SERENADERS GREET
LIBERAL COMMODORE
ILLUMINATION OF ESPlANADE
BURGOYNE FOLLOWED BY
VISIT OF CITIZENS TO HOME OF
THE GIvER.

In conformity with the prediction
made in Saturdays issue of the Daily
News, the Esplanade Burgoyne was
lighted Saturday night. The illum-
ination of the many scores of electric
lamps mounted in clusters on iron
posts about 100 feet apart along the
esplanade, from where it begins at
Orange avenue to the concrete bridge
made a very pretty picture indeed
Daytona may well be proud Of its sec
ond-to-none white way" and every
well.meaning citizen is grateful to
Commodore Burgoyne for adding to
an already beautiful locality another
attraction so appropriate and costly.
Shortly after the lights were turned
on, a delegation of citizens. which in
cluded number of the municipal Off
cials, headed by Saracina's Royal
Italian band (another delightful
amusement feature provided for the
city by the white way" donor,
marched from the kiosk on Beach
street to the commodore's residence
and serenaded him. Sincerely appre.
ciative of this act of thoughtfulness
on the part of his fellow citizens,
Commodore Burgoyne invited the en-
tire party inside, where they were al
most overwhelmed with the lavish
hospitality for which their host is
justly famed.
The Esplanade Burgoyne will be
lighted regularly each night hereafter.

STOLEN BICYCLE
IS RECOVERED
WHEEL WAS ABANDONED ON EN-.
MET STREET AFTER REWARD
FOR RETURN WAS PUBLISHED
IN DAILY NEWS.

Francis Mills, a yOungster of II, had
his bicycle stolen from the basement
Of the school house Friday morning
just before recess. A thorough search
all Friday afternoon failed to locate
the wheel and Francis went to bed
that night feeling worse than some
would feel by losing fortune in Wall
street The sorry part of 1t all was,
Francis bought the wheel new only
the day before and on the installment
plan at that. On the following day,
however, L. J. Mills, father of the boy,
caused an ad to be inserted In the
Daily News offering a reward of IS
for the return of the bicycle. Shortly
after the paper made its appearance
in the afternoon, Francis was notified
that his wheel was lying along the
roadside on Emmet street, where he
later found 1t in apparent good con-
dition.
1t is presumed that the bicycle was
taken by some school boy, but being
frightened by threat Of the principal
to expel the culprit II discovered with
the wheel in his possession, and the
subsequent offer Of reward In the
columns Of the News, served to bring
about the abandonment Of the bicycle
as above stated.

(Ry C, P. BULL and L. H. ROBBINS)
In case one has no special seed
plot" in which his best and earliest
maturing ears were planted, it is then
necessary that his seed corn be Sc
lected from the field. The most prac-
teal method to do this is to go
through the field with a sack tied
across ones shoulder and select the
choicest and best-matured ears. Two
rows of corn may easily be examined
at once. During the process of selec-
ton, consideration of the strength and
character of the stalk, the height of
the ear from the ground, and the size
of the shank, should be noted. A
stalk does not necessarily have to be
large to be a big producer. A tall
spindling plant lodges very easily. The
stalk should be of good size and strong
at the base, gradually tapering, and
not necessarily tall. Strong, vigorous
stalks Of medium height, usually pro-
duce the best and earliest-maturing
ears. The ear should be attached to
the stalk by a medium-sized shank,
which is long enough to allow the tip
Of the ear to hang down.
All ears in a cornfield will not ma
ture at the same time. A variation Of
Is days in maturing of ears in field
is not uncommon. One Of the rea-
sons why good selection of corn can

1t is not difficult to dress the young
lad correctly, for in his case, as in
that of men, few good styles are
given the stamp of approval early in
the season and dutifully followed un.
til its close. Men are less independent
in dress than women, and the boy also
wants to be dressed like his mates.
His desires having been fulfilled in
this regard he is unconscious of his
clothes once they are acquired.
A sensible outfit for the schoolboy
from eight to sixteen is shown in the
picture above. 1t consists of knicker-
bockers in gray or brown mixture and
Norfolk coat. These are worn with
a soft percale blouse with soft turn
over collar and cuffs and an incon-
spicuous four-in.hand tie.
The short topcoat is made Of heavy
wooden material showing an indis.
tinct plaid. 1t is double-breasted and
finished with large flap pockets, very
substantial and firmly sewed down. A
wooden cap, strong ribbed stockings
and calfskin laced shoes carry out the
appropriate details of the outfit. For
school, wooden gloves or those of dog.
skin are in keeping with the coat and
cap.

