SEED CORN SELECTION
TINE ALMOST HERE

Thousands of Minnesota corn
growers will soon be gathering seed
for next years crop, and by Seed Corn
Time, September 1920, the move
ment for seed selection should be
general in corn producing districts.
Farmers long ago found it was not
advisable to depend on seedmen for
corn planting stock. In northern
Minnesota only corn that natures
there is suitable for seed. The CEN
trail zone has a somewhat longer sea-
son and can grow larger corn than
the north and in in pinch can get
seed from outside states. Southern
Minnesota can grow corn almost as
large as corn raised in Iowa and Ne
'braska. But it has been the expert
ence of farmers in all three zones Of
the state that homegrown and adapt
ed varieties of seed corn give far bet
ter results than can be obtained from
imported seed. If the soil is cold and
wet at planting time, seed of strong
gecmination-the best seed obtain
able-is necessary if good crop is
to be had in the fall. Only by select
ing seed at the right time and TAX
ing good care of it after it has been
selected can the best results be OBJ
tanned.

BIENNIAL REPORT OF
PRISON WARDEN SHOWS
DECLINE IN NUMBERS
Net Yearly Profit From Prison
Labor for Each Inmate
Was $536.36

According to a recent bie6nial re-
port submitted by the warden of the
Minnesota state prison at Saltwater,
there is gradual decline in the num-
Der of inmates confined to the institu-
ton. On August 1, 1918, there were
ST. inmates, of whom III were wo-
men. On June 80, 1920, there were
S4S, nine of whom were women.
During the period covered by the
report, $188,077.33 have been paid
to inmates in salaries, Of which a
large portion has been sent to their
dependent families and relatives.
Night schools have been opened for
such as wish to attend under the d.
rection of the superintendent of
schools of the city of Saltwater. Pic
ture shows are given once week in
the auditorium, which all inmates in
good standing are permitted to at
tend. Religious services are held each
Sunday by chaplains, protestant and
catholic alternating.
The statement of income for prison
industries for the year ending June
30, 1920, shows gross sales Of S.
294, 7O3.84 and net income of 1885,
154.79. Assets of prison industries
total $5,049,9S5.04. The average cost
per inmate to run the institution for
1919 was $368.30, while the average
net earnings were $9O6.66, leaving a
net yearly profit from the labor of
each inmate of $538.36. In 1879
the expense per capita was $206.84,
or. about $3.50 less than in 1919,
while the per capita earnings were
only $685., or $440 less than in
1919. In 1879 there was deficit of
$1O7.99 per capita as against
profit of $53S.36 in 1919. 1t was not
until 1898 that the earnings offset
the expenses and with the exception
of the years 1900 and 1901 the earn
ings have been gradually gaining on
the expense. The year 1918 was the
most profitable, showing net earn
ings per capita of $566.14.
The average attendance at school
sessions in 1918 was 1879 and in 1919
it was 1852. 35.7 per cent of the
inmates were married, As per cent
single, At per cent divorced, per
cent separated but not divorced, and
6.5 per cent widows or widowers.
The occupation of laborer has the
highest representation in numbers,
1872 coming under that head; farmers
come next with 60; painters, 35;
cooks, 80; porters, %; walters, %;
teamsters, Fl, 80 were illiterate, 1877

Common garden sage brewed into a

While gray, faded hair is not sim

BY darEening your hair with Wyeth's

MANY LOAFERS FOUND
IN MINNESOTA FLOCKS

One~third to one-half of the fowls
in many Minnesota farm fiocks are
not paying for their keep. This is
the report brought back to University
Farm by Miss Annabelle Campbell,
poultry specialist in the office of ex-
tension work with women. The agri-
cultural extension division of the
state university is aiding state wide
poultry culling demonstration cam
paign launched by the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation, N. E. Chap
man. poultry extentionist from Uni
versity Farm, and C. E. Brown of the
Northwest School Of Agriculture at
CrOokston, are also in the field. Mr..
Chapman estimates that it is worth
$50 to every flock of 100 which is
culled, in the increased production
of eggs and the saving made in the
feed bill. The culling demonstration
will continue thru September and
October until the state is fairly we'll
"combed." The extensionists are
stimulating interest in poultry house
building and remodeling and find that
much work of this kind will be done
before the time comes to put the
f1ocks into winter quarters.

SEED CORN TIME NEARS
70 MINNESOTA FARMERS

Minnesota, once regarded as no.
corn state, now ranks eighth among
the states of the union in the number
of bushels of corn produced annually.
In the last decade the production of
corn in Minnesota has been doubled.
Striking progress like this is not
the result of chance. There is a rea-
son for 1t and in this case, the reason
is not hard to find.
Seed corn selection, as preached by
the Minnesota Agricultural College
and practiced by the progressive
farmers of Minnesota, has played a
large part in the wonderful corn
growing record made in the state.
Seed corn selection has helped to ex-
tend the corn belt from the south
east corner Of the state to the very
extreme northwest corner. 1t has
improved the quality of the corn as
we'll as the acre yield, and has aided
in building up the livestock industry
and in enhancing the fertility of the
soil. The clean cultivation required
by corn has helped to reduce the an
nual tax which weeds levy upon the
farmer
this year by the agricultural extern
sion division Of the state university
to seed corn time. September 1920.
Selected seed that has matured before
those dates is very likely to mature
before the corresponding dates in
1921. Thus the danger of loss by
frost is minimized. More than enough
corn ears for the requirements of
planting next year should be selected
well shaped ears of medium size
and good variety: ears with kernels
that are we'll denied and that fill all
the space on the cob and are we'll
shaped.
Minnesota can and will continue to
improve it's position among corn
growing states in the future as in the
past. Seed corn selection time is we'll

from it continue to gather force

SAYS JONES BILL
HITS JAPAN TRADE
BY Henry w. Kinney

BY Henry w. Kinney
Omitted Press Correspondent
Tokyo, August i. (By Mail.)-
While there is considerable indigna-
ton and CONSERVATION in shipping
circles here as a result of the passage
at Washington of the Jones merchant
marine bill, at least some japanese
are able to see Japan is not in posi-
ton to object with any great degree
Of justice, as long as she herself has
on her statute books laws which OPP
crate against foreigners.
Already there have been a number
of protests sent to the government by
various organizations of shipping
and business men, but no hint has yet
been given as to what form the cab
inets protest will take.
dn memorials forwarded to the gov
fernment the provisions Of the bill
that are most Objectionable to JAP
anese interests are: CD prohibition
of foreign ships from entering AIM
erican harbors where they engage
in competition with American ships
by means of rebates, etc.; (2) inclu-
sion of the Philippines with the scope
of the coastwise shipping law, thus
preventing foreign bottoms from en-
gaging in trade between the Philip
pines and the United States; 90
abolition Of special overland rates,
and "a imposition of customs dues
against foreign shipping.
Various predictions have been
made as to what the effect of the op-
Grafton of the bill will be on JAP
anese shipping. Thus it has been
claimed that it will effect eighty per
cent of the Japanese merchant ma
rine, and that, as consequence, the
big Nippen Yusen Kaishax and Osaka
Shosen Kaisha liners may be with
drawn from North American trade,
being placed on the South American
run instead in the hope Of develop
ing this business, which showed con-
siderable growth during war years,
but which has since then been dwin-
ding.
