Corn for Feed.

All the kernels except those near
the ends may be planted. Those cars
that have small cob and are sound
throughout are generally preferable.
Those that.grow very low on the stock
are in appearance feeble, and not fit
for seed. The kernels growing near
the lower end of the ear are decidedly
best for planting. Some years ago l
planted four rows of corn through the
center of a field, and the difference
could be seen as far as l could count
the rows. It was evident that this diff
ference was owing to the fact that the
four rows were planted with corn taken
near the lower end of the ear. The
next year I planted four rows in a
field with kernels taken near the top
end of the ear. The result was that,
owing 10 frost occurring on the 10Th
of September, not an ear of good corn
was to be found on the four rows
planted with kernels taken near the
top of the ear. The growth was not
as large, and it was two weeks longer
in coming to maturity than the rest of
the field, planted with kernels from
the butt end. This experiment at once
convinced me what part of the ear OF
corn ought to be planted By noticing
these results, and by carefully select
ing the seed corn in the field, and by
judiciously planting and hoeing, I have
succeeded in raising seventy five bush
els of corn to the acre. Before l un-
dertook this method, I could only
raise fifty bushels of corn to the acre
Indeed, the same corn has improved
so much that one hundred bushels
have been raised to the acre. Any one
may observe that the kernels which
are first formed are those near the low
er end; these, therefore mature the
earliest, and, consequently, are the
soundest and best for planting.-Cor

A jury in this city, last week, ac-
quilted police officer who killed a
man into whose house the policeman
was forcing his way without warrant
of law. In charging the jury, Judge
Brady said that a mans house in
America was his castle in the same
sense that it was in England, and be-
fore it could be entered against his
will the due forms of law must be OBJ
served or the intruder was a trespas-
ser. A public officer, in tho execution
of his duty, was entitled to the pro
lection of law while acting within the
law and nothing more. This particu-
lar case was important in that it in
volved question of the rights of the
citizen in his house and the powers oil
the officer in invading it. If the shot
was fired designedly, though all forms
of law had been complied with, the
prisoner was guilty of manslaughter
but if they had all been complied will
and the shot was accidental, he wa;
not guilty" But the jury cleared the
man, though it was not even pretend
ed that he had any right to invade the
premises. This is another sample o
the average Now York jury N. Y

s'The Durndest Knowing Dog that
ever wore Har.''

He came in from Truckee Meadows
yesterday, did this level-headed dog.
He rode in by the side of his master
on load of potatoes. He was not
pretty dog, not dog of blue blood
and high degree. He was tall, gaunt,
shaggy haired, wild-eyed looking brin-
die beast of unrecorded pedigree. AS
the wagon, carrying man, dog and po-
tatoes, halted for time in trout of a
saloon in north G street, one of half
dozen loungers thereabout made
some remark in regard to the appear
ance of the canine, when thus spake
ye horney handed, frosty headed tiller
of ye soil: "Fellars, that air amt a
purity dog, I Knowles like me,

| What I pride in him for is his regular

town perfectly sober, when I have left
him to see after the ranch, it would
jest do your heart good to see that dog

\ TEMPERANCE LECTURE.
HOW a Clergyman was Ruined by Rum

The Rev. j. j. Talbot, once an
Episcopal clergyman, then a victim of
intemperance, and expelled from his
diocese, but now reformed, lectured at
Terre Haute, Ind, recently. We ex-
tract the following from the Journals
report of his address:
Though the words choke me, l am
here to night to say that every expe-
rience of my life is that wine is q
mocker, and that nothing is proof
against the seductive siren. The
mightiest and greatest intellects of the
world are blasted by her stratagems.

clothed in the splendor Of the sun
light-in beauty that bewildered my
senses and polluted my soul.
But you ask me how this ruin. was
wrought. First, by prescribed stimu-
lan6s. Then, in that internal delusion
that moderate drinking was beneficial,
came the habit of drinking wine at
Joyous occasions. l kept on; I fell I
laid aside the habiliments Of Him who
did only good, and wandered forth at
the bidding of my own spell-bound
will. I tell you, once put on the chains

