Excerpt from Corn, Its Products, and UsesThe pop type of maize is characterized by its ability to pop when subjected to high temperatures. It occurs in two general styles of kernel, the one rice-shaped with a pointed end and the other flat with rounded end. Both are small and hard. The flint type is characterized by its hardness of kernel with a rounded top and a small area of soft endosperm.around the embryo completely surrounded by corneous endosperm. The dent type is char acterized by wedged-shaped kernels with an indented top and the soft endo sperm extending to the top with corneous material confined mainly to the sides of the kernel. In the flour or soft maize type the endosperm is entirely of a soft starchy character, In shape and outward appearance it is similar to flint corn but varies in size from not much larger than grains of pop maize to nearly an inch long.

When I ac cepted the position tendered me by the president of the United States, as commissioner, I determined to make a point on the great staple product of Nebraska, corn. The first banner I flung to the breeze in government building, had inscribed on its folds, Corn is King. To'go south and claim king for any other soil product than cotton, especially at the Cotton Centennial, was deemed an in tolerable bit of impudence, in nowise orthodox - a broad gauge departure. Cotton, sugar, and tobacco, all elevated their nasal protuberances, saying by actions, which are said to Speak louder than words, How dare you!

Excerpt from Singing Valleys: The Story of Corn At this season the country is lonelier than at any other time of the year. The towns feel this. They draw away from the farmlands and huddle about the white-spired churches.

Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.
