YALE'S WIDE INFLUENCE
 AS MOTHER OF COLLEGES
Selection of Thirty Institutions to
 Take Part in Historical Pageant.

The selection has just been made of the 30 colleges and universities of this country and the Far East found ed by Yale men or in large part by Yale influence, which are to represent the children in the Yale the Mother of Colleges" scene in the Yale Pa geant of next October: Letters have been sent to, the secretary of each of these 30 institutions notifying him of the selection and asking approval of the inclusion of the given institution in the pageant scene.
 Yale's influence in the establish ment of institutions of higher learn ing has been profound. While not easy to restrict the selection to any fixed number it is certain that the 30 on the attached sheet are among those at once most important and most clearly showing Yale influence.
 Yale graduates were the first presi- dents of the following colleges and universities. Yale influence has been pronounced in these institutions in many ways.

SEED FOR NEXT YEAR.
How Corn Club Members Should Make Selection to Prevent Corn from Running Out.

The County Corn club members have received through the New London County Improvement league the fol- lowing bulletin relative to the selec- ton of seed for next year:
 While our corn crop for this year is still a long way from the harvest, it
 is time to be thinking of seed for next year. In other words, let us be pre- pared"
 It may be possible that the corn you
 are growing is not entirely suited to your soil and conditions, but that can
 only be determined after the harvest.
 So let us proceed as if it were. Begin the nby going through the plot as soon as the corn is well cared out and tie
 strip of colored cloth around POO of the best stalks. Select only stalks that have at least one good ear and those
 that stand in a full hill. If stalk
 stands alone, it gets more light, water and plant food. Therefore, it may bear a good ear just because it had a better chance and not because 1t has inherited high yielding capacity. By marking these stalks plainly in the above manner, they can be found at husking time and the ears kept separate. Some of them will not bear good ears, because it is impossible to tell without husking. But out of the l 200 there should be 100 good ears, and these will have been properly selected. By following this method of select | ing seed each year, you can prevent your corn from running out There | is a simple plan for improving or
 breeding up" your strain that will be ] sent if you care to undertake the

New York. N. Y.-In a recent dis
 course Dr. E. Sauer, a well known spe-
 ciaIist who has studied widely both in
 this country and Europe said: If you
 were to make an actual blood test on
 all people who are ill you would prob
 ably be greatly astOniShed at the eX-
 ceedingly large number who lack iron
 and who are i'll for no other reason
 than the lack of iron. The moment
 iron is supplied all their multitude of
 dangerous symptoms disappear. With
 out iron the blood at once loses the
 power to change food into living tissue,
 and therefore nothing you eat does you
 any good; you don't get the strength
 out of 1t. Your food merely passes
 through your system like corn through
 a mill with the rollers so wide apart
 that the mill can't grind. As a result of this continuous blood and nerve
 starvation, people become generany
 weakened, nervous and all run down.
 dftions One is too thin; another is bur dened with unhealthy fat; some are so
 weak they can hardly walk; some tmlnk they have dyspepsia, kidney or nLer
 trouble; some can't sleep at night, others are sleepy and tired all day; some fussv and irritable; some skinny and bloodless, but all lack physical power and endurance. Tn such cases It is worse than foolishness to take St1m- ulating medicines or narcotic drugs, which only whip up your fagglng vital powers for the moment, maybe at. the expense Of your life later on NO mat ter what any one tells you, II you are not strong and we'll you owe It to your self to make the following test: See | how long you can work or how far you | can walk without becoming tired Next
