MANY NILE RIVERS SUPPLY THE U. S. Advice For Handling Corn Fields That Overflow Is Given Washington, D. C„ April .—ln the United Sttaes there are more than ten million acres of good corn laud subject to overflow. The great er portion of this yearly is planted to corn. No other crop is better adapted nor so generally grown on this land as corn. Twenty times as many acres of corn are subject to de struction by floods as are planted In the whole of New England. The amount of land subject to overflow, but otherwise admirably suited to corn, and the greater part of which is yearly planted to corn, exceeds the combined area of New Jersey and Massachusetts. When droughts cause corn on the uplands to fail, the river bottom lands usually supply good yields. Fortunately only certain sections are visited each year by spring and sum mer floods. Not knowing beforehand what section will be flooded, it is the patriotic duty of those farming niver bottom lands'to have in readi ness suitable seed corn for planting overflowed lands as soon as the floods subside. When the floods oc cur in the spring, the plantings should be made with home-grown seed as It usually produces better than imported seer. When the floods occur as late as June, it will be ad-j visable to plant early-maturing va- i rieites, seed of which is plentiful this year and can be obtained from the ■seed-corn men and seed dealers of the Dakotas, Minnesota, lowa, Wis cosin, Michigan and New York. Many Good Varieties Where there are three months or more of good growing weather re maining after the water leaves the land, such varieties as Learning, lowa Silver Mine, Silver ing, 100 Day Bristol, 90 Day Dent, 90 Day Flint, etc., should be planted. If less than ninety days of corn-growing weath er remain, such varieties as Pride of the North, Rustler's White Dent, Minnesota No. 23, U. S. Selection No. 133, Northwestern Dent, North Da kota White Flint, etc., should be planted. This seed is obtainable now and will hold its powers of germination and productiveness for three or four years. It is therefore advisable that all who have crops liable to destruc tion by floods should obtain now and maintain a suitable supply of seed for prompt planting in case of high water. Experience has shown that if such seed is not on hand when the floods come, that it is seldoAi possible to make timely plantings. Those who sell seed usually have disposed of their surplus by the time the general corn planting is com pleted. Obtain seed now and be pre pared. C. P. Hartley, in charge of corn investigations, U.

TUESDAY EVENING, I PRODUCE INFERTI Save the Spoilage That Comes From Letting the Male Bird Run With the Flock \ Washington, D. C., April 6—The farmers of the United States lobo each year large Bums becaußO of Improper methods of producing and handling eggs. One-third at least of this loss Is easily preventable. It U due to the par tial hatching of fertile eggs. The eggs laid by a hen may be either fertile or infertile, depending on whether or not the male bird hasbeen allowed to run with the female. A fertile egg is one in which the germ has been fertilized by the male bird. Except for this process of fertiliza tion, the male bird has no influence upon the eggs which the hens lay. Egg production Is equally great in flocks from which roosters are ex cluded. A fertile egg does not keep as well as an infertile one because the fer tilizes germ responds more readily to high temperatures than the unfertil ized one. It is impossible to hatch an infertile egg or to cause a blood ring to form in one. Such eggs are much J more likely to reach the table in good ; condition and there Is much less spoil- I "DRY" PROSPECTS CAUSES WORRY i One of the Possible Horrors! of War; Military Prepared ness Against Disease New York, April . —Broadway has long been cont-ldered the main line to trenches of the Grand Old Army of General Alcohol.

' Campaign Against Disease 1 o-day a well organized campaign against disease is recognized as a fundamental part of preparedness for war. Armies of the past have been decimated by plagues which nave one by one succumbed to mod ern preventive medical science. In our own Spanish war, typhoid proved more deadly than bullets. Since that day anti-typhoid vaccine lias conquered this seourgre. With another war pending. Amer ican medical science turns Its atten tion to the less virulent but none the less deadly foe. tuberculosis. Great interest has been aroused here, therefore, by the request of the' Council of National Defense to the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, which has headquarters in this city to conduct a coupntry-wide survey of the situation with a view to map ping out a program for combatting this disease in the American army The association will report the re sults of this study which should be of incalculable value In enlisting the members of the general medical profession in this branch of pre paredness, and through them the public at large. A vast fund of new scientinc knowledge has been ac quired in this field in thelast ten years, knowledge that has revolu tionized medical practice. Much of this.
