The ears should be taken inside as soon as husked and kept away from any rain and frost until dried, but should not be dried quickly close to a stove. Free circula- tion of air is always necessary to dry corn quickly and well. This can be had by hanging the ears with twine or by the husks,* or by placing the ears oh specially made seed -corn racks.

Theta who can ;Mould go into the fields and eelect seed -corn as soon as the corn is fully matured and the grain and fodder, To control white -grabs, plow the infested soil deeply before October I, and while plowing turn the poultry or hogs into the field to destroy the grubs. , Lay .aside the apples •that fall off keeping qualities. .

Say, one has the marketing of the eggs, another buying the grain feed for the stock, and still another -the buying oe groceriee for the house- hold. There is no better, way of de- veloping good business 'qualities. As Soon as our beans are fairly ripe we 'pull' thern, stack them around stakes driven into the ground.); leave them till dry, then poundthem out in a big barrel or tub. If there are not enough to pay for getting out the fanning -mill, they can be cleaned well by pouring them ,from one dish to another when a strong. wind is blow- ing. When one-quarter of the kernels of buckwheat are fairly well hardened, got out the harvesting tools. The rest will ripen,' and the crop will thus be out of ea way of frost. Well -Peeked Silage Keeps Best. Distributing silage in the sild is frequently neglected. Unless the blower has a, distributor attachment there is a tendency for the cut corn to fall in one place in the silo; the finer and lighter portions of the stalks are frequently blown to the outside and the heavier parts, ears and butts of stalks; are deposited in the centre thus causing an uneven distribution of grain and stalk and a consequent uneven quality of silage. Uneven dis- tribution is frequently the cause of soft places, and air pockets, which later result in spoiled silage. When the lighter' portions are blown to the outside they do not pack well and the silage spoils near the wdll. Such spoilage is -often attributed to the silo. Packing the silage is equally as im- portant as even distribution. Good silage can be had only by uniform packing and uniform distribution of the corn. The entire surface, especi- ally the outer edge, should be packed firmly. The large cutter with the corres- • ponding large capacity frequently saves money in filling the silo, but it may result in a waste of the storage capacity of the silo, for if the silo is filled rapidly the corn, has little stiine to settle. Slow filling allows the corn to settle as is stored, with the result that more corn can be placed In a given space. To overcome this disadvantage of rapid filling woven wire may be extended above the top of the silo, thus increasing its cap- acity until the silage can settle. Pa- tent roofs are made which serve the same purpose. Corn cut at the proper stage should require no additional water. When the crop has become too dr, water may be run into the blower of the cutter. Where there is a tractor on the Harvesting Soybeans. Where sown merely for hay, soy- beans should be cut after the pods are formed and have grown consider-, ably, but before they have matured. Tf the plants are left until the pods are mature the leaves will thed badly, and the stems will become too hard and woody for the best quality of hay, An ordinary mowing machine with a side delivery attachment or self - rake reaper, or deli- ordinary mowing - machine without any attachments, can be used. Cure the vines in the swath and 'windrow as much as possible, finishing up in the cock. Great care should be used so that the vines will be exposed to direct sunlight as little as -possible after they have thoroughly wilttd in the swath. Otherwise, many of the leaves will shed. Handling should be done, if possible, when the vines are slightly damp. When soybeans are M be cut for seed as well as for hay, they should be cut after the pods are ripe but be- fore they have dried sufficiently for the beans to pop out. The vines should _cured as already mentioned, reduc- lig the handling to the Minimum so that there will be but little, if any, shattering of the beans. After the hay has been thoroughly dried the beans may be threshed out with an ordinary threshing machine, or with a husker and shredder. Usually it will be necessary to reduce the speed so that there will not be any splitting of the beans. After threshing, the beans 'should be spread out evenly in a dry place where 19., free circulation of air takes place. Soybeansvines have a high feeding value. Judging from the composition this hay is as rich or richer than al- •falfa hay. There is no,question but the stock will relish it as well as any other hay produced on the farm, if cut at the stage of development indi- cated. Keep the hustlers—those that are on range early and go to roost with full crops. The high -egg -yield bens usually melt late. When weeding out flocks a good place to begin is with the hens that ate not thrifty and active. Old hens often are better working meInbers of the feathered family than those that are physicelly weak all the time. Oath are goed eeed at any time. They have a fine value, but cannot be fed exclusively. Another good grain is barley. At first the hens may not take kindly to barley, but they thoo learn to like ,it, end it makes eggs and flesh rapidly. Keep all hens as long as they are profitable. This calls for close at- tention and the stody of each indi- vidual hen, but it is work that pays. The man, who turns off evety hen that reaches the age of two years is pretty sure to sacrifice some of his best layers.

Rying near the top prevents twisting. Equal distribution of the armloads of corn around a Shock is important. An equal distribution, with all the stalks slanting toward the centre, forms. a conical stormphof shale, having each corn -stalk acting as a brace eto hold th% shock erect. With more weight of corn on one side than on the opposite side, the shock is like; ly to, lean or go down. Twisted and fallen shooks are difficult to handle and to husk. • - The Way He Made Sales. I knew a man who. had more sheep and lambs than he knew what to do with, and sales Were slow. One day he went to town, had a four-page folder printed,. got a ,few envelopes and sent a foldee to everybody he knew that he thought 'would be inter- ested in worth-vrliile sheep or lambs. He did not try to see what big stories he could tell about his sheep when he got up the folder; he just told a plain, clear, - matter-of-fact story, describing each sheep in plain language, and giving his price for it. If he had had twice as many sheep he could have sold them all. Now he is doing the same thing when he has cows, pigs or poultry for sale. It works jest as well with one kind of stock as it does with another.

