Pick only the ears that are well matured and especially those with dry husks, as they evi- dently were not injured by the frost. 1- " I •oon 118 picked hang them up to <»>{.*>i'-..'-' dry in a well ventilated place. Do not hang where they will be exposed to the sun or rain, the windmill and sunny side of a building being a bad place to dry seed corn, as the heat from the sun and excessive moisture on the corn will weaken the germ by starting it to grow. Hang each ear separately, as they anil mold if hung so that the ears will touch eaah other. As soon as well dried store it in a dry place where it will not freeze. In storing it keep the ears separated so that the air can circulate freely about them. This will prevent any molding and keep it drier. Select seed corn from last year's crop. Those who are fortunate enough to have some of last year's corn on hand should go over it care­ fully and pick out all that will do for seed, as it will be more ppt to "grow better next spring than seed saved from this year's crop. Store it in a dry place where it cannot freeze. Keep it in the ear so that each ear can be tested for germination next spring. The saving of seed corn NOW is an important matter and especially from varieties that have been grown in this county and done well here for several years. TVjere is enough seed in the county for next year's use if it is carefully taken care of now and it will be well worth while to any one who has it to do so, as • good seed corn will demand a high , price next spring. . ^ Save all the seed you can and do i#, now.v Delos L».

The work was done in varied soil, part of which was wet, part in hard pan and part in dry gravel. The purification plant consists of a tank with six sand filters. • The tank was divided into two compartments, each having 43,200 gallons capacity, and a dosing tank of 7,000 gallons capacity. In this dosing tank were placed six 12-inch automatic Miller siphons. The sand beds are 50x75 feet and 2% feet in depth with pro­ visions for extending them as the amount /^^sewage produced may re­ quire. The main sewer connecting the city with the plant is 18 inches in diameter and 1,400 feet long and op­ erates under a low pressure. This plant, exclusive of land, cost $11,- 980.00. The improvement, consisting of the sewers and purification works, were all paid for by special assess­ ment bonds levied over a sewerage district; the average cost |>er front foot of residence property was $.76 where sewers were furnished and $.14 where sewers were notr furnished, but where they can be had by extend­ ing branches as they may be required. The city of Woodstock, with a popu­ lation of 4,350 persons, in 1908 con­ structed a system of sanitary sewers, covering practically the entire city. The final estimates issued to &£ con­ tractor show the following: ^ 4,724 feet of 21-inch sewer ^ -r at $1.48 $ 6,991.52 1,272 feet of 20-inch sewer at $1.80 1,740 feet of 18-inch sewer at $1.88 2,861 feet of 15-inch sewer at $1.05 3,900 feet of 12-inch sewer at -.80 10,584 feet of 10-inch sew­ er at .84 36,091 feet of 8-inch sewer at .65 4,090 feet of 6-inch sewer at .51 255 manholes .$25.00 18 flush tanks $68.50 970 cubic yards of extra excavation in the outlet ditch at .25 Additional work and extras 2,289.60 3,271.20 3,004.50 3,120.00 8,890.56 28,459.15 2,085.90 7,140.00 1,233.00 242.50 225.07 ADDITIONAL PERSONALS ' Total $61,727.93 In this system the 122 miles of sewers without the*, purification plant cost $4,993.00 per mile. The puri­ fication plant, which consisted of a concrete tank with 8 sand filters, each 55x80 feet, and ^11 equipments, cost $10,874.00. The high cost per mile was caused by having to carry the sewage so far out of town to reach an available location on which to place the plant. {The surface of the town is badly broken and many of the sewers are deep.

HURRAH, ANOTHER RAILRAOD To Be Built Between Waukegan and - ' -Woodstock ; The time ¥6r building raftroadp is with us again and the following article, taken from last Thursday's Waukegan Gazette, sounds good, even tho the road may never materialize t Waukegan is to have a new rail* road. Today at Springfield the sec* retary of state had filed with him papers for the incorporation of the Waukegan and Woodstock Traction company with a nominal capital stock, of $50,000. The road is to be constructed front this city to Woodstock. It is declared that the plans for the incorporation of the company have been going on for some time, hut the filing of the papers today was the first intimation that the public had of the proposotion. The following men are named as the incorporators, all of them being residents of Chicago: L. C. Roberts, C. A. Spenny, H. A. Hirst, Thomas Heworth, Michael Nelson, F. C. Nick# els and F. E. Corless. , The principal offices of the company are to be in Chicago. It is not stated just when the work of constructing the road is to be started, but it is expected that *it will not be before spring. The line, it is declared, will fill a long felt want in that county, as for some time the need of such a road has been apparent here. -f :--1 _ . Mrs. Karges as Hoatess\ Mrs. F. J.
