Save the entire corn plant: the South needs the feed this year Stalks should be cut when the husks are turning yellow and the kernels are ndented in order to avoid loss in grain.
 Do not pull fodder since the amount of forage obtained in this way is not sufficient to pay for the cost of the operation. It is also bad practice be- cause pulling the fodder is usually done when corn is immature, thus cutting down the yield

BUILDING ROADS IN ALASKA

Alaska has been building roads since
1905. It has built $40 miles Of wagon
roads, $40 miles of winter sled roads
and 2,21O miles of trails. One OF these
roads was built for motorcar trafic,
but more than $50 trucks and passen-
ger cars were in use over them at tho
close Of the last fiscal year.
Much damage has been done to the
roads by heavy narrow-tired trucks.
and the board Of road commissioners
finds troubles Of maintenance with
them always. In addition, they found
1t necessary to build q nve-mile road
along hillside last summer by cover
ing the road bed with willow cordu-
roy and surfacing the corduroy with
gravel because the material underlying
the location consisted Of six feet Of
gravel on the bed rock, forty feet Of
clear ice on the gravel and two feet Of
moss and tundra on top.

ARRANGE FOR sELF.DEfENsE
scandinavian, Countries Find Them
selves in Precarioas Situation = u
#%te4rq Because of the War;,

The recent meeting of the three
kings of the Scandinavian countries,
SO unexpected and so unusual, was
practically meeting in self-defense,
forced on them by the precarious
situation in which the war has
placed their countries, writes Maurice
Fraocis Egan in the Yale Review.
Sweden had prided herself on her mil
itarism copied from the German sys-
TEN. Norway relied on It's coast line.
its shipping, it's fisheries and the firm
belief that it was practically inde-
pendent of the world, with an assured
future made by its own brains and Its
natural resources. Denmark, never
free from the fear Of the German Co
l0ssNs. believed that England and Rus
sia might save her from extinction at
the crucial moment; and the prepon-
derance of American opinion at the va
ri0us Hague conferences made her
hope that the moral force of our opin-
lon might prevent her national extinc-
ton. These hopes are gone. Den
mark fed England, she exported Ger
tain products to Germany. she had
made herself the foremost scientific
agricultural nation Of the world. she
was the freest, she was working out
the ideals of her national life without
desiring to acquire territory, or to in
fringe on the rights of others; but the
moment the United States entered the
war she and the other Scandinavian
nations gave up hope of any protec-
tion or help, and they have now deter
mined to band together in an indus
trial, economic union. The world has
deserted them and they have deter
mined to do their best to become in
dependent of the world. &c..
