Saving Seed Corn,

In gathering corn, take such ears only
as are finest and from the most prolific stalks.
Never take from stalk having but one ear,
if large and thrifty stalks can be found with
two or more good sized ears. Generally but
one of them is fit for seed, and that usually
the second one from the ground; but if the
lowest is the best take that. Always take
the ears that are filled out to the end, and
that run beyond the husk, if such can be
found When you come to plant, before
Smelling, break every ear, and see if the pith
Pf the cob is dried up, for, if it is not the
corn is not ripe.

II is not the amount of land that makes

"A few acres titled to their utmost extent OF

FIRE IN a MILLINERY SToRE.-Betwcen
9 and 3 o'clock yesterday morning u cloud
Of smoke undiscovered issuing from Miss
Kate GarvGr's millinery establishment,
on 10th between Market nnd Main streets,
The neighb0rs first observed the smoke
and alarmed Miss Carver, who sent girl
down stairs to open the door Of the store.
room. The girl states that she found the
rear door, which had been bolted on the
inside the night before. standing wide
open. A box Of hats, in the rear Of the
siOre.r0om and near the end Of the west
counter, which WIS found to be burning,
was Immediately dragged out into
the street. The counter and floor
were also burning, but the flames were
soon extinguished. There seems tobe no
question that the fire was the work Of an
incpndiary, who perhaps entered the
store room from the cellar, and after
starting the fire made his exit by way
Of the rear door, which, as We have al.
ready mentioned, was found standing
open. II il considered probable that en-
trance to the cellar was effected by SIM
ply lifting the grating in the. pavement.
Only u few weeks since similar attempt
was made to burn this establishment,
which was also fortunately discovered.
The damage Of yesterday morning will
hardly exceed $500.

A DELIGHTFUL EXCuRsION.-- Iester-
day morning groups Of happy children
might have been seen vending their way
to thc,whnrf. The pupils Of the Second,
Third, Sixth and Eighth Ward Schools
were to cXcurt to Cresap's Grove, and the
two bargcs Of the Iron Valley were soon
filled with pleasure seekers, both young
and old. The steamer left the wharf about
! o'clock, and the cxcursionists entered
with zcst into the anlusGments Of the day,
and enjoyed the relaxation from study as
students only can enjoy such occasions.
The romantic beauty Of the scenery along
the route wns the theme Of constant re.
mark, and the wonder expressed that ex-
cursiOns presenting 50 many attractions
were not matter Of daily occurrence.
The day was brimful Of pleasure, and n
formal meeting was not necessary in or
der to secure the hearty thanks Of all to
the Superintendent, teachers and others
in charge Of the excursion.

Kissingen. The boy put it to his lips.
