ADULT DEATH RATE TOO HIGH
Australian Commission, After Investi-
cation, Points Out Causes of Nor
tally in Middle Age.

The statement made in a recent
bulletin of the New York board of
health by DR.. Charles +. Goldman that
the expectation of life for man of
forty was actually at least year
shorter than it was ten years ago, re-
ceives confirmation from Australia in
the report of a commission appointed
TO inquire into the causes of death and
invalidity.
The Lancet London) quotes this
commissions report as saying that the
principal risk of middle age is i'm high
blood tension. The principal causes 0f
this are found in overstrain and IN
chronic poisoning of the blood by foods
and drinks, and from the bowels and
the throat.
The Lancet says the recommends
tons Of the New York and the Aus
tralian bodies are somewhat vague, but
it welcomes a campaign against avoid
able adult mortality which, it says,
need not become an opportunity for
the exhibition of rampant faddiness,
though risk lies in this direction"

POOR LOCATION OF
TREES ON PASTURE
Plants Should Always Be Set on
Higher Portions of Field
Much Manure Lost.

(From the United States Department of
Agri.ulture.)
Perhaps one of the greatest sources
Of loss Of fertility from pasture soils
results from the poor location of shade
trees and brush, according to the au-
thor Of the Grazing Industry of the
Bluegrass Region" bulletin recently
published by the department. Trees
and brush, be states, should always be
set on the higher portion Of the field
and NOT along the banks of running
streams, as so often is the case. With
good grass, the animals do not Craze
more than one-third of the time; the
rest of the time is spent lying down or
standing in the shade fighting flies.
Hence much Of the manure that is
made does not get back directly on the
land that produced the grass. If the
ma 1ure produced while the animals are
not grazing is deposited on the tops Of
the hills, ats beneficial effects on the
grass may be noted for several rods
down the hillsiUess 1t is easy to be-
lleve that If one-harf to two-thirds Of
the manure is lost frNm pasture fields
and none is added, the crops must
gradually deteriorate.

SEED CORN EARS OF HIGH WELDING VARIETY

and was not injured at the tip when
removed from the ear. If 80 per
or more kernels from any ear fai
grow or make a weak growth, 1t
be advisable to test every ear in
entire supply of seed corn. If
100 ears tested contain no poor o
further testing of the supply is
necessary.
Shelled corn is difficult to grade
isfactorily. The grading can be
better before the ears are shelled.
the seed ears vary greatly as to
of kernel they should be separ;
into two or three grades according
size of kernel. These grades shOult
shelled separately, tested in the
planter, and numbered to corresp
with the number on the planter pl,
that are found to drop them most
formly. These arrangements
be completed before the rush Of spl
work begins.
The first operation in properly sh
ing seed corn is the removal Of
small kernels from the tips of
ears and the round thick kernels fr
the butts. The former are less produc-
tive than the other kernels of the ear.
The round butt kernels are as produc-
tive as the other kernels of the eur,
but do not plant uniformly in a
planter.
Smelling seed corn carefully by hand
is profitable. The greater the acre
age the greater the profit. Each ear
should be shelled separately into q
sieve, rejecting any worm-eaten or
blemished kernels. If the grain from
one ear appears good and contains nc
poor kernels, it is poured into the gen.
eral supply and another ear shelled in
the same way.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
There is each spring scarcity of
good seed corn. This condition is all
the more regrettable, because it need
not exist; and it is much more serious
than commonly supposed, because
many do not realize fully the tremen-
dous loss to themselves and the coun-
try due to planting inferior seed. A
full stand of plants may be obtained
from inferior seed, but the yield will
not be the best possible. The loss is
due to delay or negligence. 1t can be
prevented by the selection of seed corn
in the autumn.
Seed corn that comes up but pro-
duces an Improbable crop is worth
less than seed that will not grow at
all, because greater amount of labor
and the use of the land are lost. The
seed corn that produces the best crop
is the cheapest. A bushel of seed
corn will plant six acres. Seed that
worth $50 to $40 more per bushel.
Careful breeders of productive strains
of corn are needed in every commu-
nifty, and growers who do not care to
grow special seed patch and select
their seed with care should buy the
best seed obtainable. Do not begrudge
your neighbor $3sa bushel for properly
selected and dried seed of a variety
which has made good in the neighbor-
hood, but refrain from paying q
stranger So an ear for seed said to pro-
duce 400 bushels to the acre.
To be first class, seed must be:
(D Well adapted to the seasonal
and soil conditions where it Is to be
planted.
CO Grown on productive plants of
productive variety.
(3) Well matured, and preserved
from ripening time till planting time

vigor.

Uric Acid Poisoning?

The most eminent physicians recog-
nize that uric acid stored up In the
system is the cause of rheumatism,
that this uric acid poison Is present In
the joints, muscles, or nerves. BY ex-
perimenting and analysis at the In
valids' Hotel and Surgical Institute In
Buffalo, N. Y, DIR. Pierce discovered a
combination of native remedies that he
called Anuric-which drives out the
uric acid from the system, and in this
way the pain, swelling and inflamma-
ton subside. If you are sufferer from
rheumatism, backache, pains here or
there. you can obtain Anuric at any
drug store and get relief from the
pains and Ills brought about by uric
acid; or send DR.. Pierce 10c for trial
pkg. Anuric which you will find many
times more potent than lithia and
eliminates uric acid as hot water melts
sugar. A short trial will convince you.

FRUIT OF HIGHEST QUALITY

Man Who Will Supply Demand
Variation Is Fatal.

1.-THE difference of the multitude is

a recent utterance Of, a college pro-
lessor, but there never will be a more

regards the fruit-growing industry.
Opportunity without limit awaits the
man who will supply the demand for
strictly first quality fruit.
The man who has the nerve to put
up a pack that can be absolutely de-
pended upon is the man who will make
money, and there are not enough of
that sort of men yet in the fruit bust
ness to cause any very serious compe-
tition, but the slightest variation in

Undesirable Seed Ears.

onstrated eXperimentally. The results
given briefly as enumerated are as fol-
lows:
(1) For q series of five years, II
varieties were tested In ten northern
states, equivalent lots of seed being
used in each state. Varieties that pro-
duced most in some states were among
the poorest in others.
(2) Seed ears taken from the high
est yielding rows Of ear-to-row breed
ing plats have repeatedly produced bet
ter than seed ears taken from poor
er yielding rows. Seed ears from
the best producing stalks found in n
general field produced more than seed
ears taken without considering the
productiveness of the parent stalks.
(3) Four bushels of ears were d.
vided into two equal parts, one part
being well taken care of and The other
placed in barn as corn is ordinarily
cribbed. The well-preserved seed gave
yield on poor soil II per cent higher
than the poorly preserved and % per
cent higher on fertile soil, notwith-
standing the fact that both lots of seed
terminated equally well.
Seed corn that natures normally
and has been properly preserved will
grow satisfactorily. 1t is very poor
management to neglect proper preser-
walton and to spend time In the spring
separating by termination tests those
ears that have been badly damaged
from those that have been slightly
damaged. Prevention Is better than
cure, and in this case a cure is i'm
possible. Ears slightly damaged by
poor preservation may terminate well,
but will produce less than II they had
received better care.

100 ears separately. Be sure that each
kernel tested is perfect In appearance
