 Number each ear of corn. With knife take out 6 kernels from each ear-2 from the butt, from the mid die an6 from the tip. Put the ker- nels in the square having the same number as the ear.
 When all the kernels are placed make core of paper about as big as i Q pencil and roll the cloth around it, i taking care not to move the kernels | When the cloth is rolled up tie it with a string loosely.
 | Soak in water for A hours in a i pail or deep jar. Then pour off the water, cover the pail or pan and set stove. If the "dolP' gets dry, sprinkle with water.
 The corn will sprout, if it is good, in from 4 to 6 days. When the sprouts are ? inches long, carefully Iunroll the "doll'' on the floor. Do not let the kernels get mixed.
 Now compare each ear with the lsprouted kernels, taken from it. Ii Iau are good, strong, healthy sprouts Isprout is weak, do not plant the ear
 Be sure to test a few more ears than you will need to plant your plot Some may not be good.

SUGAR INDIsPENsA8LE
 AS A FooDsTUFF.
Two Grammes Equal in Nourishment
 to One Grannme of Butter.

Zurich, Switzerland, April 19.-From all parts of Germany are coming re- ports of the scarcity of sugar. The war has shown how indispensable Q foodstuff sugar is-two grammes are said by chemists to be equal in nour- ishment to one gramme of butter. And since butter and margarine, and lard. and all kinds of fats, are now only procurable in very small quantities, at very high prices, the importance of sugar has become much greater than ever before.
 Before the war Germany exported more sugar than any other European country. After providing for the do- mestic consumption of 2,400,O00 tons. another 1 200, GOO tons were exported.
 When the war broke out the Gerr-an sugar interests feared they would be swamped with their stocks and inn plored the government to permit them to continue to export 1t as before, as- serting that the next harvest, added to the stocks on hand, would suffice for all human needs for two years. The government consented and the consequence was that immense quan- titles of sugar were sent through Hol- land and reached the English market. This permission to export was soon withdrawn, but it proved how the gov ernment had underestimated the length of tine war.
 At first sugar prices rose scarcely at all, 1t was only when butter and fats began to grow scarce that Ger man housewives were urged to substi-
 ute sugar for them in the form of l jams.
 Then came the idea to use sugar for | fodder purposes. and nearly a million ! tons were consumed in this way last year. Large quantities also were taken | for making a compressed yeast for the | bakeries and in the manufacture of
 spirits instead of the usual grain and | potatoes.
 The area of sugar beet cultivation | decreased also owing to the higher | rents demanded for land and the pro- | duction has decreased because of the | scarcity of labor and of artificial ma | nures. Taken at the best, the beetroo' | crop of 1915 brought only some 3.5O0,' 900 tons against 5,5O0,OOO tons in nor nal times. The government has now | forbidden the use of sugar for cattle feeding, and also in breweries, anC further cut down the supply for ChOcO
 late and candy manufacturers by one half But still in March, before tn, first half of the sugar harvest year l.
 over, there is an alarming scarcity. i There is little doubt that larg
 quantities are being deliberately hell
 back for higher prices. despite all tn
 threats of the authorities against per sons acting in this manner.

New Coast Guard Orders,

Announcement has been made that the cutters of the coast guard service are to be called on for service only by vessels actually in distress. That an nouncement was prompted by the fact that recently calls have been made by vessels safely at anchor in good water with plenty of sea room merely because they were held up by head winds and wished a tow into port. Such action by ship masters prejudices the interests of craft that actually are in distress and arc in peril of laundering or going ashore.
