tions point that they will not be dis
appointed. Over one hundred tickets
were sold before the advertising ap-
peared, and people are phoning aid
writing for tickets every day
The Course is complete in every re-
spect; the program entirely finished;
the men will be on ha nd; the stock will
be there, and when the Course opens
on February 23d there will be nothing
left undone that would make the
School success.

after the erection of the bleachers in
the new Fire Hall, Is making arrange
ments for seating two hundred and
fifty people. After consulting with
Mr.. Fred Breasted, who is looking at
ter the sale of tickets, they are plan
| ming on enlarging the seating capac-
ity. Mr.. Brasted, when questioned on
the subject, said he expected 10 see at
least three hundred farmers present
on practically every day of the Short
Course. The fact that the farmers are
financing and running this Short
Course School is one of the things
that will guarantee the success in
Steele county We believe that every
loyal farmer will make 1t his business
to arrange his work 50 that he will not
miss single session of this Course.
The one. dollar price of family ticket
admitting to all four days Of the Short

yestments any farmer could possibly
make.

Corn Test-Don't Guess.

The average ear OF corn has 900 to
700 kernels. Each kernel planted In
hill should produce corn stalk; each
stalk should produce one ear Of corn.
One hundred ears to bushsl would
mean that each ear of corn should yield
SIX or seven bushels. You lose 50 SO
to 400 on each eur that will not grow
Every farmer should test his seed
corn. Testing is another step toward
greater profits. When testing, some
three or four weeks before planting,
the ears should be- numbered. II the
dorm has been hung up take small
pieces of paper, number them and nail
one to the butt of each ear with shin
gle nail, II, during tho test work, .
corn tree is preferred, a convenient
and inexpensive one may be made by
taking Pinch board, seven feet In
length, and on both sides OF it mark
off squares - inches each way. Num-
Der each square and near the center of
each drive a ten-psnny finishing nail,
one pound of which contains 1877 pals.
Stand the board upright and at the
bottom nail on both sides board
two feet In length to hole the tree erect
Ruled us above and with nails driven
through from each side tree will hold
approximately 300 ears, when leaving
the lower eight inches of the board

which the termination tests may be
made. Expensive apparatus is not
necessary. A shallow box, plate, pie
tin or cake pan may be used if nothing
better is at hand. Any Of the above,
if filled with moistened soil, sand or
sawdust and covered with moistened
papers or cloths, will germinate corn
that is planted in it, provided that the
recepticle is put In warm place
and kept from becoming too dry. The
temperature In which the corn is to be-
terminated need not be. kept uniform,
but should not be above 100 or below
so degrees. Cover the moistened soil,
sand or sawdust with plain white
cloth having spares in which kernels
from a single ear may be placed. The
squares may be made with lead pen.
Gil and should be about two inches
each way. Next take five or six ker.
nss from different parts of the Sal
and place them in the square having
the same number as the ear from which
they came.
At tho end of six or seven days care.
fully examine the kernels from each
ear, and if they have all terminated
and are vigorous in appearance, the
ear may bs used for seed. If any ker.
mel has failed to germinate, discard
the ear from which it came. Likewise
treat any ear whose kernels produce
puny plants, even though ell Of the
kernels may have germinated. Lst
the termination tests continue until
the plants are three or four inshs,
long, for If judged too soon after the
sprouts appear, many kernels may bt
undervalued because they do not ger
inmate as rapidly IS others to bsgir
with. This may be due to their thicker
or tougher covering and conssquen
inability to absorb moisture as rap
idly, which helps to start the germins
tion process.

TILLMAN TO FIRE FIRST GUN
South Carolina Senator Enjoys Conf
dence of Colleagues.

oouth Caroiina senator ENJOYS CONN.,
dence of Colleagues.
Editor Wade H. Harris of the Char
lotte Observer, who Is in Washington,
sends the following to his paper un-
der date Of December IL:
In his address at the state fair in
Raleigh, Secretary Daniels outlined
the proposed plans for the navy de-
partment to build it's own plants for
the manufacture of armor plate. 1t is
evident that Senator Tillman has been
selected to take the initiative steps in
the direction Of establishing these
plants and that the government is 60
ing to make itself largely independ-
ent Of the contractors who have pre-
viously furnished battleship material.
Tillman's bill is understood to be the
first step in the preparedness pro-
gramme. 1t will interest the people
of South Carolina and Of the south in
general to know that Senator Tillman
is no longer regarded as an invalid.
In appearance he is as robust as ever.
The fiery and impetuous Tillman Of
old will never again be known. Toned
and polished and sobered by the hand
Of experience, there yet turks in him
the vigor Of expression and the en-
ergy Of action that is ready to come
into manifestation If occasion should
arise to require it. Senator Tillman
has taken a high place in the personal
esteem of his colleagues and ranks
as one Of the most popular men in
congress, and this Is due not so much
to loss Of his old characteristics as to
the fact that his associates have come
into a better understanding Of his
disposition and an appreciation Of the
knowledge that he is mighty good
sort of a man not to nag.

CAMPAIGN IN THE BALKANS
British and French Troops are Driver
into Greece.

British and French Troops are Driven
into Greece.
The British and French troops have
successfully carried out their retire
ment from Serbia across the Greek
frontier and by an arrangement with
the Greek government clear road has
been left for them to fall back on
Saloniki which is being organized as
a base yesterday, according to Lon
don cable.
The German official report claims
that approximately two English di-
visions were annihilated" during the
retirement, but this is considered in
London an eXaggeration. Accounts
from Athens and Saloniki say the re-
treat was carried out in an orderly
manner and without heavy losses. BY
the destruction of railway bridges and
roads, and by stubborn rear guard ac-
tions, in one Of which two companies
of the Inniskilling regiments sacrif1ced
themselves to save their comrades, the
Bulgarians were kept at fairly safe
distance.
The question now arises whether the
Bulgarians and Austro-Germans intend
to follow the British and French
troops into Greece, and what action the
Greek government will take should
they do so. The impression gained
from dispatches emanating in Athens
is that neither the Bulgarians nor the
Turks. who also are reported to have
arrived near the frontier, would be
welcomed in Greece, and that, there
fore, If it has been decided to follow
the Entente Allies the task Will be
undertaken by Austrians and Germans.
However, with the railway destroyed
II may be some days before Greece is
called upon to take action, and by that
time the Anglo-French forces should
be safe in the defenSeS of Salonikl and
under the guns Of their ships.
The remains Of the Serbian army
are still resisting the Austrians and
Bulgarians in Albina while the Aus
trians are making very slow progress
in their efforts to overwhelm Monte
negro where heavy fighting continues.
ONLY small actions have taken place
on the eastern and western fronts. On
the Gallipoli peninsula fall OF snow
is empending the operations. although
the Entente Allied ships keep things
lively for the Turks, whose attempt
at an offensive last week seems 10
have failed.
British official report says that the
Turkish attacks at Kut-El-Amara'
where the British re-inforcements are
arriving, have been repulsed. The at
tacks were made from all sides, but
the British position was so strong that
the Turks were unable to make any
impression on it.
