The profits to be derived from the
good preservation of seed corn have
been put to practical tests by the Of
Ace Of corn Investigations OF the
United States Department OF Agri.
culture. The cuts show a building
constructed solely for the purpose of
preserving seed corn. 1t has a con-
crete basement and flue. Warm air
passes from the basement through
openings in the floor, ascends through
the corn, and escapes through venti-
lators.
This house was constructed at q
cost Of $500, and in one year returned
to the farm $1,000 in profit, due to q
fve-bushel increased acre yield on TAO
acres planted with seed corn dried
and stored in it. These figures were
obtained as the result Of II separate
tests. The owner of the farm on
which this test was made was not
fully satisfied With 1t because it was
made on small plats, and he there
fore made more extensive tests. At
gathering time in November he
selected two bushels of seed, placing
one bushel in crib and the other
bushel in the seed-corn dry house.
In the spring with a two-row planter
he planted four rows 1880 feet long
and 3A feet apart with tho seed kept
In the dry house; then four rows with
the seed kept in the crib. This he re-
peated seven times, making eight
vests in all In which four rows planted
With one lot of seed were compared
with the adjoining four rows planted
With the other lot of seed. At har-
vest time four rows yielded a wagon
load OF ears. which constituted a
weighing. From the seed kept in the
crib there were produced 1926
pounds, while from seed kept in dry

house there were produced 1926
pounds. Each row of the latter pro.
1uoed uniformly more than each row
If the former.
These results are the same as In
The tests of the department where
The rows were thinned to the same
stand of stalks.
The experiments emphasize the fact
hat the productiveness Of the stalks
more important than the number.
full stands can be obtained by the
Heavy planting of weak seed. Good
fields cannot be obtained In this
way. The most expensive seed to
liant is that from which q stand of
talks can be obtained but from which
good yield cannot be obtained.

citation to the grain yield as the num-

Stirring MIX to Cool II.
The Importance of stirring milk
while being cooled has been demon
strated in experiments conducted by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. When the cans of milk are
merely set in cold water the cooling
process Is very slow, much too slow.
In fact, to be at all satisfactory to a
progressive dairyman. In particular
the milk at the top of the can above
the level OF the water is hardly af-
fected at all. The cold milk, being
heavier than the warm, will remain at
the bottom of the can, while the
warmer and lighter milk stays at the
top. Ultimately, of course, the entire
canful will acquire the same tempera-
ture, but this will require such q long
period Of time that for practical pur-

rector of Public Welfare Tolkacz are

The paJamas will not be fancy and
will not contain ribbons and elaborate
trimmings, but they will be service

will be made of material similar to
that used for overalls and jumpers.
The purpose of the pajamas equip.
ment Is to provide the dodgers with
covering during the night, while their
clothing is being sterilized. The cots
used are Of steel. and no bed clothing

A TREATMENT THAT HEALS
ITCHING, BURNING SKINS

Don't stand that itching skin humor
one day longer. Go to the nearest
druggist and get jar Of resinol oint-
ment (50c) and a cake Of resinol soap
(25c). Battle the eczema patches with
resinol soap and hot water, dry and
apply little resinol ointment
It's almost too good to be true The
torturing, itching and burning stop in
stantly, you no longer have to dig and
scratch, sleep becomes possible, and
healing begins. Soon the ugly, tor
turing eruptions disappear completely
and for good.-Adv.

NOT LIABLE FOR DEATH?
Mining Co. Claims il Was Not Re
sponsibIe for Gordon Fatality.

Because George l.. Gordon, a Hough-
ton young man was killed by lightning
the Loretto Mining company, for whom
he was employed, has fled notice with
the state industrial board that it is
not liable for the statutory compen-
sation for the death.

the general office of the company
where he had no right to be. that he
was an employee of the assay office.
The report Of the accident as made
by superintendent Baxter of the com
pany to Mrs. Gordon. widowed moth
er of the Young engineer, was that
George was killed while i'm the act Of
handing in at the general Office an as-
say report At least he had to come
into the general Office to turn in the
report. Mrs Gordon believes he was
still giving his superior some informa q
ton about the report. when bolt OF
lightning came through the telephone
and killed him.
Mrs. Gordon has not as yet filed a
claim with the industrial accident
board. though she has received blanks
on which TO do SO, with instructions
to file them twenty days after receipt
II nm the meantime she has not heard
from the Lorctto Mining company with
