And the day I've set aside for the beginning of this intensive effort is a day most fitting. It is the Fourth of July. Every member get a member. Get him early on the Fourth and have the rest of the holiday to yourself with a satisaed conscience to help you enjoy it or get him later if that's the only way. but get him. On my desk are reports of many memorable membership efforts pests increasing their membership five fold in a week; departments doubling up. But there is still room for every member to put in practice the Legion slogan for the Fourth 'Every member get a member.' Are you with me?"

quantity on the farm nnd corn was corn, regardless of its size, shape

or quality. In the olden days neighbors used to get together and help each other husk their corn. A barrel of cider was served with plenty of apples and pumpkin pie and a barn dance generally wound tip the festivities. In these days the itinerant tuskers lire queering the game by demanding eight, nine or ton cents a bushel for husking com, which really is only commensurate with wages for like work in town and factory. There are two good reasons for reviving the husking bee: First is

that the country should compete In festivities with anything the town can offer; and second, every community ought to unite on the vari

ety of corn TThlch Is best adapted to soil and climate and to breed It up to Its highest yield and quality. The easiest way to fix this type in the minds of all concerned, men, women and children, is to have the county agent or some good corn man exhibit a good ear of the selected type, explaining why the variety was selected; that it should be cylindrical in form, in regular rows, with covered tips and butts, and everything else pertaining to the selection of good seed corn, and then a small prize should be given to the man. woman or child who will find an car in the husked crn which will come nearest to the perfect type. Fortunately, when we breed for

quality we also get quantity. In
