Element of Pure Value Doubtless there is In every art an element of mere knowledge . . . and that element Is progressive. But there is another element, too, which does not depend on knowledge, and which does not progress, but has a kind of stationary and eternal value, like the beauty of the dawn, or the love of a mother for a child, or the joy of a young animal In being alive, or the courage of a marty^ facing torment.

Suitable Way to Cure Seed Corn

Moisture Must Be Removed From Ears Quickly to Prevent Spoiling. Ears of corn that are picked for seed usually have more moisture In them than is suspected. Thirty per cent or even more of the weight of an ear is water. In air-dried ears the moisture content will range from । about 15 per cent and under. The surplus is removed through curing and the sooner It is removed from the ears the less will be the danger of the seed spoiling. Moist corn will mold very easily and then the vitality of the kernels will be very much reduced. Furthermore. there Is the danger of freezing weather which entirely destroys the seed if it is frozen. When seed ears are once cured no amount of freezing can Injure them. Reduce Moisture Content. The chief problem then connected with caring for the seed Is to reduce the moisture content as soon as possible. Proper ventilation and the application of heat will do this. In many years suitable ventilation is all that Is required, especially when corn has matured early and the fall weather is warm und dry. But we cannot always take for granted that this is the case. If we could, ears selected from the crib would be satisfactory to use. To avoid all danger seed coni should be cured in a place where there is tin opportunity to provide some heat In case It is needed. Since ventilation, to carry off the moisture. Is so necessary, the ears ought to be stored In such n way that no two ears touch. This will provide a free circulation of air about each ear and it will thus cure In the shortest time possible and at the same time all kernels will dry out equally. This will make seed that will have the most uniform germination. This may be termed the Individual-ear method of storing and Is always the safest to use. Seed ears should never be stored In sacks or In piles. It is even dangerous to pile one row on top of another, st least until the moisture content has been considerably reduced. Useful Stringers. There are numerous devices that one might think of that will accomplish this purpose. Corn stringers answer the best, ami any boy can make them. Finishing nails driven into a piece of board will do very well. The ears may then be driven Into place by shoving the nails into the pith of the cobs at the butts. Care should be taken to drive the nails far enough apart so that when ears are arranged no two touch, as already explained. One may drive enough nails Into a post that lias been fastened to a base so that It will stand upright to accommodate a large number of ears. Racks made out of lath will also do very well. In fact, any scheme may be used which does not permit the ears to touch each other. If the space occupied by the ears during the curing process is not needed for anything else and if the corn Is protected from mice and rats. It may be left where it is until testing and planting time conies. If It must be removed then it should be packed away in containers that are mouse and rat proof and stored away in a dry place. Air-dried corn will keep If stored In a dry place, no matter how cold it is. Any amount of freezing will not injure seed ears when they are once cured out. Sunshine Best Agent for Sterilizing Utensils Tn order to keep dairy utensils in a thoroughly sweet-smelling condition they should be kept out of doors where they have a chance to air out and become dry. Sunshine is one of the best agents for sterilizing utensils. A convenient and practical way to do this Is to use a rack with wooden pegs over which the utensils can be hung. This exposes them to the sun and air, both of which help to keep them in a sweet, sterile condition. Do not try to wipe the utensils dry, but simply scald them after they have been thoroughly washed, and then hang them over the pegs so that they

SOD GROUND IS BEST PLACE TO APPLY BARNYARD MANURE

Top Dressing Increases Hay Yield From Meadow. i Where is the best place to apply < manure, depends largely on the con- । ditlon of the fields and the manure. In my experience the best place for । well-rotted barnyard manure has usually been on sod ground Intended to be turned under for corn. Sod ground is usually deficient in those elements found in good manure. Manure from the horse stable, where < plenty of bedding is used, Is generally < too dry and heating and not rotted sufficiently to be applied to sod ground Just previous to planting time, writes J. A. Raiser of Ohio in the Indiana Farmers’ Guide. However, I have found it practical and not injurious at all, but rather beneficial, to apply such manure to sod ground up to within a month of planting time. The spring rains and weather conditions In general fit the manure to be turned under with beneficial rather than Injurious effect by that time. I have also applied both barnyard and stable manures as a top-dressing for meadows with very pleasing results. It greatly increased the yield of hay from the meadow. I have never found that any appreciable amount of the unrotted litter in the manure gets Into the hay by being raked up and brought up onto the wagon with the hay through the loader. Usually the 1 manure is hauled out and applied to

