mo Smoking in Kentucky?

The Flying Squadron, which will
soon make whirlwind campaign
through the State of Kentucky will.
it is thought, take up the matter OF
a statewide law prohibiting the use
of tobacco in any form. At the re-
cent annual meeting of the Ken
lucky Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union, held in Winchester,
Clark county. strong resolutions were
passed by the convention, opposing
the use of the weed on the grounds
of morality and the general benefit
of the people. The Flying Squadron
will probably follow this lead and it
is likely that prohibition of the use
of both liquor and tobacco will be
discussed and advocated. Many
states have anti-cigarette laws
practically all of which are dead
letters as far as enforcement is con-
cerned-but no state has yet pass
ed sweeping law against the use
of tobacco in any form. AS Ken
lucky is one of the great tobacce-rais'
ing districts, it will be interesting to
watch the results of an attempt to
prohibit it's use in that common
wealth.

UNIFORMITY DESIRABLE IN
SELECTING EXHIBITION
CORN.

In selecting ten ears for exhibition
the FIRST thing to remember is that the
sample will be judged as whole and
not in part on the merits Of few ex
ceptionally good ears. Two or three
unusually fine ears cannot make up
for the deficiency of the rest OF the
sample They will bring out more
prominently the poor qualities of the
other ears and therefore detract from,
rather than add to, the appearance OF
the sample.
Uniformity should be one Of the
principal considerations in selecting
corn for exhibition. Have every ear
like every other ear in shape, size,
character of kernel, color Of cob and
in shade Of color of the grain. When
selecting sample. first pick out in the
field while husking or from the wagon
or crib, one hundred or more OF the
best ears to be found. Lay them out
on table or floor side by side, and,
having in mind all the characters of
a good ear, study each carefully and
eliminate the poorest ones. Two or
three hours can be spent very profit.
ably at this. Next, select two or three
Of the most ideal ears in the pile.
using each as standard, match them
with as many good ears as can be
found. Finally, out of these lots,
choose the best ten ears that will
match.
The ear should be cylindrical, or at
least only slightly tapering, with rows
running straight from butt to tip. A
tapering ear has either less rows on
one end than on the other. or the
kernels are shorter or narrower on
the tip end. In either case. the
yield OF grain is less than that OF a
cylindrical ear; besides, in the latter
case. there is the additional objection
Of lack of uniformity in shape of kernel
which makes it impossible for the
planter to drop them evenly

MOVABLE SCHOOLS FOR MARY
LAND NEIeHBoRHoops.

Plans are now being made by the
Extension Service, in Coz oeration with
the Farmers Institute Department Of
the Maryland Agricultural College to
continue the work inaugurated last
year. Of holding Movable Schools or
Neighborhood Short Courses in Agri.
culture and Home Economics, In diff.
ferent sections of the State during the
winter months.
These courses were a great success
last year. They are not in the nature
of an Institute. but supplement this
class Of instruction. Short courses
will be conducted for four days at any
given place. They are designed to fur
nish to the farmers and farmers
wives, and particularly the young men
and women in the farm homes, an CD.
portunity to secure. through a series
of complete and regular lectures, and
practical demonstrations, information
in given phase OF farming in which
the individual or community is
especially interested. On account OF
limited funds and men and women
available for the work only a small
number OF these Neighborhood Courses
can be conducted this year. Every ef-
fort will be made to make these prac.
teal and useful to the community. For
this reason courses can only be held
in those places where the people are
deeply interested, and are willing to
put time and energy behind them SO
as to make them success from every
standpoint.
Local communities interested in
these Neighborhood Short Courses
should communicate with the Exten-
sion Service. Maryland Agricultural
