SCIENCE IN GROWING CORN Require Great Deal of Labor, but Farmer It Repaid by the In created Crop. IBv r:HA8. K. PETRnSHN.) The testing of seed com is very im portant this spring. Not In many years has the question so closely ap pealed to the former as it does now. Much of the seed corn saved In the corn belt states for this season's plnnt Ing is showing low germination anil better cultivation than ever will be necessary to produce a big crop. A good seed bed Is the foundation of the crop, or rather the llrst stone upon the real foundation, the seed, Presuming that the corn ground Is In proper rotation and sufficiently man urt tl, it should be writ keel up as mel low as a garden hod. If stalks are on the ground they should be disked both ways, tho rollers being ground sharp. then follow with a spnillngldlsk, and work the soil thoroughly four or five Inches deep. It Is hardly possible to spend too much time in preparing the ground It should be disked three times each way, making six workings before plaining. When stalks are plowed under good plan Is to harrow first then plow, then harrow again anil plant. The harrow should follow the plow closely and all plowed ground should be finished every noon and night. Another good preparation is to disk the ground four times, using a spader the first time and an ordinary disk a week later. Then harrow the land j after each double disking and plant I close after the harrow. Kowe the 11 llnois man says that after several years' experience he prefers disking to plowing. Of course sod ground must be plowed. It is also Important to use the right hind of a corn planter use an edge drop planter or one that will drop the exact number of kernels for which It Is set 95 times out of 100. It should even do better than that. If the seed has been carefully sorted according to size to fit the holes in the different plates. This Is the only way to get an even stand of corn. An even stand from good seed Is the only way to grow a profitable crop. Test the planter well before taking It to the field. Do not spoil a lot of ground and waste a lot ot seed trying to find out whether your planter is reliable or not. USEFUL IN HEATING WATER In Hog-Killing Time Device Shown in Illustration It of Greatest Value on Farm. A crane Is very useful in heating water during hog-killing time, or when ever a kettle Ib to be suspended over a lire. Set a heavy post firmly into the ground, tamping In a shovelful of coarse gravel or stone and attach a bar of Iron at the proper distance Crane for An Open Fire. near the bottom. To an eye-bolt near the top attach a chain, letting It pass down through the end of the rod which should be in the shape of a fork. Tho length of the chain will determine the distance of the kettle from the ground. , . Some Fertilizers Injure Celery. j It Is popularly believed that certain fertilizers influence tho disease of cel I ery known as black heart, and a series : of experiments was carried on at the Florida experiment station, in which 36 formulas of fertilizers were tested. Plats receiving nitrate of soda and j katnlt were uniformly severely at i tacked by the disease, and those" plats which received fertilizers consisting of bone meal, fish scrap and high I grade sulphate of potash gave best re i suits. Care of New Lawn. All new lawns should be covered with well rotted manure or other com mercial fertilizer late In the fall. Five hundred pounds of the latter to the acre Is a good proportion. Some gar deners think that the use of stable manure encourages weeds. Fertilizer! for Fruit. Commercial fertilizers rich in pot ash is Deeded for fruit trees; It strengthens and builds up the wood and adds flavor to the fruit. When they get strong and vigorous apply nitrate of soda In the early spring. - Anyone With Little Ingenuity Can Make Them Set of Molda Will Laat Indefinitely. Among the occupations which offer profit and amusement, and at the same time entirely suited to women, Is that of bee raising. Its advantages are that little space Is required, there Is no great expense and the work Is light, requiring only a limited amount of time and care. Much of the ap paratus required may be made, at home and where the facilities tor this Concrete Beehive. are not present, the things may be purchased without any great outlay ol money. There have been many improve ments lately In the manner of con structing the beehives and probably the most Interesting Is one which is mnde o concrete. A patent has been recently issued covering the manufac ture of concrete beehives, but any one with a little Ingenuity may easily make them, and a set of molds once having been made satisfactorily, mny be used indefinitely and any number of hives made from It. Anyone at tempting to make a hive of this ma terial should acquaint themselves with the charncter of the cement and should also be familiar with the habits of bees. HANGING-SHELF FOR CELLAR Curtain Hung Around Fruit Jars Ex cludes Dust and Keept Out Filet to Great Extent. (By J. WEBLET ORTFFIN.) We used to wrap all of our glass fruit