Mr. a Home Seed Tests' Are Recommended Corn Can Be Readily Tried by Use of Well Known ; "Rag Doll" Plafc 1 By G. U. Dung&n, Associate In Croit Production. Unlyornlty of Illinois. WNU Servlre. With much of fhe seed corn Intended for next spring's planting helow standard because of early frosis and late maturity of the crop last fall, poor stands can be iftvolded only through home testing this winter. Seed corn should germinate at least iK) per cent to assure, a ^good stand, {"respective seed supplies can be tested readily.at home l»,v the use of the well known "rag doll" tester. . This tester Is made by plachig WO grains .of tin? chosen seed stock on "a dampened , cloth, covering the sarnples wjth'another cloth and rolling the. two pieces together loosely;, The tester should be kept damp and at a temperature-9* about 80 degrees. • • • Testing the samples before late winter will give the farmer opportunity tri secure additional seed supplies l>e fore planting , time If the available supply does not measure up ta tlie required germination standards. While It is too late to improve the. germination qualities of corn that was cured improperly after picking In the fall, frequent inspections' of tlie stored supply will help keep the seed In good condition. This is especially necessary if there is an abrupt change from a cold, dry condition to warm, damp .weather. During such a change the moisture condenses and collects on the cold grains ot.corn and may ruin the seed If allowed to remain until the weather again turns cold. A small stove or other heating equipment. In tli£ farm seed room will dry the corn and -prevent Shell damage. , : i ' the FOR SALS FOR SALE--(Several Good Sound 6% First Mortgages on McHenry property.

Build a frame 6 by 6 feet, using 2-inch thick material. The top or north end . of . the frame should be of 2 by 16-inch material and the front 2 by 10 Inches. I'Uild the sides flush with the top and bottom which will give the proper slope for the si>sh. A pit may be dug for the manure or the manure may be placed on tlie ground, built up and the hotbed placed on top. Use approximately 15 inches of fresh horse manure that does not have too much Straw. Fork this over a few times* until it starts to heat, then place it in the pit or pile it square on the ground, place the frame and put In 2 to 2V4 inches of a good rich soil. If the soil is dry, water thoroughly but do not soak. Place the sash on the frame, bank around the sides with manure or soil and in a few days heating will take place. Seed should be sown when the temperature drops to 75 to 80 degrees. Mrs. Herbert Cooney of Woodstock , spent.Tuesday eve'ning here. .

Warbles Resist Salt Some stockmen hare long believed that salt treatments--either dry Bait or brine--are effective in killing grubs or warbles in the backs of cattle. But a scientific test of salt applications showed that they were virtually 4f not entirely Ineffective. J. Stotchlk, of the United States Department of Agriculture, tested a strong brine rubbed over the hair of several animals and found that it did not kill gr'uba. He Injected brine into the holes in the hide and thejgrubft survived. And he rubbed brine" repeatedly over the lumps In the back of a steer from which the hair had been clipped. His conclusion was that the frequent brushlngs were more effective in killing grubs than the brine was. As a result the bureau of animal industry Is not recommending the simple salt "cure" for grubs. It Is simple enough, but it does not cure. FOR SALE--Home grown^extra early- Ohio Seed Potatoes, Fred C. Feltz, " :• :c. • *44-2 FOR SALE--2,000 bu. Pure Bred Wisconsin No. 38 Seed Barley.

A '1,200-pound steer in a year produces 548 pounds of dry matter lor hutgan food and lie is then out of the picture. A dairy cow turning out 18,000 pounds of milk produces 2,200 pounds dry matter for human food; in addition gives birth to a calf and starts out doing the same trick all over again. To produce this amount of milk our dairy cow had to consume upwards of eight or nine to..s of feed in the form of grain, high pro tein concentrates, hay, silage, and pas lure. Here is a factory taking in raw material annually that amounts to ten or eleven times her own weight. Then she tiirns out a product of a highly intricate formi'la that weighs again six or eight times' her own weight.-- Hoard's Dairyman.
