TEST YOUR SEED CORN.

Testing seed corn has paid at the
rate of $6.85 an hour if corn is worth
SO cents bushel, according to results
obtained during five years at the Ohio
Experiment Station and reported by
C. G. Williams in the March Monthly
Bulletin of the Station. During the
five years an average increase of All
bushels per acre has been made by
testing the corn before it is plant
ed. In 1912 this increase was 9.27
bushels.
Tests made at the Station show
that the corn crop of 1915 had more
moisture in it than any other corr
tested. 1t had nearly 10 per cent
more moisture than the crop of 1912
| which was an unusually wet season
For this reason Mr.. Williams advise:
that all seed corn be tested this spring
because of the excessive rainfall Of
last summer and fall.
In testing seed corn six kernels
taken from different parts of eacf
ear are kept moist for about weel
in termination boxes at temperature
of so to rs degrees. The ears are
numbered to correspond to the squares

OLD FOLKS FIND
A CHEEKY FRIEND
A Boon to Those Who Have Started
Down the Hill of Life.

So many of US have been seeking
some really efficient remedy to give
to our old folks who are treading in
the long shadows of life. That remedy
must contain the proper tonic quail
ties to revitalize sluggish organs and
the blood.
That something has been found. 1t
is Tanlac.
It is cowardly to let debility sap
away the life and comforts when it
can be stayed. A condition of debil-
ity never wears out. Instead, it gra-
dually grows more pronounced unless
proper measures to check it are
taken. It gathers force and nour-
ishes itself upon the tissues of the
body. To build up those tissues is
TO fight debility.
Characteristic conditions of debility
both in old and young are nervous
ness, headaches, backaches, depres-
sion of spirits. loss of appetite, sleep
lessness and general good-for moth
'ng feeling that comes from lack of
energy.
Tanlac is designed to combat these
conditions in>manv ways. 1t is a
splendid tonic and tissue builder with
Just the right amount of proteids.
1t quiets nerves and brings back rest
full sleep, which is Natures first aid
20 the debilitated 1t corrects stom-
ach troubles-and there. in nine cases
out of ten, you have the seat of a
nervous, debilitating ailment.
With the BODY recharged with Wig

tonished and mighty regretful that
Won didn't start out to fight it long
before.

ser's Drug Store where its great
popularity is being better shown
every day.

him before. Was it wise and proper
for him to have settled in non
Jewish community? What hope was
there of leading a Jewish life in
Greenvale? How could he hope to
bring up his daughter properly? He
took himself very strictly to task for
having overlooked these things before,
and concluded that there was nothing
to do but to sell out, and move to a
large city. There they could live up
to their faith, and little "Jude," as
they called her, could receive a proper
religious education, in company with
other children of her faith.
When he reached home, he COM
municated his thought to his wife, De-
borah, though in sympathy with his
views, did not approve of the plan, at
least, not of its speedy execution.
Having SO recently finished a long
journey, she dreaded travelling. Be-
sides, their home here was SO cozy;
the surroundings SO pleasant, and the
people so aniable Business, too, was
good, and it was very uncertain
whether they could do even nearly as
we'll elsewhere At any rate, there
was no need for haste. At least five
years might pass before the child's
training need be seriously considered.
Until then plans could be developed.
In the meantime they would save
more money, and learn more English,
SO as to be able to open business in
large city with greater prospects of
success. Then again, Jews might
come to settle in the neighborhood and
make removal unnecessary. Perhaps,
too, she suggested, they would even
go to Palestine. They had read in the
Yiddish papers, that a great movement
was on foot for the establishment
of large Jewish colonies there. This,
especially, helped her to win him over.
AS the years passed by, Zion grew
less attractive, and Greenvale more
homelike. The longer they stayed, the
less frequent became the talks about
moving. Now and then, at holidays,
the question would be revived, but the
discussion was not spirited. In the
meantime their English improved
wonderfully. Little by little they
came to be on good social terms with
the neighbors, and they were no longer
lonely. The need of Jewish surround
ings was not felt by them as keenly
as before.
After few years, Mordecai was
recognized as one of the leading
merchants in the community. His