Duwid, but henceforth you must

not be made from the shock, or from
the field late in the fall, is that one
is not able to tell the time the ear
matured.
Desirable ears may mature ten or fif-
teen days later than the average
freezing time; and, if those are select
ed, they will insure a late-maturing
crop. Again, if corn is left unhusked
until late, the husks prevent the ear
from drying out properly; and, as a
consequence, it is likely to be frozen
before it is husked, or at least before
it has had time to dry out after husk-
ing.
In the choice of corn for seed, one
selects the ears that he believes will
give him the largest yield of good corn
the following year. 1t is a good plan
to choose an ear of corn that is as
near the type wanted as possible; then
keep this ear from year to year, or I'M
til you get better one. At any rate
have a sample ear that you can look at
occasionally to- help you in following
one type. Keep this type-ear handy
when selecting corn in the fall; and
in the spring, when the final selection
is made, it is well to compare all ears
carefully with the type-ear.
A common practice is to select ears
that are too large. 1t is much better
to grow three medium-sized mature
ears to the hill than 1t is to grow three
larger immature ears per hill. AS a
general rule, the larger the cob and
the deeper the kernel, the longer 1t
will take the ear to mature.
Indications of maturity are looseness
Of kernels on the cob, high percent
age Of moisture, chaffiness Tor thin,
small, poorly developed kernels), ad-
herence of the tip cap to the cob, and
generally a large amount Of white
starch.
It may be well to emphasize the fact
again that many are inclined to select
care that are too large. This is very
natural thing to do, because everyone
likes large ears of corn better than
small ones; but it is yield per acre
rather than large ears that determine
profit. And II one allows himself to
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1915-10-21

select ears so large that they will not
mature, he is the loser thereby.
1t has been learned, by many tests,
that ears of certain form yield more
than other ears different from the
standard form. Ears of corn likely to
give best results carry the butt dame
ter well towards the tip; they are free
from indentations or other irregulari-
ties that would tend to decrease the
yield of the ear; they have straight,
regular rows of uniform kernels, and
have kernels extended we'll over the
tip and butt.
1t costs Just as much to grow an ear
of corn that has kernels covering
three-fourths of the cob as it does to
grow one with kernels covering the.
whole cob. The kernel contains most
of the feeding value. The cob is of
very little value as food, hence the
rows of kernels should round well
down over the butt and extend well
over the tip mot necessarily clear
over thus insuring good proportion
of corn to cob. The rows should run
straight from the butt to the tip; be-
cause, in crooked rows, there are
more irregular kernels, and kernels Of
irregular size make it impossible to
plant a uniform number in each hill.
To get the most feeding value out
of an ear of corn there should be no
space between the kernels at the cob.
1t is the tip Of the kernel-the end that
contains the germ-that is richest in
food nutrient. Pointed, chaffy tips in
dictate low feeding value and poor
terminating power. Every precaution
should be exercised to select seed corn
that will grow and produce strong, Wig
orous plants. Space between the kerr
nels at the cob, and lack of furrow,
usually indicate a low proportion of
corn to the cob, immaturity and poor
vitality. The tip of the kernel should
be wide, allowing room for a long,
broad and deep germ.
Nothing will aid more in making a
high yield of shelled corn than a deep,
well-formed kernel But do not select
a too deep kernel, because the deeper
the kernel, the greater is the length of
time required to mature it, and, above
all other things, maturity is the first
consideration. To secure uniform
planting, the kernels of selected seed
corn must be all or nearly the same
size, not only on one ear, but through
out the whole selection.

SOME FIGURES ON
ROTATION OF CROPS
Interesting Data Collected From
Demonstration Farms in
North Dakota.

The crops are rotated on the % dems
onstration farms operated in North
Dakota. This gives each crop the best
chance to do well. In 1914 the aver
age cost per acre of producing the
crops was 1913 the average income
per acre was $17.49, leaving an aver
age net return of 1886.
The net profits per acre from each
crop was: Corn $8.49, hard wheat
$500, durum $685. oats 1887, barley

Following the instructions of Duwid
the first men set about breaking of

planting them, selecting those which
bore different kinds of fruit and vege-

tired of labor and stopped. Hence.
when the tree was cut down only a
few of the many varieties of food
which it grew had been saved for
mankind, and so there are today only
a few species Of edible plants in the
world. If the first people, had been
more industrious these would have
been found in greater plenty. More
