agony from some one mortally

was illumined with flashes and
shells. This was the picture for a

CURING AND STORING SEEDS
Soy Bean SpoiIs Rather Easily Unless
Properly Handled-Avold Heat
Ing and MoIdIng.

Soy bean seed spoils rather easily If
not properly handled, and care should
be used in curing and storing. After
threshing the beans should be watched
carefully to avoid heating and mold
ing. When good and dry there Is no
such danger. A good plan is to spread
ly after threshlng and shovel them
over from time to time until they are
thoroughly dry, then they may be safe
~ be put into socks or bins. The store
room should be dry and have n free
circulation of mir. Soy bean seed loses
vitality very rapidly and 1t is not safe
to hold seed for planting purposes for
more than two seasons.

he never, never wanted to get up in
