It is your duty-your duty with the brain of man-to make reality oi the inspirations and good thoughts that come to you. Your will does this. It is the duty of this same will to control the energies, the passions, the driving power to be found in the other part of the brain. If the will part of your brain is not driving the other part, then you are failing in your duty as man. You might as well be lower animal.
 Encourage yourself to do good thinking is sufficient. When you think a good thought make your will the servant of that thought. Then you can make the thought a reality!
 You can climb every day of your life little higher, a little nearer to the life which is governed by reason and conscience if you will.
 You can avoid failure, the dismal old age of the man who is nothing, if you will.
 Are you striving to do these things? It Is for you to decide The will is the dynamo that does the driving Kansas City Star.

CONSERVE FOOD SUPPLIES.

Now that our entrance into the great war has created pressing need for food conservation it is adyis- able that the people of the United States should commence to seriously study not only the great necessity of conserving the equally important mat ter of finding the most practical ,1eans ot achieving the desired re- suit
 We would suggest that one of the most obvious means is to take ad- vantage of the immense food re- sources of the deep thereby lowering consumption c: |. odpots of the lana.
 AS one ot the largest items of food in America is meat the adoption of 'meatless" days such as have been instituted in Germany ,Engalnd, France n. ,lN ot..,.' ,tilig, e., .l,,.Io..a, + one of the most imminent prospects of the war situation in this country.
 It may, therefore, be well to com iAence consideration of the food con- seryation question by brief study of the most practical means of reducing meat ronsumptton. In Alaska and elsewhere along the Pacific coast reg on there is an abundance of food fich of many varieties so that there is no logical reason why ;ners could lot be many "meatless" days in every calendar month without any person 5 sacrificing anything in the way O q daily portion of ies1 fooo, by sim pie substitution of fish.
 Not only would the substitution o1 fish for flesh foods relieve the strair upon the national mes: resources bui would also tend to conserve other and equally important food elements.
 Flesh production, under present day methods, means grain consumption The beef or mutton or pork that comes to us from the butcher shoI  means that certan amount of grain which might itself otherwise have been human food-has been fed to animals. And 1t must not be for gotten that the present world famine is to a great extent a grain famine.
 Sea foods, on the other hand, rep resent absolutely no drain whatever on other lines of food and it may therefore, be said that their ocnsump- ton in lieu of meat represents a cleal net gain.
 Recent improvements in marketing and handling methods have tended to greatly improve the quality of thc fish sold in the fish markets in places quite remote from the sea coasts SC there appears no logical reason why inhabitants of q large portion of tho country could not adopt any desira- ble number of "meatless" days during the year.
 And as the war goes on there will doubtless be still greater improvements
The Nome daily nugget., 1917-06-11

in the facilities through which the inhabitants of the country may draw upon the almost inexhaustible food stores of the sea.
 Considering the imperative need for saving all the food supplies of the nation as far as possible, it would appear that to eat fish instead of steak at frequent intervals is really a patriotic duty.

PREVENT SMALL CORN YIELD.
II Should Be Special Task, Precedin.
and Not Incidental to Husking.

At corn-ripening time, drop all other
farm business, says the United States
Department Of Agriculture, and select
twice as much seed corn as you think
you will need. The job is too import
ant to be conducted incidentally while
husking, and demands the entire atten-
ton of the farmer when the time is
ripe likewise the corn.
Get the very best to be had and pre-
serve it well. because then, say the
corn experts, increased yields will re-
turn more profit than from any other
work that can be done on the farm.
The one and only proper way. to select
seed corn is from the stalks standing
where they grow, as soon as ripe and
before the first hard freeze.
As soon as the crop ripens the wise
farmer will go through the field with
seed-picking bags, and husk the ears
from the stalks that have produced the
most corn without having any special
advantages such as space, moisture, or
fertility. He will pass by the large
ears on stalks standing alone with an
unusual amount Of space around them
Strains that do well in competition for
light, and moisture, and soil fertility
are likely to repeat under the same
conditions. The most important con-
sideration is to select seed from those
plants which have the ingrained ability
to furnish the largest quantity Of dry
shelled corn
Early maturity is desirable quality,
and so are short, thick. wind-frm
stalks: topp-heayy ones with ears borne
too high are likely to mean losses.
Breeding experiments have proved that
the tendency to produce suckers is
hereditary in corn. Other things being
equal, take the seed from suckerless
stalks.
