WHITE AND YELLOW CoRN.-A oorrespon

nu.riment, b:twe.n whio and yellow corn Tor
man AID beast" SO for IS cur information
gees, there is 60 spccii, ditfcresco Oh tc'ount
Of c,lcr. Yellow c,rn is general esteemed as
better food fer stock, because tho grain Is softer
and easier to nastlcatc, and consequently
more dipcstbl 1t is remarked that 10 the
Soriog. horses will abandon whito corn and
take the yellow freely. The yellow corn Is
1cy,r perhaps, 10 the essential oll', suoh, as
Iuscl oil, etc. The ides, however, that yellow
corn meal Is more puriious than white pro
cecds from the iact that yellow corn Is usually
grown on richer and more Southern SOIL; white
corn more exclusively at the North.
Narhern clrn is illoty and has larger pro-
rorrinn Ct the c,rbon mel king produc's starch.
&C Ssuhcrn ezra ls richer in tho nltrogeo
II Idiog produces. Hence, tho difference is
primarily in soil and climate, and not. az our
correspondent thinks, in coor At the North
yellow corn meal is preferred because yellow
corn is raised in tho Sou h. If prouud alike,
yc low mcal is probably as digestibe es White,
kus yellow corn being S0ltsr, it makes iioer
meal with tho same set OF turs than Whito corn,
ana consequently gives heavier bread 10 bak
