Of Iuterest to Farmers. Hampton's Magazine. . jfair Wbitelai d, in Johnson founiy. Indiana, lives a farmer. JIis farm consists of i3Q^atee68, and lie gets up at five o’clock, every jnorning, and ha9 holes in his over* alls. His name ia Leonard B. CIore. 0e is the Corn Kiogof the World. A dozen years ago Mr. Olore be­ gan t« specialize in corn. Today lie sets the world’s pace in this cc- rc;il. He has taken corn prizes all ••he way fr°>n the Johnson eonhty fair, through Indianapolis and Omaha, to national competitions.- Ylith ten ears of White Dent at tbe Gliicago corn sho>v in 1907 he took the sweepstakes. rJ lie Clore family very nearly keeps house with father’s, corn prizes. In the list is everything from a manure-spreader to a pi­ ano, including watch, clock, Btove, mandolin, lawn swing, an automo­ bile, a quarter section of land in Texas, and a $1,000 cash prize. Oue of the incidentals is a silver Joriog cup valued at Mr. Clore is just on the edge of the middle west corn belt. He has his own theories on raising corn. He decided"Oew years ago that instead of spending so much time in improving their land the corn growers should give more thought to improving their breed of torn. AU his efforts have been in that direction.- In a specially built barn he germinates the corn in boxes of earth kept at the right temperature' in early spring Jvy gasolina stoves. Thus he knows belore planting what percentage of the grains will germinate. Two ears of corn may look alike; Out Poor Old .Cook Goite Wrong. Poor old Cook—r-he for whom we yelled and shed big tears, has departed hence—gone where the whangdoodle mourneth for.her de parted oftapriug; and we are Ieft to hold the sack. Itnow turns out that poor old Frediick did not get to the north pole, or even near it, although it is conceded by some of his enemies ,that he got as far north as Portland, Maine. We wouldn't have thought that Dr ' Fredrick was guilty of such deception, but the following dispatch from Copen-, hagen made The Record man open his eyes: : “The report of the special com­ mittee of scientists which the Uni­ versity of Copenhagen appointed to scrutinize Dr. Fiederick Oook’s claims that he had discovered the North Pole was submitted to the consistory of the ,uuiversity, er.* dorscd by that body and given to the public. The report shatters completely, almcst con tern ptiously, the great American. explorer’s- ti­ tle to such a ilisi overy. and fills- tht: officials and people of Den­ mark with chagrin at the figure Denmark is made to assume in the eyes os the scientific world. The public was prepared for a verdict of ‘‘not proven,” but did not ex­ pect its recent hero to be branded as an impostor. . Many still, cling to the belief that Cook acted in fiood faith, but harbored a delu­ sion. Explorers and scientists al­ most unanimously. have Jost faith in Cook’s honesty, while OEe of his warmest supporters, KnutT Eas- nnisseti, the explorer, helped to franie the report. The evening pa­ pers attack Cpok and severely re- thr ^ for. hnii eh; higher than that of the other. Mr. Cloie is also a judge of what it takes to make a perfect eary select­ ing the best ears each fail and planting the hardiest grains in the spring, he has in a great way eh' minated chance in corn growing, o great a judge of corn is he that this December he is to superintend the judging and awarding of $60,- OOO in premiums at different corn shows. He usually averages 100 bushels of corn per acre. The av­ erage this jear is 90 bushels. This is about twenty bushels iuoie than before he began his experiments, bat in addition the quality of his corn has greatly improved. What he has done for InuianarAvhere Ijis methods are followed, may be seen by the fact that tne average yield ior the past ten years is thirty-five bushels, while over the corn belt of the United States for the same period it is only twonty-five. Itis through scientific breeding that this has been brougnt about—the selecting of only tested ears. Through his example and by his talks at fairs and corn institutes the standard of corn in his state Js much higher, and Mr. CJorean his quiet way is teaching a national lesson in the science of corn grow­ ing. Expei iinent stations all over the United Statesv are sending to him for- hisJiigh-bred seed corn, and are using his methods of breed ing and planting, Leonard. -Clore wos born m the county in - which- he now lives forty-two years ago,, on a faijn not three miles from where he now resides. The czar has offered aim a position m the Russian department of agriculture, but he has always been a Hosier,' and always expects to-be. Ifo mon has ever been able to convince his mother in-law that he knows it all.

