection is
raised to this county's engaging farm expert
whose services shall be at the disposal of all our
farmers. The main ground for the objection is
that this is useless expenditure of money as
Wayne county farmers know all there is to know
about farming.
!, The Palladium, consistent with its firmly i'm
planted belief in the value of scientific farming
naturally feels that just grounds exist for diff
ferng with the conclusions of this communi-
cation.
For example, all farmers once selected their
seed corn by pure guess work. They hefted the
ear, sliced into the heart of a kernel with a
knife and if the signs were propitous, why, there
was their seed corn. Whether poor crop result
ed from this method of seed selection or from
other causes the farmers had no sure way of
proving.
Professor Holden of Iowa, a farm scientist,
one day took six kernels running spirally the
cob from each of number of ears of corn. Each
set of six kernels was placed on damp sand in a
separate compartment in shallow box In four
or five days termination complete. Some
sets of six were found to be all terminating
strongly; some were half strong and half weak
some all weak and some not terminating at all.
Then he planted the from all the by
plots according to their classification in the
terminating test. The corn from the ears that
had terminated strongly in the test all came
up and made large and profitable crop. That
from the half strong and half weak made only a
fair crop in comparison to the former. The all
weak made a pitiful crop and the ears that did
not terminate in the test had better have been
thrown to the crows for they made no crop.
Today many though by no means nearly all
farmers only plant that has graded one
hundred per cent. in the termination test. Agri-
cultural reports show that these men are uni
formly successful in raising bigger yields than
when they practiced the old method of seed Sc
lection. 1t has been conservatively estimated
that if all corn farmers would apply Professor
Holden's termination test, with no more labor or
expense, the corn crop of the country would be
increased twenty per cent.
Wayne county's farmers share in such a
gain would pay the expenses of number of farm
experts. And we only need one to show us count
less other short cuts to easier and more profita-
BILE farming.

THE RAJAH'S PRIDE
BY Will n. OgiIvie

He who ruled for the English king
Summoned the chiefs to his counseling
Princes and governors met at his call,
East with the west, in the councilhall.
Never was ranged in a before
Such wealth of gems the rajahs wore;
The smallest stone in the simplest ring
Was the ransom price of a captured king.
A prince there was of petty state,
Least of them all where all great,
Lacking it seemed, in the pride assigned
BY the gracious gods to the lords of Hind.
A ruby CHANGED from his chain to fall
On the paven floor of the council-hall.
Forgetting his eastern dignity,
The chief with his henchman bent the knee,
And searched for the jewel with nervous dread,
While smile on the English faces spread.
Beside him, impressive, rajah Stood
His rubies of Burmah red like blood
His emeralds flashing seagreen fire
His pearls SURPRISING queens desire;
Yet his rarest jewels less brightly burned
Than the flame in his eyes when fierce, he turned
And noted the deed of the natve-born
And the English lips that curled in scorn
With sudden movement light girls
He snapt a string of his priceless pearls;
Like hail they scattered; his servants
Swift to his aid, but his eyes flashed flame
mol" The word fell like blade on the air
what is found in the dust is the sweepers share.

Madison Ave. Baptist Fails to

The fate Of the Madison Avenue Baptist

without an endowment. Some time ago
an offer was made of a sum said to eX-
coed 10000 on condition that $4,000
should be raised by November 9. Wednes-
day the total pledged was only $4,000
The pastor, the Rev. DR.. Eaton, said yes
terday:
TT is idle TO talk about downtown Man
haitian districts being given over TO bust
ness and the people moving away. There
are more people i'm the vicinity Of this
church now than when 1t was first built
and they are just as willing to worship
God as were the founders Of this church.
People do go to church services as they
used TO do.
I'VE are having larger congregations
than years ago. AS for the educational
work on week nights the years of the
churchs early history are not to be COM
pared More people now use the plant in
a single twenty-four hours than used TO
