Cultivating the Corn Crop. The production of more bush els of corn to the acre this year than ever before is urged by the PannavlTin ia State College. It la fclraadv too late tor further consideration of good seed, fer tiiiiatinn and the Dreriaration of the seed bed. Cultivation now of fer s the greatest opportunity for increased yield. Much should already have been accomplished in the cultivation of corn, through the preparation of a deep moist seedbed, in which all grass and weeds are com pletely plowed under. Any weeds since plowing should have been killed by thorough disking or harrowing. Cultivation should start early, soonafterthe corn is up. A drag or a spiketooth harrow, or a weeder, should be used at this time. It is often advisable to get over the crop twice the first 10 days or 2 weeks with one of these implements. Ordinary cultivation should be gin when the corn is a few inches high. The chief benefit of corn cultivation Bhould be the killing of weeds. To do this success fully, the weeds sbouldnot be per mitted to get much of a start. The tendency has been to over emphasiza the importance of the soil mulch. Just so long as weeds are controlled, without in juring the corn roots, satisfac tory results may be obtained. The shallower the cultivation, the better, in case of most soils. Ordinarily three cultivations are sufficient unless the ground is very weedy. Certainly with present labor conditions, addi tional cultivation should not bo given unless necessitated by the persistent growth of weeds and grass, ssys l L.

Thou shalt economize. ' Every man and. woman in America who wants to help win this war should obey theso three commandments," says Mrs. Eugenia G Benn, advisor of home and community interest of tbe Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. "We have not done our duty when we have done any one or two of. them but until we have done them all "First every one can become a producer. We are apt to curtail tbe meaning of producer to that of farm produce. Upon second thought, however, we can easily soe that a producer is one who produces something, either by linger-or brain brought forth.' lie is helpless indeed wha cannot produce something for the good of his country. If you cannot produce food, if you cannot be part of a manufacturing plant or if you cannot be a member of the war committees, you can wher ever you are at work, produce a a helpful thought, a stimulating iailuenceor a patriotic conclusi on. All work is primarily a men tal product and while ideas are valueless unless materialized, yet give the man with the ideas cred it for being a producer of the highest type. "Second, after we have pro duced, them we must conserve, in other words keep from loss, dt'cay or injury. Nothing must be wasted after we have produced it. It has consumed too much energy to produce it besides the fact that we.need all that we have. "And third, we must econo mize. Iam inclined to believo that this is the greatest of the three. To economize means to use sparingly, to spend thriftily. The American people have been and still are individually and col lectively an extravagant race. We must buy and use according to what we-need rather than what we want. Let each day's purchase be made with that thought in mind. Hut above all let us econ omize time, strength and energy. Let there be no doubling or back tracking, nojwaste, commercial ly, industrially educationally, or politically. "Produce, conserve and econo mize and do it all for the glory of our country and for the win ning of a righteous war." Concrete On The Farm. A large number of farmers who have attempted to put" in some conrcete improvements on rieasant Gathering Mr. John Everts near -Hancock who has been ill for a few weeks but is very slowly convalesing under the care of Dr. H.

Encourapre your child to be merry and to laugh aloud; a good, hearty laugh expands his chest and makes his blood bound merrily along. Commend me to a good laugh not a little snig geringlaugh but toone that sounds through the houBe; it will not only do your child good; but will be a benefit to all who hear, and be an important means' of driving the blues away from a dwelling. Merriment is very catching and spreads in a remarkable manner, few being able to resist the con tagion. A hearty laugh is de lightful harmony; indeed it is the best of all music. (1RACEY.

C. McLun, farm ad viser of the Pennsylvania De partment of Agriculture, "but considerable care must be ta'kcn to insure this long-lived property Concrete . pavements or side walks are not only a permanent improvement but a thing of beauty as well. "The concrete improvements about tbe barn are also perma nent and sanitary which is oneoi the most essential things particu larly in a dairy barn. The con crete troughs and mangers are more sanitary than the wooden 4 ones ana insure tne animais being sanitarily fed, as these troughs cau easily be thoroughly cleaned at stated intervals or as often as necessary. Animals fed out of a trough of this kind get all the feed and that is rot only a sanitary precaution but an economical one as well.

Save Man Power. Now, when saving farm labor is a matter of vital rational con cern, it is of tho utmost import ance that the u&e of large imple ments be generally adopted by those farmers who are still fol lowing thd traditional 2 horse method on 3 horse or 5 horse farms. Last year many far mtrs, speeding up their work by more tfiicient methods, were able to increase their crop ac reage in tho face of a decrease in hulp. This practice must be- como more general, in the opin ion ot oflicials of the United States Department of Agricul ture, if production of food is to be increased. . Not maay years ago the ma iority of farmers drova 2-horso teams. This practice is stil common in these sections of the couutry, while in others larger machines and teams of large sizo are used. That the latter prac tice can be Increa&cd to the ad vantage of the farmer as well as to the Notion seems certain. If such practice, desirable at all times, is adopted where pres ent conditions demand, in all probability it will become habit ual when normal conditions are restored.