may drain and dry. A dishcloth is often a source of contamination and does more harm than good In washing the strainer cloth It Is advisable to first rinse it out in cold water. Then soak it in a hot solution of washing powder and then rinse out In clean, hot water. When clean it should be hung out in the sun to thoroughly dry. To Secure Best Results Spread Manure Evenly Manure should be evenly spread for best results. This is difficult to do without a manure spreader. In some places It is the practice to haul to the Held, put Into small piles, and then spread from these piles by hand. There is no advantage to this, but it does increase the labor cost. The value of manure can be greatly Increased by the addition of some reinforcing material. Gypsum or land plaster, rock sulphate and acid phosphate are commonly used. Acid phosphate Is tiie best to use. Besides taking up much of the ammonia, which would be lost through fermentation and leaching, ft adds an available form of phosphoric acid to the manure. This Is Important, for manure is low in phosphoric acid. When acid phosphate is used at the rate of 40 to 50 pounds per ton of manure it supplies plenty of available phosphoric acid for the average crops. Limestone may be used with manure but It will not have the same effect on the ammonia that acid phosphate does. Trench Silo Bulletin Is Ready for Circulation That it lias been amply demonstrated that corn, sunflowers, and some legume crops can be preserved as successfully In trench silos ns In pit or upright silos Is a finding of the authors of S|>eclal Bulletin No. 100. “Trench Silos in Minnesota." Just Issued by the agricultural extension service of the Minnesota university. Farmers who have used such silos to meet emergencies are said to be well please<l with results. The trench allo la Inexpensive, easy to fill, frost, fire, and wind proof, can be packed by horse power, needs no rnof and no elevating of cut silage. These are advantages. Os course there are disadvantages such as unsightliness. short life, danger from poor drainage, and extra exj>ense In feeding If the alio la some distance from barns or live stock.

Poor Month for Cattle More cattle reach the market during the month of October than any other month of the year. This being true. October Is usually a poor month In which to sell, but a good month to buy. This applies particularly to Stocker and feeder cattle. With this class of cattle to sell, it will generally pay to feed them liberally on good roughage and a small amount of cuke and market early in the spring. On the other hand, the person who expects to feed during the winter can usually buy most advantageously in October. Value of Cowpea Hay A ton of cowpea hay contains as much food value as does a ton of wheat bran. Still, the bran finds a ready market among farmers at from S3O to S4O per ton. Soy beans are very rich in nitrogen and consequently in protein since all protein must contain 16 per cent of nitrogen. Cowpeas and soy beans do not leave so much nitrogen in the soil as clover, but a considerable part of the nitrogen Is left In the soli in the roots. Time to Cut Alfalfa A good time to cut the alfalfa la in late afternoon because the sun will not wilt the leaves too quickly and cause them to shatter. Hay cut in the morning will not cure right because the leaves will be quickly wilted by the hot sun; the stems will also be full of juice; and the leaves will be dry and may blow away before the stems are ready to stack.

