Fou. Thousand Bushels Rejected From
10000 In One Section-Egg Crates
With StraWboard Cells
Used for Testing.

No, not a munition factory. Those
cylindrical objects lying in orderly
rows on shelves r not shrapnel, but
ears of corn. The slender filaments
that are being sorted so carefully are
not fuses, but sprouts. The girls so
busily at work before bench or box
are not handling p~icrates, but seed
corn.
The whole shows graphically how
one agent of the United States de-
partment of agriculture and the Mis-
souri, Agricultural college went about
making sure that the 1918 corn crop
would not fail the cause of world free
dom for lack of viable seed. It is
representative of what many county
agents, the country over, r doing
now, wherever occasion arises, to make
sure that the 1919 crop will not fail
for a like reason.
What One County Saved.
These pictures show the central test
ing station established in February,
1918, by the county agent of Living
ston county, Missouri. In this, and In
eight local testing stations scattered
about the county, 10,951 bushels Of
corr were "ear tested" before corn
planting time came last spring. OF this
corr more than 1000 bushels were
thrown out as being unfit for planting
which means that 1000 bushels Of
corn were saved for feed. Otherwise,
it would have rotted in the ground,
making an equivalent %replanting neces-
sary. More than 5000 bushels were
certified as being sure to give a salts
factory percentage of termination.
In this instance egg crates, with
their little straw-board cells. were used
for testing-a somewhat novel method
that has found favor in some localities.
The kernels to be tested are planted in
the p~asteboard cells, six grains from
an ear, and a cell to each ear. After
sufficient time for termination, the
crates are opened and the ears are
saved for seed or discarded, according
to the percentage Of termination
shown by the corresponding kernels.
Each ear has a number corresponding
to that of the cell in which the sample
kernels taken from 1t are put for ger
mination, SO it Is easy to make the
final sorting.
Results Shown In Field.
Over a thousand farmers brought
their seed corr to one or another Of
the nine testing stations established
in Livingston county last year, and
practically every field planted with
corn thus tested showed a strong
stand.
The corn saved to the country and
the world last summer through such
testing stations as these will total mill
lions or bushels. More important, per-

 PACIFIC NATIVES

Papeete, Island of Tahiti, Jan. 1e- Correspondence of the Associated Press) s)-The Paumotu Islands, some times called "gold mine" of the east ern Pacific, presents weird and pie turesque scene during the season for pearl fishing. From August on, come the natives from the surrounding is lands to dive for pearls in the calm waters of the lagoon thrown open for the purpose Within the narrow strip of sand which surrounds the fishing ground are huddled three thousand or more, in a mushroom city, sheltered beneath corrugated iron or matched roof huts. It is a motiy company. There is the Paumotu diver, a bronzed sea-god, who, with his an- cestors, have been for ages, masters of the deep and conquerors of the shark in his own native element. He is the center of solicitude for the buyer and trader. He is the tndis- pensable object of the moving picture man who has hastily built his thea tre of corrugated iron where he dis penses amusement at metropolitan prieo os. It is the diver who will spend his earnings riding in the wheezy mo- | tor car which. the owner operates along a half mile of hard beach, Il

HONOLULU'S QUEEN.
Lydia Kameharneha, better known

Lydia KamehaTneha, better known as Jueen Ldliuokalani, the last native ruler of Hawaii, was proclaimed queen in January, 1891, and two years later, on Jan. 16, 1893, she was dethroned. She was born in 1888, and succeeded her brother, King Ka- lakanua, on the throne. Although she had taken for spouse an Aneri- can, John O. Dominis, of Boston, she was not friendly toward Americans, and strongly opposed to the Reform party, which had been successful in the revolution of 1887. The Queens husband died a few months after she gained the throne, and she at once set about to abolish the liberal con stitution of 1887 and to restore the old despotie rule of absolute mon archy. She proclaimed new con stitutfon, greatly increasing her pow CTS, and on the following day she was dethroned by committee of safety, which had been formed in anticipa- tion of her move A republic was formed, but in 1895 she fomented a rebellion, which failed, and she was sentenced to modified imprisonment for five years. Upon renouneing her throne, however, she was released She died several years ago.

S4OO,OOO,OOO TO FEED EUROPEANS Will Take That Amount for Belgium, Poland and
 Armenia.

