Recent .experiments at the Iowa ex periment station show that tho cur rent opinion of farmers that tho butts and tlna of the ears should bo reject ed In" selecting seed corn was correct In Uils tesl tho result was a percent age of germination of 02.0 for tips, 8S.0 for middles and G13. ror ouns. 'inu shows plainly a less degree of vitality In the misshapen butt nnd tip kernels than In the symmetrical and unironn koruels from tho middle of the car. A further continuation of the test showed a similar difference In early growth in favor of tho kernels from tho middle of the ear. The best way to select seed corn Is In the ear, for tho conformation of tho ear is ns Important ns that of tho ker nel. Ixng. close nttlng kernels aro wanted. So also are cars well tilled at the ends nnd ns tirnrly ns posslblo cylindrical In form, which gives a lar ger per cent of nonnnl sized kernels, for ns tho taper Increases tho length and size of the kernels decrease. Seeds men rarely ship seed corn long dls tnnccs In the car, but when they do they ship better corn than that wblcii Is she ed. This advice, tiicrerore, np plies to homo selection of seed rather than to that shipped in from long uis tnnccs. Malch I'or Orrlinril. Trees usually ennnot grow nnd ripen a crop of apples nnd fruit buds nt tho snmo time. Especially If suffering from drought they often do not mature tho crop of apples. If this bo true, which every observing tnnu must admit, why not mulch? I fear that our great ad visers havo strayed away from nature -nt any rate, In regard to trees. Na ture Is a great teacher. If any ono will go Uito the prlmltlvo forests, ho will seo how nature has provided for the trees-mulch In abundance six to eight Inches deep, humus nnd moisture, with fertility Inexhaustible. Tho armies of trees have nourished for thousands of years and will continue If not disturb ed. This Is my Ideal condition-to have it under my trees at least out to tho area of tho branches. Anything will answer for mulch that grows opt of tho ground If so decomposed as not to be course enough to bo In tho way about tho orchard. If tho ground Is poor, spread manure ovor It tlrst T. P. Vcr gore In Rural Now Yorker. Milk For He ik. ' I havo fed thousands of cans of milk to hens and chickens nnd never but once suspected that It Injured them, aaya O. W. Mopes, "tho lien Man." In this caso n number of remnants of cans, some of them much older than others, wero mixed together. This ap parently poisoned tho hens, so that a number of them died. Tho first few feeds of mtlk will often have a laxatlvo effect on tho bowels, but I do not be- Iovq this Is Injurious any moro than is tho laxatlvo effect of tho first fow feeds of fresh grass upon n cow. Wo would hardly think of refraining from turning our cows out to grass because of tho laxatlvo effect sura to follow. Hweet milk seems to havo a moro pro nounced effect than thick or loppered milk. With young chicks in brooders nuy looseness of bowels Is objectiona ble If It can bo avoided. Wo uao no medicine of any kind. Louisiana Endeayorers DunKlo, Ln., Aug. 28. This place" has capitulated to an invasion of en thusiastic young people gathered from ovory nook and corner of Louisiana to attend tho annual Btato conven tion of tho Christian Endeavor socio ty A thrco days- program has been prepared, and In the way of entertain ment, nothing has been left undone that would conduco to tho success of tho convention.
