Still They Wonder Why

The two women were discussing the
never-failing theme-the incompetent
cy of domestic servants.
Well l am looking for a new cook"
said one of the women, and l am at
my wits end. They come to you as
experts, we'll recommended and all,
and they turn out to be lazy and in
copetent. l declare, l can't under
stand it."
What became of the cook you had
last week." asked the other.
My dear, she was positively the
limit. She couldn't cook, she broke
dishes, she wasted food, she wasn't
neat, she was impudent, and l have
reason to believe she drank Oh, l
had to get rid of her. Honestly, she
was so bad in every way that l could
hardly think OF thing to say when

some blue and some yellow. Most of
the flint corns have eight rows of ker.
mails to the cob. although some of them
have twelve with from thirty to fifty
kernals in a row. depending of course
on the length of the ear. For roast
ing corn the flint corns are generally
considered superior to dent or other
varieties. For feeding purposes dent
'corns are superior to all other races;
but the slower of the flints, being un-
usually less woody than that of the
dents. is better for feed. For this rea.
son it would seem that for silage the
flints would be very desirable provid-
ed there was~a sufficient proportion
,of grain. Chemically there is on the
whole no difference between white
and yellow corn. Red corn is no diff
ferent in composition from either of
the other colors. Color does not affect
the composition of the grain or the
stover. Many stockmen. however. pre-
fer yellow corn for feeding, contending
that come classes of stock eat It with
more avidity than white corn.

The Kind. Of Corn We Grow


One of the interesting ehibits at the
western national livestock show in
Denver this week was a splendid lot of
corn grown all over the arid region
and good many people put in con-
siderable time studying the peculiar
tiles and qualities of various types
We all know the dent corn. which is
the most common commercial kind
grown. II is represented by almost as
many varieties as there are different
climates. This race has in Reds Vel.
low Dent and Leaning, two distinct
and well established types. At least
three colors characterize dent corns-
yellow. white and red. while red and
yellow in combination constitute what
is called calico corn. This is the out
come of breeding of varieties. The
cobs of dent corn are red and white
and sometimes mixed. Dent corn is the
result of unconscious selection toward
n type OF the highest productiveness
under extremely favorable conditions
of climate and soil.

Clinching Argument

a northern attorney. after acquiring
a large South Carolina estate, formed
the Eureka Debating society to en-
courage free speech among the ne
groes of the neishborhood. On his
next trip south he was confronted by a
proud winner of the society's prize.
Now. what was the subject of the
debate, SAM" asked the attorney.
de subject We're, What is de Mos
Benefit to Mankind, Sab de Sun or dc

Similarly other races have been de-
,veloped by selection for certain pur.
poses. All have their specific uses
and by breeding may be still further
specialized particularly as regards
chemical composition. According to
the plant breeders any of the char
acteristics can be improved or modi-
fled by breeding. Dent corns produce
larger yields than any of the other
races due to their larger number of
kernals on the cob. More than 1000
kernals frequently are produced in one
ear while the average of standard
ears is probably near 1000 and at the
big show in Denver this week an ear
from Kiowa county measuring eighteen
inches contained 2.1S6 kernals. Ears
of these varieties contain from twelve
to twenty-four rows of kernals and
from forty to sixty-five kernals in a
row.
Flint corns are best adapted to the
plateau lands of our arid region. In
color they include several shades of
white. Some of the varieties are red,

WITH THE THINKERS


HORACE GREELEY think we all
as we grow old, love to feel and know
that some spot of earth is peculiarly
our own-ours to possess and enjoy
ours to improve and to transmit to our
children AS we realize the steady
march of years in the thinning of our
blanched locks, the deepening of our
wrinkles, we more and more incline
to shun travel, and crowds and novel
ties, and concentrate our affections
on the few who are infolded by the
dear hut, our home.

o. C. SLUTZ.-The lawlessness of
Americans is one of the phenomena of
our democratic society. We have TO-
900 homicides year in this country,
more than the aggregate number in
any ten other civilized countries in the
world, leaving out Russia. We have
fifty or more lynchings in a year.
There has not been a single lynching
in the last seventy-five years in the
British empire. We have at least one
million convictions for crime of some
kind ever yyear. And there are of
course, many other wrongdoers who
are not convicted of the crimes they
committed There are 100000 recog-
nized criminals in the United States
and they cost us something like a per
capita expense of $1,000. This is high
err than the salary paid the average
school teacher. But, worse sill, crime
is increasing right along. In 1850 we
had one criminal for every $500 inhab-
itants In 1860 there was one for ev-
cry 1000. In 1890 there was one for
every $50. Possibly this is a pheno-
mena of great experiment in gov
eminent, but the increasing prevail
ance of crime and the habit of law
lessness is discouraging and very de-
pressing.

MORTON ALEXANDER.- Since the
government is loaning money to the
bankers at three per cent-who re-
loan it to the farmers at the highest
rate the traffic will bear-why cannot
Uncle Sam be as generous to the far
mers as he is to the bankers? The
bankers do not raise any corn or cab
bage or wheat They do not produce
any pork or potatoes. Did you ever
see banker dressed in overalls and a
jumper shoveling hay when the Their
mometer was forty degrees above the
melting point? Well, hardly! Do
you know that if every farmer went on
a strike and refused to pillow. SOW or
reap, every banker in America would
starve to death in nine days? A man
only lives nine days without food. Why
can't the farmer, the most useful citi-
zen in the nation, borrow money from
the government to conduct his bust
ness as cheaply as does the banker?

T. D. ROSA charge account is
good thing and all right for the fellow
who will pay his bill when rendered,
but there is too large class that will
not pay without several statements
sent them or lot of shoe leather
worn out running after them. When
they do pay, it is generally only part
of it that they dole out, and then with
an air that they are just doing great
favor. 1t is just such people that make
the charge account nuisance, source
of expense and loss and raises the cost
of living about fifteen per cent. No
body thinks of asking the railway COM
pany or the postoffice for credit and
they think just as much or more of
them, than if they did give credit.
HON. GEO. w. CLARKE.-The very
first essential to well-informed,
well-developed manhood or woman
hood is the reading habit. Not read
ing simply for entertainment, but for
instruction, for equipment. OF all the
things to be cultivated on the farm,
this habit of reading for this purpose
is by far the most essential. Perhaps
nowhere else is such an opportunity
presented as in the winter time. The
cultivation of the mind is the first re-
quirement to a conspicuously success
full and all-around management of the
farm. The farmer owes no higher duty
to his boys and girls, and to society in
general, than to place at their com
mand literature discussing farm topics.