The rector of the univer­ sity, Dr. Salomonscn, when ques­ tioned as to the possibility of the uhiversity canceling the degree which ir conferred on Dr., Cook, said that no decision had been reached, bnt he thought that the degree could be withdrawn in the same way as a government could deprive a person of an order ob­ tained under'false pretenses.” ^ U e are just mean enough to say that we don’t believe Pearry got any nearer to that pole, than Cook ’!is a pity that others did not get busy and make a good thing out of th»t graft, ’.t is Said that Cook ‘ skiddoiieft’’ with at leist a hundg% red thousanil pluuks; The Doctors And Their Dues. The Baltimore Snn says: Few: communities ever realize how much thej owe the doctors—and few peo­ ple who do realize how much they owe, ever pay up. If every doc tor could collect his lull fee for all the work- he does each could have his own automobile and town • and, country houses. But the doctor goes along his way and uncom­ plainingly bears the sorrows, bur­ dens and distress of a large part of tht .population. He knows that he is a Very present help “in time of trouble; 'he know.s that he is performing a.very real and practi­ cal Service to humanity, and that is one of the^reatest rewards of a profession that receives more hon or and appreciation than it does material compsnsation. [Most of th& doctors in this part of the woods own their own pala­ tial homes and travel almost ex clusivel.v in their own automobiles. They: perform a great service to humanity, but the majority of ’em get inighiy good pay Jor n. Ed .] A Unique Check.

Wall Co., at North Cooleemee last Tues­ day. While this company has only been in business about two years, yet we venture the assertion that they do as much business, if not rrore, than any store'irf Davie coun­ ty. Mr. 0. C^Wall clpver man­ ager of the CQtnpanj^ tells us that they sold during Christmas week, more than fifteen hundred dollars worth of holiday goods. The com­ pany has just installed a new parcel system, which insures prompt ser­ vice and satisfied customers. This i s the only store in the county thus equipped. Mr. Wall attributes his success to two things. First, having at all times a complete stock of up- to-date goods which the people need, and second, telling the public wha t he has and what it will cost them. This firm advertises the year round through the county papers, with circulars and bill board advertising. They spend mofe money in thisman- ner than any two other stores in the county. As a result of this judicious advertising, they number their patrons by the ^thousands, peo­ ple traveling from a distance of 20 and 30 miles to trade with them. A visit to this marnmoth store will convince any one that it is the lead­ ing store in this whole section, even surpassing many of the department stores in the large • cities. A large and varied stock of goods is to be found in every department of this bik department store, and it is al­ most impossible to call for an ar­ ticle whivih they car.not supply. A large p»nd efficient number of clerks are employed to serve the throngs who daily visit this establishment. We-were impressed with the court count of the main drive belt break­ ing- Mr. W. L.

The public is made to feel that they are always welcome, whether they buy or not. Before closing this article, we wish to mention the big stock of shoes handled by this company. In looking over their stock, we saw :shoes marked at $1.95, which will icompare favorably with shoes that •most shoe stores will charge you from $3.50 to $5 for. A visit to the store of The 0. C. Wall Go., will not only prove interesting and instruc­ tive, but will mean many, dollars saved should you do your shopping there.

Auy person o' good judgment who has received an ordinary edu­ cation can readily pass the test to. be given applicants for census enu­ merators’ places to be held on toat- urday, February 5, Ihe date final­ ly set by United States Census Di­ rector Durand. This will be a coinfortiug assurance to the several hundred thousand pe:sons who will apply for the places. Thetestwill be an eminently 2>ractu':il one, similar to that ap­ plied to applicants for the twelith census. Itwillcousist of filling out a sample schedule of popula tion from a description, in nferra tive form, of typhical families; and in the case of cunmeratow whose work will be in the rural districts, they will be called upon to fill out an additional sample schedule of agriculture from information furn­ ished by the census board.

Speaking of Advertising. , A”good ad, one that catches the notice of people, draws trade. Folks kuow instinctively that a store that advertises and does it well, has something they want, at, prices they will- like. You could not drive this modern world of customers into a iiiossback estab­ lishment that doesn’t think enough of itself or of the trade to use pub­ licity as furnished by newspapers. Greensboro merchants, we note, have declared against all forms of. advertising’save that of newspa: pers, which they assert is the best and cheapest and always the- most sitisfactory.-L exingtou Dispatch..