Paris, Jan 16.---The supreme eoun- Gil of supply and relief, winch has been engaged for the last three days in considering the situation of the liberated countries stretching from Belgium to Poland and Armenia, has concluded that the minimum 5Cm necessary to feed these peoples until next summer is $4O0, 1000 GOO. The eoun- eiI has asked the treasury depart ments of the associated governments to determine how the money can oe provided.
 The Allied governments iR EaFepe' it is said. have agreed to undertake their fu9I responsibilities in the ma1- ter.
 Considerable difficulty, however, arises from the fact hat the 0Hlk ol the foeds&Hffs must come from the United States and while the Atlleo governments can pay for transport2- tion and caR furnish clothing ana ! other services. the payments made i'll the United States will greatly exceed s1O0,O0O eco, which President Wilson has asked congress to appropriate. Herbert c. Hoover, director general of international relief, has proposed that q. commission representing the four great powers bs established m each of the countries to be relieves under the general term of relief te liberated countries"
 All the countries which have set uI democratic governments are strus Eiing to maintain order and to estap fish themselves permanently. Any failure by the United States to sup port these issues, the members of th' commission are said to believe, vii bring ruin in Europe beyond any thing since the Middle Ages.
 It is understood that the American war department is cooperating Wltl the food administration in send4nt foodstuffs into various Mediterranean ports, but the distribution of thes ! szsps4yli-s is necessarily being held u until fan-aciaI matters can be ar ranged. The money asked from con gress, it is declared, is solely fer tn purpose of supporting the ltberate countries and will not be used for re lief in Germany.

TODAY'S ANNIVERSARY.

The first man to discover the ap- Plicability of electricity to practical uses was Benjamin Franklin, who was born in Boston 213 years ago to- morrow. Many other innovations were also due to this great scholar and scientist. He established the first circulat'ng library in PhiladeI- phia, in 172S. Five years later he organized the first fire company on this side of the Atlantic In 1742 ne invented the first stove used in America. The following year he founded the University of Pennsyl- vania. He was also the founder of the American Philosophical Society. His kite demonstration, to prove that lightning is electricity, was made in 1752. The American postal system was largely based on Franklin's ideas and he was the first American diplo- mat. The first American hospital was also numbered among his innu- merable benefactions to mankind.

BRIDGEPORT HIGH
 TOPLAY ANS0NIA
Local Team Expects No Diff culty in Trimming An
 sonia Lads.

The Bridgeport High school basket ball team will travel to Ansonia to- night where they will play the Ansonia high. Tine local team has yet to lose a game this season and they do not fear the Ansonia crowd much. The team will be led by Johnny MiaCo and will be minus the services of Benny Blade, the star right forward. Benny struck his head on the floor in last weeks game and has been sick since. It is expected though that he will be able to play Saturday against the New Haven crew. The other players who will accompany the team will be Rlc- cio who with Miacco will play for ward positions and Murphy center with Hickey and Maher playing guard.
 The local team has won eight straight so far and after they get through with. the Ansonia bunch they will stack up against the New Haven High, Saturday.
 Outside of the Yonker's game this will be the first tough game for the local team this season and as me New Haven lads boast of a fast team | it is expected that B. H. s. will have to go some to keep up their record.

bers of the Virginia State senate put
teeth into the anti trust law at the

action followed the contention of
Senator G.. Walter Mapp that an ef-
fort was being made by indirection
to render the act of little or no ac-
count.
For the first offense the convicted
man will be fined not to exceed ST.
600 or sent to Jail not to exceed IL
months or both. For the second Of
tense he will be fined not less than
81 1000 or more than $4,000 and jail

STILL AND LIQUOR
SEIZED NEAR KINADRS

Sheriff Blease and Deputies Dor
roh and Taylor seized still in the
house of Calvin Jeter near Gary's
Sunday morning. Jeter was not at
home but had gone on to Laurens
county to singing convention and
took some of the liquor that he had
distilled in his home along with him.
Rural Policeman Abrams of Laurens
county joined the sheriff at Gold
vile.
Jeter was arrested and brought to
jail. The car in which he was riding
was also seized by the sheriff. Under
the State law it is against the law to
have unlawful liquors in an automo-
bile and the same is subject to seiz-
Iure. The federal government also
seizes vehicles and autos or any other
mode of conveyances in which con-
traband liquors are being transport
ed.
Solicitor Blackwell over phone on
Monday instructed the sheriff to
prosecute in the State courts all
parties charged with violation of the
prohibition laws in which still was
found, even though they had been
prosecuted by the federal authorities
and to leave it with the federal au-
thorities as to whether or not they
wanted to prosecute those in which
the State had issued warrants. This
means that those violating the pro-
hibition laws wherein a still is found
will be prosecuted in both the State
and the United States courts.

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS


The collection on subscription ac-
counts was very good last week, and
as the time for renewing at the old
price did not close until Monday,
September 1, which was only yester-
day, we have not had time to correct
the list. There may be some mis-
takes, so we are going to send the
paper for the two issues this week
to the old list, and would ask all the
subscribers to examine the lables on
their papers, and if the correct date
is not given to be kind enough to call
the matter to our attention this week
that no name may be taken off
where payment has been made. The
list has not been corrected since last
Tuesday for all payments made that
day and prior. We are going to cor
rect again as through Tuesday and
the Friday paper will show credits
through Tuesday of this week and for
that reason we are sending both is
sues this week to the old list. There
will be some to come off Unless pay
merit is made this week, and we do
not want to take off any name where
payment has been made. All who
have not paid through September 1st
will be taken off. This is final and
after this date all subscriptions will
be at $500 the year and must be
paid in advance. We regret to lose
any, but can't help it. The amount
is small and we must have the money
as we go along.
