Profit in First-CIass Seed Corn.
National Crop Improvement Service

National Crop Improvement Serylce.l
I have been able to raise 80 bushels
of choice seed corn on an acre seed
plot. For this seed received an
average of $3.50 per bushel, which
makes return of $105 for this seed
alone, in addition to 40 or 5O-odd
bushels left for feeding purposes.
I have black loan soil that has al
ways been in the highest state Of
fertility. apply heavy coat of stable
manure in the fall, plow the field early
in the spring, disk four times and har-
row until firm seed bed is obtained
For seed, l used eighteen of the
choicest, highest testing seed ears
which I could secure
On May 21st I planted, checking
corn into hills forty-two inches each
way. At this time I drilled in $50
pounds per acre of a high-grade fer
tilizer. The corn was given the very
best of care, and as a result of this
intensive cultivation and the balanced
plant-food ration, it matured by the
18th Of Septemb Der, at which time I
picked the seed corn and put it on
drying racks in heated drying house
so as to be in first-classed condition
for buyers.-Heiron ]. Black, Burling.

CAN fruit WITHOUT SUGAR

Fruit for use in pie or salads or
as stewed fruit can be put up or can
ned without the use of sugar at all,
according to the canning specialists
of the Department. They, therefore,
advise those who, because of the high
price of sugar, have been thinking of
reducing the amount of fruit thew
put up, to can as much of their SUR
plus as possible by the use of boiling
water when sugar syrup is beyond
their means. Any fruit, they say,
may be successfully sterilized and
retained in the pack by simply ad-
ding boiling water instead of the hot
syrup. The use of sugar, of course,
is desirable in the canning of all
kinds of fruits and makes better
and eady-sweetened product. More
over, most of the fruits when CANNED
in water alone do not retain their
natural flavor, texture and color as
we'll as fruit put up in syrup. Fruit
canned without sugar to be used for
sauces or deserts must be sweetened.
Can the product the same day it is
plced. Gull, stem, or seed, and clean
the fruit by placing it in a strainer
and pouring water over it until it is
clean. Pack the product thoroughly
in glass jars or tin cans until they
are full; use the handle of a table,
spoon, wooden ladle, or table knife
for packing purposes. Pour over the
fruit boiling water from a kettle,
place rubbers and caps in position
partially seal if using glass jars seal
completely, if using tin cans. Place
the containers in sterilizing vat
such as a wash boiler with a false
bottom, or other receptacle improvis-
ed for the purpose. If using a hot
water bath outfit, for process for 80
minutes; count time after the water
has reached the boiling point; the
water must cover the highest jar in
container. After sterilizing remove
packs, seal. glass jars, wrap in paper
to prevent bleaching and store in
dry, cool place.
If you are canning in tin cans it
will improve the product to plunge
the cans quickly into water immedi-
ately after sterilization. When using
steam pressure Gamer instead of
hot water bath, sterilize, for 10 min
utes with five pounds of steam pres
sure. Never allow the pressure to go
over 10. pounds.

SHEEP CAN BE RAISED
AT a LARGE PROFIT

d.
In an effort to interest farmers i'm
this territory in the raising of more
sheep, not only because Of the ire
mendous rise in the price$of mutton
but because of the pressing need for
more wool to be used in the manu-
facture Of blankets and clothing fof
our soldiers, the Minnesota State
Fair, which is to be held Sept. to
8, is offering liberal premiums to
owners of pure bred sheep of the
leading breeds.
So much. wool is to be required in
the making of uniforms, socks, over
coats, blankets and other parts of
the army equipment, despite the fact
that the number of sheep in this
country steadily decreased since 1909
that it is feared wool famine will
result. Sheep production in many
of the warning nations which have
been supplying this country with
wool, has fallen off to such an ex-
tent that it is difficult to buy wool
abroad. 1t was stated by noted
authority recently that sheep pro-
duction in France has decreased
nearly forty per cent since the open
ing of the war.
Although it is not generally known
census figures show that the average
sheep has increased in value over
forty per cent in the last year. On
January l, 1916, the average value
of sheep in this country was $5.17.
On january, 1917 the average val
ue of sheep had scared to STA.
Sheep values are still on the jump,
and it is not known how far they
will go. Live sheep are bringing
from twelve to thirteen cents
pound, and wool of good quality is
selling for over fifty cents a pound.
AS food training camp in the
voluntary service of the government,
the Minnesota State Fair is attempt
ing to assist in overcoming this cri-
sis by inducing leading breeders of
sheep to bring their finest animals
for private sale to farmers in this
territory. A. special appeal has
been issued to local breeders. Sheep
specialists believe that sheep can be
grown at big profit in this part
Of the country, and every attempt
will be made by the fair to induce
local farmers to purchase breeding
stock. The Department of Agricul-
ture at Washington, mindful Of the
need for more sheep approves of the
action of the fair.
The Minnesota State Fair is offer
ing $3.50 in premiums for sheep.
The following breeds are recognized:
Merino, Rambouillet, Southdown,
Shropshire, Oxford Down, Hampshire
Dorse, leicester, Cheviot, Lincoln,
Cotswold. Premiums offered for wool
aggregate 5000. A premium list may
be obtained by addressing Thomas H.

