Too Much Regulation
Thinks an Authority

Whether due to the strides in me-
chanics toward making fool proof
machinery, or to a ~reyersion to pater-
nalistic government, there is a strong
current setting in toward government
control of business Fortunately.
however, for the cause Of freedom.
the a~ntidote seemso be coming With
the disease. AT the very moment
when attempts are being made to add
more duties to oyerburdened admin
istration, the failure to discharge
those already imposed must cause pa
ternalists to pause. II the production
and distribution of wealth can be ac-
complished only by constant and de
tailed supervision of government,
municipal, state and national, then is
democracy a mistake, and socialism
the Inevitable; but by this lself-same
token, the failure of present govern
ment supervision indicates that so
cialism is impracticable. The history
of civilization lis marked by the shift
ing of authority from the autocrat to
the individual, from the state to the
citizen; and the present attempts to
relieve the people by regulating the
pressure, instead Of removing it, are
decidedly reactionary.
Few things in this country have
had more regulation and closed sup
ervision than our banks. The most
minute provisions are made for their
conduct, and they are subject to the
constant espionage Of the state. Yet
a large bank in Chicago. is found,
after it's failure, to have d~isregardea
pretty much all the regulations laid
down for III to follow. Laws were
enacted. officers We're named to see
to their execution, and the people
elected a. man to carry their will into
execution; yet in spite of this super
vision the laws were eyaded, the Of
feials failed in their duty, and the
people have been defrauded. II banks,
So few in number in comparison with
other mercantile enterprises, cannot
be controlled effectively, what reason
is there for supposing government
can superintend and control the vast
commercial life of the country? Ger
tain things there are that government
and BY government is meant the
people acting in their collective ca
pacity-must do, such as preserve the
peace, maintain highways. and regu-
late land tenure; but ventures beyond
these natural functions should be
made with great circumspection, and
with the fullest consideration for the
rights of the individual, and the ca
pacity of government, Since govern
ment by its very nature must be in
the hands of men Of average talent,

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inf1amed con-
di.ion of mucous lining Of the Eusta-
chain Tube. When this tube is inflam-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed, Deafness is the result, and un-
less the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Cattarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

ton of each ear unnecessary, it
is advisable to exercise precau-
ton by demonstrating that the
ears will terminate we'll. Ten
kernels from each of so ears can
be tested by one of the various
methods that have been 50 we'll
described in literature. This
demonstration that so represen-
tative ears terminate satisfac-
tory is sufficient evidence of the
uselessness of testing each ear
of the entire supply. If ears OF
poor termination should be
found, it will be advisable to
test each ear of the entire supply
in order to be able to discard
those in poor termination.
Discard the small, partially
developed kernels from the tip
of ears. Why? Because such
kernels do not yield we'll. Care
full field experiments have dem
onstrated that they grow into
small, barren, and poor produc-
ing stalks.
Discard the round. thick kerr
nels from the butts of the ears.
Why? Because the corn plant
er can not drop evenly if they
are included with the other ker-
nels.
Kernels that have been in
jured by mice or weevils, or that
are otherwise undesirable, should
also be discarded before the ears
are shelled.
Seed corn should be shelled by
hand. Careful hand Smelling
pays the man who plants but a
few acres, and it pays to a great
er degree the man who plants
hundreds of acres. Each ear
should be shelled separately into
a hand sieve. This permits the
the chaff from the cob to fall
through and the kernels from
each ear to be closely inspected
before being dumped into the
general supply. The value Of
this close inspection is lost if the
ears are run through q corn
shelter, and some of the kernels
cracked or broken.

PREPARING SEED CORN FOR
PLANTING.

Requests are now reaching the
Department of Agriculture for in
formation in regard to preparing
seed corn for planting. The
most vital part of seed corn
selection work can be performed
only at corn ripening time in
the fall. Of thousands of differ
ent lots of seed corn planted by
the Office Of Corn Investigations
not one lot seed that matured
properly and was gathered as
soon as mature and promptly
dried has been found poor of
termination.
Every corn grower should now
spend a day or more getting his
seed corn entirely ready fol
planting. The present work
consists of discarding I'M
desirable ears, termination test
ing, nubbing, classifying the
ears, Smelling, and testing the
accuracy of drop of the corn
planter.
The quality and productiveness
of the seed supply can now be
improved by discarding the poor
er ears and the poorer kernels.
The seed corn should now be
''as dry as a BONE" and among
the ears that appeared desirable
last fall some undesirable ones
will now be found. Discard any
that have dicolored kernels or
cob or that have a dead appear
ance. Discard any that are
light in weight and any with
undesirable kernels, such as
small size, very sharp beaks,
germs Of. poor development and
appearance, etc.
All the ears retained should
show good development and
maturity; be heavy for their size,
and contain solid, vigorous
looking kernels of fairly uniform
size and shape. These desirable
ears should now be tested to de-
termine whether all the kernels
will grow.
Although good seed selection
and preservation usually make a
separate testing of the germina-
