thickened, falling hair checked, and
badness often, though not always,

keep it clean and vigorous. Its

BY order of Committee.

As stated, in our last issue, the County
Commissioners, 1T their meeting on the
18th Of February. signed the Railroad
bonds and a committee. consisting of King.
Little and Porter, started to Winona to
meet the representatives. of the Company
with a view to q definite mutual under
standing before placing the bonds in es-
crow. At Winona they received a dis
patch to proceed to Chicago, which they
did and interviewed Mr.. Keep, the Presi-
dent Of the North Western Company. The
result was that, owing to the hard times and
unfavorable prospects, the Company de-
ciined to proceed with the matter at pres
ent and the building of the road is ''de-
ferred." This is the substance of all we
know about the matter. The prospect for
a road this year is not fattering,. although
not entirely beyond the range Of hope.
For next year, it is better. The Commits
sioners returned last Friday.

Planting Corn In Drills.

Among the experiments Of the Kan.
sas Agricultural College last year was
one having for its object to ascertain
the relative values of the two methods
Of planting corn, in hills and in drills.
Four ylats were laid off across por-
tion Of the field, very uniform as to the
character Of its soil Each plat con
tanned four rows OF corn, the rows be-
ing three and a half feet apart. In
the first plat the corn was planted in
drill, in the second io hills after the
common fashion /; again, the third was
planted in drills, aad the fourth in
bills. When the corn was about six
inches high the drilled plats we're
thinned out, leaving the stalks as near.
ly as possible ten inches apart in the
rows; the plats in hills we're likewise
thinned out, leaving the same number
of stalks in every plat throughout the
experiment In cultivating the plats
caro- was taken to give each the same
treatment, and beyond thinning, hoe.
ing once and cultivating twice, no
special treatment was given the plats.
The corn was husked Nov. 1lth, aud
the weighings showed for the drilled
plats . yield Of seventy one bushels per
acre, for the plats in hills sixty.two
and half bushels per acre, an advau.
tage in favor Of the method Of planting

acre. BY the bushel Of corn mentioned