noxious character of the boards of
barley during harvesting and subse-

been largely removed since the intro

CHEAPER AND BETTER.

Manufacturers and shippers who use boxes to any great extent will be interested in an experiment recently conducted by engineers of the Forest Products Laboratory at Madison. Wis. It was there demonstrated that a much stronger box than the type ordinarily used can be made with less material by increasing the number Of nails and by properly proportion ing tho thickness of the sides and ends.
 A less that reaotles many millions of, dollars annually is caused by damage to goods in transit, 7 largely because of faulty containers. The wood experts of the Forest Service be- lieve that this loss can be decidedly decreased by better construction of the boxes in which goods are shipped.
 Changes in the design of boxes which were recommended as 3 result of the tests at the Laboratory have been adopted by several associations. SSseO@AAS - recent. meeting of the Gamers Asso- ciation. of what has been done by the Forest Service along these lines aroused considerable interest among the manufacturers. Many of these men are said to have expressed their intention of carrying out the sug- gestions of the Laboratory experts.
 These are the little things in lifs that count. If they are money savers they are more. than worthy ot consideration. Individuals as well ai large groups of manufacturers can take heed to the story of the boxes The government annually spends huge sums of money in experiments de signed to help the people Of the nation. It is a form of help that must not be overlooked.

The Handicap of Beauty. (NewS York Tribune,

Poor Miss Jane Cowl, laboring through a successful theatrical season In the face of as great a handicap of beauty as falls to the lot of few ac- tresses, is pathetica1ly Respondent about such charms. They never carry anybody far. Beauty helps to Set an opening, but there 1t leaves you stranded. Moreover, it tempts to lax- mess. Double effort and double am- bition are needed to overcome it. Bet ter far be plain and condenined to earn public favor as you march along.
 Yet, having jeered appropriately, we turn to wonder If there Is not a handsome clement of truth in Miss Cowl's philosophy. The male animal is unQuestionably susceptible. But to what? h 1t to beauty, sheer beauty or perhaps to something a little more worth while and great deal more within the achievement of most wo- men? Wbether you are discussing ac- tresses, waitresses or stenographers or sweethearts or wives is it perfect contours and textures that count or something else again, something that might be conveniently assembled un. der the title of personality and be briefly rated as charm?
 1ue 00ArCu1H8, CONSCIENTIOUS 1nveS- tigation b reminded of the startling diversity of taste among males by which . -delectably meagrc maiden il rated . distressing beanpole by parti. sans of embonpoint. And what 1, less invigoratfng to the student o1 admirable bones than the curves SC often passing current under the adjec. tive 'shandsome''? The intensely scrubbed. supplemented maiden, com. monly denominated wholesome" ha. a wide following. Yet so has the darI lady. redolent of mystery as we'll al the bathtub. Finally, we seem to re call a sentiment amounting almost tt disfavor directed by youth toward those too outstanding beauties who were the object of many admirine eyes and rendered ones awkwardnes. extra-conspicuous. One might danes with such a houri for the thrill of it For steady. diet, for the calm huncl which results in friendship and mar. riage, males. young as old, seem te pick on a different plan.
