Salt May Save
the Soft Corn
How Animals Figure
In Christmas Customs

From now until Dec. 25th
we will pay:
Salt will Bavo the soft corn accord
ing to the Investigation and tostlmony
of tho James E. Dennett Co., commis
sion merchants of Chicago, which has
been published In some of tho country
newspapers In Stark county, Illinois.
A copy of tho Stark County News con-
tahilii
ilng the following article, which
feio helpful to the farmers came In
to our hands last week.
"Wo always knew that salt contains
presorntive qualities but we did not'
know before that It was a preservative
of soft corn, wo learn that Bovorni
are using It to gopd effect and our
readers will no doubt read with Inter
est the Investigation of tho Janies E.
Bonnott Co., In their own words as
follows:
"Having learned that salt was being
used to preserve soft corn In Whlte
sldo county, Illinois, wo Instructed
our traveling man to Investigate. Ho
reports as follows:
"AconVpanled by nn exporlen 0
grain dealer I Investigated thoroly tho
uso of salt for preservation of soft
corn in tho vicinity of Prophetstown,
Whiteside county, Illinois. Wo found
numerous places where corn was be
ing salted or had been salted. Wo
interviewed many experienced farmers
on the subject -and acquired tho fol
lowing Interesting information. T. J.
Marshall, a largo successful farmer,
residing about ono and a half miles
south of Prophetstown, gives us tho
following data: In 1881, tho year hi
which so many farmers experimented
with largo yellow seed corn from Kan
sas, It was found that this corn did not
mature. Mr. Marshall informs us that
whilo cribbing corn UiaUyear, an eld
erly Gorman, John Llphart, advised
him to salt his soft corn Llphart
' tated that this method of preservation
lnd been adopted in Germany and
Sweden, the climate not bMns adapted
to maturing corn. Marshall adopted
the Gorman's suggestion, operating
under his direction to use from 2 to
2 barrels of salt for each 1,000
bushels of corn, that Is equivalent to
about' 10 quarts of salt to each ordin
ary wagon load of ear corn, salt being
sprinkled over the corn as It was being
placed in the crib. Mr. Marshall states
the experiment was a pronounced suc
cess. Corn which he cribbed early
without salt that year was lost. The
crib that was salted came out as dry
as a bone, Just as bright as It Went In
and absolutely free from mold and rot
though light in weight due to the
moisture drawn from the corn by tho
action of the salt. Tho 'process was
used from timo to time but was again
extensively used with tlie soft corn
crop two years ago, 1915. Mr. Mar
shall induced his neighbors to salt
their soft corn and Informs us tho re
sult was highly satisfactory, resulting
in many converts. This year those
same farmers and many recruits to
the method aro applying the salt
Practically tho entire stock of the
common barrel salt In this vicinity
was exhausted. E. J. Mathis, of the
Mathls Bros. Co , grain dealers at Pro
phetstown and other points, said his
firm had sold several carloads of salt
for this corn crop. Local farmers
seem to have accepted tho salting pro
cess and ndopted it Into their regular
method of farming, claiming It has
been thoroughly tested on previous
occasions and found effective and
highly satisfactory. In addition to In
tervlewing farmers who wore using
tho method wo wore particularly Inter
ested in our visit with AJbort Besslre,
a big farmer. He showed us one crib
of 1000 bushels of new corn which had
been treated with salt. Mr. Besslre
removed ono of tho crib Blats nnd we
took out sufficient corn to 'penetrato
nn arm's length. Wo found the corn
very cool, in fact, cooler than the out
side temperature, perfectly sweet, but
of course wet. This corn had been In
tho crib sovoral days. It is further
stated that corn cribbed with salt
passes thru tho winter In its soft or
green state drying only with tho com
ing of spring wind and rising tempera
lure, n is cinunou mat Bort corn
absolutely does not heat. Wo have
looked into tho matter carefully and
are convinced tho process has suffic
ient merit to Justify a thoro investiga
tion, not only by tho Individual but by
tho Agricultural Department. It is
stated that tho corn comoB out In the
spring practically free from any taste
of snlt.

