These variety tests ware aadartakea

different localities ia the state. For
these experiments the state has been
divided into six sections, the bound
ary liaes of which correspond more or
lorn closely with those marking changes
is the natural vegeuwuiut as hovi uj
the botaaical survey. All tests in
one section include the same varieties.
Miaeteen varieties ia all were tested,
bat 'the maximam number in any one
section was twelve. Seed corn was
sent to each experimenter each year,
the supply always beiag obtained
from the same source. It was neces
sary to do this as the varieties were
grown side by side, which, although
it does not effect the yield of grata
from any variety, does render it valae
less for teed. 'Enough seed was sent
to plant at least a quarter of an acre
of each variety. Instructions were
given to plant nil varieties in the
same manner, and on the same day; to
prepare the laad in the same way. and
give the same cultivation. Each va
riety was to be picked separately and
aa accurate estimate of the yield of
corn on the cob determined, also the
proportion of com to cob oa tea rep

varieties tested were Boone County

from ieed raised ia Nebraska. There
was much variation indifferent locali
ties as to the variety giving the best
yields of grain. This was expected,
and was the reason for beginning the
experiment. There are great differen
ces in the fertility and working
qaalities of the coil in different parte
of the state, as well as differences in
rainfall and temperature. The condi
tions favorable for one variety may
not ba so favorable for another. Much
will depend also on the region in
which the variety has been raised. A
report of each test is given in the bul
letin. Corn brought from outside of
the state did not yield so well as corn
raised within the tate. A notable ex
ception to this is Beid's Yellow Dent.
Early maturing varieties did not yield
so well as later maturing ones. Yellow
verities gave, on the whole, better
yields than white varieties. The pro
portion of corn to cob did not bear
any relation to the yield of corn per
acre, neither did the size of the ear.
Some of the varieties of corn brought
from other states, although not
yielding remarkably well in thete
trials, givo evidence of becoming very
valuable varieties after they have
been raised in this region for a suffi
cient number of years to become well
adapted to the climate. Of these,
Beid's Yellow Dent, Boone County
White, Learning, and Silver Mine are
particularly promising. T. L.

" The most satisfactory way that I
have found to kill gophers", says a
correspondent to the State Journal,
"is by use of strychnme. Buy two
bottles of crystalized strychBine: It
costs 25 cents per bottle. Have your
druggist pulverize it. Take a quart
of large corn kernels and pat it to
soak for thirty-six hours until slightly
soft. Drain water off the corn. Sit
down to the table with a small dish and
with the point of a small knife blade
split the end of the kernel ot corn,
pry it apart a little, take a very small
amount of strychnine on the point of
the blade und insert it in the opening.
Have a small tin box with cover and
drop the kernels into it until full ;
put the box in your pocket. When
ever van see a gopher run him into his
hole and put ' one or two kernels of
the pnisnoed corn in the hole. That
will fix him sure. "I make a busi
ness of going over my place once
or twice in the spring and place in all
holes I find. Don't leave it on top of
the ground as bird's and chickens will
get it and it is sure death., By so
doing very little damage is done. Two
bottles of strychnine will rid your
farm of gophers. Aftr a little ex
perience anyone can prepare the corn
very fast."

