a cI.anee IN s.e..a DIslr.ets.

Oar County Commissioners are now con-
templating change in the Road Districts in
this county. We now have about sixty-three
and It is proposed to make the districts larger
and have them conform AZ near as possible
to the precinct boundaries, which would
have the effect Of bringing the number down
to probably twenty-five. We have eighteen
precincts in the county, but some of them
are 50 large that they would have to be di-
+ided into two road districts. The proposed
change we think would be good one, as ii
would simplify matters and cause the work
to be carried on at less expense.

about three months. The country was very
rough and part Of it so dry that the party
actually suffered at times for the want Of

Shifting paOer

Ii IS one of the most remarkable properties
of that wodertul product, paper, that 1t can be
split into two or even three parts however thin
the sheet We have seen a leaf of the lllustra
ted News thus divided into three parts OF
three thin leaves. one consisted OF the sur
face on which the engravings are printed; an
other was the side containing the letter press
and perfectly blank piece on each side was
the paper that lay between. Many people
who have not seen this done might think il
impossible; yet it is not only possible but eX
tremely easy, as we shall show.
Get piece of plate glass and place on 1t q
piece of paper; and let it be thoroughly soak
ed With care and little deXterity the shee,
can be split 10y the top surface being removed
But the best plan is to paste piece of cloth OF
strong paper to each side of the sheet to be
split When dry, violently and without hest
tation pull the two pieces assunder, when par
of the sheet will be found to have adhered &c
one and part to the other. Soften the paste IN
water and the pieces can he easily removed
from the cloth.
The process Is generally demonstrated as a
matter OF curiosity, yet 1t can be utilized IL
various ways. If we want to paste in IA scrap
book Il newspaper article printed on both sides
of the paper, and possess only one copy, 1t il
very convenient to know how to detaCh the ont
side from the other The paper, when split
as may be imagined, is more transparent than
it was before being subjected to the operation
and the printing INK is somewhat duller; other
wise the two pieces present the appearance OF
the original if again brought together

The experiment has been made OF sowing
oats and wheat together with view to obtain
ing winter covering for the wheat. The seed
in the proportions of one part of oats to two
parts of wheat, was sown in the fall and the
oats srrang up quickly and were killed by the
early frost the stalks and leaves lying on the
ground all winter keeping the snow from
blowing away and preventing the sun from
thawing the frozen ground In the spring the
dead oats made a good top-dressing for the
growing wheat The crop Of wheat secured on
the following season was reported to be excel
lent, while wheat on adjoining land planted in
the usual manner was of no value.-ScrtbDer

TINE TO CCT FoDDEECORN.--li crop OF
tOddercorn Is worth the trouble OF growing, II
is certainly of sufficient Importance to be prop
erly harvested. The corn plant, ike every
other, starts with a view, so To speak, to the
production of its kind-the formation OF seed
and all its functions tend toward this end
We may divide the life Of the corn plant into
three distinct stages-gersainot5oie, or getting
establishes dssimilotion, or the preparation
of food material, and seeding, on the ripenTDg
of the seed or grain Up to tire time that seed
begins to form it is engaged in rapidly collect
ing material, ont OF which to make and perfect
the seed, hui this work gradually diminshes,
and when the corn is full grown no food is be-
ing gathered. Besides the fact that the nour-
lshmcnt passes from the leaves into the ear,
where 1t hardens and becomes partially indT-
ge,tible, the soluble substances OF the stalk are
also changed into hard woody fiber to make it
rigid and capable Of bearing the ear. To get.
therefore, the full benefit of the crop, it should
be sowed thin enough so that each plant can
have good wholesome and natural growth,
and then cut it just as that growth Is finished.

The .Imeri'un Cuhirator gives this satstac-
tory experience with sweet corn as stock feed
During the past two seasons | have had an
acre or more to cut up when suitable for roast
ing ears, besides what have fed in its green
state direct to the cows and | think it is the
best tced that have ever used for feeding dairy
cows or fattenng ANIMALS. In either case it
seems feed nearly perfect. The ears furnish
material for fattening or milk, as the farmer
wishes, and the stalks, If cut when green and
well cured, will be eaten very cloan and serve
the purpose Of hay, especially tor working OK.
en-; and while they are so supplied they fee!
the effects of good feeding as readily as on any
feed have ever given TO working oXem."

REORGANIZATION this distressing malady
there is very simple and efficient remedy.
We have tried it with uniform success, but we
have rarely found IA sufferer who would make
a thorough use of it, 1t is so simple that most
prefer to suffer rather than to properly try it.
1t Is this: Get piece of the common salam-
moniac, and every hour or so bite off piece as
big as "A pea and swallow It. If more convenient,
wash it down with water; or dissolve half Il
drachm of the salammoniac in an ounce of
water and take a tablespoonful every three
minutes or SO. An overdose can do no harm,
nor is the substance especially disagreeablc
to take In from one to three hours relief will
be obtained in tour.tiths of the cases. Why
people won't try this simple remedy, after be
ing told of it by one who tried it, is to us Il
wonder but so it is.-Tor PopuN.
