Josephine Phyllis, only daughter of
Demas Leatherman and Grace Mohler,
was born May 9th, 1916 in the home
where she passed away, August %,
1917, her age being 1 year, 2 months,
and q days, a short life for one
whose talents promised much. For
the last four weeks disease had stead
lily gained its hold upon her Bright
and winsome in her manner we knew
her only to love her. But the sweet
little voice is stilled and her body is
at rest. She leaves besides her pa
rents two brothers, Vernon and Lo-
we'll and many relatives and friends
If loving hearts and hands could have
stayed disease, she would be with us
today, well and strong, but clothed
in spotless white we laid her away in
all purity and innocence, knowing that
Jesus loves the little ones and has
said, FORBID them not, for of such is
the Kingdom of Heaven" Funeral
services were held from the church OF
God in Cotton, Sunday August 26th
conducted by Rev. Longnecker, buria
in the Heath cemetery.
Many were the expressions of sym
pathy conveyed to Mr. and Mrs. De
mas Leatherman in the loss of theil
little daughter. Friends were in at

ter, Cotton and Delta.

PICK YOUR SEED CORN
FROM STOCKS IN FIELD

Seed ears for next years crop if
selected in the field from standing corn
may be chosen more wisely, be stored
more carefully and will then produce
larger yield in return than if picked
from the shock or crib.
Corn yields have been increased 3
and one-quarter bushels to the acre
at the Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Station by selecting seed in the Fall
from standing corn. The best ears
grown under average conditions of
stand and fertility can be picked out
by such field selection. A good ear
chosen at husking time or from the
crib may owe it's excellence to espec-
tally fertile soil or to the fact that
only one stalk grew in the hill
An ear equally good but grown on
average soil and with three stalks in
hill will likely yield more when
planted the next year. Such an cal
may be marked in the field by a little
paint or string, and then separated
from the others at husking time.
Corn left in a crib over winter is
frequently injured by weather condi-
tions and terminates poorly the next
