What He Would DO.

Who is that hatchet-faced woman
over there who seems to think it is
necessary for her to do all the talk
ing?"
Don't you know her?i
mo, never saw her before. II
she's married I'm sorry for the poor
devil who is her husband. | can't
imagine anything more terrible than
being tied up to woman like that for
life. Heavens, hear her go i'll Her
voice is like rasp. | should think
her throat would be ali worn out. Do
you know what I'd do If / were mar
ried to such woman?"r
mo. For heavens sake tell me-"
1 "Oh. / beg your pardon, old man I
didn't mean any offense. IL apollo
gize."
That's all right. You gave me to
understand a moment ago that there
was something you would do if you
were married to such a woman. What
is it,"
I'D hasten to let my friends know it
when took her out anywhere so they
wouldn't be in any danger of making
the kind of break I've just made"

Ten Ears Of Corn From the Same
Field, illustrating the Uniformity
In All Desirable Characters Attain
ed by Careful Seed Selection.

IL responsible in great measure for the
present low average yield of most OF
our crops.
In the case Of corn, this variability
Of plants is particularly striking. A
large majority of the plants produce
ears of small size, irregular in shape,
and light weight, which are undesir-
able. Many of the stalks are barren.
Only small proportion of the plants
produce the maximum size and weight
of ear. If every kernel produced a
uniform plant and the plants bore uni
form ears weighing one pound each,
the average yield per acre would be
about 1O,66S pounds, or about 155 bush
els of shelled corn per acre. The
fact that the average yield throughout
the corn belt is less than 40 bushels
per acre is striking evidence that only
a small proportion of the plants bear
ears of the maximum weight
