This shows plainly n less degree of vitality In the misshapen butt nnd tip kernels than In tho symmetrical nnd uniform kernels from the middle of the cnr. A further continuation of the test showed a similar difference lu early growth in favor of the kernels from tho middle rt in nrfl- The best way to select seed corn Is In the cnr. for the conformation or tuo ear Is as Important as that of the ker nel.

So nlso nro cars well filled nt tho ends and ns nearly ns possible cylindrical In form, which gives n lar ger per cent of normal sized kernels, for ns the taper Increases tho length and size of the kernels decrease. Seeds men rarely ship seed corn long dis tances In tho ear, but when they do they ship better corn than thnt which Ik Rlielled. This nilvlee. therefore, nn- . ,, . .-, piles to home selection of seed rather tunn to mat snipped in irom long distances. Slulch For Orchnriln. Trees usually cannot grow and ripen a crop of apples nnd fruit buds at tho same time. Especially if suffering from drought they often do not ninturo tho crop of apples. If this, bo true, which every observing man must admit, why not mulch? I four thnt our great ml vlsers have strayed nwny from nature nt any rate. In regard to trees. Na ture Is a great teacher. If any ono will go Into tho prlmltlvo forests, ho will sec how until re has nrovlded for tlin trees mulch In nbundnuco six to eight Inches deep, humus nnd moisture, with fertility Inexhaustible. Tho armies of trees have nourished for thousnnds of years nnd will continue If not disturb ed. This is my Ideal condition to havo it under my trees nt least out to the area of tho brunches. Anything will nnswer for mulch that grows out of the ground If so decomposed ns not in tin coarse enough to bo In tho way about tho orchard. If the ground Is poor, spread manure over It first. T. I.

Ho had played liookv from school one day to cut the "crotch." He lind crept softly Into his father's library, opened the table ilrntri.r ,,! extracted a rubbor band to furnish the shooting force. He had cut the palm out of his sister's kid glove to make the "stone holder." nnd now he hnd left the choolhouso liehlnd blm once nioro and was orr In the green meadow nftor somo frogs to shoot. "Jllg-ll-rum. itlr-n-rnm" ml-.wt i.. frogs along the bunk. "Knee-deep, knee deep!" piped tho "peepers." Hill lay upon the bank and waited. Milk For Hen. I have fed thousands of cans of milk to hens nnd chickens and never but onco suspected that It Injured them, says O. W. Mapes, "tho Hen Mnn." In this enso a number of rcmnnnts of cans, some of them much older than others, were mixed together. This ap parently poisoned tho hens, so thnt a number of them died. Tho first few feeds of milk will often havo a laxative effect on tho bowels, but I do not be- llOVO this Is Injurious nnv mnrn fhnn is tho Inxntivo effect of tho ilrst few feeds of fresh crass unon n cow. Wo would hardly think of refraining from turning our cows out to grass because of tho laxative effect sure to follow. Sweet milk seems to havo a moro pro nounced effect than thick or lnnneroil milk. With young chicks In brooders any looseness of bowels is objectiona ble If It can bo avoided. We uso no medicine of any kind. Any ono having uso for n nlco, now gravo and box In which to bo Interred mny strlko a bargain by calling on County Judgo DIakoley, for the Judgo has a gravo and coflln on hand that ho has no uso for. Yesterday mornlnc It was roported to tho Judge, on what seemed to bo good authority, that an Indian had died In his hut at tho In dian settlement across Mill crook,, west of town, and tho Judgo ordered a box mado and a gravo dug for "tho brave. But when Iko Perry went after tho corpso for tho purposo of depositing It In tho gravo ho found Mr. Indian not dead, but very much allvo, and strenu ously objecting to having his funeral celobrated. Slnco tho Indian Is not dead, and shows no inclination, to dio, Judgo Blakoloy has a gravo and a cof- fin on hand to soil at a bargalt-Times-Mountnlncer. Not-sthe Robbers.
