PLANTING CORN THAT WILL

GROW
Connecticut's experience last
season shows tho value of testing
seed corn. Corn shows In that State
in 1917 were unique in that Bo-ear
organization test was made OF each
entry. These tests saved the State
thousands Of dollars, disclosing that
much OF the seed corn of the 1917
crop was very low In terminating
qualities, A campaign was inaugura-
ted for the testing OF all corn to be
used for 1918 crop. The work OF
many places was taken up through
the schools, and teachers and pupils
were taught to make tests. No ex.
cuse was left for any farmer TO plant
immature corn. In ore county 700
samples showed only 80 per cent ger
minating power. and in another coun
ty only 10 per cent Of the corn test
ed was fit for planting. The form
bureaus saved the day by carrying on
so vigorous a campaign that all corn
fit for planting was made available
tor home use or sale. In addition to
supplying the States need for good
seed corn. the farm bureaus were
able to get together six carloads OF
tested seed corn for shipment to
North Dakota and wisconsin, whore
also the situation was serious. This
corn brought the farmers Of connec-
tieut $4,000.

Why not turn the corner saloon into
a community playhouse when the law
effects the closing Of these gathering
places, asks Miss Hazel Mackaye, d.
rector Of the Department Of Pageantry
and Drama of the Rational Young Wo-
mems Christian Association?
Il went over. on the West Side Of
New York one night recently to attend
community drama meeting" Miss
MacKaye says In explaining her theo-
ry, land as I was riding along noticed
how many saloons there were-one on
every corner and another in the mid
die Of the block, it seemed, all just
blazing with lights. Those lights ought
not to 90 out with prohibition They
ought to shine for something wOrtl,
while to all Of the people, and what
better than community drama and
sings?" .--T ...l
Miss MacKaye feels that the war
has given great impetus to, popular
interest in drama and that through
pageantry aud drama a great deal In
the way of Americanizatlon can be ef-
fected --.-., Il.
Through the community center, II It
he in. a district populated largely OF
one foreign nationality. these people
could present pageants Of the life in
their mother countries translating
them into English, so that Americans
and also the younger English speaking
members Of their household could un-
derstand and appreciate their tradi-
tons. American art would be greatly
enriched thus through the drama OF
all OF the nations whose peoples have
settled in this country. On the other
hand American ideals. American his
tory and American festivals, even laws
such as child labor and minimum wage
could be interpreted to these people
thy means of pageantry. = %--
people have been learning not only
to work together, but to play togeth'
err" Miss MacKaye says, "particularly
since the war. when the people stood
together in drives and large patriotic
community entertainments. The OPP
portunity to build up a great commu
nifty organization Is now at hand, and
the time is ripe for It. Why not utilize
the corner saloon?"