described the animal. Mr. Bitter was
in town and said that he had spent a

given it up at last and perhaps if it
had not been for the notice iu this

DOMESTIC NEGLECT.
The Traaety- ef Little Thlaas That
Are Left Uae.
The judge and spectators in a Kan
sas City courtroom laughed when a
husband testified that his wife gave
him only "mechanical kisses."
Then the lawyers devoted many min
utes to the question "What is a me
chanical kiss?" They decided that It
was a salutation given only through a
sense of duty, and then they laughed
some more.
They didn't go far enough. They
might have- called it a tragedy.
With most women affection lasts. It
burns as strongly in old age as in "gold
en youth. A caress means a world of
joy to them.
Borne men forget. They grow care
less. Carelessness is often a species of
selfishness. Once it was a privilege to
press a lover's kiss on the lips of a
wife at the dour when leaving iu the
morning, again as a warm greeting
that always marked the homecoming
at night.
And one morning the man forgot the
caress and lost himself In business.
And a shadow fell ou a romance, and
the woman wept. She tried to be brave
and sensible. She tried to laugh at the
silly fear that he didn't care for her.
She assured herself a hundred times
that it was such a little thing and that
It was natural for him to forget and
that it was unreasonable for her to ex
pect the joy of the honeymoon through
life. She wiped away her tears and re
solved to hide her grief and be kind,
loving, patient.
And the man never knew. Perhaps
some day he went into court and com
plained that he bad been the recipient
of "mechanical kisses." Domestic neg
lect isn't always confined to lack of
food and clothing. Cruelty doesn't al
ways take the form of physical abuse.
When men learn to think, when they
remember that tb'e little attentions of
ten mark the difference between joy
and sorrow In a woman's life, there
will be more real happiness In the
world. Milwaukee JournaL
STAGE LIGHTS.
Thi'lr Varies Vea Mi the Hi
hr Which They Are Kum.
Lights play au important part on
the stage of the modern theater, and
they have many uses. The spot light,
for Instance, Is employed to cast a cir
cle of light upon the stage where a sin
gle person is to be brought into espe
cial prominence. It consists of an arc
electric light Inclosed in a cylindrical
hood about the diameter of a stove
pipe and provided at the open end
with a condenser lens for the jinrpose
of concentrating the rays uponVsmaU'
area.
A flood light is an arc in a rectangu
lar box painted white upon the inside
to serve as a reflector. It is supposed
to flood the stage with light; hence Its
name.
Bunch lights are clusters of gas or
Incandescent lights either arranged
within a. reflector or exposed naked.
They are used back of a scene behind
doorways, where light is needed off
the stage to represent the illumina
tion of that part of a dwelling not
shown. For the same purpose "strip"
lights are used rows of incandescent
lights fastened to a strip of wood pro
vided with a hook, by which It may
be hung to the back of a scene when
required.
"Side" lights are Incandescent lights
Larranged on either side of the prosce
nium arch. Sometimes they are built
within the arch or they are arranged
to be swung outward when the cur
tain Is raised.
The footlights are familiar to all,
and the "border" lights are those hung
over the stage directly above the scen
ery, shutting" off the top of the stage.
These are arranged In a trough like an
Inverted "U" to cast their light down
upon the stage. These are practically
all of the lights used upon the stage of
a bouse, though magic lanterns are
employed at times for the simulation
of water effects, moonlight ripples and
lightning. The old fashioned calcium,
aafag the oxyhydrogen gas, is so sel
dom employed In the modern theater

EaalUh Axes at Haatlaar.
At the battle of Hastings the corps
d'elite of the English urmy were ne
coutered with sword and shield, and
iu addition to this they bad hung
"great hatchets ou their necks, with
which they could strike doughty
blows." Whenever a special deed ot
valor is credited to an Englishman lu
that battle, with one exception, it is
due to the ax be bears. And now
what were these axes that dealt such
deadly destruction on the Norman
knight? As to this we are left In no
doubt. Time after time does Wace
call them "great axes." The bead
alone in one instance was a foot in
length. And the Bayeux tapestry out
of about twenty axes represents all
except some three as having long han
dles. Hardly ever do we find iu the
tapestry the short ax for one hand.

Adarialsteriaa- Ether.
The most common mistake made by
beginners In the administration of
ether is that of forgetting to lessen the
proportion of the substauce when full
anwthesia is established that is, con
tinning to make their patients respire
an atmosphere as highly charged with
its vapors as when getting them under
its influence. It is a matter of sur
prise to physicians how very little
ether will often suffice to keep a pa
tient well under its Influence toward
the close of an operation, and this
small quantity will always postpone
vomiting until the operation is com
pleted. Medical Review.
