Plant Corn.

Tho weather for the last few days has
been delightfully."- warm and pleasant. We
notice vegetation is springing forward
rapidly, and many of our early flowers
are in full bloom. This is really fine
lplanting weather, and, in view of the very
short supply Of provisions now on hand
among our planters, wo suggest the pro
priety of the planting at once of q small
field of corn. A few acres planted now
with seed of the Baltimore or Northern
varieties, will be hard enough for feeding
purposes by the 10th or 18th of July
This variety Of corn does not grow. as
aarge as our Southern corn, neither is the
ear SO heavy, but it will stand crowding
better, and by planting close and early a
good yield can be obtained.
sYhose who have had no experience in
the cultivation of this corn will be greatly
aisappointedwith their venture when they
see it tasselling at not moro than two or
two and half feet high. We know some
planters who cut up their crop last year
because they thoughtit would. make moth
inc on account it's tasselling so low
Others who let their crop stand. got a
good yield.
Now is the time to plant this corn
Manure well, plant close, you will have
roasting corn by the 1st to the 10th Of
June, and corn for the mill in July.
YAnother. matter we desire tocall the at
tention Of our. planting friends to. 1t is
this: Be sure and plant corn enough to
answer your wants, calculating only that
half crop will be- made.-In other words,
ulant double as much land in corn as you
think, with good seasons, would make
you q sufficient supply.
I'VE know. that there is very general
conviction among planters that it is
cheaper 10 buy corn with cotton at thirty
cents q pound that It'll to raise it. This
is a general mistake. The trouble is it
is. never cheap or proper for q rlanter'to
buy anything he can raise himself Pro-
duce on your own land everything ne
cessary. to carry on your planting inter-
ests and then raise rs much cotton as you
can. The money received from the cot
ton crop, is then the profits of the farm.
But if you have to spend third or half
of the proceeds of the cotton crop to pur-
chase such supplies as could be craiscd at
home, you diminish to that extent the
profits of planting.
Another reason, and q very conclusive
one to US, why cur planters should bo Ger
tain to plant largely of corn is that, if
the cotton crop efails,iit involves a total
failure of the entire planting interests,
unless you have raised your own supplies.
The present condition Of the country is a
terrible warning to US of the folly and ru-
inous results Of the system whict:we are
eondenning. Last year a very short corn
crop was planted; the season was bad and
the crop failcd'entirely The cotton crop
planted was very large one; il failed,
and now we have neither, corn nor money
to pnrehase it with. : = :.
We hope and trust our planters will not
be..caught9in this condition again. AFe
Know that they will not, if they will only
be certain to plant largely of corn and
other provision crops.-Chronicle and

HARSH WoRDs.-Don't speak that harsh,
unkind word, and thus make sad the heart
of another, speak gently tits better.
Don't make the burden of another
heavier when it is in your power to light
en- the same. Keep in good humor; anger
is waste of vitality. No man and NO
bow does his best except when cheerful.
A light heart makes nimblc hands, and
keep the body healthy and free.
Don't let others say you are SELFISH and
care only for yourself.
Don't live for your own comfort alone
live for others.
Don't neglect that precious soul com
mittnd to your charge; remember it must
live forever.
Don't turn away from the Bible; it is
the book by which you will be judged.

Il
Mcfarland. of the Illinois Insane Asylum,
communicated the following To the Jack
sonpiNe qii) Journal
.sThe death Of n. P. Willis, the poet,
allows the origin of the ancient saying at
the head of this communication to be cx-
plained.e When Willis was alad Of fifteen
he was sent to receive his preparatory
collegiate education at the hands Of the
father of your correspondent, Rev. DR..
Mcfarland, of Concord. N. a., in whose
family he took up,his residence, and-under
whom his morals and classical attain
mcnts were expected to derive great ad-
vantage. BE is remembered by the wri-
ter as a. boy particularly 'fast" for tEoso
primitive times, wearing rounda about jack
cts, and having round good-humored
face, handsomely set off by profusion of
light brown curly hair, in which it is veil
known he took great pride, even into adj
vanced life. On the 4th of July, 1922, a
fishing party was formed to celebrate the
day in manner peculiar to anglers; on
the banks of the adjacent Mcrrimac, and
Nathaniel had permission tojoin the par
ty-the careful doctor having first learned

only salt pork, which was to be cooked
with-the fish. But as it is apt to be the
ease on such occasions, certain eordials,
such as anis, aoyeau, and others now
equally out of date, found their way to
the scone. of the festivities, in the pockets
of the other anglers; and Nathaniel be-
fore night was decidedly tho worse, from
frequent libation, on which he had ex-
pended the best part of tho 'pistareen
given him by the doctor in the morning.
He found his way home, and in the twi-
light reached his bedroom undiscovered.
But his retching soon brought the hired
girl to his bedside, who, in her alarm, ran
10 the study for the doctor, who shortly
appeared, to find his pupil bent over the
side OF the bed in tho extreme OF. gastric
agony.
why, Nathaniel, exclaimed the gricved
doctor, where have you been? What
have you been doing? Have you spent
all of your shilling?'
please, SIR gasped the agonizcd re-
pcntant, st was the pork! ate and ate.

Indeed, sir, never knew so much pork
before to 60 for shillingp

The ANNOYANCE OF EDlroRs.-A New
York letters writer gives the following
specimen of editorial sufcrings in the
TaJaAe Office:
One day last year, Mr.. Greely wrote .an
editorial entitled "Willian II. Seward. y
Imagine his rage when 1t came tc him in
proof, headed ''lsichard the Thi' i p Yet
anybody familiar with chirography, if his
inLy jerks can be SO DESIGNATED, will read
lily see not only how such mistake colifd
be made, but how it probably would be.
Again he wrote about "threc men i'll buck
ran,'' and prosaic type setter gotit three
men in back room.'' And this, notwlth-
standing the fact that two cornpo*itors of
sagacity and experience arc hired at an ex-
ira salary, because they can read lis copy.
But George Ripley has been thu victim
of the grossest outrage in this line. In
one of his book notices, he took the liberty
of quoting from Shakespeare "'1ls true,
tits pity; and pity tits, It's true" And
the wretchcd bunglcr got it, "'lis two,

An ISprAN SronY.-A romantic young
lady, whose mind was deeply imbued with
reading ''Thc sorrows of Werter," and
other novels of the c1quisitely sentimental
school, approached a stalwart savage,
whose sombrc visage indicated suffering of
some kind, and addressed him thus:
"Why droops the eagle eye of the forest

his race? Does the memory of the red
warrior revert to the past, when his proud
ancestors roalncd through the mighty for

and plough of the sympathizing rustic? ?"
The answer of the forest chief with the
dropping eaglc-eye, was little shocking
to her refined sensibility
