SEED CORN FOR. PLANTING.
Department of Agriculture Tells How
to Prepare the Corn.
Itequests are now reaching the de-
partment of agriculture for informa-
tion in regard to preparing seed corn
for planti ug. The must vital part of
seed torn selection work ens be per-
formed only at corn ripening time i.:
the fall.
Every corn grower should now spend
a day or more getting his seed turn
entirely ready for planting. The pres-
ent work consI is of discarding unde-
sirable ears. germination testing. nob-
bing, classifying the ears, shelliug and
testing the accuracy of drop of the
corn planter.
The quality and productiveness of
the seed stipply'cun now be improved
by dis(•arding the poorer ears and the
poorer kernels.
The seed corn should now be "as dry
as a bone," aud among the ears that
appeared desirable last fall some un-
desirable ones will now be found.
Discard any that have discolored ker-
nels, small size, very stamp beaks,
germs of poor development and appear-
ance, etc.
' All the ears retained should show
good development unci maturity. be
heavy for their size and eontnin solid,
vigorous looking kernels of fairly uni-
form size and shape. These desira-
ble ears should now be tested to de-
termine whether all the kernels will
grow.
Germination Testing.
Although good seed selection and
preservation usually woke a Separate
testing of the germination of each ear
unnecessary, it is advisable to exercise
precaution by demonstrating that the
ears will germinate well. Ten kernels
from each of fifty ears can be tested

have been so well described in litera-
ture This demonstration tont fifty

Kernels that have been injured by

undesirable should also be discarded
before the ears are shelled.
Classifying the Ears.
As it is highly advisable that the
corn planter should drop an equal aiim-
ber 00 kernels in each hill, which it
cannot do unless the kernels are of uni-
form size and shape, it advisable to
classify the ears before shelling them.
Those having, large kernels should be
included in one class and those having
medium size kernels in another class.
Each class should be shelled 'and bag-
ged separately. To these bags the
planter plates that testing has shown
will drop regularly the proper number
of kernels ' should be tied for conven-
ience at planting time.

They Did Me More Good Than All

PA1,r1SRSTox, ONT., June 20th. 1913
"I really believe that I owe my life
to "Fruit-a-tives". Ever since child-
hood, I have been under the care of
physicians and have been paying doctors'
bills. I was so sick and worn out that
people on the street often asked me if I
thought I could get along without help.
The sante old stomach - trouble and
distressing headaches nearly drove me
wild. Some time ago I got a box of
"Fruit-a-tives" and the first box did
Inc good, My husband was delighted
and advised a continuation of their use.
"Fruit-a-tives" completely cured me.
Today, I am feeling fine, and a phy-
sician meeting me on the street, noticed
my improved appearance and asked me
the reason. I replied, "I am taking
Fruit-a-tives''. He said, "Well, if
"Fruit-a-tives" are making you look so
well. go ahead and take them. They
are doing more for yon than I can".
Mrs. H. S. WILLIAMS.