A Receipt For Curing Meat. ; Not all the people who kill meat know how to cure it to best advan­ tage, judging by ihe home-cured meat found on the market. Henct the followiug recipe, sent to the Concord Times by a subscriber In - ing in Illinois, is printed for what it is worth: “For 1,000 pounds of pork take 3.0 quarts of salt.

If the farmer,ad.nU Ieraws ins Inilter with lard or Iearestoo nmch water or salt in it, toe customer wi?l find him out and quit trading with him.

It is wonderful to see what persistent energy will do in a life­ time.by working steadily along some gi ven line of well-planned en­ deavor. Success comes in multitudinous forms. In our boyhood days we counted generals and statesmen as' the only successful deople. It was thought that success came with making a great stir in the world. But how different it seems now! Somewhomake the greatest stir have been the greatest failures and get the least out of life The quiet farmer who has made a good mod­ est living and comes down to old age with all his necessary wants provided for, is a successful man. Heisoften more successful than other men who handle millions of dollars, -Ifhe has lived right and cared Ior his family and passed his days in harmonious intercourse with his own and those arouud him—has tried to deal justly with, all and make everybody' hajyjy— that man is a success. He may not be rich enough to move to town. He may not be worth more than a few thousand, or even a few hundred dollars, and yet he may have lived a complete and satisfactory aud successful life. I have seen such men, and yon have seen them. Yes, the new year, as we have said, comes to us full of glorious opportunities. All depends upon how we shall improve them. We should at once complete our plan of work for the yenr—make cer­ tain about ail the crops that are to be grown and arrange to grow them better. One-^great point WlroiiRfiStrtirHiake theviandbetter; make it more productive by put ­ ting more humus- into it.

When learned physicians said the. patient must die, it cured: Sulphate; of zinc, one grain; foxglove (digitalis) one grain; half a teaspoonful of su­ gar. Mix with two tablespoon- 'fuls of water. When thoroughly mixed, add four ounces ofw ater. Take a teaspoonful every^ho hr. Sierdisease will disappear in Ive hours. : For a child, small­ er doses according to its age. If I countries would compel physicians j to use this, there would be no need ; of pest-houses, Ifyou value ad j vice, use this for that terrible dis- !ease.” Thecorrect dose is: Six j mojths old 5 drops; 3 years old 15 j drops; 6 years old 20 drops; 12 I years old 30 drops; 13 years old all the conteuts.

There is one church in Greater JTew York where o.ily gold and silver is wanted in the collection boxes. Itisthe Baptist Temple in Brooklyn, of which theBev. W. I. Sonlherton is (he acting pastor. At the service last Sunday night lie issued a notice, according to a report in a New York paper, that only gold and silver coins woiild ■! be acceptable in the contribution I boxes. I Wasn’t that a rather bold bid for money? We have heard it said that one reason why the poor are seen so seldom at the churches i is that they are not able to dress as well as the wealthy and well-to members of the congregations, and do not feel comfortable in siicb well dressed assemblages. There is something in that reason—that is, it probably has some founda­ tion—but neither the ministers nor ; the congregations are to be blamed N ow , w h y not blow y o u r- . j-0), wanin g j,(j well dressed at. self off to an an n u al sub- !church, but what are we to say of scription to th is p a p e r?

Mr. Southei ton’s notice wasn’t heeded. There were gold and silver coins in his contribu­ tion brxes, but along with them were plenty of cents and nickels. ] In fact, it is stated that most of the coins were bright, new cents. It doesn’t seem to be out of place to say that the Rev. Mr. Souther- ton is lacking in judgment, if not in tine religion. A BAD EXAMPLE C r a m p s Thousands of laclies suffer agonies every moptli.