This plan wi I sell anything. Roznisede Merkets, Along a few of the main traveled highways .the roadside_ market is a new .development of the past two or three years. On a recent trip I saw f Some of- them were quite pretentious with a fine display ot fruit, vegetables and eggs, and an attendant in charge: Others consisted only of a few 'bas- kets of tomatoes or fruit with a "for sale" sign and the price tacked- to a post. The possibilities • in the roadside market are limited only by the lace - den of the farm, and the ability of the farmer to produce and display attrac- tively those good things of the farm that meet the requirement's of the city consumer. Every year., more town folks are getting the habit of running out into the country in their auto- mobiles and buying their vegetables, fruit, poultry and egg supplies direct from the farmer. It is a trade worth cultivating. A one -egg cake baked in a biscuit pan and out in squares, then served het with foamy sauce, is good des- sert. All refuse of crops ,that are through fruiting. should be burned as soon as dry enough. Cabbage stumps, cu- cumbers, melons, tomatoes and the like should not be left to decay. Making Every Apple Work to the Twenty-five per cent. of the apples grown in our orchards never reach our tables. In other words, an apple in four' is wasted. These waste apples can be used for apple syrup, apple butter, vinegar, etc; it is merely a matter of making every apple work. The better the grade of apples the better the product. Windfalls can he used. If 'partly decayed, cut out the decayed spots. Remove dirt by wash- ing. For cider, apple syrup or vine- gar, run thetfruit througlra cider -mill and extract the juice. Apple Syrup—To make one gallon of apple syrup, stir into seven gallons of apple eider five ounces of powdered calcium carbonate (carbonate of lime), which is a low-priced chemical, read- ily obtainable from a drug store. Heat ...the cider and allow it to boil for a few minutes. As the cider will foam slightly, it is necessary to use a ves- sel at least one-third larger than the volume of cider. After boning pour the eider into glass preserving jars and let the liquid settle until perfectly clear. This will take several hours, or overnight. When there is a dis- tinct sediment at the bottom, pour off the clear portion into a preserving kettle, being careful not to pour off any of the sediment. Fill the kettle only one-third full. Add to the cle,ar liquid a level teaspoonful of carbon- ate of lime end stir thoroughly. Boil the liquid rapidly. If you have a candy thermometer, let the liquid boil until it reaches 220 degrees F. If you have no such thermometer, boil the Liquid until only about one-seventh of the original volume is left, or until a small portion when cooled rapidly and poured from a spoon it about as thick as snaple syrup. When the syrup has reached this point, pour it off into the glass jars end let it cool very slowly. When the syrup has cooled to room temperature there will be a white sedIment. When the settling is coin - cider. Add enough water to the peel- ed end sliced apples to make a thin apple sauce, and let this cook very slowly, el. simmer, over a low fire for three or four hours. Brown sugar can be used, being added when the cooking is two-thirds done. The sugar which settles at the bottom of a barrel of molasses .is excellent for this purpose. A pound a gallon is usually sufficient, but this amountlis a matter of taste, as is also the amount of cinnamon, allspice and .cloves to be added when cooking is done. Apple Butter with Grape Juice—If a grape flavor is desired in apple 'but- ter, add to each gallon of peeled and sliced apples, cooked into sauce and strained, one pint of grape juice, one eupful of brown sugar, and one-fourth teaspoonful of salt. Cook slowly and stir often for two hours, or until of the desired thickness; then stir in one teaspoonful of cinnamon. Peck the hot butter into hot containers and sterilize. Apple Butter with Lemons—Slice four lemons, cover with water and let stand over night. Next morning put them into a preserving kettle with eight pounds of apples, pared, cored and sliced. Cook for one hour and add three pounds of sugar. Cook slow- ly and stir frequently for one and one- half hours longer, or until of proper thickness. Peck hot into sterilized containers and sterilize, or cover with paraffin. Cider Vinegar—Place the sweet cider as it comes from the press into barrels, which should sot be filldd more than three-fourths full. The bung of each barrel should be left out and a loose 'stopper of cotton -batting inserted into the hole. Place the bars- rels on their sidea to expose a large surface of the cider to the air. This is quite essential to rapid vinegar formetion. • Cider Apple 1.3utter—Peeled and yeast, stirred up in a little cooled, sliced apples may be cisoked In the boiled water, to eaoh five gallons of This will remove the scum and make boiled cider to make the butter it one. sweet cidete Keep the eider at a tem - the vessels clean, operation, or they may be made first! peeature of from 05 deg. to 80 deg.

The only sensible way to cure chronic gastritis is to go to a good family doctor, and have him examine the stomach contents—which are procured one hour after a test break- fast of weak tea . and a bit of dry toast. If he is not himself expert at this, have him refer you to a good stomach specialist. Only in that way can the doctor (and the patient) know. "where they are at"; only thus, in many cases, can the diagnosis of cancer or ulcer or other grave stom- ach ailment be counted out.