most of the "Crackers," or lower
plantationliving element, that came
to scott, remained to pay for things
tastefully arranged, and which they
were tempted to buy. At the end Of
the first week he knew that his busi-
ness was success. LET them smile
now" he said to himself. "Prosper-
ity will bring respect with it"
Gradually his business grew. BY
the use of tact and judgment, he de-
veloped a trade far greater than that
of his predecessor. Between the work
in the store, his qualification over his
success and the JOY of having his
family with him, the summer passed
quickly. AS the High Holidays we're
approaching, he made some hasty in
quiries for a Jewish settlement near
by, but without success. By travelling
more than 100 miles, he barely sue
ceeded in joining other Hebrews in
prayer on the Day of Atonement His
wife had to remain home because Of
the distance and the baby.
At the service he met a lew Of
Portuguese ancestry, named Pelxotto,
who later invited Mordecai to his
house to break the fast. AS they en-
tered, he noticed a girl about 20 and
young man several years older. They
eyed him curiosity.
"Your children?" he asked.
"She is my daughter. The young
man is to be my son-inlaw," was the
answer.
Don't recall seeing them at 'Shul'
during the day." remarked Mordecai.
Peixotto was silent, and Mordecai
continued.
"Do you know, l should never have
taken the young man to be a Jew
"He isn't" answered Peixotto,
somewhat confused.
They sat at the table for some mo-
ments in silence Mordecai was so
busy thinking that he forgot his hun
ger. Looking up bit later, his at
tention was attracted to very strik-
ing portrait that hung on the wall.
The host noticed it.
my father" he said. Then, glad
of an opportunity to speak we'll of his
family, he continued. "He came to
America when quite boy, and pen
niless. Yet he observed the dietary
laws and the Sabbath strictly until
the day of his death, over twenty
years ago."
The guest now looked at the pa
triarchal face long and intently, until

local national bank. His advice on
important matters was sought and
usually followed. This, together with
his wife's tact, dignity and wit, as we'll
as her charm as hostess, in time OBJ
tanned their admission to the best So
ciety. They were favorites every
where, and Mordecai was even spok-
en- of for an important political office.
And yet, he had intervals of misery
and self-reproach. He felt himself
losing his grasp of things Jewish.
True, he kept in touch with them
through a number of Yiddish, Hebrew
and English periodicals that reached
him regularly. Often he purchased
books advertised in those papers. He
sent money to various institutions ap-
pealing for aid in their columns. But
his spiritual hunger remained unsatis-
fed. He longed for Jewish surround
ings and associations.
Now and then struggling peddler
came to town. Immediately on seeing
him, Mordecai would invite the man
to the house, and, if Jewish festival
was near, the wanderer was induced
to stay over. Mrs. Halprin was rarely
pleased with the guest he was usu-
ally in no better condition than her
own family had been on coming to the
South, and she feared the neighbors
might not understand. But she said
nothing, knowing how much the COM
pany meant to her husband. To him
it was as if he had unexpectedly
found a much-beloved and long-lost
brother as if he had been sufocat-
ing, and suddenly gotten breath of
air. Especially was he delighted if the
stranger happened to be intelligent,
learned in Hebrew and familiar with
conditions in Europe. Way into the
small hours of the night they would
talk, argue and discuss. During such
a visit, Mordecai was almost obllvlous
to business. When it was over, he
was sad for at least week.
At times, on sleepless nights, he
would rise and read the Talmud, but
realized that he had become estranged
from that sacred work it no longer
gave him the JOY of old. Especially
during the Jewish holidays, his spirits
we're low, though he made strong
effort to observe the injunction "And
thou shalt rejoice in the feast" On
New Years and on the Day of Atone
ment, he would often manage, after
diligent search in nearby country
towns, to have the required ten Jews
gather at his home He would con-
duct the services himself, and try to
develop the fervor of former days,