After a sorrow- Bl leview of his afflictions he ex ’!aims: IiJIan that is born of woman is „{ few days and full of trouble.” According to the doctors of our tim e , he is also fall of microbes, just thiuk of it. From the cradle to the grave man’s life is menaced by first one kind of microbe and then another. He has scarcely be­ gan bis infantile life before it is discovered that “baby’s got the hives,’1 and honey and alum are forced down its little throat. He has hardly recovered from the “hives” before roseola, measles, whooping cough or something else attacks him, and he is subjected to more nauseous ‘ ‘dope.’ ’ Grand­ ma gives him ‘■yarb.tea” and par­ egoric, yet, in spite of all the dos­ ing he gets, he frequently persists in clinging to life. From the infant stage he enters that of “the whining school boy, Kith hia satchel and shining morn­ ing face, creeping like snail un­ willingly to school.” Here a- new* series of perils beset him, for he learns to play baseball and foot­ ball. Ifhe escapes the former with no greatee misfortune than a few broken fingeis, he stands a good chance to be permanently disabled by the latter, if indeed he does not lose his life, Theu he has to run the gauntlet of a hazing experience irhenhe enters college, again en­ dangering Iifeior limb. After running all the risks of in­ fancy and childhood, if he eats too much mince meat, raw oysters or some other abomihation. and takes a severe pain in his abdomen, the diagnosis rendered is that it is a Iiad case of appendicitis, and he rauSt be carved open instanter or furnish a job for the undertaker; if be still has sufficient vitality Iaft to get upon his pins again, he lS not yet- through with his trou- b|es> for he is told that a newly discovered disease called pellegra has appeared in the therapeutic firmanent, and that corn bread is. Ibe father of it. If the poor wretch las formed the corn bread habit liO dust cut it out at once or take obances of suddenly departing from ^ n world via the pellegra route. He must eat cake, crackers or ba- ^er ® liread ii he would escape Pmiegra, When it is found that he still ^s8t8 on holding on to life, al- 0 gh a victim of “that tired feel- inS so prevalent in warm weatb- Jjr the doctors and scientists fill 111 full oi fear and consternation J telling him he is harboring a e* million hookworms in his skin mteStines.

G Sanfprd SonCo. ask that old but highly appropri­ ate question: “Is life worth liv­ ing!” “Is the game worth the candle!” When I reflect upon w hitthe average American boy has to pass through, my heart is filled with pity for him. He had better been born an Eskimo and lived upon snow and seal flesh in _. hut built of ice, than to run the risk of so many fearful ailments that civilized life is heir to. Nor is the American girl in any better fix than her brother. She is li­ able to all the infai tile ailments that lip j wait for the boy. She escape the perils of baseba’l, foot­ ball, cannon firecrackers and haz- ing, but the tremendonBly big hats she wears and tight squeezing of corsets, to which fashionable so- .ety make her a martyr, offset her brother’s troubles. Whilehe eats raw oysters and drinks high­ balls, she eats ice cream and pie and sips soda water or other use­ less liquids. She has the- same chance to attract hookworms as he has, provided, as a child, she goes barefoot in summer. If she is ad­ dicted to the corn bread habit, pellegra may bear her .body to the silent tomb upon just as short a notice as it docs the boy. There is no escape for either. To cap the climax, she may set her-own cap in vain for the young man she love9 or live an old maid. Should she escape the life of sin­ gle ionelii.ess, she may have the worst misfortune of being cajoled into marrying an American dude or a foreign count, neither of whom will ever count for much In the battle of life. From almost any viewpoint we may take of 1% life is beset with' perils from the cradel to the grave. Many, if not most, of the so-called accidents and misfortunes of exis tence are the result of our own carelessness, viciousness or stub- bornesB. Butforonr innate Btu pidity we would acquire much wisdom from'observing the errors of others and avoiding them. As a matter of fact, however, we learn comparatively little from observa­ tion—far IeBS than we should. As costly as the school of experience is, the large majority of mankind acquire most of life’s lessons there­ in. Every individual almost must get up against the hard experi­ ences of life for himself before he really learns what they are. As boys we have listened to old sol­ diers relate their experiences of army life and its hardships, and have imagined that we understood all about it, when as a matter of fact we knew nothingl ifWe - had some vague, theoretical ^idhas of war, such as are Ioriiied from read­ ing histories and looking -at pic­ tures of battles^ but nothing but the actual experience of military life can fully acquaint one with the true meaning of war. Even Gen. Sherman’s definition of it conveys but an imperfect meaning to us, It is the same way in the battle of life. Tou may tell the little child that fire will burn, but he doesn’t realize the fact until he has put his hand into it. You may tell the young man that glut- toni-j will give him indigestion, and tell the joung woman that tight snoes and other tight appli­ ances will injure her feet and her health; but only about one Iu a thousand will bare the- wisdom to take your warning and advice, Truly, it is a pity we do not learn more from onr own observa­ tion and the experiences of others than we do; but. we just- somehow don't do it. W e are not, built that way. • . . Mocksville, N. C., Dec. 20, '09. Vick’s FamilyRemedies Co.,Greensboro, N.

