NOT DIFFICULT TO
GET SEED MIXED
Work in Pedigree Corn Must Be
Experimental Only, Is Decla-
ration of One Farmer.
(By G. ID. LYON.)

A good many years ago | was at
tending an institute in northern Ohio,
and a man gave me an ear of pod corn
as a curiosity. l planted 1t in some
rows adjoining some other corn, and
for several years an occasional grain
Of my corn was podded. gave
neighbor a couple of ears of the pod
corn, which he planted. with the re-
suit that not more than half the ears
that grew from them were like the
parent ears, but were just like ordi-
nary field corn.
This goes to show how easily 1t is
to mix corn in any direction, and
warns us to be very careful how we
plant pure corn intended for seed
close to any other sort.
am not quite sure that it is best
for every farmer to make any special
effort to breed pedigree seed corn.
In my own case, know that it is not,
because nothing could induce one
neighbor to grow anything excepting
a calico" corn he admires, nor an
other to get something other than q
big, coarse, white sort that he has
grown for years.
With nothing but fence row be-
tween our crops, 1t is impossible to
keep pure seed so my work In pedi-
gree corn breeding must be expert
mental only, and l will have to buy
nv seed wear after year.
1t really makes but little difference,
as pure seed is cheap, and easily OBJ
tainable from men who make growing
1t their business, and 1t relieves me Of
considerable care and labor.

The slckening sun was fairly blaz-

put a sunburnt hand on her shoulder,

PATRIOTISM

1t isn't the flag that flossz psovdas.
Or highest above the green earth.
And il isn't the cannon that's iou6esf
Which expresses the patriots worth,
I! ISN'T the pony or the shouting,
And X isn't the musical blare
That leaves US no reason for doubling
That the future we face shall be fsif.
Think not that vainglorious Wanting
Shall strengthen the might we possess,
And il isn't by fooIshly Haunting
Our banners that we shall progress;
Ii isn't the challenge, the fearless
Defiance imposngly hurled,
That shall keep us undaunted and peerless,
The wonder and hope of the world.
II isn't the riches or splendor
That the few or the many display
Which shall fit US to rule or engender,
Belief in our fitness to sway;
The faith that our forefathers gave US,
The honor for which they could die,
Alone shall have virtue to save us
And keep our star brigh, in the sky.

Eight Auto Loads
Visit Siskiyou Road

Eight auto loads made the trip
Sunday over the completed section
of the Pacific Highway on this side
of the Siskiyou mountains. Those in
the party were the Messrs. and Mes
danes Emil Peil, R. l.. Burdic, E. d.
Briggs, E. V. Carter. Fred Wagner,
Charles B. Wolf, J. ]. McNair, A. E.
Kinney, M. e. Briggs, Marsh Wag-
ner, Stuart Saunders, J. H. Let's,
and Mrs. E. H. Wagner, Mrs. P. B.
Whitney and Mrs. w. E. Case; also
! the Misses Nellie Briggs and Ruth
Whitney, and w. M. Briggs and the
little folks, Marjorie Whited, Law
renee, Paul and Wilfred Wagner,
John Saunders and Hilda Hansen.
Starting from Ashland at about IL
o'clock, the party motored up to the
end of the completed road, reaching
there about noon. AS no suitable
place for the spreading of a picnic
dinner could be found at this point,
at the unanimous vote of all they
returned over the highway to Fall
creek, where a most desirable place
for a picnic dinner was found. Here
the ladies of the crowd, feebly assist
ed by the masculine members, spread
out the bounteous array of good
things. Mr.. Wolf proved to be
popular man among the ladies for
making tables out of cast off wagon
wheels and other vehicle parts found
lying around. Mr.. Kinney, Mr.. Wag-
ner and Mr.. Briggs officiated as cof-
fee brewers and tended fire, which
occupation contributed much to their
redness of face and volubility. The
dinner was such as can only be re-
membered in ones fondest fancies
Everyone partook to their limit, and
some a little more than the limit.
After dinner all rested and en-
joyed the cool shade, talked automo-
bile and had general good time.
At about o'clock all started on
the homeward trip. Everyone were
loud in their praises of the new high
way, and were all of the opinion that
the county, after spending so much
money on such a wonderful piece of
road, should not let it lie unsurfaced
any longer than was absolutely neces-
sary, because road such as that, il
left standing for more than one rainy
season, would become highly dam
aged by the rains.

l.. A. Giamboni, editor of the news

This is Mr.. Giamboni's first visit to

possibilities, coupled with a proper

to put Ashland to the fore as a great
watering resort. Being, as he is, at
the head of the news department Of

Significance. He is getting first hand
knowledge upon which to base news
stories OF the enterprise.

VARIETY WITH TOMATOES.

ALMOST any food becomes monoto-
~ nous when constantly served in
the same way. A vegetable which
is so plentiful as the tomato Is apt to
appear on the table often and unless
the cook DISCUSSES it In various forms
1t may become very unpopular. To
vary the bill of fare try some of the
following recipes:
Excellent Appetizers.
Broiled Tomatoes.-To bron tomatoes
Just wash them well, wipe dry and cut
In halves. Cut slice away from the
rounded part Of each and dip In
crumbs. Beat an egg and season with
pepper and salt Dip each piece Of
tomato in this, then again In bread
crumbs. Butter the broiler well and
cook from six to nine minutes.
Tomatoes With Mushrooms.-Remove
the stem end Of ripe tomatoes and re-
move the pulp. Take the pulp and
mix with 1t bread or cracker crumbs,
salt and pepper and mushrooms cut
up fine. Fill shells with mixture, put
a piece of butter on top of each one
and bake ia moderate oven.
Tho Green Vegetable.
Fried Green Tomatoes.-Beata an egg
until light and foamy. Add one tea
soonful and half of olive oil, a little
salt and pepper. Beat again. Have
ready some good firm green tomatoes;
cut in slices Il quarter Of an inch thick.
Dip them separately, first in egg mix
ture. then in bread crumbs. then in
egg and last in crumbs. Have plenty
of butter in a hot spider, place to-
matoes in 1t and fry rather slowly SO
they may cook thoroughly without
burning. Keep covered to keep steam
In and make the tomatoes juicy and
tender. Serve on hot platter either
with table sauce or with hollandaise
sauce. If you try these you will prob
ably like them,
Baked Tomatoes.--A nice way Of pre-
pairing tomatoes which have not thor
oughly ripened is to bake them. The
skins should be firm. A slice is cut
from the stem end of the tomato and
the contents removed. The pulp is
mixed with an equal quantity Of bread
or cracker crumbs seasoned with pep
per and salt and squeeze Of onion
Juice. The tomatoes are re6lled with
this mixture and placed on well but
tered pan. If the oven Is hot they will
bake In twenty minutes. After the to-
matoes are placed in the pan they may
be improved by sprinkling with cracker
crumbs mixed with butter.

man was assisted in the serving by
Mrs. Ogg. The dinner was certainly
worthy of mention, the table appoint
ments being exquisite by their sim
pleness. After the dinner games
were played and different things for
amusement were INDUCED in, all of
which were cleverly thought out by
the hostess. At guessing game Miss
Maria Caldwell won the first prize
and Miss Alice Hast carried off the
second. Those present were the
Misses Alice Hast, Maria Caldwell,
Marion Summers, Ruth Ogg, Marion
Stratton, Stella Stahlman and Amy
