At tho Bovernl experiment ntatlonB corn has received moro than Its sharo of attention, and many experiments havo been mndo In order to learn how to dcrlvo tho largest yields and to grow tho crop most economically. Oplnlona differ, however, aa climate, vnrloty and soil arc factors governing every crop. Tho Indiana station found that tho best results were obtained by planting seed in Mny. It has beon shown that tho grcntest average yield of both cars and stocks have been ob tained when tho stnlks stood about twelve or fourteen inches apart in tho rows. Thick planting, however, re duces tho bIzo of tho cars, and tho per centage of grain, but thick planting has, in dry seasons, produced tho heaviest ylold of stalks and tho high est yield of cars. So far as depth of cultivation Is concerned, tho yields, when corn was cultivated one, two and thro inches, have been equal. In continuous corn culture heavy appli cations of fresh horso manure havo not been profitable, but the effect of n very heavy application of manure haa been noticed for many years. Thero does not Boom to bo much differ ence In yields duo to any particular Implement used, while hill and drill plantings of corn have produced the samo averago yields, Tho "checking" of corn in still tho most popular and profitable modo of growing tho corn at the least cost of labor. The result at ono station may not correspond with tliOBO obtained clsewhero, but where the work hns extended over a number of years the results should bo accepted as Important, If not conclu sive.

Ilolcombo, Inspector of ths United States bureau of animal hus bandry, says of treating horso corns: "As In all othor troubles, tho causo must ho discovered if posslblo and re moved. In a groat majority of cases tho shoeing will bo at fault. For a Bound foot, perfectly formed, a flat Mioe with heolB loss thick than the too and which rests evenly on tho wall proper Is tho best. In flat feot it is often necessary to concave tho feot as much as posslblo on tho upper surface so that tho solo may not bo pressed upon. If tho heels nro very lo.v tho heels of tho shoe may bo mndo much thicker. If tho foot is .very broad and tho wall light toward tho heels a far shoe, resting upon tho walls, may aid to prevent excessive tension upon tho soft tissues when tho foot receives tho wolght of tho body. A ploco of leathor placed between tho foot and shoe serves Inrgoly to destroy concussion, and Its uso Is absolutely necessary on somo nnlmnla to ennblo them to work. Among tho preventivo measures may bo mentioned those which servo to main tain tho suppleness of tho hoof. Tho dead horn updn tho surface of tho solo not only retains molsturo for a long time, but protects jiouhe coiiNfl. tho living horn be neath from tho effects of evaporation For this reason the solo should be pared as littlo as possible. nilllc Contamlnntlon. There are a hundred and ono places where milk can bo contaminated from tho tlmo It is drawn from tho udder till It reaches tho table in tho form of sweet milk, cream or butter. First, a great deal of bacteria, Impurities and discaBo germs get into tho milk at the barn or lot In which tho cows are kopt. Second, a great many moro ol Uicbo owo their existence in milk to tho attendant and the place In which tho milk Is kept. The moment the cow shows slgnB of being ill, or when even a slight eruption is noticeable, a person may contract disease by partafc lng of nor milk. Impure water Is an other way in which milk la contami natcd. If tho cow is compelled to drink out of a mud hole, filled with disease germs, she cannot help but drink a large number of those germs Into her system, some of them being sure to reach her milk. Milking the cow into an open pall when the barn Is filled with dust, and from which thero hangs an untold number of dirty cobwebs, or milking her in an offens ively Btnelllng lot, ,whoro tho filth Is ankle deep, or milking a cow whose udder, flanks and legs are covered with dirt and filth In such cases it is Im possible to avoid contamination of the milk. It 1b believed that more disease germt aro given tho human family through milk than aro given in any other agency; and wo also believe that less attention 1b paid to the care oi milk than to any other food consumed upon the table. Conllntr Crenm. Different conditions on tho faru will govern arrangements for tho cool lng of cream. ?here windmills are used, many farms cheaply con Btructcd milk-houses In which can be placed a tank or half barrel, through which all water Is led from tho wind mill to tho Btock-wntoring tanks. With the cream cooled and held in these tanks tho arrangement is everything required. Where windmills and milkhousot. arc not used, n half barrel can ho set near tho pump and a cheap shade con structed. Tho water can bo pumped by hand with Binall expenditure ol tlmo and labor. Tho cooling of the cronca wll' heat tho water. Run out the warm water and pump a fre3h supply In which the cream can sel over night or through tho day before being ndded to tho supply can. When another lot of warm cream is to be cooled, tho operation can be repeated A large box can be Bet over the barrel to protect tho cream from the sun The farmer's ingenuity may suggest Bonio othor protection equally as good Thero aro a dozen or moro arrango monts, inexpensively and easily made which can bo devised on every farm for tho proper caro of cream. These remarks suggest only the principle ol keeping tho cream In good condition INiNlurinir Slieuii. Somo writers claim that sheop ought not to bo pastured on land moro than ono year before it Is plowed and rcseeded, owing to parasites, but It has been shown thnt sheep havo been kept froo from parasites by tho uso of tar, turpontino and Bait.

