WON'T YOUR CORN

SPECIALIST SAYS

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 13.-When your
popcorn sputters, fizzles and finally
turns without popping the chances
are that it's too day, says A. F. Yeag-
er, horticulturist at the North Dakota
Agricultural college, who has been
making a scientific study Of the great
American indoor sport.
To pop properly the corn must have
cent and very few days in warm
a moisture will ldry it out SO that it
dry house will dry it out so that it
won't pop, he adds. Mr.. Yeager has
just finished experimenting in pop
ping various kinds of corn.
"Black Beauty is probably the best
popping corn obtainable, it was found.
This variety gives a large, pure white
swell somewhat resembling a rose in
shape, with "White Rice" a close Sec
ond. In popping three ounces samples
it was found that there is a great diff
ference in varities. "Tom Thum''
gave only two points of the popped
corn as opposed to five pints from the
same amount of "Black Beauty" All
the varities in this experiment had
the proper amount of moisture con-
tent.

selves in the old house, as the story
goes, one of the Robinson children was
awakened by heavy footsteps in the
room and, looking up, saw an aged
man with flowing white beard coming
toward the pallet where she was sleep
ing with her mother. The child's
screams awakened Mrs. Robinson, who
says she saw the old man as "plain as
could be-" When she arose straight
up in bed terrified the old man stood
still, and extended his arms, as If to
say, "Be not afraid. I come to do no
HARM" Then he pointed to stone
in the fireplace. So doing he vanished
into thin air.
Found the Gold.
Terrified beyond expression, Mrs.
Robinson kept to her bed the rest Of
the night, but next morning she hastily
summoned her husband, who had been
sleeping in an adjoining room. They
examined the stone to which the old
man pointed and found, after little
prying, that 1t was loose. When they
finally got 1t out of its place they
found behind it q small crevice in
which there was $567 in gold!
The facts as related here are being
set down for report to the American
Society for Psychical Research, which
will be asked to make an investiga-
ton of the replarkable story.

Menifee, Mo.-Thirty-two years ago
Silas Menifee, for whom this village
was named, passed out of this earthly
existence at the ripe old age of ninety
two years. He had led miserly, her
NIT life, and it was generally supposed
that. he had tidy sum of money hid
den Rway somewhere, as he was al
ways skeptical of banks. But dill
gent search by his relatives after
death revealed nothing of any value.
So confident were his relatives that
he had secreted money about the little
cottage that they even tapped the
walls and examined the legs of the
chairs. Nothing ever came Of the
search, however, and the place was
rented. Osborn Shropshire became the
first tenant and prospered so well
that he was accused of finding the
boarded wealth, but he swore up and
down he hadn't and as none of the
merchants about the village had ever
seen any money that looked suspi-
ciously old this notion was finally given
up.

About ten years after the death Of
Mr.. Menifee, known as "Old ST." the
Shropshire family began to be an

middle Of the night there would be

any source. Again they would hear
