AN EXICITING EXPERIENCE "A citizen on Eighth Street had an exciting and unpleasant experience on Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning, says Owen Sound Sun. He came home about eleven o'clock at night, locked the doors and went to bed. About two o'clock Wednesday morning he was aroused by a scream from his wife. Thinking she was suffering from nightmare he told her to wake up. Instead she sat up and screamed again. This time her hus- band sat up in bed, and saw a figure crouching on the other side of the bed. He jumped out and ran aroiuid to his wife's side of the bed but the intruder ran out of the room and down the stairs escaping by the front door which he had Ieft open on enter- ing. The wife was hysterical for some time and has hardly recovered from the shock yet. She says that she felt something touch her foot and immediately kicked out. She felt her foot strike somebody's face and she immediately screamed. The policensen were called but have failed to locate the. guilty party yet, In the dark it was impossible to see he features of the cul prit except that he was a big. Haan." —Wing - lam Advance.

Tailoring and (Phone 103) Men's Furnishings OPPOSITE PUBLIC LIBRARY CORN PLANTING (Experimental Farms Note.) Indian corn, the peerless crop of the mixed farm, has a gradually en- larging sphere of usefulness in the Donsinon of Canada. It is grown most extensively in the province of Ontario; the coral growing line in the province of Quebec is gradually being pushed northward, and in sev- eral district's in the provinces of Man- itoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia -the corn crop is gaining in favour. Ths reliable crop will grow on a wide -range of soil provided always there is good drainage and a plentiful supply of suitable plant food. It is specially adapted to warns, deep loam' soils rich in decaying veget- able matter (humus) underlaid with porous Clay. In the rotation, corn should follow clover hay or pasture. It may also be grown after grain or even follow a hoed crop, provided the soil is rich or a heavy application of manure has been made. Fresh or green barnyard manure is the best plant food material, 12 to 15 tons per acre may be expected to give good returns. The applica- tion may be made in the fall, win- ter or spring. It may be worked in on top of the ploughing or ploughed under. The latter method is usually the most practicable and gives uni- formity satisfactory results when Properly carried out The manure should not be buried too deeply in order that there will be the least possible chance fon: the leaching of valuable plant food constituents to depths in the soil beyond the reach of the ntmedate and futruo crops. The aim of the seed -bed should be to have it deep, moist, clean and fine. Clay land to be used for corn should ordinarily be fall ploughed, turning a fairly deep furrow but no deeper than the productive soil will allow. 'Sands and loans, shallow spring -ploughed, provide .mast fv- onrable conditions for corn. Ploughed under immediately before planting, rho soca, the ,growth of grass and the dressing of manure decompose rapidly, create a ho t -bed or warn condition" in the soil, 'necessary for ofthe seed germination •ho war; t q and tut -rapid growth of the plant, the secret to successful corn grow- ing, iifoisture is a factor which trust be duly considered in all seed -beds. No seed -bed is complete until the surface and sub -surface soil' are connected, with the manure well incorporated so that the soil to where it may be available as required by the grow- ing plant. Rill and row are the two methods of planting. Hill planting three feet cad way is recommended for weed infested ',fields since horse labour can be used to it maximum hs the control of weed growth. It is also advis- able methodwhere seed production "'is the Gins or -in' short season die - bids, sande hill painting is conductive to it quicker maturity of the arop than row planting. Row planting 36 to 42 inches apart, is preferred on land in a good state of, cultivation. No special machin- ery is required since the ordinary seed -drill answers the purpose and in harvesting there is less wear and tear on the corn harvester than is ob- served In harvesting hill planted corn. The rate of seeding is an import- ant consideration. For each hill from 3 to 6 seeds of strong vitality are sufficient. For rows 15 to 20 pounds per acre of high quality seed will usually give a stand thick en- bugh to permit of harrowing. The right time for planting corn depends upon soil and conditions, It should not be planted until ev- ery indication of cold weather is thought to be past. Neither should corn planting be left so late that there is danger of insufficient moisture supply and a too short sea- son for growth., The right time for planting can hardly be explained. The experienced planter feels- "in his bones" that suitable conditions exist. The beginner can acquire this knowledge only by observaton and the excercise of judgement. The range of dates is between May 15th and June 10th. The varieties of corn for ensilage to sow depends upon -the district where seeding is to be done. The hint varieties including Longfellow, Compton's Early and Saltzer's North Dakota, among the earliest maturing varieties, are therefore, suitable for the short season corn growing districts, In the longer season districts besides the Hints al- ready mentioned, the dent varieties, Wisconsin No, 7, Golden Glow, Bai- ley and White Cap Yellow dent prove satisfactory. In the Prairie Prov- inces _.North Western dent is pop- ular,. Choice seed only should be used, this can be most easily procured by selecting from seed purchased on the cob. Test all seed for germin- ation before planting in order that there will be no chance of too thin planting. Place the seed deep en- ough to be in moist soil. Following planting stir the soil -frequently to mulch he SLfa Ca stimulate e th e germination of weed seeds and to destroy weeds After the shoots are through the groUnd begin inter-rowlow cultivation. When the plants are 3 to 4 inches high and if too thick in the mow, use a light dray harrow crosswise of the drills. Keep the plants growing by main- taining a• loose, me]low surface soil, Cultivate deeply at first and as the secondary root systems develop and spread just under the first three or four inches of surface soil between the rows, cultivate shallower in ords er that the root systems will not suffer injury through pruning and thus prematurely check the growth of the crop. s W.
