TANGLED UP BY PHONE CALL
Colonel Gives Remarkable Denoue-
nent to His Story That Was
Interrupted by the Chief.


The colonel had only two types Of
stories, one concerning his amorous
adventures, the other his adventures
while tiger shooting. 1t was night in
the mess and the colonel, as was his
wont, began to tell an exciting story
Of an encounter with wounded
tigress which sprang at him before he
could reload and bore him TO the
ground. At the critical moment an
orderly entered to report that the G..
o. G. wished to speak to the colonel
on the telephone and the colonel was
compelled to break off abruptly.
He was absent for ten minutes and
on his return had forgotten which of
his favorite stories he had been tell
ing.
what happened, colonel?" asked
one of the guests. 'You were telling
us of your dangerous situation"
"Oh. kissed her." responded the
colonel airily. "She simply couldn't

Storing Seed Corn So It
Will Dry Out Thoroughly

When seed corn has been selected
in the field, the ears will contain a
large amount Of moisture, and if sub
jected to severe cold weather before
the ear dries out, termination will be
destroyed. The best way to handle
the seed is to take the ears that have
been selected to the barn or granary
and store them so they will dry out as
quickly as possible and not be sub
jected to severe cold weather. The
best method of storing this seed will
be so that each ear has free circula-
tion of air around it. This may be
done by tying with string or Irvine on
lath racks or by number of other
methods.
In the winter after the corn is
thoroughly dried out and the farmer
has more time. he should resort his
field-selected seed.

Practical Suggestions
on Storage Of Potatoes

The purpose of storage is to hold
potatoes in marketable condition un-
til they are in demand by the con-
sumner. In order that this be done.
potatoes. must be protected from ex-
IRENE heat and cold, from excessive
moisture, and from light. If once
frozen. potatoes are unfi. for market.
However. they should be stored at a
temperature sufficiently low to pre-
vent termination, and to hold fungus
growth In check. Potatoes are not as
perishaDle as apples. temperature
of 40 degrees F. will keep potatoes in
good condition, except that dry rot in
lection may occur. For this reason it
is best to store potatoes at tempera-
ture Of 35 or SO degrees F. The pres
ence Of light will seriously injure the
quality Of potatoes.

Worlds Wheat Acreage
Is Greater Than Needed

AT the present time the acreage Of
wheat in the world is greater than is
needed. Comparative prices show that
consumers desire some of the effort
now expended in wheat production
to be devoted to the production Of
other things. 1t is, therefore, not to
be expected that the profits from hold
ing wheat will be as high as usual
when the, purchasing power is so low.
At United States farm prices, wheat
has a purchasing power Of Ga. APP
parently the farmer who has storage
room and who can finance himself has
a good chance for profit from holding
wheat this year. If the price does not
rise by next fall. he can sell the old
crop and hold the new one next fall

Poetry interprets in two ways: It

Many People Still Plow
With Very Dull Shares

Many people are still blowing with
dull plowshares. increasing the draft
of the pillow sometimes as much as one
third. Better to have two sets Of
shares so one can be in use while the
other is being sharpened.
A rolling coulter set so it runs from
one-half to five-eighths inch from the
land side will make your pillow scour
better and will decrease the draft.