THE Christmas customs In Norway
nml Swdcn nro tho most Inter
estlnu of nnv countrv. It Is timo
of great rejoicing. ' To show that there!
are friendly feelings between every
ono In tho household tho shoes nro,
placed In n row In the hall when retir
ing on Christmas ove, and, like tho
German custom, candles nrc loft burn-!
Ing in tho vlllago windows nil night
to light the way for "Krlstlne," who,
brings the gifts. The Christmas treo!
is largely decorated with candles nnd
pretty cakes arranged In bright colored!
baskets, all usually home made.
Tho richer households send good
things to the poor, and everywhere
among both rich nnd poor are the nnl
mnls and birds remembered, says Our
Dumb Animals. The boys and girls
save up their pennies during tho year,
for this purpose. Sheaves of gruln,
are fastened to tho window ledges In,
town, nnd In the country the sheaves,
nre fustencd to long poles nnd renewed
every day for a week, nnd many nrq
the birds that spy this feast. On tho
'barn lloors of tho peasants bowls of;
iiot porridge nro set for poor "llobln
' iPodfellow" to comfort him becausq
lit has no "soul." The cows nnd thq
horses share In the general happlnes
by having a double share of food given,
them.
It is a big skip from tho northlnnt
to tno soutmanu or tropical countries
where Christmas is celebrated wlthou
the evergreen treo to decorate nn
hang gifts on. In Brazil tho holldn;
may be spent outdoors In tho sunn;
flower scented nir. ;
They have quaint superstitions ln
these summer lands relative to Yule4,
tide. On the coffeo plantations tho old,
folk shy that on Christmas night tho
animals have the gift of speech nnd
that if only a child has sufficient cour-j
age to go out alone after dark it s
hear on the stroke of 12 the cock,
crow In a loud, clear voice from his,
highest perch:
"Cluisto nasceu" Christ is born.
The bull in n deep, sonorous bass,
inquires from n distant field, "Onde'
where?
Tho sheep then answer In chorus,
"Em Belera do Juda" In Bethlehem,
of Judea.
In turn nil the domestic nnlmnls glvq
to the world the glad tidings of thq
Nativity. Many n child wishes it hnd,
the courage nccessury to enable hlin
to spend midnight outdoors and henJ,
this wonderful conversation of thq
brute creation.
Christmas Pie Has
Long Family History
HAPPY tho Christmas reveler whq
has a digestion to tackle thq
Christmas pie. The modern fndi
dlst In diet Is trying to rule out thq
plum pudding and the mince from the
Christmas feast.

First It wns old Santa under a ban
a dreary world It would be without
Santa Claus now it Is the toothsome
Christmas pie bulging with raisins,
Ilnky of crust nnd redolent of burning
brandy.
Truly the modern progressive whq
lives by rule is akin to the old Puritan
to whom the Christmas pie was an
nbomlnatlon savoring of heresy. In
deed the Itoundhond hud more excuse
for his abstinence ; It was a test of or
ithodoxy. He felt his morals would bo
injured by eating n pie whoso savory
contents were typical of offerings of;
the Magi and whose form was often,
that of a munger.
The Christmas nlis Is of ancient and
'honorable lineage, and Its nnine of;
"mince pie" came centuries later, be
lng given in derision by tho Puritans,
Are we such weaklings that wliat our
ancestors have thrived on for centu
ries will slay us in one eating? Surely
the stomach specialist, that product
of modernity, must have slipped up.
Our grandparents did not ent one
measly little slice of tho Christmas pie
in fear and trembling. Boldly they
swallowed huge hunks, not on Christy
mas day only, but during tho entlrq
senson of Chrlstmns, unto Twelfth
Night. Wns it not writ, "As many dlf
ferent houses ns thou shnlt eat mlncq
plo during Chrlstmnstlde so many hapi
py months shalt thou have during thq
year?"
And they began the mixing of tha
Chrlstmns plo early and with grea
ceremony. It was a gnla occasion
when the plum pudding was to bq
stirred and each, member of the housei
hold down to tho infant in arms must
havo n turn at the spoon. PhlUideN