This year .Mr. .Sellers gathered thirty bales of- cotton off thirtv acres. He says had the season been favorable and had it been a full crop he wonld have made a bale and a half to the acre! Over- and above all expenses, Mr. Sel­ lers cleared $1,000 from his cotton crop, In addition to this he made 00 bnshels of corn! He makes all his own supplies and buys nothing on his farm.: He never sells cot­ ton and spends the money to buy corn, meat and flour and other supplies. Mr. Sellere tells The Expressthat hecan raise cotton at a cost of 4 cents per pound and corn at 12i cents per bushel. He nnderstandahow to cultivate the soil and secure the best results with a small amount of labor. Mr. Sellers makes a study of his busi­ ness j ust as the professional man studies his profession. We would like to see more farmers like Mr. Sellerf come to Lee county.—San­ ford Express.

While a yakt majority even of the well-to-do farmers ol the coun­ ty have disposed of practically all of ,their cotton this season at the flattering prices of the past, lihere is one successful planter near Hun­ tersville, Mr. John W. Cross, who has still in his possession 125 bales of cottGn, together with the seed from that number of bales. If Mr. Cross were to sell his holdings today at 16 cents a pound for his cotton and 50 cents a bushel for his seed, he would receive for his cotton $10,000 and for his seed $1,875. Buthe hasnot jet been tempted by the seductive prices which these., markets have been flashing across his vision and is still holding on to the faith that the future will show him some­ thing better. Mr. Cross is the representative of a class of Mecklenburg farmers who have made money on their crops, who have followed advanc­ ed methods of fertilization and cul- tivation, and who are enriching themselves year'after year In ad­ dition to securing that peculiar enjoyment Which abounds In the farm life.

It is not a pleasant task to pub- Iijh a newspaper, let it be ever so small of’ iteignificant. Aside from . the usual amount of cursings that an editor receives for stopping or not stopping your paper, or for ask­ ing you to settle up, he has many unpleasant duties to confront. He . must needs deal with death on one side and destruction on the other; His duties require him to write the death notices of his loved ones, his friends and his enemies. His pencil must tell of the wounded the sick and the suffering; the horrors of the fires, the floods and the horrible ac­ cidents on land and sea. The editor’s duties compel him to face the dark­ est side of life. Hem usttellofall the calamities whether his subscrib- e .*s read them or not.

Unlessa paperis tilled with murder and accidents the, remark is too often made that the paper is no good, it has no news in it. To a great majority of people, good news is no news at all. The Re;ord tries to please its reader?, bu t it does riot go out of its way to publish all the horrors 6®^ e t?day that happen throughout the coun­ try. It has too much sadness and sufferings and deaths to report in its oviTi county, among its own peo­ ple. The editor’s work is not all filled with sunshine and gladness. A Generous Deed. We received Saturday froni a Re­ cord subscriber at Brooklyn, N .Y., $5, to be turned over to the family of Mr. j. F. Broom, who was so se­ riously injured two weeks ago, of which mention was made; in our last issue, with an appeal to the people in behalf of the wife and six little children who are dependent on. the husband- and father for support. We have turned the tnoney over to the afflicted family, who wish to thank the generous-hearted.. gentle­ man for his noble gift. Any money sent to The Record for this family^ will be promptly turned over to them. Mr. Broom is s’owly recov­ ering, but weeks and months will elapse before he can do any work.

Ias Nature The great success of Dr. Pierce’s Gotden Medical Dis- covery in curing weak stomachs, Wasted bodiea.weak Iungst and obstinate and lingering coughs, is based on the recognition of the fundamental truth that “Golden Medical Discovery” supplies Nature, with body-build­ ing, tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, in con­densed and concentrated form. With this help Nature supplies the necessary strength to the stomach to digest food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering obstinate coughs.

