THE LUNCH CONSERVATION.

Prof. Pratt's article was a very far-fetched defence, nothing in it.
 Other schools are cutting this non- sense out and in so doing they are setting the pace for real conserya- tion work.
 And what is good for other schools would be good for Malvern school It would not only be a saving of food stuffs but would save a world of worry for the mothers of the school.
 Now if there are any people in the town of Malvern that need to be favored in this time of stress and anxiety, it is the mother or mothers of our town.
 believe in law, I believe in rules we can't get on without them no- where, but there are times when iron-clad rules must be put aside and let common-sense take their place.
 If pupil goes to lunch and is tardy, punish that one by having that one carry his or her lunch for a number of days. This is called free country, a country where the people have a right to be heard, and if law be- comes a burden, they, the people have right to repeal such law.
 But i'll this case it would be bet ter for those who have in hand the management of the school to yeild to the wishes of the patrons of the school. This trust they will do. The people want it and the people are in the right at this time, this no one will deny
 Let the directors pass the order down the line so that peace and harmony may prevail. This will be good for the town and for the school. We trust that this will be done and done at once.

PEOPLE FAMILIAR WITH POST
 AGE RAISE

The Postmaster and employees of the local postoffice have had little or no trouble in educating the public to place three cents on their letters instead of two cents and two cents on their post cards instead of one cent. Post master Mann states that the number of letters deposited for mailing with the old rate of postage have been very few, and that the public has accepted the change without protest-a great many expressing themselves as glad to "do their bit" in this way.
 Beginning December 1st, war tax of one cent will be charged on each 25 cents parcel post matter. This rev. enue will be paid by attaching a rev. enue stamp to the parcel, the sender to cancel same with his initials and date of mailing. The revenue stamps will be on sale at the postoffice. There will not be much revenue derived from this sourc at the Malvern postoffice as 80 per cent of the parcels mailed here are under the limit.

lest Your Seed Corn.

How would you like TO make s. or
more per hour, even Il for only a short
time? While there is no definite assurance
that you can make money at this rapid
rate, still the chances are that time spent
by farmers in testing seed corn this year
will net in increased yields sum very
near the one mentioned. In fact the Ohio
Experiment Station tested seed corn over
a period Of five years and found that, at
the low price OF 80 cents bushel for the
increased yield in corn due TO testing
seed, time spent in testing netted return
OF S6.S5 per hour.
The process OF testing is simple. One
method is 10 build box inches deep
and 2 l-2 feet square. This box will test
al one time 200 ears or enough TO plant
ten 10 twelve acres. Fill 10 near the top
with sand or sawdust and dampen well.
Cover this sawdust or sand with a muslin
marked off in 2 inch squares. Number
the squares and each ear 10 be used for
seed with a corresponding number.
Take from each ear six grains and
place in the proper 50 isre. Cover the
corn carefully with a heavy cloth and
keep moist and in warm room for six
days. Examine at the end Of this time
and note the number Of any square in
which one or more grains failed TO sprout.
Locate the ear bearing the corresponding
number and from which the grains were
taken. Discard this ear for planting pur-
poses.
