LESSON FOR SEPTEMBER 3
Selecting Com for Seed in the Field.
(Praparad by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Seed corn for next season's plnntfnj?
should he selected in the field from
the standing stalks in September. The
(JsHppoiqting search for gttod seed
corn every spring should be a suffi
cient reason for following tills prac
tice. strongly advocated by the Tnlted
States Department of Agriculture.
Any Intelligent fanner can go Into his
own cornfield when the corn is mature
and select high-grade seed If he ha*
planted suitable types of com and cul
tivated properly. If he has jellied a
county movement to develop fertaln
standard varieties of mrn which grow
that, locality, and If he hat raised I
these strains on his own laacf he mmj [
reasonably expect a market for say eery su<
surplus seed lag aw
in the winter bring the best ten ears
to the local county schools where
shows will'be held. The best ten ears
from each school will then compete
with the other schools of the township
and the heat from the town with the
rest of the county. Six hubdred and
thirty-nine youngsters promised to try.

Having secured a leave of absence

neyed to Jerusalem. After resting
three days without disclosing his pur
pose to any one, he made a survey
of the walls by night. Having thus ob
tained first-hand Information he called
the representatives of the Jews to
gether and said. “Let us build the
walls of Jerusalem.” He then made
known the hand of providence In
bringing him to Jerusalem with the
authority to rebuild Its walls. He thus
showed great wisdom In finding out
for himself the real conditions and
what work would be required to re
store the walla. Tbe one who Is qual

Shame on Them.
pERHAPS there are a few mothers who do not know the virtues of Fletchers
Castoria. Perhaps there are a few who know that there are imitations on
the market, and knowing this demand Fletcher’s. It is to ALL motherhood, then,
that we, call attention to the numerous imitations and counterfeits that may be
set before them. ~ ' c
It is to all motherhood everywhere that we ring offt the warning to beware
of the “Just-as-good”. For over thirty years Fletcher’s Castoria has been an aid
in the upbuilding of our population; an aid in the saving of babies.
And yet there are those who would ask you to try something new. Try
this. Try that. Even try the same remedy for the tiny, scarcely breathing, babe
that you in all your robust womanhood would use for yourself! Shame on them.

lect their own seed,, but the definite
work of safeguarding the seed corn
supply °f the county is being carried
on with a few men who are really
competent to produce certified seed
corn and equipped to handle It. Event
ually it Is hoped that there will be a
man in every township doing this seed
corn work ami. where possible, having
seed corn houses in which to dry it.
In Seott^,county, Minnesota, last
year, 4,300 acres of selected seed were
planted. For their planting 32
farmers field-selected their seed corn,
and all had a surplus to sell. Stearns
comity has 31 eo-operuturH lu seed
corn work. Minnesota No. 13, Rust
less White v Dent, and Northwestern
Dent were the varieties used. Some
of this certified seed was awarded to
30 farmers with their farm bureau re
newal. thus Insuring a good distribu
tion for this year. The boys and girls
of the county Include field selection
of seed corn In their club work.

emphusixing the importance of having

the ’method to the individual farmer

Improvement of seed corn in (he coun

would help to eliminate corn-root rot,
if ears were selected from stalks that
were vigorous and not ripening pre
maturely and on shanks that showed

Co-Operation by Written Agreement.
The county agent for Huerfano

promlged to raise their corn accord

select seed corn In the field and store

by the county agent during the sum

the percentage of stand each had, thus
showing the men of what Importance
It was to plant seed corn that germi

True Respect.
Many of the old darkles In the
South handle a vlnllp how with con
siderable skill. One such had an em
ployer with similar tastes.
One day he and the aged servant
were fiddling together, and as they
finished the piece the employer onld:
“You handle the bow pretty well.
Joe, but you are always a bur or ao
behind. Wffy lb thni?”
“Out of deffinco to yo\ Colonel,”
said Joe.—Philadelphia Ledger.
- Record Mastodon Tusk.
The largest masfiydon tusk ever dis
covered was found by workmen 40
feet below the surface of the earth
in a gravel pit nt Cincinnati—weight
75 pounds; seven feet from tip to tip.
A farmer has little faith in any ad
vice, because he has had to deal with
the weather for so long. ■

Sound Vibrations.
It Is reported that certain experi
ment* have ‘shown that a vibration of
sound having an amplitude of lea*
than one-twelve-mIMIonth of a centi
meter could still affect the sense of
hearing. Such a vibration would be so
short that It would have to be en
larged one hundred times before the
most powerful microscope could ren-
,der it visible, supposing that It were
' capable of being seen at all. Old per-
sons, it Is said, do not hear high notes
which are audible to young persons,
and there Is reason to believe that
babies bear notes that arc inaudible to
their elders.—New York Herald.

Slight Mistake.. —- -
Jim wan-very much in love, but held
back his proposal from sheer bash-
fulness. At last he ..decided to pop
the question by telephone.
“Mabel, I love you !*’ he gasped, his
heart thumping. “Will you marry
me?”
There was a moment’s hesitation
before the answer came.
“Of course I will, Arthur. Why
didn't you come and ask me yourself?"
Then Jim shouted back:
“You’ll have to break the news to
, Arthur yourself. Ill ix* hanged If I
will!"
