And in heaven with joy to greet you
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Written by her sister.

SEED SELECTION.
E ; There is no time better suited to se
ll
; lecting seed for planting than when
, ; the crop first matures. This is true
i of all crops but -more especially for
. i corn. Every farmer in our county
should begin at once to select and
J save seed for planting next year’s
: corn crop. It isn’t good practice to
i; select seed from the bin where the
11 harvest of all kinds of plants are
• j mixed. The best crop cannot be
'lmade with seed selected in this man
[:
: ner. The best way to select seed corn
iis while the stalks are standing and
i all the surrounding stalks and condi
tions may be considered. Often the
• largest ear of corn is grown on a stalk
that has a great deal of distance and
!
( isn’t the best ear for seed. Seed for
; planting should not bt aeken from a
■ stalk unless it is grown under normal
conditions and no barren sialks near
1 by.
After the corn is gathered and put
in the crib the conditions under which
• it grew cannot be considered.
It is a weU known fact that a stalk
■ that produces two ears is -nt ore suita
ble for seed than the single eared
stalk. Since all selections should bo
[ with the idea of increasing the yield,
■ and since the highest yielding stalks
those which produce more than one
urch each, only ears from these pro
luctice stalks should be selected.
Probably two ears per is the best
standard to establish.
The tallest rankest growing stalks
should be rejected. No plant should
be considered however that, has not
made vigorous and stock growih and
s not at least of medium height,
likewise, no selections should be
.ade from the plant that produces
ess than two ears, which should be
ibout the middle or slightly below the
middle of the stalk. All stalks that
trow rank perhaps as a result of in
creased food or moisture or skips or
a poor stand of surrounding plants
should be rejected, regardless of the
jxcellent qualities they may appear
to have.
Experience teaches that these char
acters are the result of environment
and are not likely to reproduce thm
selves.
I
The most desirable plants should 1
be marked by tying strips of cloth 1
about them while they are growing as,
:hey can be better judged at this time.
The seed ears may or may not be
harvested with the main crop.
If both are harvested together it;
will be necessary to keep a basket or I
box inside of the wagon in which the;
seed ears may be put as soon as
pulled.
Farmers should save seed for plant
ing all crops as much as possible.
This has always been true but should i
be emphasized for the coming sea
sons, A great many farmers will not 1
be able to buy planting seed another !
I
year. Save plenty of seed of every
crop you grow on your farm and if ;
you have any to spare next spring you;
can sell them to advantage.
It isn’t a difficult matwter to save a
few seed of every crop grown and the
i
eed grown under our present condi-,
ions are much better for planting an
>tbc-r crop than any seed may i n
ert. But if we do not save seed this
ear very likely we will fail in gel
ing plenty to plant.
Save garden seed, cane seed, beans,
eanuts, peas, corn and cotton seed
r all crops that you want to grow
:ext year.

■ Severe Coughing, All Go
When Foley’s Honey
and Tar Is Used.
i Bronchitis too often leaves a severe
racking cough that weakens the system
end paves the way for such grave dis- j
eases as pleurisy and pneumonia. Some- j
times there is a nervous hacking, worse :
on arising and at nightfall, that is espe
cially wearing and should by all means
bo stopped promptly. Foley’s Honey
and Tar is exactly suited to these condi- |
. tions. It directly affects the mucous
lining of the throat, clearing it at once of
hoarseness, removing theticklingphlegm
■ .and stopping the severe racking cough,
j Coughs usually grow worse at night
fall and prevent the quiet rest so neces
sary to one weakened by a cold.
