FACTS ABOUT CoRN.-When this country
was discovered maize was found at all
points where the first navgators landed,
cultivated by the natives, hence it was
called Indian corn. 1t can be raised sue
cessfully for forty degrees on each side of
the equator, except the SUBMITS of the
high mountains and some portions of the
torrid zone, where it is rather chaffey and
injured by insects. The climate between
the two extremes is best for full perfection
In its reproduction the flower is separated
into two parts; the tassel, the male par,
at the top of the stalk, and the female
flower, located inter mediately on the stalk.
arranged thus in nature so that the pollen
from the taSsel might fall upon the siikinu
Hover and make it fruitful. On isolated
stalks OF corn the silk receives so little of
the pollen from its own tassel that but few
grains come to perfection: hence the i'm
portance and necessity of having number
CT stalks near by or in the same field, in
order that perfect ears and full crop NAV
be made. Some farmers still assert that
there is nothing in these facts
The roots Of corn grow much faster than
the stalk at first, measuring sometimes
foot long before the stem is half that length
The brace roots should not be broken in
working, as they support the stalk, and
when broken it makes a heavy draught on
the plant to reproduce them.
The distinct varieties are the white flint
the yellow flint, the gourd seed, sugar corn
and pop corn. The first is regarded as the
best for bread, while the yellow corn is
regarded most nutritiye, and answers best
for stock

WHAT Is PURE BLOOD.

The following remarks were made by
President WEIGH, of the Iowa Agricultural
College, at the recent Short horn Breeders
Convention:
While coming here to-day, thinking of
the important suhject-how long shall
thoroughbred animal be bred by crossing
with scrub before becoming pure blood
The English rule is to cross four times
with the female and five times with the
male. We take half blood and cross with
pure blood, and we have quarter blood,
and at the fifth cross we will have an ami
NAL that has thirty one parts pure blood
to one part scrub-that is, if we compute
the crosses automatically; but when we
take into consideration the fact that the
pure. blooded animal is prepotent over the
scrub, then the animal has but minute
portion of the scrub blood. When pure
blooded Short horn bull is crossed with
scrub cow the result cannot be computed
automatically, for the prepotence of the
thoroughbred animal over the scrub con-
trolls, to greater or less degree, the value
of the progeny. The future beef and
butter Of the country depends on the value
of crossing. | crossed common COW,
poor mixer, with an Ayrshire bull, and the
result was an Ayrshire calf resembed his
male parent. and with not one perceptib,e
point in favor of its mother; thus the
scrub was almost entirely lost. 1t is i'm
possible TO say that certain number Of
crosses will produce aritbmetical results.
The Short horn bull is the most prepotent
animal on earth, not particularly, but
generally: and for example we will take
the seventeenS. Suppose there have been
nineteen crosses since the importation of
1917; at the present time there would be
one two-thousandHl part of scrub blood in
a straight seventh that is, if it was com
prted arithmetically;) but when you take
pure blood over the scrub, you would have
an animal as near perfection as it is posi-
BILE to get. Where are the excellencies of
the Short horn, but his merit and power
to transmit that excellence and merit to
his progency? ! recognize, also, the value
of strains of families. The value of IA
strains is, that particular family produces
the best Short horns We often lind that
by reversion very homely or inferior bull
if he be good family, will breed back to
some of his ancestors, and produce them
The principle that like begets like seems
to be the true doctrine.

LIME TO THE ACRE.-Lime in itself, is
lot generally considered fertilizer or
food for plants, while potash is. Carbonate
or quicklime, as it is usually called, when
applied to sandy soils, does little more than
hasten the decomposition Of whatever
vegetable matter it contains, rendering
every particle useful to the plants growing
therein; and, as one of our noted agrjcul.
tural writers long ago remarked, 1.-THE
principal functions of lime as a manure
appear to regular the condition of the
organic matter in the soil, and to facilitate
its healthy decay" Good judgment is re-
quired in all cases where lime is applied, or
else it may do more harm than good; but
upon light sandy soil, containing a mod
crate amount of vegetable matter, five
bushels Of freshly Stacked stone lime
would be sufficient, Or ten to fifteen Of air
slaked or gas lime. evenly distributed over
the surface. IC IS better to apply lime in
small quantities and frequently, than in
large doses and at long intervals.

INSECTS IN CORN.

