* Artiele 28.-A Method For The Im- *
provement of Corn. *
* *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The proper observance of a few im
portant factors relating te the breed
lIng of corn will result in securing in
crieased yields of a better grade of
corn then the original seed. This gain
can be easily secured if one will de
vot,e a little time and patience In
makMng the proper start in the, right
The first thing to. be done in the
breeding of corn is to go through a
Teld before the ~been gathered
nselect ab the best form
wi eenwnward from the
vigorous looking stalks, but in
that any future' increase in
may be brought about by these
ears, they should be taken
as which have not been fa
by ferti'le spots in the field or
ore distance in' the drill from
o draw an extra supply of plant
Af>ter having made the above
ion the ears should be "shucked"
placed on a large box or table in
orer thiat each individual ear may be
carefully examined.
In making this examination one
should, consider! the following points:
(1) All the ears which are to be~
planted in the breeding patch should
be as much alike in every respect as
possible, thus securing uniformity.
(2) All ears should be as near a
cylindrical shape as possible, as a cy
lindrical shaped ear will carry a high
er percentage of grain than a taper
ing onie.
(3). All white varieties should have
white kernels and white cobs unless a
red cob variety, then all cobs should
be red. Yellow kernels and red cobs
i white corn indicate mixture.
(4). The tips and butts soud be
wel conere with uniform n well
shaped kernels.
(5). The kernels on all parts of the
ear should be; as near alike in shape,
size and color as possible, as the shape
land size determine, in a large meas
ure, the regularity with which a corn
planter will drop them.
(6) The length for single ear varie
ties should not be less than eight ii
ches with a circumference about six
inches measurwl one-third the di
tance from b itt.
Having seeted about 50 ears ac
cording to the above directions from
the one hun&ed fs t gathered they
should be stored away untif near
planting time in some dry place wher
weevils or mice will not affect them.
Then they should be placed on a plank
or large box and numbered consecu
tively from 1 to 50 in order that they
may be tested for germination or abil
ity to sprout. This test is made as
follows: Fill a soap or starch box
with wet sawdust, placing on top of
the sawdust a wet flour or meal sack
which has been laid off in pencil
squares 2W2 inches. The squares
should then be numbered from 1 to 50.
Then take ear No. 1. a rid remove six!
kernels from it, tsking the first ker
nel about one inch from the butt,
slightly turn aar in the hand and re
move another kernel about on'e and
a half inches from the place where the
first one was removed. Continue this
slight turning of th(e ear and removal'
of kernels until the six axe secured.
Having removed the kernels, place
them germ side up in square No. 1, all
tips pointing in the samle direction.
Continue to remove kernels from the
individuaL ears, placing them in the
square corresponding to the number
of the ear from which they were re
moved. Then cover them with a wet
sack and place the box in the kitchen
and allow it to remain there a week,
wetting it twice during that length of
time. After the test has been running
about a week remove the top sack and
examine each square containing the
kernels. The number of these squares
which do not contain six large sprouts
should be ascertained and the ear cor
responding -to the number of that par
ticular square should be discarded, as
all of the kernels on it wi.l not grow.
Having decided which ears are to
be retained each should be planted on
a separate row. It is not necessary
that the entire ear be planited, but pr'e
cautions must be taken so that each
row planted will have the same num
ber of stalks and distance, both In the
drill and between the rows.
The following fall each row should
be gathered separately- and the ears
from,it weighed. The best ears from
the highest yielding rows should be
saved to start another breeding patch
the-second year. The most desirable
ears from several -of the next highest
yielding rows can be used for planting
the gen'eral crop.
It is necessary that the breeding
patch be sieveral hundred yards from
any other corn field to prevent mix
ing with inferior -varieties, and that
the character of the fertil.izers and
cultivation of the land used be-as near
like the gen.eral field as possible.

