Selecting Seed Corn

farm was looked upon somewhat fad. Sentiment
though. has changed until today have come to
consider the field selection Of seed corn as a thor

This year, with selling at record prices, the
proper selection and care OF the seed cannot be TOO
strongly stressed. No farmer afford to risk
weakening the terminating power Of his seed corn
by leaving il in the field until it is impaired by the
freezes. Nor could he afford to make selection from
the crib, It possible to take the corn through
the winter in good shape. We want to know some
thing about the breeding of the animal, what kind
of parents it has, and in just the way should

Generally choice is best made from a medium

height, stalk having good brace root growth with
thick heavy internodes below the ear, and the ear
should be borne at about medium height. The shank

We aware that there is a feeling of unrest

VIII HOES Win The War?

The world is short of meat and fats No other
animal can be made to produce like the hog. We
must not underestimate the influence the hog will
have on the One Of the government officials
says:
"rhe one most important thing in winning
the war is the production of pork. Our
need Of hogs is far greater than that Of men,
munitions or money"
What responsibility the swine growers have
We must produce 10000, 600 more hogs next year
than did this, and it is up to the men who know
how to do it to produce them.
Such statement should bring home to us the
seriousness Of the condition. Think of the hog being
compared with men, money and munitions in this
great conflict

need and he will do it again. II hogs are the urgent

RIG AIR SHIP RETURNS WILL NOT, SEIZE FOODS
Report That The Government VIII
Seize Canned Foods Emphatlcally
Denied by Officials.

Blacksburg, Va, Sept 26.--Ihere Is
absolutely no truth in a widely clrcu.
lated statement that the Government
expects to take food supplies from
any family. The Food Admlnlstra-
ticn and the u. S. Department OF
Agriculture join with the Extension
Division of the Virginia Polytechnic
Institute in an emphatic denial of the
report that the Government intends
to take from every FAMILY all canned
goods put up in excess Of 100 quarts.
This is only one Of the variations
Cf the rumor. Another statement IS
that the Government has been urging
the canning, drying. and preserving of
fruits and vegetables. so that they
will be in convenient form for the
Government to handle and transport
when it takes them away from the
people. Further elaboration Is that
these goods are to be taken away
from the American homes and ship
ped to England.
The circulation of this report seems
to he part of deliberate propa-
ganda on the part Of those unirend-
w to the Government and is being
used in a most unscrupulouS manner,
Instances are known though possibly
not in Virginia. where persons claim
ing to be representatives Of the U. ).
Department have called at homes in
the country and carried off canned
goods. leaving the family a small
quantity. These people are simply
takers and any one receiving visit
form them should at once summon
as officer of the law.
The Extension Division wishes to
state very positively that no such
course has ever been contemplated by
the National or State Government.
ON the contrary. housewives are
urged to csn and preserve, especially
IT thi, time. all fruit and vegetables
possible in order that the households
themselves may have a cheap and
plentiful supply of food.
