placed that no two of them will touch.
This can be done by driving nails IN
boards and sticking the butts OF the
ears on these. Another way is to use
a double twine, threading the corn in
to that by crossing the string between
each ear. The important thing is to
insure good ventilation.
In nearly every case, where corn
was kept in a warm place and venu-

Do not fail to select your seed corn

THE TEST.

One evening when he had nothing
worse TO do an Eminently Practical
man invited an Eminent Thinker TO
dine with HIM at one Of those high.
class restaurants where the bin OF
fare is printed in elegant French and
the bills paid in profane English, And,
because he had the price. he ordered
a dinner that embraced indigestion in
all its subtlest forms.
When they had lighted their cigars
the Eminent Thinker began TO talk.

TO nicely just now Shakespeare must
have written each play and what his
real conception Of each character
must have been. With his intel,ec.
tual pump finally began to suck the
air and he had to stop for fresh

took a fresh grip on his cigar and
asked
Would il he worth while to write
plays like Shakespeare wrote?"

Shakespeare would not only make a
man immortal but would also make
him rich"