did, and the anger of God will follow

For five days and nights lay at the

end with spear and ball of iron; and
this vane being properly balanced
and fastened at one end of long iron
rod coming through a tube down
through the roof into the Office, which
has attached at the end in the Office an
arrow, pointing in the same direction
as the vane upon the roof; and on the
ceiling, just where the rod enters the
room, there is a circular piece of can
vass with all the points of the compass
marked upon it, and this arrow chang
ing with the vane outside, indicates
the direction of the wind, making it
unnecessary to go out Of the room to
tell the direction the wind is blowing.
The thermometer, an instrument TO
record the velocity of the wind, con-
sists of four equal metallic cups in the
form of hemispheres, attached to two
arms which cross each other at right
angles, and are supported so as to
turn freely about vertical axis, work
ing an endless screw which works
dials that record every mile of wind
that passes up to 990 D. j. Gibbon,
formerly member of the corps. is the
inventor of an attachment to this ane-
mometer, as just described, which
makes it self-registering. This attach
ment is simply an electric battery in
the office with two communicating
wires to the dials of the thermometer
on the roof, which connect the two
wires together by means of spring
and small pins that extend out from
the outer dial, making the circuit com :
plete, thereby magnatizing a magnate,
causing an amature to be attached, to
which is attached lead pencil, caus-
ing the pencil to make mark for ev-
cry mile of wind that passes by, upon
a piece of paper, coiled around a small
cylinder, which is kept constantly,
though slowly, revolving by means Of
the works Of clock. Upon this sheet
is pinned the time of day and a new
sheet is placed upon the cylinder dai-
ly and the clock wound, and the in
strument then records every mile of
wind that passes for the next twenty
four hours.
The pluviameter, or rain guage, sim
ply consists of cylindrical tube,
something over two inches in diane
ter, and the receiving dish at the top
of the tube ten inches in circumfer-
ence. The precipitations are measured
by letting a rule down into the tube.
and the proportions are ten to one
that is, one inch of rain, by measure
ment in the tube, would be equal to
one-tenth of an inch in the receiving
dish.

Free Beerand Billiards in London

On Wednesday last warrant was
issued for the arrest of James Binden
on charge of selling beer contrary
to ordinance, the warrant being sworn
ont by one of the crusaders. The trial
was set for Friday afternoon before
the Mayor. At the hour named Bin
den appeared when his lawyer, j. G.
McCloud, made q motion to quash the
charge owing to the fact that the Or
dinance had never been legally passed
or recorded. After a brief examina-
ton of the facts in the case the Mayor
discharged the prisoner.
As soon as the result of the trial
was known there was great rejoicing
among the saloonists, and "free beel
and billiards were the order Of tht
evening. The Council met on thai
same night and put the ordinance
through first reading, and inside o
three weeks we will have an anti-bee
ordinance to which no legal objection
can be made, although some of ou
lawyers are firm in the belief that tn
present one is all right. Under thi
same ordinance the Mayor of Zanes

How He Lost the Opportunity .

Not long ago young man of this
city had most favorable opportunity
TO enter business house in this State,
at large increase over his present
salaay, with prospect of soon get
ting place in the firm. His recon-
mendations were first class; and the
officers of the institutions were decid-
edly pleased with his appearance. They
however, made him no proposals, nor
did they state their favorable impress
sions.
A gentlman of this city was request
ed to assertion where the young man
spent his evenings, and what class Of
young men were hts associates. 1t was
found that he spent several nights o.
the week in billiard room; and Sun
day afternoon drove hired span into
the country with three other young
men. He is wondering why he didn't
hear from the house concerning that
coveted position-[Springfeld Union

A scheme is on foot for the estab-
lishment in Liverpool ofa Crystal Pal
ace, with Winter Gardens attached.
1t will be modelled on the plan of the
Crystal Palace at Sydenham, and most
of the features which have made that
resort so famous will be here repro.
duced. 1t is intended to construct a
large aquarium, and to have geological
gardens and spaces for outdoor re.
cIeation attached to the palace. Sew
eral of the leading men of the town
have signifed their approval of the
scheme, and a proposal will, in a short
time, be laid before the corporation
for establishing the new institution
within or in connection with one of

DOMINIQUE FowLs.-In Europe our Domin-
que breed of fowls are said to be getting into
much favor. The journals there speak Of three
varieties of them, which IS correct, There Is
the Iarge. the medium, and the small. We pre-
fer the medium size. for their size and beauty,
as we'll as from the fact that they are excellent
LAYERS and good mothers, and beside are ex-
tremely docile. They have single combs, and
yellow legs, and they differ so slightly from
each other that it is difficult to distinguish the
hens. They are quiet fowls, do not fly, and
scratch no more than the best beloved Of their
race ought 10 scratch.
