Cultivate Your Corn.

Cultivate as soon after rains as the soil
has dried sufficiently. Keep the soil sur
face well stirred and light. This will let
rain soak in quickly and reduce waste. In
fair weather it will prevent the subsoil
from drying out. A well-stirred surface
soil will send moisture, laden With plant
food, up through the corn roots and stalks
to make ears Every weed in cornfield
is an enemy. Weeds drink up moisture
and consume plant food that should 60 to
make corn kernels instead of weed seeds.
Destroy your weed enemies when they
begin to appear. Don't wait for them to
mobilize in strength. Attack weeds if
possible in fair weather. You will then
have the sun as powerful ally. Evapo-
ration of moisture lowers temperature
A wet, evaporating soil surface, there
fore. is cold. A dry soil surface is warm. A
loose soil surface dries quickly. The blan-
ket of loose, dry soil then stops further
evaporation 1t drinks in sunshine and
becomes warm. In northern localities
and at high attitudes the warming of the
soil frequently is as important as conser-
walton of moisture. The condition of
your soil should determine when to cult
vate. Cultivation by hard and fast
rule may do more harm than good. Don't
let cracks form. They are holes through
which valuable moisture escapes. Don't
cultivate when your ground is wet enough
to form clods Clods tie up plant food so
that the corn roots can not use it. Don't
waste cultivation. Cultivation may be a
waste of time or may be actually injurious
when your soil is in good condition
moist below, dry and light on the sur
face, free from weeds. Failure to cult
vate promptly and prevent the soil from
becoming cracked, hard, or weedy may
mean a material lessening of your corn
yield.
While the plants are small cultivate as
deeply as the condition of the soil makes
necessary. Deep cultivation then is de-
sirable if your seed bed was not well
prepared before planting. Who would
attempt to grow good corn in small
flower pot? Remember that hard ground
can confine roots as effectually as pot
terry. Get your soil into open condition
SO that the corn roots can reach out for
food. After the plants become a foot
high shallow cultivation only should be
given. The roots have then spread out
close under the surface of the soil and
would be injured by deep cultivation.
Never cultivate deeply close to corn
plants after they are foot high. Such
cultivation will break feeding roots and
cause injury to the plants.-U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture

Clip This and Pin

Cincinnati Man Tells How to Shrivel In
Corns or Callouses so They Lift
Oft With Fingers.

Ouch !! -! This kind Of rough talk
will be heard less here in town if people
troubled with corns will follow tn simple ad-
that few dr.. ps of drug called freezons
when applied to tender, aching corn or hard
ened callous stops soreness at once, and soon
the corn or callous dries up and lifts right off
without pain
He says freezone dries Immediately and
never inflames or even irritates the surround
ing skin A small bottle of freezvne will cost
very little at any drug store, but will positive
ly remove every hard or soft corn and callous
from ones feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since the in-
auguration of the high heels. If your druggist
doesn't have freezone tell him to order small
bottle for you.

Milo Man Shot.

MILO, Me-, June 81. Oscar Mayo of
this town was shot and killed today as
he stood with his 12-years-old son in an
open field on his farm. The identity of
his slayer is unknown and the authori-
ties have been unable to determine
whether the shooting was deliberate or
whether a hunter mistook Mayo for a
deer. The boy said that two shots were
fired, the first of which whistled past his
head. At the second shot his father fell
dead with bullet in his heart.
