had to be raised when Bryant and
John Med. Livesay blew in. They
stand six feet in their sox and then
some. Every time Livesay bowed,
Bryant ducked. The only reason he
ducked was because he is the only

see Livesay bow!

floors and fer a time it seemed as
though the old days might return and

QrX Feed or Wet Mash2

The wet mash of cornmeal and bran
that used to be the standard morning
feed of the farm flock seems to be go
ing out of style in favor of the hopper
full of a mixture of dry ground grain.
The new plan is better for large tlocks,
but for a small flock the wet mash has
advantages. For one thing it is easier
to keep up the water supply than
where the fowls are given all dry
grain. Another point is that the con-
slant presence of dry feed attracts
rats, while the wet mash as usually
fed will be eaten up clean.-American

Handle Manure Once Only.

It should be the rule never to handle
manure more than once. When re-
moved from the barn or feeding shed,
1t should be loaded at once into the
spreader and hauled to the field. II
the farm is small and the amount pro-
duced is only at the rate OF one or two
loads a week. the convenience and i'm
provement of taking. it directly from
the stable and spreading it at once on
the field will certainly Justify driving
the manure spreader slowly.

therefore the local grower does not
have such competition as does the
grower of less perishable products.
Sandy or light loan soil, with an
open subsol, is best for this crop.
The very best seed of the best and
most popular varieties should be pro-
vided. Home grown seed, well select
ed and we'll cured, will pay big profits
on the cost of labor employed for this
work. The first paintings must be
made early in the season, and seed
only of the greatest vitality will with
stand the unfavorable weather condi-
tions that are likely to prevail Mt this
season.
The cultivation of this crop should
be thorough, and no crop will respond
sooner to good treatment
To succeed in growing sweet corn
for the early market a liberal amount
of plant food must be provided at the
right time and in available form
This means cover crops and an in
creased use of commercial fertilizers.

grown.
1t is usually sold by the hundred and
