Why Spain Lags Behind.

In thousands of villages and small towns in the interior of Spain no one knows how to read or write There are in Spain S0,000 rural villages with, out schools of any kind and many thousands which can be reached only by a bridle path, there being no high roads or railway communication of any kind. Attendance at board schools is voluntary, not obligatory. Seventy six per cent of the children in Spain are illiterate, and this is especially noticeable in the capital.

EXCELLENT CHANCE
TO GET SEED CORN
Southern Portion Of State Will
Have to Furnish Seed Corn
This Year

The delaying Of killing frosts in the
southern part of the state is giving
the farmers in this section an unusu-
al seed corn opportunity. The ear:y
killing frosts killed the corn in the
greater part Of the state before it
vas ripe enough for seed. This sec
tion will have to De supplied with seed
corn and the southern part Of the
state has the corn that will make the
seed. The large proportion of it is
now well dented and in good condi-
tion for making seed corn. 1t will,
however, have to be gathered and
carefully cured. The big grain crop
is making big demands on tie farm
ers time. The saving Of seed corn
is fully as important if not more so.
It will bring a good price in the
spring and more than that every bush
el of seed corn saved will mean s
or acres more of corn IRON North
Dakota grown seed next year, The
corn on the breeding plats at the
North Dakota experiment station is
ripe.
Many farmers are gathering seed
corn these days when it has been too
wet to thresh. This is mighty gooG
use to put the iime to. The time for
saving seed corn will soon be over.