How Did It Get There? s ' Doubtless many readers of The Yellow Jacket, have read those cases where a woman ran a needle into her finger and about twenty years later it worked its way ont through her big toe. Wilkes coun­ ty, !forth Carolina, famishes a more wonderful case still. One of our school teachers three years ago made the mistake oi pinning her belt with a needle and the needle ran into her body and could not be found; just the other day it was discovered coining out ot the arm of a young man who. was keeping company with her.at the time of the accident. We don’t know how the needle was recognized as the same one unless by the expres sion of its eye, How it got from the young lady’s waist to the young man’s arm is a mystery that baf fles science.—Yellow Jacket.

V e is som ething a b o u t th e ImcteTobeyin Home and Farm, re is i the form that Ihave always I hare tried often to feeling and ascertain it, but my efforts have |W on dfflired Ianaifze ■the why °t L a y s foiled- From seven year I to ten your U ncle Tobey lived I- town. Tbe Hjalatce of blB boJr' Ild days were spent on the farm. Ilcanrememfoei' now that during tose three year? I lived in town I ■ended the life of the farmer boy. I have tried to explain this pref­ erence for the farm boy on account Lniyardeot loreforthe country, Lr its fresh air, its sunshine, .its Igreenfields and rippling streams. uiavet Bot that does not account for it altogether, for I remember that I Lferred the country boy aB a Andthiswasnotaltq Ltber because they were better L s. although I think, as a class-, L y are. But, there are some very [had boys grown up in the country, and some very good ones are reared jin town in spite of the many evil temptations which surround them. Butthe coantry boys will not al­ ways be country boys, and not all of them will be farm ers. And this leadsyour UucleTobey up to the point of what he started out to say. [Thecountry boy, lik e the town hoy, should choose a vocation for life. If the farm er boy could be satisfied, if his tastes and inclina- Itkms did not run in a different di­ rection it would be better for him to remain on the farm. But it might uot be best for humanity.. [Many, if not most o f the men who helped to set up the mile- a of progress in the world- aein their youth "boys oh ' the" rm. Ifthefnrnier boy prefers some [other calling than that of agricul­ ture in all its phases, he should [exercise great care choosing what [that vocation should be. There is io trade or profession in which the Ihcginner can start at tbe top of the [ladder. The most successful men jin the world began at the bottom. on, XVebsterand Lincoln jwere farmer boys. The most in- Iteresting chapters in the lives of Jsnecessiul men are those in which Iare recounted their most heroic boggles to win success. Ihareoften thought that the Jtown or city boy has the advantage ■over the country boy in choosing a ■vocation. The farmer boy sees the Jglitter of euerything on dress pa- lrade, or on the stage of action-. He Jheare the blare of trumpets and is Jcarried off his feet by the glow of Jbright colors, fhe city boy has been behind be scenes. Hehaspeeped under Jfoetentinto the dressing rooms.

Fortu­ nate is he who comes ont of them with a pure heart—an nnsnllied character. Mountain climbers scale the. Alps for the exaltation of tri­ umph. How much more glorious is the struggle to fit one’s self for the good of humanity. There is demand for honest men in every trade and profession. The great­ est failure is the man who wins success in any trade or profession by the use and practice of dishon- methods. He not only cheats him- self, but he cheats the higher law of his own conscience, and what­ ever his outward appearance may be, however the ,world may ap­ plaud, he is an empfy sepulcher to himself. The surroundings of a country boy fit him for a high position in any sphere of life. He is full of hope, and hope inspires courage. Out-of-door work has developed his muscles and developed him in­ to a fine specimen ofphysical man­ hood. Dissipation has not cloud ed his brain. The whole country is proud of its farmer boys, and much is being done, and more will be done, to induce them to- remain on'the farm. But some will go. A -few words to these: -Boys, beware! Thetown and city have their, at­ tractions. They also have their temptations. The dens of vice are open to lure you on to. destruction. They appeal to your every sense. The boy that listens to them is lost. Competition in all the trades and professions—is fierce. It is hard to win at best. But patience, endurance, courage, hopefulness and hard work will win if you are honest and true to your own man- hoodi'Hse'thetmuragewhichthe free life of- the country gave you. Shun the gilded dens of vice and sin. Keep good company; ,Be courteous to all and familiar with few. Seek the advice of good men and women. And den’t be , in a hurry about getting married. There will always be a stock of good girls on band. The supply will never be exhausted. Learn your trade or profession first and then you have something tangible to offer your would- be _ wife. Science has demonstrated that a woman connot live on love alone.. Don’t take out license to starve a woman. Have something saved up to start with. It will save you many a heartache and your young wife from shedding many a tear.

