Take time by the forelock and get
the seed corn and the corn planter
ready for operation now before the
rush of the other spring work. The soil
and the seed are two prime requisites
of a profitable corn crop. At this time
OF the year there are many days when
weather or soil conditions prevent
blowing or other field work. that can
profitably be used in improving the
quality of the seed corn. The seed sup
ply can be improved in quality and
productiveness by discarding the poor
ears and the poor kernels.
Gull Out Ears.
The best time to grade seed corn
is before Smelling The office of corn
Investigations of the U S. Department
of agriculture proved by careful field
experiments that an ear having kerr
nels of undesirable shapes produces
ears most of which have kernels OF I'M
desirable shapes. All ears that are I'M
desirable for one reason or another
should be discarded before making
termination tests.
termination Testing.
At this season for several years past
number of satisfactory means have
been described for testing the germi-
nation Of a few kernels from each seed
ear. Those who have neglected TO take
good care of their seed corn may now
find dead" ears among their supply
In such cases it will be profitable 70
test the termination of each ear sepa
rately. Where we'll adapted varieties
are grown that properly mature before
frost, poor termination has never been
found among ears selected as soon as
mature and cared for properly. Those
who have given their seed proper care
should pick out 100 representative
ears and make termination test OF
ten grains from each ear. If these ears
terminate ell it is not necessary tC
test the balance of the seed supply.
Why Nub Seed Ears?
Before Smelling the small kernel:
should be discarded from an inch OF
more off the tips of the ears. Accurate
field tests have proved these small
kernels to be less productive than the
fully developed kernels of the same
ears. The thick, irregular shaped ker
nels should also be discarded from the
butts of the ears. These kernels pre-
duce satisfactorily but their size Of
shape prevents the corn planter from
dropping them satisfactorily. 1t is con
venient to nub the entire supply o
ears before the Smelling process is be
gun.
Shell Seed Corn.
Many farmers who plant 20 Or A
acres of corn, carefully shell thei
seed by hand and are profited by 81
doing. A few remarkably successful ex
tensive corn growers shell hundred
Of bushels by hand. Where much seet
is required there is strong tempta
ton to run it through the corn shelter
Hand Smelling ia profitable for tn
small farmer and therefore more prof
liable for the extensive farmer. Tn

this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.

EDITORIAL VIEWS.
ANDERSON ON TERRE HAUTE.


Those good people of Terre Haute
who were somewhat exercised over
the criticisms directed at conditions
in that city by the newspapers, now
have an opportunity to read what
Judge Anderson, of the federal court,
thinks Of political practices in that
community. Sidney Onyett, the
young lawyer who assaulted United
States Commissioner Hall several
months ago, was before Judge Ander-
son on the joint charge of contempt
OF court and obstructing justice.
Onyett, personally, was dealt with
very gently by the judge, but not SO
the conditions in Terre Haute that
brought Onyett into court. Onyett es-
capped with a fine Of 500. In COM
menting on the case Judge Anderson
said:
This court has some secondhand
evidence of conditions in Terre Haute
and the disregard for the law. 1t is
an awful state of affairs. I can hardly
believe that this young man (Onyett)
and a member of the bar, would at
tack man in his own Office, an officer
of this court. 1t is a deplorable state
of mind at Terre Haute as to the law
When an officer of this court-the
marshal-went there with warrants
for the arrest of these men (Jeffers
and others who caused the original
trouble in November) he was told by
the good citizens of the great danger
he was in because these clients OF
Onyett's were armed with revolvers
armed while serving as members OF
the election board in the year of our
Lord 1919! Did you ever hear OF
such a thing?"
The judgment mention the cases OF
some Syrians, who were in court on
perjury charges, and observed that
mo doubt they were induced by those
people down there to commit such
acts" Political speeches against the
ring now clutching the government Of
Terre Haute may be discounted by
those who desire to defend the city
So, too, many newspaper revelations
be set aside with the argument Of
prejudice" But not so the opinion
OF a federal judge, whose only interest,"
law observance. Every one the state
over knows of the disgraceful condi
tons existing in Terre Haute, of the
utter disrespect for the law. of the
crime, of the debauchery and of the
footing of city Offices Onyett got into
trouble because of previous Difficult
ties concerning an election board
members of which the United States
marshal was warned against because
they were armed
1t Is hard to believe that the con
sciences Of the good people of Terrt
Haute are so hardened as not to bt
affected by Judge Andersons opinion
Only these people have it directly il
their power to remedy conditions
Newspapers may protest and judge:
may punish individual offenders ane
members of the ring, but only the PEG
pie of Terre Haute can permanent,
alter the moral status of the city
Have they got enough uprightness O
character and steadfastness of pur
pose to rise up and govern them
selves?

CITY WILL OFFER
 BONDS TO PUBLIC

New Haven, June 2o-The board of finance yesterday afternoon voted to offer the $20o,000 in street pavement bonds to the people of the city of New Haven by a popular subscription. The bonds will be in denominat ton of not less than $500 and will bear four per cent. interest
 After some discussion Mayor Rfce said that it wouldn't do any harm to offer some of these bonds, say $10o, 900, to the public even though the bond market was in bad condition at pres ent. He said he believed that the peo- pIe of the city would take the bonds at par The other commissioners agreed with him that the plan was worth trying and the controller was ordered to offer the whole $200,OOO in bonds.

80 Per Cent. of the Worlds Business
 Done on Credit


 Way back in ancient history, ever since people first bought and sold goods, credit has been in evidence Without it, trade would soon be at a standstill- Large businesses and small use it, for it is the economic way of conducting any enterprise. Why, there fore, should the private individual en- deavor to purchase their household necessities, clothes, etc, in any other manner? Yet hundreds do, handicap ping themselves, denying themselves all because they wiIl' not conduct their own business the way big business does. Cheerful Credit as devised by Caesar Misch, Inc, is used to give everyone the advantage of purchasing the best for the least and enabling all to take advantage of it, by dividing the payments of the purchase price up into small amounts that no hard ship is felt by meeting them. It places within the reach of all, the worlds best merchandise. it places a better grade of goods before many who otherwise if it was necessary to pay cash could not afford them. It is not a difficult matter to obtain Cheer full Credit, for it is freely extended to all who are in receipt of incomes, no matter how neGest.

 Betting is an ineradicable foible of human nature Thus declares the Earl of Durham, who, being fifty eight years old to-day, and, from his youth, a patron of ''the sport of kings. g speaks as an authority. Lord Dur ham, while declaring that betting is not a. crime, yet admits that it is not a virtue.
 It Is usually an unheaHhfu1 Nxcite- ment and an expensive amusement,' D says the Earl, who is steward of the Jockey Club and one of the most prominent of race horse owners on the British turf. 'It is very seldom, I think, a real enjoyment to those who indulge in it. Legislation cannot stamp out this universal human pas sion, but 1t need not foster it"
 Lord Durham has lately led in a movement to abolish tipsters' adver- tisements in the English newspapers and to that end fathered a. bill in the House of Lords.
 Whether or not the betting instinct is, as Lord Durham says, an "inerad- icabIe foible, 1t has rnanifeste itself in all ages and among all peoples. In ancient England the loser of a wager was often made a. slave to the winner and sold in traffic, like other mer- chandise.
