PROPORTION OF GRAIN TO STRAW
The question has no doubt often
arisen as to the relative weight Of
grain and straw in wheat, oat or
other grain crop-that is, in ton of
grain in the straw, as it comes from
the field, what proportion is grain and
what proportion straw? This has
been determined frequently in
England, hut seldom in this country.
In 1876, from 27,760 pounds Of spring
wheat in the straw, as it came from
abe field, after sweating and curing in
the NOW, we threshed out l57 bush
els, or 6,42O pounds of wheat. This
is one of grain to l.94 Of straw, or
1873 per cent. Of grain to 66.l per
cent. Of straw. The same year, from
10000 pounds Of oats in the straw,
after remaining two months in the
NOW, we thresaed OF 1868 pounds
of grain, or one of grain 1856 of straw.
This is equal to AZ per cent. of grain
~ 10 per cent. of straw--a very large

Nos MoRIruRI TB SAkurAMUs.-(By John
W. Chadwick)-
Not, Heavenly Father, that we ask or hope
An idle heaven beyond the sea of death,
Do we, about to die, salute thee thus
With our fast-failing breath.
For we have found the dearest joy of EARTH
In work for thee aud for our fellow-men;
Dying, we would not lay the burden down;
As now, SO be it then.
Not that we claim reward for duty done,
strife,
Do we demand Of thee, O God, our God,
A never-ending life.
For it has been reward enough for us
To do the duty for its own sweet sake.
We have our dues, but not the less our cry
For life to come we make.
Over few things we have faithful been;
Now over many do Thou give us rule;
For work more work:for lessons learned, to be
For ever in Thy school.
Not that we want better world than this;
Rather that this is so divinely good;
And what is best in it doth ever taste
As 'twere immortal food.
Not that We hope to reach some happy shore
Where storms shall never dim the summer
sky,
Where struggle, sorrow, pain, shall be nc
more,
| Seems it less hard to die.
We know too well the good of sorrow here;
+, What after freshness turks in every storm;
What strsus.th and beauty, pain and struggle
bring
In their forbidding form.
Thus, O our Father. re about to die,
Salute thee, not in selfshness or fear;
And dare believe that there is more beyond
Than we have dreamed of here.
