LARGEST and FINEST1"
Mr. Average Farmer, Is your time
worth $4 an hour? That sounds like
get-rieh-quiek scheme, doesn’t It? Well
it isn’t. J. C. Hackleman of the Mis­
souri college of agriculture figures that
you can make that much testing seed
corn.
The average Missouri farmer
raises about twenty-six acres o f corn
each year. He falls to test his seed
corn whereby he loses $1.50 (this is
conservative estimate) an acre.
Mr. Hackleman says that about te
hours of actual labor would be required
to test the seed for the 26 acres. By
such testing the yield can be Increased
at least $1.50 worth.
Hence the
time required to test the seed is worth
about $40, or about $4 an hour. The
more corn a farmer grows the more
money he can make by the test. The
man who raises 100 acres can Increase

This Is
practically clear gain since testing Is
done during late winter or early spring
when the time would otherwise be lost.
Seed corn testing is comparatively
easy. The ears that have been pre­
viously selected for seed are labeled
to correspond to the spaces occupied
by the grnlns from those ears in the
gerraiuator. I f any of the samples of
grain show poor germination, the ear
from which they come can be found
from tlie luhel on the space the grains
occupy, and can be eliminated.
One o f the simplest testers is the
sand box or sawdust. It consists o f a
box about 4 inches deep and 30 inches
square, with about two Inches of sand
or sawdust in the bottom to hold the
moisture or to keep water from stand­
ing nround the corn. A piece o f old
sheeting or other cloth that will ab­
sorb moisture, hut will not allow It to
stand on the surface, should he
stretched over the surface and marked
oft into 2-ineh squares. I ’ut six ker­
nels from various portions o f the mid­
dle of each ear to be tested into one
o f these squares and give the ears and
squares corresponding Inbels.
Cover
the box to prevent drying and keep it
at room temperature— about 70 degrees
Fahrenheit— for six days, then find the
ears from which kernels failed to ger­
minate, throw them into tlie feed box
and retain those that showed u good
strong test.
Figures, based on’ the acreage and
yields in Missouri during the last eight
years, Indicate that the losses incident
to neglect of seed corn testing will
amount to about $11,000.000 this year.
That amount Is worth saving.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authority
to use a drug called freezone, which
the moment a few drops are applied
to any corn or callous the soreness is
relieved and soon the entire corn or
callous, root and all, lifts o ff with the
fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap­
plied, and simply shrivels the corn or
callous without inflaming or even ir­
ritating the surrounding tissue or
skin. A small bottle of freezone will
cost very little at any of the drug
stores, but w ill positively rid one’s
feet of every hard or soft corn or
hardened callous.
If your druggist
hasn’t any freezone he can get it at
any wholesale drug house for you.

Spanish Woman Does Not Lose
Her Maiden Name at Marriage.
The bride's maiden name is valued
in Spain and Is not set aside by mar­
riage. When u Spanish woman mar­
ries she merely adds her husband's
name to tier own. But never does she
lose her Identity by dropping her
name entirely and taking over that of
er husband. And to her Intimate,
she is known more by her maiden
ime than her husband’s.
Morn than that, an unmarried per­
son Is known hy both the mother’s
nd futlier's name, Joined hy the let-
er “y."
That makes the formal
name. Informally, a son, for lnstunee,
is known only hy Ills father's name.
Thus a person may be Smith y
Brown, or Its equivalent, the father
being of one surname, arid the mother
in tier maiden days of the other. When
that person marries, to avoid compil­
ations the mother's name Is dropped,
nd the husband's name tucked on
1th the aid of the prefix “ de.” In
that way the “ señorita” or "señora” Is
unnecessary to distinguish married
from unmarried women.