the meadow right after the summer’s crop has been removed, which gives It practically a whole year in which to decompose and incorporate with the ■oil. I find that this practice will not only benefit the hay crop but also to a large extent the following corn crop.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL Sunday School ’ Lesson ’ (By REV. P B FITZWATER. D.D.. Dean of the Evening School. Moody Bible La•titute of Chicago.) (©. 1825. Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for October 25 PAUL IN EPHESUS LESSON TEXT-Acts 19:1-41. GOLDEN TEXT—"For the love of money Is the root of all evil."—l Tim. • :10. PRIMARY TOPIC —Paul Tells IdolMakers About Jesus. JUNIOR TOPlC—Paul's Preaching Stirs Up a Riot. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPlC—Diana or Christ. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Money or Christ. Apollos, an Alexandrian Jew, an eloquent man and mighty in the Scriptures, had preceded Paul at Ephesus. He had diligently taught the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. When Aquila and Priscilla heard him they per- | reived his lack of instruction In Christian truth. Therefore, they took him and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly. Having thus come Imo fuller light, tn? brethren gave him a letter of endorsement as he passed to other fields. I. John’s Disciples Become Christians (vv. 1-7). These 12 disciples had been taught 1 only the baptism of repentence as a preparation f<>r the kingdom of God. Paul taught them to believe on Christ I. e.. to receive Him ns the One on th«> emss who had provide'* redemption for them. When they received Christ, Paul laid bands upon them ur.d they received the Holy Spirit. 11. Paul Preaching in Ephesus (vv. 8-10). 1. In the Jewish Synagogue (v. 8). Thourh the Jews were Paul’s invet- j erate enemies, his rule was to go to j them first with the gospel. His preaching was characterized: (1) By boldness. He realized that God sent him. and ttiat His authority whs beck of him. (2) By reason. God’s message la tn accord with the highest reason. (3) By persuasion. It is not enough to come boldly with a reasonable message. it must be accompanied by persuasion. (4) By speaking, “concerning the kingdom of God.” He did not dis course on current events, literature or philosophy, but upon the message of salvation through Christ. 2. In the Schoolhouse of Tyrannus (vv. $-10). TLe Jews, being enemies of the ■ gospel of the grace of God. were only hardened by Paul’s earnest preaching. Paul separated the disciples from them and resorted to the schoolhouse us Tyrannus. This was followed with glorious results. 111. God Working Miracles by Paul (vv. 11 16). Ephesus was noted for Its wonder i workers. If Paul’s ministry was to ■ be successful here. God must in an extraordinary way put His seal upon | His work So wonderfully did He I manifest His power that handkerchiefs ami aprons brought from Paul’s i body healed the sick und cast out evil ! spirits, i IV. A Glorious Awakening (w. 1741). 1. Fear Falls Upon All (v. 17)). News of the casting out of these evil spirits created impressions favorable to Christianity. 2. It Brought to the Front Those Who Professed Faith in Christ. While Not Living Right Lives (v. 18). They believed but had not broken from sin. 3. Gave Up the Practice of Black Arts (v. 19). This means forms of Jugglery by use of charms and magical words. They proved the genuineness of their actions by publicly burning their j books. 4. Uproar of the Silversmith at j Ephesus (vv. 23-41). (1.) The Occasion (vv. 23-24). This was the power of the gospel in destroying the infamous business of Demetrius and his followers. It was clear to them that idolatry was tottering before the power of the gospel. They were not Interested particularly m the matter from a religious standpoint, but because it was undermining the principal business of the city. (2) The Method (vv. 25-29). Demetrius, a leading business man, whose business was the stay of others of a similar nature, called a meeting and stated that much people had been turned from idolatry, and that the market for their wares was materially weakened. He appealed to his followers: a. On the ground of business, saying: “This, our craft, is in danger of being set at naught,” v. 27. b. On the ground of religious prejudice. He said: “The temple of tiie great goddess Diana shall be despised” (v. 27). HU speech gained his end. The whole crowd was enraged and yelled in unison. “Great is Diana of the Ephesians.” This method of proving a point seems quite modern. The mob was quieted by the tact and good judgment of the town clerk. First, he rebuked them for yelling for two hours to prove a point which everybody admitted (vv. 35-36) ; second, he showed that Paul and his companions were not guilty of any criminal act (vv. 37-39) ; third, the people were in danger of being called to account for this riot, should It come to the ears of Caesar (vv. 40-41). All May Be Useful There is no condition of the world so mean and despicable but yields us opportunities for doing good. There is neither old nor young, man nor woman, rich nor poor, high or low. learned nor unlearned, but in their sphere, by a good husbandry of those talents God has entrusted to their care, may be useful to others, and prove Instruments of much good in their generation. —Archbishop Sharpe
