STORING SEED CORN FOR
THE WINTER.
The proper storage of seed corn
during winter is of just as much
importance as carefully selecting
it in the field. In fact the value
of the field work may count for
nothing if the corn is improperly
stored.
In the first place, the stalks se
lected for seed purposes should bo
allowed to stand in the fields until
thoroughly matured. When pulled
_ the corn should not he thrown in
_ .-4)iles in the fields or elsewhere,
^•but should be shucked and al
lowed to thoroughly dry. Re
moving the husks not only allows
thorough drying, but lessens dan
ger from weevil attack. After
husking the corn should be put in
a place that is fairly warm, pre
ferably where the sun will strike
it, and where there is a free cir
culation of air, the idea beinur
that the amount of moisture in the
grains must be reduced to the
minimum, in order to avoid freez
ing during winter. In the North
it is desirable to store in a room
where artificial heat may 'be ap
plied during very cold weather,
but this is seldom if «ver needed
here in the South.
Even after the ears are well
dried out care is needed in stor
age, and a free circulation of air
around each ear should be pro
vided. This can be provided in
a number of ways. If thrown
loosely in small boxes or barrels
the results in this respect will be
satisfactory, provided the place is
dry. Under no circumstances
store in a leaky barn.
A better method is to tie up 10
or 12 ears with binder twine and
tie to the rafters or joists in the
C barn. A still better method is to
jÉt provide a shallow bin, the depth
of which is abort equal to the
length of an ear of corn, provid^
ed with shelves close together.
Then lay the ears of corn side by
side, and no ears on top of others.
The bin should be open on both
sides. This or any other method
that will give free circulation of
air around the ears will do all
risht. This storgäe may seem a
small matter, but it is of the ut
most importance.— Tj . A. Niven, in
The Progressive Farmér.

Vinol is What You Need
If all the tired, overworked, run-down women in
this community could realize how our delicious
Vinol which contains Beef and Cod Liver Pep
tones, Iron and Manganese Peptonates and Glyce
rophosphates supplies the vital elements necessary
to enrich the blood and create working strength,
we wouldn't be able to supply the demand.
Bordett, N. Y.
Dukedom, Tran.
"I live on a farm and keep house
for Bix in my family. I got into a
nervous, run-down condition so it
seemed as though I would die. A
friend advised mo to try Vinol. I
have been greatly improved by its
use and am better and stronger in
every way.

"I keep house for my family of

nervous breakdown, so I was unable
to work. The doctor did not seem to

have a good appetite and am well and

FILLING QUESTIONNAIRES.
Some people either do not
know how to help themselves or
they are so indifferent that thev
take what (ponies. The philoso
phy of one of tljat temperament
might not be criticised if he were
the only one affected, but when
that philosophy adds to the bur
dens of others it is another mat
ter.
These thoughts are suggested
bv the state of unpreparedness in
which citizens, having 1 question
naires to answer, presiented them
selves. !n other words, from the
time they received their question
naires until they appeared before
a member of the legal advisory
board they never did as much as
glance over it and when they
were confronted with the ques
tions they could the answer them
without hesitating and causing
the loss of valuable time to others.
There is no excuse) for this. The
task of filling the questionnaire
of the ordinarily intelligent man
is comparatively easy, but it is a
•big and tiresome job whem the
registrant depends entirely on the
0 en who gives aid and is not sure
as to dates and other facts and
burns up time trying to recall
The work of filling question
naires has been made more tedious
and harder by the inability of
regtsirants to answer all the
questions promptly an dtheir in
clination to invoke every claim
for exemption.
It was never intended that
members of legal advisory boards
should be over-worker by regis
trants who do not take enough in
terest in themselves to study their
questionnaires.—The St. Bernard
Voice. ,

No Worms In a Healthy Child
All children troubled with worms have an un
healthy color, which indicates poor blood, and as a
rule, there is more or less stomach disturbance.
GROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC tjiven regularly
for two or throe weeks will enrich the blood, im
prove the digestion, and act as a General Strength

throw off or dispel the worms, and the Child will be

PLAN THE TRACTOR'S WORK
AHEAD.
Before buying a tractor, analyze
your farm work and the work a
tractor will do. You must decide
whether or not you can plan your
work so as to keep the tractor
busy. Spend less time in work
ing and more time in planning.
The tractor will never entirely
replace horses, but it will to a
large extent take over the heavy
work of tillage. The traçtor has
an advantage over the horse In
that it is not affected by heat, can
be used for deep tillage, elimi
nates a great many hired-man
troubles, will work day and night,
and can be used to advantage all
the year round.
But the tractor requires care
just as does an animal. Some
persons overload their work ani
mals, and do the same thing
when they begin operating a
tractor. If you say anything to
them about it, they say, "Oh, it 'o
a machine! What difference does
it make?" Then, some day, the
tractor will give down when most
needed—and the manufacturer is
to blame, of course!
TWfe tractor is suited for all
kinds of heavy belt work and can
also be used for hauling grain or
other heavy produce to a shipping
point or some market direct, as
well as for hauling fertilizers,
lime, etc., to the farm. As a
source of power for pulling a
grader or ditcher, the tractor
ean't be beaten.
A farmer can find many uses
for a tractor that will utilize the
power the year round. This i»
what maires the investment prof

HOW ONE MAN MADE
PARTNER OF HIS BOY.
I have in mind a father of
wealth who early in his son's life
made the son a partner in busi
ness. He had thousands of acres
of pasture land and naturally his
attention was turned to livestock.
He, allowed the boy to pay for a
number of well fenced acres with
his half of the profits. What was
the result?
When the boy's associates were
out taking "joy-rides," he was
out at the ranch. Why? Be
cause he felt that he had an in
terest there and felt that he was
really.worth while, that his fath
er believed in him, trusted him
and Avas expecting him to make
good. Very few of our boys
would betray a confidence like
that.
I have seen that father consult
ing his son on subjects which the
father knew all about, and heard
him say, "That's right, son;
we'll do it just that way." It
would be an awful sorry son who
would not exert an extra effort
to think deeper in order to be
able to tell Father something bet
ter next time.
I saw this same boy desert his
Buick car* for a fine mule . and
stand proudly by patting him on
the neck and sav, Miss . isn't
he a fine fellow? Why was thip?
Because part of that mule be
longed to him and he didn't mind
one bit getting up early in the
mornincr to care for him, because
'twas his business.
Tf you have a boy take him in
as your partner, make him feel
he's a real, necessary part of the
busineipfr. Be your boy's real
"pal" in every way as a finan
cier.—J. W. J., in The Progressive
Farmer.
