Storage Is Important

Last year a large amount of corn in Windham County was put into the cribs containing lot of moisture, as was the case in many parts of New England. Although a germination test in the fall might have been satis- factory under these conditions, the germination tests in the spring were exceedingly poor.
 Last year there were only a few good sources of seed corn in Wind ham County The County Agent be- lieves that if such corn had been placed in a room where the heat from the stove could have been thoroughly dried before it had been placed in the crib, that the spring germination would have been very much higher.
 Farmers who have taken pains to select a nice lot of seed corn for next spring should bear in mind that the storage is of great importance, even though the seed corn is carefully se- lected. If 1t is not properly stored it will not show strong fertility next spring.
 It is of prime importance that the moisture be eliminated from the corn as soon as possible after picking This can usually be done by placing indi. vidual ears in racks, tying up in small bundles. or placing in shallow rack where plenty of air circulation is pos .sible and where the temperature is always above the freezing point.
 After the moisture is once driver out, the corn can be stored in fairly large bundles, in a dry place, without harm. The main thing to remember | that, before the corn IS subjected t freezing weather, large percentag' of the moisture it now contains mus | be eliminated.

The pupils of the Grammar grade
in st. Stanislaus Day School take
great delight in their weekly contests
in catechism. The object in view is
to stimulate the pupils in learning
the teachings of the Church and the
meaning and purpose of her beauti-
full ceremonies, also to encourage
them in the faithful practice of their
religion.
These contests have already
brought about a marked increase in
the. attendance at the Sunday ser
vices, and much greater interest is
taken in the study of Christian Doc
trine.

KILN SCHOOL FLOURISHING.
Cons solidated School Shows Increas
ed Attendance and the Work
Carried On There Is At
tracing Attention.

Recent exhibit of the work made
at the Hancock County Fair and
later at the Mississippi State Fair,
at Jackson, by the pupils Of the Kiln
Consolidated School has attracted
considerable attention. 1t will be
remembered the Kiln school exhibit
at the county fair carried off consid-
erably of the honors and was selec-
ted among the many to represent
Hancock at Jackson, and where at
the State fair won the first prize.
The attendance of the Kiln Con-
solidated School is far above the
average and the enrolment this ses-
sion exceeds all records. Prof. S.
P. Powell as superintendent is now
holding his third term, and under
his superintendency, with the assls-
tance of his corps of teachers, the
school and its work are forging
ahead. Kiln school exhibits at the
State Fair carried off many honors
and attracted the attention of vlsl-
tors more than in the ordinary sense
of the word. The curriculum en-
braces all studies in the primary up
to and including the higher studies
of high school work, and the domes-
tic science and manual training de-
partments are carrying out 100 per
cent. work.
In this connection it is interesting
to publish the names of the faculty
and those of the trustees as well
who have helped to bring about the
success of the school by their ad-
ministration and wise selection OF
| teachers.
