SHUCK PROTECTION FOR CORN
May Reduce Damage to Grain by improving Covering.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture.)
 Most corn growers fail to realize that by improving the shuck covering on their corn by selection they may reduce the amount of damage done to the grain. Growers generally con sider nothing but the ears and kernels when selecting seed. In weevil-infest- ed sections in particular, variation in the damage of ears is frequently ob- served, but if the matter ic considered the cause is usually attributed to va- riation in the hardness of the grain. Weeviis attack corn of all degrees of hardness, and their progress in con- suming the hard corn is only slower than that in the soft. Some observers have concluded that since weevils are able to eat the hardest corn, they would also cut their way through the most resistant shucks in order to feed upon the grain, if sufficiently urged by hunger. Others have observed that earworms may cut holes through a large percentage of the protecting shucks and that weevils will enter through these holes, and they have concluded from this that shuck cover Ing cannot be made a practicable means of protection. Then, too, there is a sentiment on the part of some against large amount of shuck.

and for the production of oil and meal have brought about greatly increased prices. The seed of the best varieties of soy beans is selling for S250 to $4 per bushel of 60 pounds. As the mer- its of the crop are better appreciated, the demand is not likely to diminish. Utilizing soy-bean seed as feed is dis tinctly profitable. In addition to the value of the seed, the benefit to the land on which the beans have been grown and the use of the thrashed vines as source of feed must be talk en into consideration.
 The average yields of soy-bcan seed to the acre in various sections of the United States range from about 15 bushels in the northern states to about 9 bushels in the northern part of the cotton belt. The average yield in east ern North Carolina, the largest seed producing section in the country, is about 25 bushels, although many fields produce 35 bush9ls or more to the acre. Maximum yields of 50 bushels'to the acre have been reported from North Carolina and Tennessee.

TO INCREASE FARM PROFITS
Iowa County Agent Tells Why Some Farms Are Made More Profit
 able Than Others.

fPrepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture.)
 In a recent report to the department, w. A. Dickinson, county agent, Floyd county, Iowa, attempts to show why some farms are more profitable than others. Owing to the fact that farm labor has been exceedingly scarce in some districts during the present sea- son, many operators have attempted to increase the efficiency of their man labor as much as possible. They have done this by using larger machin- cry and more horse power. They have also tried to secure more even dis fribution of labor throughout the year by growing variety of crops and keeping live stock. In some cases a portion of the crop has been harvested by the live stock. They have also kept close tab on the work that required immediate attention, and they have avoided work which could be post ponrd while more productive work re
 nmediate attention.

Horses and Mules for Sale

To the Farmers of Arkansas:
 1 have been advised by Capt. Harry E. Hoy of the Q. M. Corps located at the Remount Station at Camp Pike, that the entire lot of horses and mules now quar- tered at that place and in his charge will be sold at anction in the immediate future. There are about 5000 head. all good ani mals, selected by the Govern ment for army use. Since they are no longer needed for that purpose the War Department is dlsposing of them by public sale The sales will be held on differ ent dates for the convenience of the public and the farmers of Ar kansas are invited to attend these sales and bid on such ani> mals as they may desire. The first sale dates announced are as follows:
 On January 7th, 45O mules and 150 horses; January IA, 45O mules and 150 horses; January 21, 450 mules and 150 horses: January 2S, 450 mules and 150 horses.
 The sale begins promptly at 9 o'clock, a. Ill. Circulars tain ing full particulars of the sale can be had by writing to Captain Harry E. Hoy, Q. M. Corps, AUX Hilary Remount Depot 317, Camp Pike, Arkansas.
 This stock will be offered for sale at auction and sold to the highest bidder so that any farm CT who desires to purchase one or more of horses or mules can have full opportunity to do so. In the sale of these animals it is quite likely that splendid bar gains can be had and the farm CTS of Arkansas are invited to be present on the sale dates and bid on them. Other sale dates will be announced later. but they will most likely occur once a week until the entire lot is sold

Reducing Marketing Cost By Advertis-

There is hardly a farmer who cannot do advertising to advan- tage. One of the greatest of farm problems is that of selling what is grown. A man may grow a big crop but unless he can dis pose of it at profit, he would be better off to have grown no crop at all.
 Advertising may be used to advantage in selling crops when they are so large that they will not be taken by local de-

dents that have occurred in the city
in the last year. due to the careless
handling Of gasoline in kindling fires

the albuquerque fire department. has
sent in the following: ITO tamper
with gasoline is to flrt with death.
TO hold flame near an open can of
gasoline is to take a daredevil chance
on your life with the odds against
you. Gasoline is as certain to eX-
plode as nitroGlyceiln and as dan
gerous as dynamite A five gallon
can of gasoline weighs about 40
pounds. it has the explosive power
of AS pounds of dynamite and il
will generate 5000 cubic feet Of dead
~ gas. The next time you have
charge of a can, rermeber this. and
YOU will regard this deceptive liquid
with more consideration"
If You have handled gasoline care
lessly in the past without injury,
count yourself lucky and quit: re-
solve never to do it again, only the
ignorant and foolish continue to take
chances with gasoline. You would