Jars with paper to exclude the light. Now we have a curtain hung Hanging-Shelf. around the shelf as shown by the dotted lines In the drawing. It Is tacked along each side Joist to the edge of the center Joists. What light gets In between the Joists amounts to nothing and the arrangement makes a good ventilation for the closet. Try a curtain around the cellar shelf and see how well the fruit keeps. It also Keeps out dust and files to a great extent. The Gipsy Brown Tall. Every farmer should take nntna tn learn to recognize at sight the various stages or the gipsy brown tall and many other of our Insect pests, and they should be Instructed by the state how to manage the war against them. If farmer A keeps his orchard and trees free from brown tails and neigh bor B Just over the fence leaves a lot of these pests on some of his trees that are out of the lurisrilrtlon nf tho town or state, how can fnrmor A . expect to get ahead In his fight against ine peat; The well filled silo forestalls dry pasture worry. One and one-half bushels of wheat are ample to sow an acre. The successful farmer finds weed ing to do in the flocks as well as th fields. You can find many chunks of wood about the farm. Save them all for the. stove. Every weed that is killed before going to seed makes next year's field the cleaner. Manure that Is spread upon the field will not waste its fertility. This is not the case with the piles in the barnyard. Bees use water to dilute the heavy, thick honey left over from winter to make it suitable for the young larvae, and also to make the cell wax pliable, Onions, squashes, pumpkins and sweet potatoes should be stored in I dry frost-proof place; most cellars arc too damp, and a room or attic If usually a better place. Keep some kind of a crop growing In the garden the entire Beason. Ii nothing else is done, sow wheat or rye on the vacant places to keep weedi from springing up and maturing teed. Weeds ripen In a very short time U they are allowed to grow. 1 mmm xsteaw Itt Geographical Position and Many Other Considerations Mark It at Most 8ultable 8pot for Dedi cation of Great Work. Public sentiment has decided thnt the completion of the Panama Canal ln.l15 shall be celebrated with a great International Exposition in which all the nations of the world may participate; and the question of where this Exposition Ib to be held will be setC-ed by Congress at, Its ap; proachlng session. New Orleans and San Francisco are contesting for the honor of hold ing thlB Exposition, and both cities have guaranteed Immense sums of money as an evidence of their ability to finance so great an enterprise. An Exposition worthy of the term "World's Fnlr," such as New Orleans proposes to build, will he a groat ed ucational movement. Its success as such, however, will depend entirely upon tho percentage of our popula tion who can secure Its educational advantages, this In turn, depends up on Its location, as the time In travel ing to and from the Exposition, and the cost In railroad and Pullman fnres, are the most Important factors. Considering these matters, , New Orleans' claims to being the "Logi cal Point" for this Pannma Exposi tion, seem to be fully substantiated by the following facts: New Orleans Is BOO miles from the center of population In the United States. San Francisco Is 2,500 miles distant therefrom. Within a radius of 500 miles from New Orleans there are 17,500,000 people. Within the same radius from San Francisco there are only 2,000,000. Within a radius of l.ooo mt'eA from New Orleans, there are 05,000,000. Within the same radius from San Francisco there are only G,000,000. At an average of 900 miles from New Orleans, there are 70 of our principal cities with n combined population of 20,000,000. Averaging 900 miles from San Frnnclsco there are only 8 large cities, with a com bined population of Jtmt 1.000,000. The average distance of all thess cities to New Orleans Is 792 miles, lo San Francisco 2.407 miles. Over 75 per cent, of the people of the United States could go to an Exposition there at. an average ex pense for rallrond fore of $12.50, as against an average of $37.50 to the Pacific Coast; and for several mil lions of our people, the Pullman fare and Dining Car expenses alone, for a trip to San Francisco, would amount to more than all their trans portation expenses for a trip to New Orleans. This is an Important public ques tion to be settled by Congress at the session which convenes In December. Many of our readers will wish to visit this World's Panama Exposi tion, and If held In New Orleans a grent many more could spare the time and money for the trip than could go to San Francisco. There fore, we urge our readers to write to the two senators from this State and the congressman from this district, requesting them to support New Or leans In the contest The Retort Courteous. "Now," said the suffragette orator. sweeping the audience with her eagle eye, "I see Mr. Dobbs sitting down there In the third row a man who has condescended to come here to night and listen to our arguments.
