Testing Seed Corn.

Farmers should not lose the lesson
of last spring with reference to the
Importance of testing seed corn.
Corn that to all outward appearances
was sound proved to be worthless for
seed. The farmer should never take
chance with seed corn, but should
thoroughly test every ear intended
for seed. The sand and sawdust tray
and the rag-doll testers give good re-
suits.

Does FARMING Pay In Adair
County?

Some farmers get tired of the old
home county, sell out and go either
west or South, hoping to better their
condition. Otter a mistake is made
and occasionly a farmer betters his
situation by seeking and locating in
new country. Most generally through,
the farmer who remains at home
comes out best in the end. To show
that good farmer can do as we'll here
as elsewhere, we relate the follow.
ing:
In 1917 Mr.. r. K. Young sold his
farm, lying two miles east of Colum-
bia, to Mr.. Tilden Wilcoxsin, of Green
county, for s8, 600 and little later Mr..
Young bought farm near West Point
Miss, and he is now on it, and ne
hope SHAT he is doing well. He
is good farmer and a hrSt-claSS
man. Mr.. Wilcoxsin went to work on
his farm here, and the first year he
made and sold and has yet to sell ST..
600 worth of stuff raised and grown on
it in little over twelve months
Furthermore, he has been offered foul
different times $4,000 for the farm he
paid $1,000 for, and he has answered
every time "My farm is not for sale. >

In the smothering heat or the cold,

And we welcome you into our fold.

With your cup on the ground at your

While coolies and bugs of species .un.

Danced fox trots over your hide.
Did you ever sleep in tent so small
That your head and your feet played

Then shake, old man, you're a pal OF

For you've followed the same old flag.
Did you ever stand in front line
trench,
With Fritzie few feet away
With ferries and Minnies a whistling

And gas coming over all dag?
With no Mans Land sea of steel
And tempest of bursting shell?
Then come in old man and toast your
shins,
For we're all Just back from hell.
