CORN FOR MONEY
nv M4DELI4, MINI
Merchants Accept Corn in Purchase Of
Merchandise and Settlement
of Accounts.

4 Madela, Mimi, Feb. b.. Merchants
Of Madelia and farmers of the sur
rounding country have been brought
together as tile result Of the aecep
lance Of corn as cash in the purchas,
OF merchandise or settlement of &C
counts.
In two-month period just ended
the merchants bought more than 49,,
600 bushels OF corn at approximately
30 cents bushel, or total OF $1,000
which was "new money" released in
the community and relived, the fnan-
cial pressure on merchants to GER
| tain extent.
One Of the direct results of the ex-
pertinent, which was copied in many
other towns as "The Madelia Plan,
was the establishment here few
weeks ago of the Community club,
organized to foster the fullest spirit Of
co cooperation between the town ard
country folk.
When the market for the farmers
crops, especially corn. started on the
downtrend and in some communities
corn was sold as fuel or burnt for
fuel BY the farmers, z. IL Lebak, a
Madelia business man, conceived the
idea Of accepting corn from the farm
ers at 10 cents bushels above the
local pmarket rice.
The rulers of the plan, which was re
eeiyed with enthusia nj by the farmers
when they saw there were no "strings"
attached 10 it, were as follows;
ANY farmer was allowed to bring
in 100 bushels Of corn TO any merchant
and receive his pay in merchandise or
pay on account.
Merchants cooperating agreed to
take a given amount Of corn on these
terms. but had the privilege Of taking
an additional quota from any farmer
owing them BILL
During the two-month period, the
merchants agreed to pya pre-
MUM of 10 cents bushel over the local
market, with minimum of 40 cents a
bushel on shelled corn and 81 cents
for corn on the ear, in trade or an ac-
the corn to be hauled TO the local
elevators and weighed in, graded and
turned over to the representatives of
the merchants, who in turn issued a
check, stating what store
it was drawn on and in what amount.
The merchants were well satisfied
with the results. The actual percent
age of loss by this system of corn buy |
ing was 26.7 per cent, as the merchants |
necessarily had 90 market the corn
and accept the consequent loss due TO
The premium they gave the farmers.

During the spring and early sum.
mer months when eggs are most
abundant and lowest in price, they
are also best in quality, and this is
the time when they should be pre-
served Only good fresh eggs
should be selected for preservation,
as small weak-shelled, cracked, or
dirty eggs may not keep well. Infer
tile eggs will keep better than fer
tile eggs. The surplus eggs from
each days gathering can be added TO
the water-glass while they are fresh,
as they need not be added at one
time.
After being in the solution for
some time the shell becomes smooth,
as the pores are filed with the
silicate. When these eggs are boil
ed they should be punctured with a
pin at the blunt end to prevent them
from breaking. In all cases they
should be washed before using.
Eggs should be stored in a c,ol
place, preferably the cellar, and the
tops of the eggs should be covered
with two or three inches of tie
liquid. Fresh water should be added
to replace that lost by evaporation.

HOW TO HAVE EGGS THE YEAR
AROUND

Eggs are excellent food for both
old and young. They contain sub
stances which build muscle and It's
sue and produce growth. They are
good substitute for meat, as they
contain practically the same sub
stances as those contained in mea..
When properly cooked, eggs are more
easily digested than meat. They
should be cooked slowly. as when
cooked at n high temperature thew
become tough and almost indigesti.
bic.
Because eggs are such valuable
food they should be used frequently
in the diet the whole year around.
The scarcity and high price of eggs
in the winter season may seem to be
an obstacle in this matter, but by
preserving eggs when plentiful to be
used when scarce, this difficulty may
be overcome.
TTOUdbiy TIE btst way W pTtscTNt
eggs is by the water-glass meth
cd. Water-glass can be bought in
the syrup or powdered form at any
drug store. The power, when dis
solved according to directions on the
package, is more reliable than the
liquid form. Only enough should be
purchased to preserve the eggs you
expect to put down this year. The
proper proportions for mixing are
part water-glass (liquid) to 9 parts
boiled water which has been allowed
to cool. Stir the MIXTURE thoroly
and put into perfectly clean earth
enware crock. galvanized or wooden
pail. The solution is now ready to
receive the eggs. The following
gives the sizes of jars, with approxi-
mate capacity for eggs and the
amount Of water-glass solution re.

FARMER WAS RIGHT

Your county agent was tremend'
ously interested in short editorial
in a late number Of the Southern Ag.
riculturist, which proves conclusively
that experience is safer guide than
science. The editorial deals with the
old controversy about the feeding
value of yellow and white corn. The
county agent is giving il here for the
benefit of his readers who remember
the old controversy:
We are just at the beginning of
agricultural knowledge. just starting
to find out things about our work
and the processes Of nature with
which II goes. As the years go on,
farming is going to become not only
a more profitable occupation, but a
more interesting and fascinating oc-
cupation, and one Of constantly in
creasing possibilities.
Just to illustrate: Old farmers
used to say that yellow corn was
stronger" than white corn. You
have probably heard them. Came
along the chemist and found the com.
position of the white and yellow
practically the same. The old farm.
ers were mistaken, it seemed. Re-
cent Investigations, however, have
shown a difference. The yellow corn
has more vitamines in it. Analysis
and feeding experiments have agreed
in demonstrating its superiority in
this respect. II the animals are get
ting plenty of green stuff, the white
corn is as good as the yellow, for
from the green stuff the stock get all
the vitamines they need. If corn
alone is being fed, as it should not
be, the yellow corn is superior. So
once again old experience is checked
up against modern science, and the
conclusions of both justified even
while the limitations of each are
made plain.
The man who finds nothing to in
terest or intrigue him in farming is
a man who does not know much about
farming

has run his scissors around it and is
giving it below:
