EVERY LOUISIANA FARM
SHOULD RAISE SHEEP

Mutton and lamb are among the
most nutritious Of our foods, and
wool is one Of our necessary staples.
A large increase in these important
products is much needed at the pres
ent time, and will be more needed in
the immediate future.
Louisiana has extensive areas that
could be successfully and profitably
utilized for sheep production, thereby
adding immensely to the general food
and wool supplies; and the intelli-
gent stocking of such areas with
sheep would be one of the best means
of conserving the feed which these
lands produce.
The number of sheep in Louisiana
at the present time is negligible as
compared to what she could support
Every farm in the state should
carry small flock of sheep; and our
cut-over lands and other extensive
grazing areas should have considerable
numbers of sheep on them. For not
only will mutton and wool be requir.
ed In increased amounts. for both food
and clothing. but the Industry. II
properly conducted. should be found
proftable.-W. H. Dalrymple, Depart

SELECTED SEED CORN
GIVES BEST YIELDS
essd Corn Should Be Selected in the
Fleh-Height Of Ear, Length OF
Shank, and Shuck Covering
Among Points to Be
Considered.

The production of good yields Of
corn requires fertile soil, proper prep
aratien and tillage of the land, and
good seed. The rainfall is also i'm
portant, but since we have to accept
the seasons as they come, we may
disregard this factor in discussing the
question of better corn. After every
thing possible has been done for the
next crop in the way of improving the
fertility of the soil and putting 1t in
frst-class condition to plant, the very
best seed that it is possible to obtain
should be planted. If one has good
variety Of corn on his place we do not
hesitate to say that the best seed pos
sible for him to plant can be obtained
from his own field. II is law of ma
turs in both plant and animal life that
like produces like" II one of two
stalks of corn grown under the same
conditions of soil and seasonal influ-
ences and with a like area of ground
produces twelve ounces of grain and
the other only ten ounces, the
chances are that the grain from the
high producing stalk will yield like
increased amount OF grain That this
does not always hold true is because
Of the tendency of corn to be thor
oughly mixed In the field by pollen
from all sorts of stalks reaching the
silks and fertilizing the grain; but il
one is careful to select only the best,
the tendency will be to improve the
yielding quality of the corn from year
to year.
Select Seed Corn In the Field.
In the early fall go into the field
and select seed corn from stalks that
have yielded the most corn, making
sure that the stalk has not been IA
vored by better soil and that there is
not skip in the stand on either side
Of 1t. Note should also be taken of
the height of the ear from the
ground. The ear should be less than
half way from the ground to the top
OF the stalk. The shank should be of
moderate length. so that the point of
the ear will tip downward when ma
ture. and the ear should also be well
covered. with the shuck tightly closed
over the tip. This is one of the most
effective safeguards against weevils.
II the corn is not gathered at the
time Of seed selection the stalks
chosen may be bent down below the
ear so that no trouble will be had In
finding them later.
Protect Against WeeviI.
After the selected ears have been
gathered they should be stored in some
place inaccessible to weevils, or pro-
vision should be made for treating
the corn with high life" in case wee
wills should appear. Some time before
planting all OF the selected ears
should be shucked and the crop from
the best ears should be chosen for
that Purpose. The "show" ear may
not produce a greater amount of corn
per acre than the rough ear, but on
account OF its high percentage of
grain II will give more actual feed.
ing value than the other.
1t Is desirable also for the corn to
be uniform In type and color, espe-
c4ally so II it is ever to be sold for
seed.-W. r. Perkins, State Agent.

University.

AMERICANS IN GERMANY
: GREATER THAN BELIEVED

The number of Americans being de-
tanned in Germany is shown by official
record to be greater than was believed.
The protest to Berlin. sent Tuesday
through Spain. was based on the spe-
cffc information regarding the deten-
tion of two Americans at Antwerp, but
general reports indicate that several
Americans in different parts of the ter
peing prevented from leaving.
The total number of Americans yet
in Germany is about 300, but it is esti-
mated perhaps four-fifths have re-
mained voluntarily, as they are of Ger
man birth or decended from German
parents and Americans only by nat
uralization.
About 120 other Americans, classed
as prisoners of war, are held because
they were landed in Germany from
ships sunk by submarines.
