Seed Corn Must Be
Moisture PROCEED

Low temperatures have kept
soft corn from spelling in Ohio
cribs; but Professor R c. Miller,
agricultural engineering depart
ment, Ohio State University, says
a lot of damage can be done un-
less some preparations are made to
keep soft corn from molding or
rotting when the temperature gets
to so degrees or higher, according
to word received from Vernon
Patterson, county agricultural
agent.
Samples of corn should be test
ed for moisture. Any corn that
runs 80 per cent or more moisture
is almost certain to spoil. Such
corn can be fed, sold for immedi,
ate feeding, dried, or made into
silage. Feeding is the most eco
nomical way of saving soft corn.
Corn with high moisture con
tent should be moved from its
winter storage to provide better
air circulation; and silk, huSks
and dirt should be sorted out
Farmers with large amounts o.
soft corn should make some pro
vision 10 dry it artificially, tn,
feed is worth too much to take ;
chance that natural drying vii
save it.

Henry L. Schmidt is a man who
won't retire.
Theoretically he retired two years
ago-after 30 years as electrician at
the Government Printing Office.
Actually he didn't at all. He
simply transferred his attention
from the GPO to Mount Alto Vet
erans' Hospital.
He is not patient, a staff men,
ber, nor even veteran. "Mr.
Smith," as most of his hospital
friends call him, is Mount Altos
self-apponinted good samaritan.
He is the patients mailman, gen.
eral purchasing agent and all
around handy man. He's better
known to the veterans than the
doctors themselves. And, at u, he's
never had a better time in his life.
Still Active at IL.
It don't know anything that has
ever given me as much pleasure as
what I do out here" he declared as
he walked briskiy through the cor
ridors on his daily rounds.
Anything can do for these boys
I am glad to do-and for the girls,
too," he added, entering a women's
ward. Mr. Schmidt has the official
freedom of the hospital and women
patients greet him as cheerfully as
the men.
