az Eil"-Drying Corn-An intelligent far.
mer requests the Steubenville Herald to adj,
monish farmers of the Importance of kiln
drying corn this year. lie says the corn crop
is doing finely, and promises pretty fair yield
The weather is remarkably fine for maturing,
yet there is vast amount of soft corn upon the
stalks, which may be saved by kiln drying,
which can be done with but little trouble or ex-
gense, making the grain almost equal to corn
that hardens naturally. by kiln-drying, one
fifth Of the crop of 1859 may be saved, which
will make the yield this year, if not altogether,
very nearly on average crop.
