Corn on Lake COchituate.

DIR. Sturtevant, in the Scientific Farmer,
gives an account of his experimental
field in which he is making trials with an
ultimate view to maximum crop of perhaps
two hundred bushels of corn to the acre.
His idea is by thorough breeding to get a va
riety that can give an average of two full ears
to the stalk, and then by tillage and fertili-
cation to make it do so. We copy from his
report as follows;
We will first proceed to give the statistics for
this year, in the form which we have hitherto
used, and then shall combine the four years

The sky Is as blue ~ in sunny June;
The air Is as clear "A In early spring,
But Nature must surely be out Of tune,
For never hear robin sing
II cannot he true that the birds have flown
go soon awayi that their time is past
THIS lovely weather they couldn't have known
But that the summer would always last.
And yet they are gone. As from tree to tree
| walk and watch, but watch In vain;
For only the desoate nests see
hear but the crickets shr refrain.
The trees are arrayed in their deepest green
They give no hint Of the fading year;
Then where, in the midst of this lovely scene.
Does the touch Of winters hand APPEAR
All here by the wall the frost-hower blooms
Sure sign that the year is growing old;
The golden-rod lifts lis graceful plumes,--
DO you think by these could the birds have told?

IAnguidly the water gdes useless and still,
Never coming back again to the watermilli
And proverb haunts my mind as the spell is cast.

Golden years are passing by-youth Is passing too
Try to make the most Of life, lose no honest way
All that you call your own lies in this-todayi

The mill will never grind with the water that has passed

During these four years of harvest, 1875 to 1873

The Doctor says that he regards his crop
for this year as sadly underestimate" be-
cause, though he reckons two bushels of ears
rs equal 10 DuJ one Oh Snelleu corn, III was SO
dry when husked that it would probably over
run twelve and a half per cent. He also
considers his slower as under estimated in
quantity and value. As regards the latter
he regards it as so good feeding that ten
tons of it are worth as much to him as six
tons of hay that sells at from eighteen to
twenty dollars ton. While these figures
are correct for Massachusetts, the Vermont
farmer would have to cut them down about
fifty per cent. on account of the less average
value of hay.
1t is evident that there is much to be
done, not only in improving the seed, but in
perfection of fertilization and culture, be-
fore the Doctor will quadruple his yield OF
fifty-two bushels per acre.
Below will be found the record of our
own experiment in the same direction dur
ing the year. Allowance must of course be
made for the much smaller scale in which it
was tried Probably the Doctor has single

MARY And OTHER MOTHERS.

The week Just over is the great eliminating
festival of the year throughout all ChristendOm
the one which probably affects our lives in
their religious faith more than any other,
simply because it affects us while we are
children. Its teaching, too. it is fair to say
is done more by women than by the church.
Children are not likely to pay much attention
to the Parsons saw" on Christmas. But
there are few homes in this or any other
civilized country in which the story of the
birth of Jesus has not been revived during
the last few days. That mother must be
callous and worldly who forgets to bring her
children about her knees at least on this one
day of the year, to tell them of the
Star and the Babe in the Manger, and
to give them some vague idea of the
purport and meaning to them OF His coming
Christmas deserves to be immortal If Only for
the chance that that mothers sermon will be
preached in 1t. Church sermons, as a rule,
are aimed far above the heads of our BOYS
and girls. Their religious instruction is lett
too much nowadays by both parents and
pastors 10 Sunday schools. und Sunday school
teaching for many reasons too often fails of
effect, and In the best case falls short of home
influence. But the simple story OF Christ's
birth, told by loving woman to the child In
her arms amid all the happiness and joyful
brightness of Christmas he will never forget
though he live to gray haired and vicious
old age.
A woman is more likely to comprehend
the reason why her Lord came TO the world
first as child, because she has borne
children of her own; but she, curiously
enough, is not so apt to think intelligently of
His mother and her part In the story. because
abe herself is q mother The homage 80 long
paid to Mary by the Roman Church has
caused modern Protastants to thrust her almou,
