FARM NOTES.
(From 'Modern Farming.)
ESTLMATING CORN IN A CRIB.
To find the number of bushels of
inshucked corn in a crib multiply
the length of the crib by the width
and then by the height, and divide
the product by 5,000. The quotent
will represent the bushels of un
shucked corn. (LiJWxlH of crib di
Vided by 5,000 is bushels of unshuck
ed cor .)
rTo Ind the number of bushels
when the corn is shucked but not
shelled, .multiply the length of the
crib by the height, and divide the
product by 4,300. (i@laWrH of crib
divided by 4,300 is bushels shucked
corn).
To find the number of bushels
when the corn Is shelled, multiply
then length of the crib by the width
and iby the height, and divide the
product by 2,250. (.LWaIH of crib
divided by 2,250 in :bushels shelled
corn.)
In each rule the dimensions of the
crib for height, width and length
must be in inches and not in feet or
feet and Inches.
SthALL PFOTIATOES FOMl SEED.
This is a season of small potatoes,
and the question is already being
asked, it these small potatoes are
suitable 'for next season's seed. The
real objection of the use of the small
seed is not the size of the tuber, but
the continuous selection of small
tubers, which means that in a few
seasons'the small tubes thus select
ed will come largely from hills pro
ducing small tubers and so greatly
reducing the yield. If your crop
consists largely of small tubers this
season have no fear in using them'
for seed. But do not snake it a prac
tice to selec tsmall potatoes one year
-following another. I, .LIB.
S1PAENWi OF CORN IN ROW.
(What has your experience been in
determining the best distance to
leave corn in drill, planted in six
toot rows. The land I am to put
corn in next season (in the sugar
belt) is first class, and I am going
to get it in splendid physicial con
dition before planting. It is land
that has not had cane in it for sev
eral years, and will not be fertilized.
Would one-foot distance between
the stalks be too close?
Answer-The distance to leave the
corn in drill in six-toot rows varies
with the kind of land. Cane is usu
ally very hard on the land, and corn,
as a rule, does not do very much
when directly preceded by that crop.
I would suggest that you leave the
stalks from twelve to sixteen inches,
using your.ow nJudgment as to the
strength of your land. Of course,
if you were fertilizing ten inches
might be sufficient.
WEIGHT OF COR.N.
What is the average weight ot an
ear of corn as commonly grown- in
southern ouaismana, both In the slip
shuck and when shucked?
Answer--The average weight of a
bushel of corn When slip shucked is
approximately eight pounds; if the
shucks are not removed at all this
weight can easily go to ninety pounds
sometimes even more. A -bushel of
corn in ear with shucks entirely re
moved usually will weigh from sev
enty to seventyfive pounds, depend
ing on the moisture content.

constipation. Keep your bowels reg

a laxative is needed take Chamber

the bowels but improve the appetite
and strengthen 'the digestion. Ob
tainable everywhere.
NERVOUS WOMEN.
When the nervousness is caused by
constipation, as is often the case, you
will get quick relief by taking Oham
berlain's Tablets. These tablets al
so improve the digestion. Obtain
