Mr. Miller and Virgil Weller have been shelling corn in this neighbor hood during the past week. Every fell our exchanges print nu merous recipes for the cure of corn stalk disease, but no one ever yet in our knowledge found them to be of any benefit. Here however, is a cure all for tlie disease: On some conven ient hill, if you are fortunate enough to have one. dig a cistern as wide and deep as you want to. Cement this in the same manner as thougii you wished it to hold water. Get a chop per such as is generally used for pre paring ensilage. When your corn is hard the husks beginning to turn a little brown but the sulks still green cut whole blamed coni field, chop it up and dump it into the cistern, spreading it around carefully so that St will pack down evenly. Put a floor over tiie liole and a roof over the w hole. When winter come draw this fodder out with a windlass or a horsa and feed it to the stock. Everything will eat it and prefer it to alfalfa of any other of the best feeds. And you wil' thrive and such a thing as corn sulk disease will be unknown: Fur thermore the cost of corn'husking will be saved and your corn field will feed out 4o per cent more than it does now. it will cost you some work in tlie early falf but you will liave a bank account jn a few years if you will follow this advice, where you have an overdraft now. If you can’t put your silo down then put it. up using some of tlie many weM-knywn makes.' But by all mean$ have one of some sorfc. If you ure going'to put it down in a hill.it wMl be a good winter job this winter.—Ord Quiz. A Parental Duty William Hawley Smith said in part of a lecture pertaining to schools os follows: "You will go out three times a day to see how the hogs are getting along but you will not go into the school from September to June to see how the children are getting along: and yet the children are ail that makes life worth living. There is no power that wields so great an influence on the minds of your children, as the public school, and what is done there you ought to know. Gentleman, I know vou are busy, but you should have a little time to loaf in the school room. Ladies, you are busy, but take your work and call on the schools; go and sit down with. the teachers and children. It wiu.do them good, and do you good. Don’t go to criti cise, or to annoy them, but go in a friendly way. It will be worth while.” How louse Red Cross Seals. With the sale of Bed Cross Seals In progress in almost.#very state and city of the United states, The Na tional Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis is issuing the following instructions to its fifty thousand paid and volunteer workers engaged in selling the seals, and to the millions who will buy these hol iday stickers for use on.their Christ mas mail. The Post Office Department has approved of the Bed Cross Seal design and they may, therefore, in accordance with order No. 5020 of the Post Office Department “be affixed to the reverse side of domestic mail matter.” Bed Cross Seals must be placed only on the back of letters and not on the address side of any packages that are going through the mail. They may be placed anywhere on matter going by express. As manv seals may be used on the back of a letter or pack age as may be desire. Everyone is urged to use them liberally, since every seal is a bullet in the fight against tuberculosis. Care should L<e excercised in sending merchandise through the mails not to place seals over the string with which the package is tied, since this seals the package against inspection and subject it to first-class postage rates. Red Cross Seals may be used also on the revese side of mail matter sent to Austria, Germany, Great Britain and most of the British Col onies except India and Australia. Guatemala, Uruguay and Portugal refuse to admit mail bearing non-pos tage stamps. '. - - Red Cross Seals may be used on the face of checks, .on bills, on legal' doc uments, andonany commercial paper. These Christmas seals are not good for postage. They will not carry any mail matter, but any kind of mail matter will carry them. The slogan of the campaign this year is “A mil lion for tuberculosis from Red Cross Seals.-’ Every letter or parcel sent out during the holiday season should bear one or more seals.

A man who enters into .the uncertainties of running for public office and cannot accept the result gracefully and philosophically should ' not become a candidate at the begin-, sing. The man who, after being de feated, continues annoying his friends 1 and the public in common with his I grouch, his fault-finding' his accusa- .1 tions and his sour grapes, disgusts - his friends and drie§ up their sympa thy and he then becomes a three-fold loser Everybody admires a cheerful loser—a man who is ready to accept the public's choice in a spirit of man liness anh broad-mindedness. He ' should remember that had the'people •wanted him in preference to his op ponent he would have been elected, but to not accept the result manfully only convinces those- who did vote for him that they made a mistake in doing so. A successfull candidate can also become just as bad as the defeated grouch by becoming egotis tically officious and assuming the re sponsibilities of Atlas, imagining that the universe is now resting heavily upon his sho.dders. Self-importance has rained the usefulness of more youngmen in official positions thun any other shortcoming. Sometimes they do not realize this fact, because of the convicton of their own great importance, until! they again appeal to the public for vindication. Vind ication come slowly to those whose actions are inspired by malice, hatred or revenge. The public takes un kindly to itand never encourage those who carry out the plans of t.hn^ protected by concealment. To be manly is to be fair, honest and honor able, extend the same official treat ment to all men and play no political tricks because the game is a long one and is never finished.
