A ; Alocry.'V Y., .Ian. 1.?Precedents of >? :;: s standing were ignored and: | other*- ; reated today during the inigina'ion of William Sulzer as l)enicratic governor of the Empire State. All the pomp and display usually in- 1 cident to such occasions were lacking; * this at the governor's own request. ; There was no military demonstrations, 1-.^ crnvorrtn?'c calnfP of 19 2U11S, nO ^ w - - _ W parade, nothing to feature the indue-j ; tion into office of the State's chief ex-; i ecutive, except a notable gathering of f prominent people and the carrying outp | of the procedure provided by the con- j stitution. *' . The new governor insisted on walk-!"; j ing from the executive mansion to the!; capitol, refusing to ride in a carriage j which had been provided. After the: , ceremonies he inaugurated a new fea-' ture by appearing on the front steps! of the- capitoI, and addressing the thou- ; sands who were unable to witness the ceremonies inside. i < Governor Sulzer tcok the constitu-'j tional oath of office in the lavishly-j . decorated assembly chamber. In his inaugural address the new ex~ i ecutive pledged "an honest and affi-j cient" and economic ,ind businesslike j , administration," and was greeted with! prolonged appl^ire when he said: f,j '"The people- *nb\v that an ounce ofj ; performance i/ worth a ton of prom-! i j ( ^gre mv adminis-i] emu ? j?. < tration not By what I say now, but by !, what I do hereafter." |] Selecting: and Preparing Show Corn.}, It has been claimed by some that the ", success of some corn breeders has been j due not so much to their ability to iv produce high yields as to their ability j , to select winning show samples. Now while a high yield of corn is of primary importance to the farmer, the v f ability to select a good show sample . should not be slighted in any way. < In selecting a sample, the main idea to keep in mind in uniformity. Uniformity of shape, size, color, and in- ( W dentation in one sample will often win over another sample which contains a V lot of very good individual ears which j V are not alike. I See that the ears are of nearly the j | same length and circumference as pos-1; | sible. Discard those ears that are not f f cylindrical in shape, that is, see that \ they are round and that they taper as ] little as possible from btitt to tip. Color has reference to both the grains and ] cobs. In a sample of white corn see } ^ %*t there are no yellow grains or red t bbs (unless it be a red cobbed, white ] variety, which is unusual). .In a yel- l low variety see that there are no white c grains or white cobs. In /act, even aj< ninv r?nh is obiectionable in yellow j j i'4?' ~~ ~ ? _ - ? - corn. The deep, dark red is preferred, j 1 The matter of color is even carried further than is indicated in the above J < sentences, for it is desirable to have'l The e.nrs of the sample of the same i shade of white or of yellow, as the z case may be. i By indentation we mean the wrink- f led portion of the top of the grains, j 1 See that the ears are of the same j! roughness or smoothness in this re-ft spect. A very sharp grained ear is c undesirable, so also is a very smooth 1 grained ear. 1 The next thing to consider is the in- * dividual ears in the sample. Select * only those which are straight. Have)'2 ** - ?'^ ?iinninnr C+rOlcht i ine TOWS UI grciiua i uuuiiig up and down the ear. Have the rows ' of grains running uniformly and evenly out over the butts and tips and to such an extent that the tip is entirely covered with grains and that a cupshaped cavity is formed at the butt, i -where tL ear is fastened on to the stalk; anc je sure to sec- that the * spaces betw ;en the rows of grains are 1 as narrow as possible. Finally see * that the ears are solid, that is, they should b^ so firm that you cannot twist them in your hands or move the grains _ E with your fingers. IE Now take your knife and remove ! C from the ears all pieces of husks and j silks. Cut out all the portion of the stalk that remains attached to the cob at the butt end. Scrape all the portions of the cob that you cut with the knife so that the cut is not left smooth and clean. Wrap each ear separately in a piece ^ of newspaper and pack carefully in a * box. I ?ou are so ortunate as to be 11 able to arrange your sample in the 11 show room, put the longest ear on the ^ g right and the next longest next to it and so on down, having the shortest 0 t] ear on the left of the sample. Do not kick if the judges don't give your sample first place, but try to selecf a better sample next time. Prof. M. S. Gardiner. ^ r Woodrow Wilson was 2 years old IT when he left Stauntaon.
