TO TEST sHELLED CORN.

Count out 100 to 200 kernels at random.
Fill the pan half full of sand or sawdust
and pat this down hard and evenly after
wetting It. Now spread out the counted
kernels a. evenly as possible and cover
with an inch Of sand or sswdust.
Moisten the top thoroughly and set
where the temperature will be from, 81
to 70 degrees for about two weeks. II
is best to cover the pan with paper or
another pan nntil the corn begins to
prick through as this will prevent dry
ing out.
Another method is to use pan with
several layers of heavy cloth-like can
ton flaunel-in the bottom, spread out
the corn, and cover with two or three
thicknesses of the Same kind of cloth.
Wet the cloths and cover with q pan.
After 10 or 10 days remove the top
cloth and count the kernels that have
sprouted strongly. Nine-tenths or more
OF the kernels should sprout vigorously.
II there are less, get better seed II pos
sible-this 10 preferable to planting more
thickly.

One leather neck recruit, during his
first visit to the tropics, was given q

fruit before. He was asked later, by
q comrade, how he liked bananas.
"Not 80 MUCH" answered the recruit.
"What's Of 'em Is an right, but they're

What he had been doing was eating

staIest Bread In World.

In the museum at Naples there 10
some bread which, so history tells uA
was baked in August, A. D. 70. In one
Of the curious ovens still to be seen at
Pompeii.
More than eighteen centuries, there
fore, have elapsed since it was drawn
"all hot" and indigesdble from the
oven. So 1t may claim to be the stal'
est bread in the world. You may see
It In q glass case on the upper floor OF
the museum.
In size and shape the loaves resens'
BILE the small cottage loaves OF Eng
land, but not in appearance, for they
are as black as charcoal, which, In
fact, they closely resemble. This was
not their original color, but they have
become carbonized.
When new they may have weighed
about couple Of pounds each, and
were raised with leaven, a fermented
dough which takes the place OF yeast
in the bread of Oriental countries at
the present time.

The dangers from typhoid fever are
far less In Maine than they were Q few
years ago. The State Department of
Health in . recent statement emphasizes
the progress which has been made and
urges that every effort be continued to
prevent the disease.
10 the year 1892 when Maine became q
part Of the registration area there were
2S6 deaths from typhoid fever. In 1915
there were only S3, the smallest number
in any OF twenty five years following the
admission Of the state to the registration
area. The typhoid death-rste or the
number Of deaths in each 10000 of the
population was 4.S2 In 1902 and 1.06 in
1915. In comparing the death-rste Of
the first five years OF the registration
period with the last Ave II 10 found that
the rate has decreased from 81 deaths
per 10000 to 90 deaths.
The frequent appearance Of typhoid,
however, requires deliberate effort to
stamp 1t ont. The sanitary handling OF
water, milk and other food stuffs 10
essential according to the State Depart
ment of Health. The weapon which has
become tremendously effective against
typhoid in the army and which has a.
most reduced the typhoid problem to
nothing 10 the new method of vaccine
tion" against typhoid. This "vsccina-
tion" 10 very simple procedure. The
question, "wbo should be vaccinatad
against typhoid" has recently been
answered by q noted physician In this
country. he says that all who como
under the following heads should be
vsccinated against typhoid so far as
possible because of their increased
chances for contracting the disease:
"Drummers and railroad men; oil
vacationists, especially campers and peo-
pie who travel much; physicians and
nurses; all people that live in towns and
small cities; people who live in the
country; people who eat at various
hotels and restaurants; people who have
no way Of knowing If their food 10 free

SeIhshness.

We are practical beings, each Of us
with limited functions and duties to
perform. Each Is bound to feel In.
tensely the Importance Of his own
duties and the significance Of the stu.
ations that call these forth. But this
feeling is in each Of us a vital secret,
for sympathy with which we vainly
look to others. The others are too
much absorbed In their own vital Sc
crets to take an interest In ours. Hence
the stupidity and injustice Of our opin.
ions, as far as they deal with the sig.
nif1cance Of allen lives. Hence the
falsity Of our judgments, 20 far ~
they presume to decide In an absolute
way on the value Of other persons con.
