Saving Seed Corn.

If there is one thing that will bear
repetition every year, in the columns
of newspaper, it is the exhortation
to farmers in this corn growing coun-
try, to pick and care for their seed
corn in due season. Nothing can be
more vexatious than the result Of
planting poor seed, and it is some
thing, in ninety-nine cases out of
hundred, for which there is not the
shadow of an excuse. Yet nothing
is more frequent than the necessity Of
second planting, of missing hills
all over the field. it's loss of time,
q loss Of seed, and loss in the yield.
The time is fast approaching when
seed corn should be gathered. The
amount needed by most farmers is
not large, and Of course it cannot con-
sumo any very great amount of time
to do the work of gathering in proper
season-not half SO much as TO re-
plant where poor seed fails to grow.
And this matter of having good seed
corn is very simple one Go early
into the field, and select the ears upon
which the husk has first grown brown
and opened. Take only such as are
well filled out at the end, and on which
the kernels are hard and fiinty, and
generally large and well formed.
Strip the husks back, and trace !"
up the ears, and hang up where it is
dry and the corn can have air. BY so
doing, not only the best corn may be
selected, but it is cared for so that
it will not heat and mould as corn in
the bin is always liable to do. Such
seed corn will always germinate.
Though you may have had good
success with the best corn from the
crib, it is not safe TO trust to 1T. A
single failure will cost more than to
carefully select seed for dozen years.

A MEMENTO.
by MISS FtiZlBFrH J. COLE

This tiny sprig of Evergreen
Grew where the Suns first rays are seen,
Upon mountain proud and high,
Whose summit seems to reach the sky.
Here fought our brave and gallant men.
Undaunted by the leaden rain,
Here friends and foe have found n grave
Where fadeless laurels " er them wave.
No loved one weeps above those mounds
Which on these rugged heights abound,
But sacred is each mangled form,
Here safely housed from battles storm.
Here side by side lie friend and foe,
They enmity no longer know,
Peaceful in death they mingled lie,
Waiting their summons from on high.
A soldier who had nobly fought,
Counting life, fame and ease but naught,
Came hither at the close Of day,
Bearing this relic green away.
Der weary miles this twig has sped
From where it grew above the dead,
But yet its verdure speaks to me,
Of deeds that shall immortal be.
Vain man may rear the marble high,
in mem'ry of the brave who die,
But time will mar the work of art,
Causing its glories to depart.
But high and higher, near the skies,
Shall Gods own handiwork arise,
A changeless monument shall wave,
Above our noble fallen brave.

that they would strive to lay some
sacrifice upon the altar to relieve it.
There are but very few Iowa soldiers

l have felt a great interest. saw
him yesterday afternoon and he was
already on the journey up the shining
path which leads to the pearly throne
of the Lamb. He desired a minister,
and went to the Commission Rooms
for delegate to converse with him.
Just at sunset his spirit wended its
way to God who gave it. Another
desolate home +! more aching hearts !
Oh, God when will this cease
And oh the manly fortitude and
bravery exhibited on these sick beds !!
How the poor, brave fellows lie, sick,
suffering, dying wounded in all
parts Of their bodies, minus an arm or
leg, perchance both bearing it
all without murmur; bravely sti-
fling the shrek or groan when the ter
rible wounds are probed and dressed !;

for our dear flag, for the rights Of this

of many hearts. Bear on, yet little
longer, and your reward will come.
There are many things Of interest
here but We go about very little, there
are SO many things which need to be
done that we cannot allow ourselves
much recreation. i have visited the

They are in rows, close together, with
the name, Company and Regiment

graves are all grown up to weeds ;
the slabs are falling away, and soon
there will be no marks by which an