There has been some talk about the
probable injury to the United States inter
ests by the introduction of the corn moth
in the Brazilian exhibit. Articles have
appeared in many papers showing up .
the Brazilian exhibit, and bewailing it as
one of the melancholy consequences among
so many beneficial ones of the great
Worlds Fair. A few weeks ago we re-
ferred to the talk that was being made
about it. and offering such rest for the
weary it was i'll our power to do. y few
days ago the writer was making a critical
examination of the exhibit of corn made
by the United States Government; and
behold, the moth 5cas there i'll even greater
abundance than in the Brazilian depart
ment, The case was as full of these moths
as flies are said to he in a molasses barrel
1t is clear, them that if we are to suffer
seriously from this insect 1t will not be by
any Brazilian introduction 1t is here, and
probably has been for many years. If
found injurious hereafter it will not be
that we shall have to remember our good
neighbor Brazil in connection Herewith ;
and we are glad, for of all the nations that
have assisted us in making the glad tldings
of our successful hundred years of exist
ence known to history, there are none
whose name so much deserves to be 1e-
garded with unmixed pleasure as that of
Brazil.
In regard to this corn moth. it is singular
that its existence in the United States
being thus made evident nothing has been
said in our agricultural papers as to its
ravages. 1t is probably confined to the
Southern States, and this may be the reason
why we hear nothing about 1t, as the PEG
pie in that part of our country are too
busy in hugging the dead carcases of an
old-time political supremacy, to look after
such small matter as n worm in the corn.
Our wide awake entomologists no doubt
have worked it mp, and can tell US all about
it, as we have found by experience there is
little that is entirely new can be found for
them; but it is certain our regular agri-
cultural papers have had nothing to say
about it so far. AS it is seen in the Gov
eminent case it must be very destruc-
tive little fellow; and if it exists as we
suppose wholly in the Southern States,
there ought to be something done towards
letting us know more about the way it
works, and what can be done to stay its
ravages.
While looking at the corn MOTH it will
be as well to look closely at the wonderful
lot of varieties of corn gathered together
by the Department. There are over hun
bred kinds, and we doubt whether the
most intelligent American farmers ever
had an idea that corn varied SO.

COUNTING THE ELECTORAL VoTE.-
Senator Morton's bill regulating the
counting of the electoral vote for
President and Yice-President was
sensibly pushed to conclusion in the
Senate, by abolishing the twenty-sec-
ond Joint rule. This rule was adop-
ted by the republican Congress IN
1868, as a means of guarding against
the counting of the Presidential votes
of some of the unrecOnstructed South
ern States. The dangerous part OF
this rule, Iow that The States are all
reconstructed, is the clause in 1t that
" no vote objected to shall be counted
except by the concurrent vote OF the
two Houses" If the rule had not
been aboIished-aud the rule will now
be imperative, even should the bill
not pass the House, the Senate claim
ing that its action 0bliterates tit
was feared that in case the electoral
vote should be close, the House being
democratic and the Senate republican,
one party might, on the counting, OBJ
iect to a State, and by a party vote
in one House throw il out, thus chang
mo the result of the election or each
house might throw out States until
not enough were left to make the
majority of all the States, which the
Constitution requires, whereupOn the
election would be thrown into the
House. Under this condition of things
the remarks of Senator Bayard, who
is among the possible democratic
Presidential candidates, were very
liberal and patriotic. He said
The people of the country. for the last two
Presidential elections had hanging over them
a power by which either House of Congress
could have defeated the popular choice. He
thought the present twenty second joint rule
should never have been adopted. 1t was
seen that it might be exercised by others than
those for whome it WAS intended. and change
was proposed. The rule should never have
been allowed to exist, and he wished it TO be
destroyed now, although he knew the party
with which he was in political utilization had
the power under it to declare who should he
the next President and Vice President of the
United States. They had no right to any
such power, except as provided by the Con-
stitution.

VIRGINIA has refused to appropriate
$4,000 towards the proper represen-
tation of that State at the approach.
ing centennial. This is regarded as
settling the question finally, and there
fore Virginia, one of the original rhir-
teen States, will be unrepresented Of
hclallg at the celebration of the
nations centennial. The poverty Of
the State was pleaded by a number of
the representatives as reason for re-
fusing to vote for the appropriation,
but there was reason to hope for a
favorable result on the final vote. 1t
seems, however, that Mr.. BIaine's
amendment to the amnesty bill, ex.
cludlng Jefferson Davis from its pro.
visions, and his recent violent speech
OF abuse of Mr.. Davis were the hairs
which broke the cameIs back and
the appropriation went under.

SHOULD They VoTE?-There seems
to be no good reason why the lawful
citizens of territory should be pre-
vented from voting for President and
Vice President of the United States.
As the constitution stands they have
no voice III the Electoral College,
which defect, omission, or whatever it
may be called, Mr.. Bennett, of Idaho,
proposes to remedy, by having that
instrument so amended as to include
the ci:izetzskf territory. as well as
of the several States in the suffrage
privilege. The opinion is becoming
pretty general that the Electoral Col.
lege ought to be abolished, and the
vote through the entire country be di
rect for the officers named. The pre-
liminary effort has already been made
in Congress to have this done, and it
will probably not be many years until
the proposed new system is adopted.