The highest track-laying record on tho Western Pacific railway 1b 7,800 feet a day. It has been estimated that rats in England do damage to the extent of $76,000,000 annually. The figures of the London police courts show a very decided Increase during recent years In aerious crime. Tho salmon output of Alaska equals tho combined catch of British Colum bia, tho United States proper and Japan. Tho greatest cotton crop in the United States was that of 1908, which, on tho farm, was valued at $722,000, 000. Irvine King, of Crovetown, Ga., has a turkey gobbler sitting on about five dozen eggs, three dozen of which are guinea eggs. Cats 'are subject to a form of influ enza which Is communicable to human beings, and they can catch It from man Just as readily. Cigar boxes of glass are coming more and more Into use. They are cheaper than the wooden boxes and keep the cigars fresh, a longer time. Of the eighty-eight millions of popu lation of tho United States, one-third, speaking in round numbers, are found In tho thirteen original States.. Tho amount of blast furnace gas power lost each year approximates 2,000,000 horBo power, although this is being reduced by the Installation ot gas engines to utilize the power. During the fall and winter season of 1908-09, which ended March 21, 221 persons perished by shipwreck and olghty-nino vessels met with disaster off tho New England and British North American coasts. In 1839 Velpeau, one of the greatest Burgeons of his time, wrote as follows: "The escape from pain in surgical operations is a chimera which It is idle to follow up to-day. 'Knife' and 'pain In surgery are two words which are always Inseparable In the minds of patients, and this necessary associ ation must be conceded." There will shortly be opened In Switzerland the Wieser viaduct, on tho route from Davos to Fillsur. It Is entirely constructed of stone, at a height of 90 meters, or 292 -feet, and has a central arch of 55 meters and six others each of 20 motors, the en tire length of tho bridge being 175 meters. It is, according to a Paris contemporary, the most beautiful bridge in the world. Tho extension of prohibition through out tho United States has caused a largely increased demand for "soda pop," as Indicated by the great demand for bottles. Two big factories at the Alton (111.) glass works have been working since last fall, night and day, manufacturing soda pop bottles. Tho prohibition wave has also caused a big increase in orders for all kinds of large bottles. The Institute of Marine Engineers In London recently discussed the sub ject, and H. A. Mayor, ot Glasgow, said that the prospect for electric propul sion for ships la very hopeful. Lead ing shipbuilders have been considering It for some tlmo. W. P. Durtnall said that In the all-electric Paragon meth od ot driving vessels, the electric mo tors aro coupled direct to tho propel lers, and run at equally high efficiency in either direction. Since tho steam turbine can run In only one direction, tho now method saves the expense ot a reversible turbine. A minor drawback connected with the use Ot the electric flatlron has been found to be in the tact that the tomperaturo varied considerably as it was passed from ono piece of work to another containing more or less molsturo. This has now been over come by an automatic means of con trol by which tho temperaturo Is main tained at ono point within n fraction of a degree. When tho flatlron Is In uso a largo amount ot current Is per mitted to pass through tho heating colls, but whenever the heat rises un duly a switch automatically introduces tho rcslstanco necessary to out down tho current. Chief Engineer Burgess, of the Hon duras National Railway, giving advice to engineers working in tho tropics, says emphatically, "Don't got lost!" He ndds that a man should no moro think of going out Into a tropical for est without a compass than of going to sea without ono. Without a com pass one has no way of getting his direction.

Ono can toll tho direction of east and west at sun rise and Biinsot, but In tho middle of tho day tho sun is useless as a guldo, because It is almost directly overhead, and often ono may stand In tho shadow ot his own hat.
