Some months since we called the attention Of
our western tnends To the fact, that n large por.
ton Of the corn coming forward from that section
was damaged, for want of care in preparing it for
market. As the season is approaching when a
new crop is to be housed we again refer to the
subject in the hope of an improvement, in the
coming year. Western mixed corn has been sell.
ing here for the last few days Mt 5s a 60 for
heated, very little Of the latter bringing over zoe
per bushel. Now let it be remembered that there
Is no difference IN the corn when ii is first har.
vested, aud the importance Of the subject will he
manifest The corn when picked should be placed
IN cribs, raised foot or more from the ground,
with narrow base swelling on each side towards
,he caves, rooted as to te perfectly water tight
Much corn is damaged on the cob by exposure to
storms and by want Of air when dying The corn
should not be shelled unit, it is to be sent to mar
ket 1t should then be thoroughly famed and
cleaned from the chat. ns the presence Of ,hi,
substance is one Of the principal causes Of heat.
Ing in coming forward Even when corn passes
as strictly merchan,abe on arrival, it will heat on
a voyage to Europe, unless perfectly clean when
sent abroad. More than twothirds of the ives.
tern corn which has come forward this season has
proved unsound, simply for want of precaution on
the part nf original original owners.
There is another point connected with this
subject, were an amendment would give an in
creased value to the product but serhaps i,
would be impossible to effect it. We allude to
the mixture which gives its name 70 most Of the
western corn in market Yellow or white, when
said separately, will average one month with
another, about &c. per bushcl each more thar
mixed, which is but the same corn thrown to
gether. The white is wanted for different mar
ket and the yellow corn is much more attractive
when placed by itself Jour of Com.
