He came to the tent door, Iio!oked out and ,kited, then 'he limped a few plaices' toward his sons avid •st'aod s'til'l. He was • (old, very old now, )hut he looked like a prinlce aimon.g men, keen, alerrt, erect -- a patriarch ;indeed.' After a m'amenit he 'asked siimspl'y, ":(That its the matter?" The men slurred quickly at the sound of his voice and some orae answered: "We are'absolutell'y beaten. Our food is • almost one and we cann!ot buy anything . anywhere." Then the old man inqu!izied with quiet dignity, "Did yon try to buy froln'P'haroah? There is plenty of corn in- Egypt," and add.- ed with authority, "Go and buy!" The tan men were startled. Th'e 'very mention, 'of Egypt sent shivers up every man's' spinet—for twenty years the word" 'Egypt' had been a nightmare. That was` where they had sent Joseph •and for twenty years they had 'liv'e'd s. tile, and kept their 'guilty secret from their father. • - Now, there was nothing else to • do. I To Egypt they must' go to buy corn I to• keep their families and their flacks allive. In their caravan there were many donkeys and camels, a few 'horsemen to act as scouts and enough s'erVants to look after the ani'm'als. But only ten of the sones of Jacob went along.

All they saw was an Egyptian 'offic'e, with Egyptian ;Clerks,and slaves, and 'iii the din of the stange ;languge they .saw an Egyptian 'statestm!an, clean, shaven, hair cropped short, Egyptian .clothes.

Corn'' Borer Warning Growers in counties under the Corn Bb,rer Act are urged to co-operate With the inspectors and not wait- to be forced to clean , up their fielfds. They should remember too that stand- ing corn or long stubble cannot be plowed under completely by any ,plow used nn the ordinary. farm. Hence the sltandlrg corn must first be 'gut low with a hoe or, moaner or' some other implement and than gathered and 'burned .before' plowing. Long stubble may be ,cut....with' a mower, pr be distad twice to- (break it up; or a leveller coarupesed ;of four, planks lap- ped one on the other and firmly nail- ed together may 'I be run both ways over it; or even a road -scraper may be used.. Then the plowing should be done very 'carefully and a skimmer or chain used to roll the refuse into the furrow. If proper care and thought are 'given to the Work very little hand-picking Will 'be necels'sary. Hun- dreds, or even thousands, of men treat ,their .stlibbl'e So well they nev- er have to' do a'ny•'hand-picking. Such m'en of course avow the use of tooth- ed implements after .plow'ing and use only di,s.es and disc drills. The corn borer is just as danger= out .an insect 'to -day as it was ` ten years ago and given a isier'ies bf yearrs• of weather favorable to iits increase nothing can hold it Pin check except a good clean-up -'of all corn stubble fields and the• gathering and burning or plowing under of Corn remnants wherever these may be. Such mea- sures are vastly cheaper than spray- ing or the use of •any kind of insect- irid:e could. ` osisilbly be .and are the most :Ibgie nd sensible methods of control. • MOULDY HAY DAN- • GEROUS TO' HORSES Reports .are being frequently re, calved telling of the sickness and loss of hlorses.
