Best Stand as Result.
If seed corn is taken care of in this
way, and every ear tested for ger
mination, the result will be the best
stand 1t is possible to obtain under
weather and soil conditions at the time
of planting. Before testing germina-
ton, the farmer should examine each
ear and throw out all the ears which
do not look right or which have sew
eral withered or damaged kernels. He
should strive to make up his seed from
ears which in size and appearance
seem to be normal for his variety of
corn. Seed corn should be shelled by
hand to avoid the risk of damage by

farmers will build implement sheds in
stead of making use of convenient
trees or leaving their tools to warp
crack and rust out in the open field.
Paint, too, is a wonderful preserver
of wood, and on the metal parts 1t pre-
vents the formation of coat of rust
which not only looks bad, but eats
away practically as much of the metal
as is worn off by a season of hard use.

the corn drill will plant regularly.
Under ordinary circumstances it may
not be absolutely necessary to test ev-
cry individual ear. If large number
of typical ears show terminating tests
as high as 81 per cent, the seed in gen.
eral may be considered good. Under
conditions at all unusual, especially
in sections where the last years crop
did not ripen normally, it will repay
corn grower to test every ear that he
intends to use for seed.

For every plant that is grown there
is somewhere an insect to attack it;
every farm, orchard and garden is

Nail Robbers Heart Soft
ened

The Memphis News Scimitar of
a few days ago had the follow
ing clever little sketch which
goes to show that there's soft
spot in the heart of even a mail
robber, 1t was as follows:
"A mothers picture pasted on
the front fly leaf of small Bible
passing through the United
States mail to her son in Fayette-
vile, Ark, softened the heart of
robber who broke into United
States mail car Tuesday night
and ransacked II sacks of parcel
post
The package containing the
Bible was neatly wrapped and
contained also a silk handker-
chief, a tie and other small gifts.
A letter was fastened to the
Bible. 1t read:
Dear SOM send you this
Bible. Mother wants you to
read it each night. My picture
is inside"
When Postoffice Inspector
Arthur Smith found the Bible
scattered about the floor with
other packages taken from the
sacks, he opened it. Written in
bold hand under the picture
was this:
Il may be a thief, but I want
this Bible to go through. "
Mr.. Smith forwarded the Bible
by first mail to Fayetteville. {"

school, Prof: Bestul was called into
service of the army several weeks ago
and left the Mandan high school with
out an athletic teacher. President
Riley declared yesterday that the
board had found it utterly impossible
to replace Mr.. Bestul 1t is regret
able fact that the athletic course. is to
be dropped but it is matter of COM
