LITTLE MARY'S ESSAY
 By Dorothy Dix

Cats are animals when they aren't folks. A cat has four legs, one on each corner, and a fur coat that 1t wears both winter and summer, and noise inside of 1t that sounds like a dollar watch.
 Cats have almost human intelli- gence, for they purr when you rub their fur the right way, just like peo- pie do when you jolly them and tell them how wonderful they are. Also they will hang around place as long as you will make them warm and com fortable and give them something good to drink, and in this also they re- semble man.
 Cats are very useful for carrying about diphtheria, scarlet fever and tu- berculosis germs from house to house. These they secrete in their fur, so that the baby can easily find them when it plays with kitty.
 There are great many different hllluS Ol Cdto. IHeie diS hiS Soit Se'eo and Maltese cats, and Tabby cats. and Thomas cats and the cat o'nine tails, and the woman next door, who is the biggest cat of all.
 Angora cats are large, fat white cats, that look like a set of furs that somebody gives you at Christmas and hopes you will think is fox. Angora cats have millions and billions of hairs which they shed continually, and after you have visited a place where they have pet Angora you spend the balance of your life picking the hairs off of you. People wno have Angora cats are hated by their fellow crea- lures.
 I do not know anything about the other kin1 of cats, because our cat is just plain stray cat.
 Mostly old maids keep cats, and they do this for purposes of defense so they can talk about the smart things their cats do when mothers be- gin to tell about the cunning things their children say.
 Cats have very musical dispositions They love to get out on the back fence at night and sing, and if you had paid $6 seat for it you would think you were at the opera at Wagner perfor- nance.
 When lady says to another lady "How young you look at your age,' or "How splendidly you are looking this winter; you must have gained 25

1915 SEED CORN MUST
 BE SELECTED AT ONCE
Delay Until Time to Plant to Secure
 GOod Parent Stock Why Arkansas Average Yield is 20 Bushels an Acre

Do not wait until planting time to pick out or buy the seed corn. Begin to look for good seen ears now and keep them in dry place and protect ed from the grain moth so that they will grow. Many farmers depend on picking the seed corn out of the crib late in the season only to find that during the winter most of it has been fed, and that only a few bushels of nubbins remain from which to select the parent stock for the crop of next year.
 Corn that is allowed to stay in the crib all winter, especially if it was put in damp or become damp, will not ger minate strong, with the result that there will be many weak plants or missing hills in the field There is al ways a rush of work in the spring at planting time. Seed should be select ed before this rush begins.
 A man who is not pushed for time will do better work, so that seed that is selected early will be of better quality than that selected when the farmer feels that he ought to have his teams in the field. Select fifty ears for each acre that is to be planted. Some of it is likely to be spoiled or become damaged. At second selection at planting time, some of the ears will be thrown out because they do not look as good as they did at first.
 Plans may be changed so that few more acres may be planted than was at first intended. After all if there is a small surplus it may be sold to some neighbor who has neglected his seed, and who will be willing to pay a good price for it, or it may be fed and nothing lost. If you must buy seed get it early. The seed houses usually sell their best seed first and it there is a demand may sell very inferior seed at the end of the season. The failure of so many of our farmers to get superior quality of seed early in the season is one big factor in caus- ing the average yield of corn to be only twenty bushels per acre in Ar kansas.
