CAREFULLY LOOK OVER SEED
Corn Should Be Graded Before 1t Is
Shelied to Secure Uniformity in
Size and Shape.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Shelled corn is not easily graded
and all seed corn should therefore be
looked over carefully before the ears
are shelled. The grading is done to
secure uniformity of size and shape
in each lot of kernels, so that they will
be dropped evenly from the compliant
err when it is set for special lots of
seed.
If the seed ears vary as to size of
kernel they should be separated into
two or three grades, according to the
type of grain they bear. These grades
should be shelled separately-always
by hand and not by a mechanical she'll
Grand then tested in the corn plant
er. After finding the numbers on the
planter plates which drop the kernels
most uniformly, each lot should be
numbered with corresponding figures.
All this should be done when work is
slack in the winter and before the
| spring rush begins.
Be sure there is enough for two
years planting. You may need it your
self if the first planting is drowned
out and there never was q time when
there was not a demand for seed corn
known to be good.

The Krem,in,s Famous Cathedral

For centuries the car received the
crown from God and the fatherland"
in Uspenskiy cathedral, in Cathedral
square, on the summit Of the KremIin,
and in the Cathedral of Archangel
Michael are the tombs of many of the
emperors down to Peter the Great. In
the upper story of the treasury repose
the crowns of the early cars, several
thrones, war trophies and miscellan-
eous curiosities. In the arsenal is a
priceless collection of arms taken in
conflict.
Within the KremIin are grouped
some of the most beautiful buildings
of Russia. Within it's walls may be
read the architectural history of Rus

is the tower of Ivan, raised to q height
of 1913 feet and crowned by a gilt
dome.

MERE MATTER OF INACTIVITY
Convict Only Stated Truth When He
Said He Was "Doing Time" for
Not Building Church.

A group of foul conyicts were heard
the other day chatting about what they
were "in for" and each one in turn
told his experience.
The first had killed a. man, the sec
ond had put another mans anne to a
check, while the third n had gone
for a plurality Of spouses. The fourth
msn, however, did not seem inclined
to make any disclosures. He was a
misunderstanding man, who, al
though a professional gambler, was
called 'parson."
Come, parson, what brought you
he:e?"
Il don't care to say" said he.
"Out with it. Shoot anybody" asked
me-.
no, 1 didn't shoot anyone but since
you would like to know, l got time
because l didn't build a church,"
deep silence fell upon the group.
No such xcuse for penal servitude
had ever been heard before, and the
"parson" was asked to explain.
"WeIl, you see, a congregation raised
several thousand dollars to build a
church, and handed it over to me to
build, and l didn't build it. That's
all :"

BANK EXCHANGE IN ECUADOR
Rate Is Established by President,
Who Alone Is Empowered to
Make Such Ruling.

A recent law promulgated in EQa-
dor attempts to regulate the bank rate
Of exchange as regards drafts to and
from foreign countries. 1t provides
for an advisory board to the president,
presided over by the governor of
Guayas and composed of delegates
from the chambers of commerce of
Guayaquil and Quito, the Agricultural
association, each of the banks of issue,
and the national bank inspector. The
recommendations made by this board,
according to Commerce Reports, may
or may not be acted upon by the pres
ident, who alone is empowered to es-
tablish the legal rate of exchange (;
and any person selling at a higher
rate is liable to prosecution, with a
penalty of ten times the excess
charged.
Export duties, including all sur
charges, may be paid by checks or
sight drafts on foreign markets where
the goods are exported, taking as a
basis the value of the pound sterling
in the New York market. The drafts
mentioned must be sold by the customs
collectors at the prices paid for them.
The purchase of foreign drafts is
at present very materially restricted,
owing to the scarcity of funds in other
countries and 1t is generally believed
that the present law will increase the
difficulties.

HEALTH THAT MAKES WEALTH
Nervous Energy Which Enables One
to Think New Thoughts and lniti- q
ate New Plans Important.

Probably the majority of men do not
know what real health means. 1t
means more than the capacity to sit
up and eat, to walk, to board a car and
to bend over a desk. Real health
means more than the real ability to do
the same thing day after day. Real
health means a degree of stirring, nerF-
Gus energy that enables one to think
new thoughts, conceive new plans and
initiate new enterprises. Superb
bundant nervous energy is back of ex-
ceptional mental activity. 1t is the
basis of all those qualities which are
most essential in the struggle for sue
cess.
1t is not sufficient to have health
that will enable you to do a common
| place days work, Hugo Masters writes
in Physical Culture. The right kind
of health should give you the energy
with which to perform far more than
a days work, if necessary, eve from
a cumulative standpoint. 1t is com
monty the man with an unlimited ca
pacity for work who gets Oh. He is
able to work long hours without firing.
Successful men invariably enjoy the
possession of this degree of nervous
endurance or working endurance.
But it is not this that is most i'm
portant. The possession of energy is
essential, not so much for the sake of
the capacity for long hours of work,
but On account of the quality of work
which it enables one to perform.
Quality of effort is more important
than quantity of work and the greatest
value of unlimited energy lies in Civ
ing one the capacity for concentration,
the capacity for an intensity of effort
that is beyond the average man.

that you eventually fell in with a
party of Indians, and later on con-
nected up with a party of white
people who were travelling eastward.

About Cork.

A good, sound cork is something
worth taking care of and using prop
erly. Never "waggle" a cork out Of
a bottle. That is the best way to
break or at least spring a crack in
the cork. Remove the cork with a
turning or twisting movement, always
in one direction only, I. e., not a twist
one way and then in the opposite way.
Replace the cork with the same twist
as when removing it. Never lay a cork
down on a dirty, splashed table. If it
must be laid down, stand it on its
crown or top. For bottles containing
liquids in use, e. g., developers, ETC.,
attach the cork to the bottle thus:
Pass a crochet needle through the top
of the cork, and with its aid draw the
end of q piece of fine Irvine right
through the cork, and tie this end of
the string round the neck of the bottle,
so adjusting matters that the cork just
fails to reach the table ii. e., bottom
of the bottle) when the cork and
| string are free. This saves the cork
getting lost in the darkroom.
