Selecting Seed Corn.

The time for selecting seed corn Is
near at hand, although great many
prefer selecting it in the spring of the
year, but best results come from Sc
Letting in the field. Also a very COM
mon practice in gathering seed corn Is
to select the best ears when the corn
is being husked. The U. S. and State
years of experiments find a much bet
ter way, is to select the seed ears be-
fore the corn is cut. This should be
done at once, 60 through the field and
select the stalk containing two medi-
UNI sized ears which also show medi-
um maturity. Ii is just as important in
selecting the stalk as the ear. BY Sc
lecting at this time the farmer can
choose ears that are growing on
stalks of medium grade of ripeness,
the chances are greatly improved for
more uniform ripening Of the corn for
Eext years crop.
1t Is best to choose ears at a medi-
UNI height from the ground. The low
est ears are likely to be earliest ma
turing and the tallest ears the latest.
1t is best to keep away from either
extreme and select the medium.
Deep kernels should be selected,
filled. The length OF the ears will
vary with different kinds of corn.
After the seed corn Is selected husk
It at once and put on drying racks.
In curing seed corn the all important
thing to consider, is plenty of air.
Lack Of air will at once cause it to
mold which will injure the germ. The
most satisfactory method Of curing
seed corn is to use drying racks. A
board twelve inches wide and from
four to six feet long may be used.
Four rows of ten penny nails are
driven through the board the nails
being placed about four inches apart.
Drive the nails with little slant up
wards and the ears will stay in posi-
ton better. This rack when filled
may be hung against the corn shed SO
the air will circulate through the
ears and so that mice and rats cannot
disturb it,

Treatment of Guinea Fowl.

The guinea will stand a cold winter
all right, provided il has plenty OF
good, wholesome food and dry quar-
tiers.
If they are caught out in snow
storm there will be trouble to get
them back and safely housed, as the
guinea is very much like the ruffed
grouse in this respect.
When the guineas are caught out In
the snow, instead of going back to the
poultry house, they will rise, fly and
light on the tops of buildings, in the
tops OF trees, or wherever they can
see lighting place above ground.
When there is snow on the ground,
keep the guineas shut up i'm the
poultry house, and il they are caught
out i'm snowstorm, / entice them by
means of food to alight in a shed or
some building where there il no snow
to prevent them.
III the birds are scared they are
nearly sure to go in the opposite di-
rection from the one desired and often
alight high, even If they do not nave
to alight in the snow
They will do well shut in the poul-
try house for several days, during
storm, or even for weeks.
Damp quarters and neglect to feed
literally when they cannot gather
their own food, will cause disease In
time, and may cause them to freeze
to death in cold weather.
Plenty of feed, such as is good for
chickens, and water, will keep them
in good condition.
Naturally they prefer insects and
will 80 after them much better than
chickens.-By "A. j. Legg.

work, making two runs or 10 yards

WORTHY HoLDUP.

Quoting with approval an article ap
pearing in Eyerybody's Magazine, Bar
rels and Bottles the liquor publication
of Indianapolis, declares:
1.-THE cost of pure whiskey with
corn around fifty cents a bushel is
about seven cents a gallon. In view
of these facts let us see what become
of the averment that the people OF
our country spend some two billions
of dollars annually for strong drink.
Nine tenths of the outlay is for licen-
SEES, excise, imposts, taxes and the
enormous cost of espionage and col
lection, together with the various spe-
cies of graft, tribute and excessive
profits involved in the traffic. Drink
ers pay it, doubtless, but not for
drink. Most of those two billions are
blackmail."

The Difference.

Noe Poon Chew, editor of the Chi
nese American daily paper Of San
Francisco, recently said, speaking be-
fore the City Club ofC hicago: 1.-THE
opium question is very, very serious
cGe. 1t is just like the whisky ques-
lion in this country, except that in
China we have the will to abolish the
opium, but by the reason of linita-
tiodls by other foreign countries, we
have not the power; whereas in Amer
ica you have the power to abolish the
whisky, but you do not have the will.
There Is also this difference between
opium and whisky: WLiGlzy arouses
a mans animal instincts and makes
him an unreasonable brute; opium
deadens his sensibilities and lessons
hds vitality and transforms him into
living corpse. An American whisky
drinker goes home and kicks his wife,
and an opium fiend goes home and hi
Wafs kicks him. wonder II that u

A BILLION BUSHELS
OF WHEAT THIS YEAR.

At the risk of being charged with
enumerating the poultry before the
incubator complets its work, it may
be said that with continued favorable
conditions tho United States will
have a round billion bushels of wheat
this year. A crop of 100000
bushels of winter wheat is the essi-
mate of the department of agricul
ture, and there will be enough spring
wheat, in all probability, to bring the
total to the billion mark In view of
this bright outlook it is said at Wash
ington that Secretary Houston is
singing a paean of praise over the
promise of prosperity for the Demo-
cratic administration" Just how Mr..
Houston connects a bumper wheat
crop with administration policies is
not quite clear, but in view of the
material good which such crop will
do to the nation, the Democratic ad-
ministration will not be denied a
share in the rejoicing.
One billion bushels Of wheat
would give this country heavey sur.
plus for exports. The average annual
of wheat by the Amei-
'9oeTde sIeQsnq ueA9s 81 eIdoed ueo
On that basis billion bushels would
supply our domestic demands, with
more than 300, 100000 |
eft to contribute to the worlds
But our agricultural pres
perfty does not rest alone upon the
'ize Of the crops. There is the mat
er of price to be considered. AS yet
t Is entirely problematical what
'alue In money this immense wheat
'feld will amount to- In considering
rop figures the imagination is temp.
ed to riotous excuses. Yet 1T is the
rop prospect upon which the nation
low depends to dispel the clouds Of
istrust that have doomed dark and
mister on tho business horizon. with
ut these prospects the future would
