Large Yield of Rye from One Seed

Mr.. P. Smith, of Shortville, n. Y,
writes: ga farmer brought into mill,
the other day, a bunch ol rye stubbIe in
which / counted one hundred and nine
{ (109) stalks. Did they all come from one
kernel OF rye? 1t grew on a piece OF
new land, sowed to wheat, and there
was little rye in the seed. The wheat
killed out. Where the wheat did not
kill out there was now and then a bunch
of rye. Some Of my customers who have
seen this think that there was a rye
head from which these lunches came
but this could not be as they had never
raised any rye oil the farm before and
never as CROP" The Rural New Yorker
says in reference to the problem: "We
see no reason for douOting that the
product was from one gtain. 1t is a
large yield, but on new ground well pre-
pared for wheat, and leaving the rye
plant standing alone is not beyond a
reas enable probability. 1t shows how
large product can be got from thin
seeding il every plant has fair chance

He is now in his one hundred and
twenty-tiIth year and he has never voted.
Etienne Gauldinot was born in 1852, In
Canadian hamlet between the st. Charles
and Montmorenci Rivers, below Quebec.
The great battle between the French
and English was fought near his father's
cabin, and although be was only six
years old he remembers it perfectly.
Indeed, the urchin saw Wolfe, alter he
was killed and Montcalm after he was
wounded. In 1772 ne married lass aud
made clearing on the west side of Lake
CnamplaIn. The cOmmandant Of Fort
Ticonderoga employed him as a scout. In
May, 1775. having come in from scout
ing expedition down the lake, he was
captured by Ethan Allen. He sent his
wife, mother and children to Canada,
where they remained until the close OF
the Revolutionary War. In 1903 he
trapped for furs in the vicinity OF the
Niagara River, and served three years
during the war of 1872, being wounded
twice in the battle OF Lundy's Lane and
being complimenteu by General Scott
tor his bravery. He does not appear to
have taken a hand in the Patriot War,
the MeXlcan campaign, the civil war. or
any of the Fenian raids, He is now liy-
ing with his great-granddaught near
the mouth OF Bul!skln Greek. in Franklin
County, o. He talks but little, hobbies
about the house with cane, smokes a
clay pipe, is quite deaf, but has good
eyes. The discoverer or inventor, as the
case may be, OF this old gentleman is the
editor OF the Clermont co. Sun.

4 PRACTICAL JoKE.-What was con-
sidered at the Time as a mysterious ae
cident, occurred on the night of June u
to train on the Illinois Central Rail
road at Baileyville, N which a freight
Irain ran into another train, smashing
the engine ana twenty-five cars OF tht
former, killing one man, and badly i'll
juring three more. Recently, two young
men living near BaileyVille remarked to
Il friend, what sport they had few
nights ago at Baileyville, frightening d
man asleep in car by loosing The brakes
toward Freeport. AS sequel TO this
remarkable joke, the Galena Gazette, oi
Juiy 10, says that an officer from Free.
port that morning arrested and lodged
in Jail the young men, and they will have
leisure to laugh at the practical joke.

LETTERs.-People may be surprised to
hear that more letters pass among the
people of Switzerland than OF amy other
country. In u year they carry on a COR
respondence Of twenty-three letters tor
each iuhabitant. England comes next
with twenty, then the United States
with nineteen. France holds the ninth
rank as letter-writing people. In teleg-
raphy, also, the swiss beat us easily.
They forward eighty-one dispatches for
each one hundred souls, mOnstrous
advance over our tifty-tour. We should
conceive, however, that two-thirds of
the telegraphic business in such a coun-
try would lie between foreigners. Hol.
land sends tifty-one dispatches for one
hundred souls, Belgium ierty-seven, the
United States thirGy-two, Germany
thirty-one. France again comes IN low.
She holds the tenth place among the
thirteen quoted. Russia is last, with

A curious coincidence occurred in
connection with the recehs death, on a
louisiana railroad, OF young Morse. son
OF the inventor of the telegraph. One OF
the engravings of the Professor, pub
Iished IN an illustrated journal just alter
his death, in 1872, was framed by Major
Boyle, Of New Orleans, and placed on
the mantelpiece Of his dining-room,
where it remained undisturbed until
Monday evening at 8 O'Clock, when it
fell to the floor with an extraordinary
crash. The Major picked up the pieces
and thought nothing more of the matter,
but on Tuesday morning was amazed
and horritied to find chronicied in the
papers the tragic death, at the same
hour in the evening, OF the son of the
gentleman whose picture met with so
disastrous an accident.

WOMEN S AND MEN QUARRELS.-TwO
men we're walking down inc street arm
IN arm, followed by two dogs. The m4n
were talking apparently about women,
which is an unusual thing, for says one
of them, "Yes, by George, Pm tired hear
ing about that luss; every time L go
home US dinged into my ears TIL wish
l was in the Sandwich Islands, or my
wife was, or something"
Then the other man said that he "did
think that women would quarrel over
the most foolish things one ever heard
of, and he was glad tnat men did not
allow such trivial affairs TO disturb their
friendships as women did, and in
fact"
Then their arose q chorous of growls
and yells Ill the rear, and botn men
turned round quickly to see what was
| tne matter, and saw their respective
dogs engaged in a tussle, and Went
right back 10 pat them. There was a
good deal of dust and dog, swearing,
and much excitement and the ragged
edge OF IL crowd began to appear, Wnen
the two owners glded in and jaWed to

desIred effect possessed themselves OF
each dogs tail, aud tugged and pulled

shut his eyes on outer things, and didTG
care cent how either the world or his
tail wagged, SO as he could hold on, and
hold on ne did. Tnen the owner of
tue other dog forgot himself and gave the
big one kick, and red-noseu gentle
man III the crowd who sporJed pair of

some one asked him "what business 1T

the smaller dog.
''Get him of yourself" answered the
other.
''Blast him! l willw said the first,
and he proceeded to deposit sundry re-
sounding kicks in the animals ribs,
wheceupon the owner intertered and
said mo gentleman would kick uog

ticking pants said "that was so." Then
the other man wanted 10 know ''who was

she could lick him if he was" and
there's no telling what might have hap

rived and cracked the dogs over the