ODAY'S Study brings to our atten
tion a man of large natural ability
and of quite unusual opportunity.
:t shows us his disastrous error, which
esulted from his endeavor to be worldly
wise and to neglect his God and his re
igion. It furnishes an illustration which
:an be applied, not only to every political
t.nd every commercial enterprise, but also
to the life hopes of each individual.
,eroboam as a young man attracted the
%ttention of King Solomon, who perceived
that he possessed great executive talent
and that he was a natural master and di
rector of men. King Solomon put Jero
oam at the head oi one of his corps of
Irafted workmen who were engaged after
the manner of that
time in building.

tresses for the king
-without pay oth
er than very plain
food and clothing.
These labor armies
were obliged to
work for a number
of months and then
were replaced by
others similarly
conscripted.
Jeroboam became
the leader of a
party of discon
tents, and an in
ipielt rebellion
was the result -- -
This was quickly
suppressed by King
Solomon and there
upon Jeroboam fled
to Egypt, from
whence he return

Solomon and be
came the leader Jeroboam proclaimed
and spokesman of k of te ten tribes.
the ten tribes when
they demanded of Rehoboam the reform
>f the government's policy.
Jeroboam's first Mistake
It should -be remarked that one of God's
prophets had specially foretold to Jero
boam that he was to be the king of the
ten tribes. It was doubtless this that led
iim to head the insurrection. He should
iave followed the example of King Da
rid, who was anointed king of Israel sev
ral years before the death of King Saul.
Young David was content to wait God's
time for bringing him to the throne. The
%.ct that God had Indicated that this
Pvould be so did not indicate that the time
2ad come, hence David waited on the
Lord and meanwhile learned valuable les
ons of self-control and trust in Divine
rovidence.
Not so Jeroboam, who was evidently a
-ery different type of man, no doubt pos
~essed of more confidence in himself than
f trust in God; possessed of more impa
ence to be a king than of loyalty and
>atrotic .zeal to serve God and his people.
rhis first mistake should be noted by.all.
Wat ye %pon me, saith the Lord!" The
nan who ignores God is not wise; the
an who opposes G~od is a fool.
Jeroboam's- Second Mistake
When the ten tribep revolted against
ing Rehoboam, solomon's son, they
fromptly accepted Jeroboam, one of Solo
non's servants, as their king, in harmony
with the Prophet's .declaration of years
before. Finally the boy of humble birth
id reached a high station of influeigce--a
rand opportunity for service for his God
nd his people. Whoever occupies a pobi
ion of prominence-political, social, liter
.ry-should recognize that thereby he has
ome under special responsibility and ob
gations toward all with whom he has
:o do.
But Jeroboam, king of the ten tribes
tyled Israel, took the course, alas, too
ommonly. taken-the selfish course. He
Looked not to the Lord to serve him, nor
to the people, to serve their best it erests.
le looked selfishly to his own interests.
le reasoned thus'. If I would establish
ny family in the kingdom of these ten
tribes, I must separate- them effectually
rom the influence of the kingdom of Ju
ah. And since, in God's Providence, the
remple is in the land of ,Judah, an.d all
the religious rites and interest of the peo
le center there, I must as unobtrusively
as possible turn the attention of the na
tion I1 rule away from sympathy with
heir- fellows of the kingdom of Judah,
md away from the regulations which God
as establshed there.
Every worldly politician would declare
eroboam a master spirit as a ruler, as a
politician. He was worldly wise. God
through the Prophet-had assured him, "If
thou wilt hearken to all that I will comn
inand thee, and wilt walk in my ways,
ud do right in my sight to keep my
tatutes and my commandments, as Da
id my servant 11id, thy kingdom will be
prolonged."-I Kings 11:38.
God explained that the reason for giv
ing Jeroboam rulership of the ten, tribes
was that Solomon's
course of dealing
with the nations
round about was
gradually breaking
down the true re
)ligion and leading
the people toward
Idolatry. Jeroboam
should have had
all this in mind,
and should have
applied his heart
with special fervor
Sof idolatry.

for policy's sake,
he led the nation,
of which he was
king, directly into
idolatry. He did

inder the pretext that it was too far for
the people to go to Jerusalem, he erected
a golden bull near the northern extremity
of his kingd6m, and another near the
southern line, and the people went frorn
one to the other.
The Thing Was of the Lord
Lest we should suppose that the affairs
of Israel's Kingdom, under Divine super
vision, were neglected and allowed to gc
astray, we are particularly informed that
"the thing was of the Lord." From this
standpoint of faith and from no other th4
history of Israel should be studied.
God had chosen to give Israel the Law
Covenant for the very purpose of devel
oping in them as a nation holiness, faith
fulness. Their lessons of the past hac
been to this end, and now the time had~
coetod a siftin anpating work.