As I am receiving many inqnir- ies concqrning my acre on which I produced 226t bushels of corn, I gladly accept your invitation to write a short article about it. The acre was not all that I could have wished for. Bight yoars-ago it produced only five bushels. Last year it produced eight bushals of wheat,-, ,..But I began preparing it last year by-planting peas, from which I cat the hay. On the 12th of March, 25 2-horse loads of cow manure were applied. It was then plowed 12 inches deep and sub- soiled.-6 ; inches deeper. On the 9th of Aprtl, 20 more loads of ma-: nure were-spread, and the field waB plowed and. suh-soiled- again— this time 20 inches deep. Three days later .800 pounds of acid phos­ phate and 2,000- .pounds of cotton seed meal were spread and har­ rowed in, The corn was planted 8 inches apart with the rows 41 inches apart, and 600 pounds of an 8 3 3 fertilizer put in the row. May 20th, 400 pounds of cotton seed meal, 400 pounds acid phos­ phate, 800 pounds kainit and 200 pounds nitrate of soda were put along the rows. On the 27th, 200 pounds cotton seed meal, 2C0 pounds acid phosphate, 400 pounds kainit and 200 pounds nitrate of soda were broadcasted and har­ rowed: in. June 9th, 200 pounds cotton seed meal, 200 pounds acid phosphate, 400 pounds kainit and 200 pounds nitrate were applied. The yield was 2265 bushels. The manure applied was worth $56.25; the fertilizer cost $58 89, and the total cost of the crop was $139,027 I attribute mucfir of 'ffiy^Jehccess to seed selection. I have kept- a seed patch seven., yearsp.'and on this patch I have year by year planted my best seed, selecting the seed from the best ears with a.yiew to good size andjquality and pro Jific type.-. I do rot believe that more than.four ears can he. safely made on a stalk, and this can be done ODly under the most favor­ able .conditions. B utif we make four ears in the seed patch, and breed the seed to that type, the average in the main field will tend to run above two ears. This was the plan I worked on, and it has come ou t all right. I believe I had ,the benefit of the most prolific seed to be had. And I know the seed had all the chance that I could give. J am now making plans to show what can be done profitably on 20 acres. I will make no promises, but next year I hope to be able to report on a yield of 20 or 30 acres. I believe that we can do a grea^ deal by increasing our average yields all along the line,; and that the way to do it is by the use of prolific seed stock, good manuring and faithful and intelligent culti­ vation, Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is a very- valuable medicine for throat and lung troubles, quickly relieves-and cures pain­ful breathing and .a dangerously sounding cough which -indicates: congested lungs.

LaBt week a mournful wail went up from the Democrat office—Backs weeping for sour kraut. He was J dread folly smashed up simply hungering and thirsting.af- ter kraut, and none was to be found. Hebrouglit his troubles into the columns of his paper, and thus reachedthe sympathetic hf art of a humane subscriber who broke into the editor’s office with Artemins Ward's famous express­ ion, “ Why Uiwe weeps? What is the reason for all (his thusness?” Making known bis sorrowful plight i he editor was presented with a quart can of kraut upon which he has feasted continually since. Ed­ itors are acchstomed to receiving cordwood and vegetables onsub­ scription bnt the free gift of canned kraut was a fact never dreamed of by the most sanguine, Banks has thus been favored beyond his peers and we are tempted to be jealous. We are not selfish but the thought of a brother editor feasting upon brantdumplings makes the temp tatiou to envy, almost irresistable. However, we shall endeavor to re­ joice with our brother in his good fortune aiid feel proud that he has been thus encouraged so soon after taking up his residence in the best town in the State.
