I've told you several times it’s no use to try those bandages, salves, tapes, plasters, and ([ *You Wouldn’t Lose Your Temper, -10I1|l' It You Used ‘Gets-It” for Those Corns}" contraptions for corns, ons 1 Here's some ‘Gets-It", it's just wonderful how easy, ‘clear and clean’ it makes any corn come right off. Takes but a few sec- onds to apply. It dries at once. Put your sock on right over it,—there's nothing to stick or roll up, form a bundle of your toe, or press on the corn. It’s painless, simple as rolling off a log. Now put away those knives, razors and scissors, use ‘Gets-It' and you'll have a sweeter disposition and no more corns and calluses.” “‘Gets-It” is sold by druggists every- where, 25¢, a bottle, or sent direct by 2.

Crop Depends Upon Soundness and Quality of the Seed. March is a good month in which to make the germination test for seed corn, says a contributor to the Farm Progress. A vitality or germination test should always be made, no matter how good the seed corn looks or where 1t has been stored. . Even though you picked it very care- ideal conditions, it is not safe to put it into the ground without having given it the regular test. No matter how it was picked or where it was stored, you cannot be sure. Water, weather, tem- erature and other factors you may ave overlooked or been unable to con- trol may have made your picked seed corn just about worthless for planting purposes. There is just one way to make sure of what you are doing, and that is to put it through the most rigid tests that SEED CORN. can be given under the vitality or germination method. You want to re- member that on the soundness and the quality of this corn you are gambling the sum total of your summer’s sweat in that cornfleld. If it is not what it should be you are wasting a large per- centage of every day’s work from the time you stick the plowshare in the ground till the day the yleld is cribbed. If the seed has been carefully select- ed, stored in a dry and well ventilated room out of the way of rats and mice; if it has been thoroughly dried and has stood low temperatures without injury it 1s likely that the germinating power is what it should be, but the only sure way to tell before planting it is to test it out. Tests should be made several weeks before the corn is to be put in the soil; otherwise there will be little time to secure and test new seed. In all cases every ear should be en- tered for the test. A very good way is to use a box about eighteen inches square and about three inches deep. Fill this just about two-thirds full of clean sand or sawdust. I like sawdust much better, as I have had much bet- ter results with it. Level the sand or the sawdust down smoothly and mois- ten it. Don’t get it sopping wet, but have it damp enough to give the water a chance to soften the covering on the grains. Take the ears of corn to be tested, lay them on a floor or table in double rows, placing the ears tip to tip. Num- ber every tenth ear by a slip of paper or g tag stuck between the ears. Then cover the sand or the sawdust with a plece of white cloth marked off into inch and a half squares. Use an indel- ible pencil for the markings and num- ber the squares consecutively. Take from each ear at various places between the tip and the butt five grains. In the squares place five grains from each ear, seeing that the grains from an ear having a certain number are placed in the square having that number. Cover the grains over with anothe strip of close woven cloth. The clotl should be just tightly woven enough tc keep the sprouts from coming through, and over this spread a plece of burlap paper for this purpose. Put the testing box in ‘the living room or somewhere else where the tem- perature is always about the same. Tt should not be colder than 55 degrees at night, and in anywhere from four to six days the grains will begin to sprout. Any ear that fails to have five kernels that will germinate should be thrown out of the seed corn pile.
