COPPERAS FOE CORN.

The chronological journal gives the
following result as an experiment with
seed corn: -Four boxes of earth, alike
in quantity and exposure to light and
heat, were planted at the same time
with corn from Il single ear, and placed
in a physicians office. I'm one box dry
corn was planted; in another, seed pre-
viously soaked in clean warm water /:
the third, seed that had been soaked in
a solution of lime water: in the fourth,
seed soaked in chloride Of lime and cop
peras water, equal paris. One week
after, the dry corn had not terminated !;
the corn in the second box had just cont
mcnccd to sprout tina, in The third box
was just showing the green blades, and
that in the fourth box lad grown near
ly three inches high. Copperas water
will prevent birds and worms from cat
ing the seed, and one pound OF dried
copperas viii soak enough for twenty
acres"

JERSEY cows.

The rage for fashionably bred Jerseys
promises, or perhaps we should say
threatens, TO equal the fever for Short
horns, which eliminated in the New
York Mills sale OF 1873. At the sale OF
Jersey stock, the property Of Mr.. J. ID.
Wing, held in New York, May 9th, the
highest prices ever paid for this class of
stock were obtained. At this sale, five
cows sold for 81 eco, 81 200, ,25s, ST.
$50, and 50 900 respectively. For three
bulls, $500, 5000 and $500 were OBJ
tanned, the last figure having been paid
for the bull Polonius, of the "Alphea''
strain, which means that he is directly
descended from the COW Alphea, said 10
have given yield oftwenty-iive pounds
of butter in one week. The average
price Of forty cows and heifers disposed
of at this sale was S45l 20, and of SIX
bulls and bull calves, 1912 80.

wATERMEL0NS FOR HOME USE.

While thick rind melons are desir-
able for shipping purposes, the thin
rind melons will serve well for home use.
Among the best of these for general
culture is the mountain sweet, a round
fruit of scarlet flesh and sugary flavor.
The black Spanish and Peerless are 9TH
or desirable thin-rind varieties. Select
warm, light ground sandy land is
best and plant in hills about eight feet
apart. In preparing the hills let them
be dug out broad and deep, then fill in
with Il good portion of thoroughly de-
composed stable manure mixed well
with the soil. The hills should be raised
a few inches above the level, as this
makes them warmer, and will also pre-
vent flooding and packing of the hills
during heavy rains. If the seed fails TO
germinatc freely or the striped bugs in
terfcre with gaining L satisfactory stand,
replant until stand is obtained. The
bugs which disturb the first planting
often fail 10 touch the second one. Use
plenty Of seed TO allow for all ener@cn-
cics, and when the plants are well up,
thin out, leaving two or three vines on
~ TO hill, and cultivate thoroughly.
An ounce of seed is sufficient for about
one hundred hills. The plants will fruit
better by occasionally pinching the lead
ing shoots off the vines. Tar water
sprinklcd over the vines when the bugs
first appear often proves efiicacions.
Better still is mixture of SCOT and
wood ashes busted on the plants when
they are wet with dew. A correspond
cnt of the Practical Farmer. SAYS that
his remedy for the striped bug bugs on
melon vines is a free use of BRAN AS
soon AS the vines appear above the
ground, he puts handful of bran on
each hill, taking care to cover the leaves
and heap ii about the stem little. If
there comes heavy rain to beat it.on,
more bran is applied. Heavy clay lands
devoted to this crop may be greatly i'm
proved by the addition of sand to each
hill, Incorporated with the manure and
native Garth World.

REMEDY FOR CABBAGE WORMS.

OF all the many remedies that have
been tried for the imported cabbage
WORM since il first began TO spread over
the country and TO play havoc. with our
cabbage fields, few if any, have given
entire satisfaction. IL is safe TO say that
the most satisfactory remedy so far dis
covered is in the use OF pyrcthrum
We were the first 10 apply this in 1879,
but did not care 10 recommend il until
further experiments had been made.
These we have made the present year,
and caused TO be made by number of
other agents and correspondents. The
general experience is more favorable,
and we unhcsitatingly recommend il
for all the different worms affecting the
leaves ofour cabbage plants. - Ame,ican

TIE SOUTHERN COW PEA IN KANSAS.

In another place we publish an article
on the southern COW pea, q peculiar
southern product that will be remem-
bercd by many old soldiers of the war
Of the Rebellion, but which is to most
Kansas people an entire stranger. We
refer to this subject here more particu-
larry TO say that the COW pea fourishcs
abundantly in Kansas, giving very large
yields both of peas aud vines. We. last
year cultivated something over an acre
upon the college farm, employing two
sorts, the ''black" and "clay" varieties.
They made rapid growth from the
start. enduring the dry weather and
great heat of midsummer remarkably
well. Late in summer and early fall, by
their peculiar creeping habit, they COW
cred the ground with dense growth
of vines leaves and tcndrils. Several of
the numerous varieties Of the cow pea
are superior for table use but their ccief
value, we apprclicnd viii! be 10 furnish
food for animals in the shape of peas, or
more properly, beans and hay.
The COW pea should not be sown un-
til the warm weather has fairly set in
and not later than the middle of June.
Where the object is the growth of vines
for the hay they afford or where it is
desired TO plow under the foliage for the
sake Of the green manure which this
plant furnishes, the peas may be sOwn
broadcast, and need no further atten-
ton until the harvest time. But where
the object is the growth of the peas, we
should prefer 10 cultivate in drills about
thirty..inchcs apart stirring the ground
occasionally with the cultivator during
the early stages of the plant.-I'rofcsor
Shelton.

The COW pea is worthy OF being intro
duccd TO every farmer. lis value as al
article of food for man and beast, th'
large crops of fodder (bushy vinc) i
produces, IFS adoption TO the lishtcs
and poorest soils. and its usefulness a
a manurial crop, places il far above
many other plants that arc grown tt
its exclusion. Ii has no enemies among
the insects, and is in that particular
free from damage. a heavy crop of il
will SO completely cover the ground
that not even a ray OF sunshine can en-
ter: and il is often necessary TO pass
over the vines with heavy roller in
order TO get them plowcd under. From
twenty to forty bushels ofpcas are usu-
ally produced TO an acre: and, if they
have been well manfred previous 10
seeding, the crop of hay will be very
large. One of the most important adj
vantagcs the pea conters on land is the
shading il gives some experienced far
mers contending that. by this method.

TO try the COW pea. and those who have
not grown it should do so.
The COW pea, though called pea. is
properly bean. II viii grow on soil
that scarcely produces anything: but
is, however, sensible to the effects of
good manuring, and rewards the far
mer for such treatment with hountiiul
yields. II is Indigenous 10 the middle

lime is added, a venture may safely be
made with clover the following year.
II is planted about the same time as

THAT CONTRACT.

The Journal endeavors to convey the idea that the CITIZEN attacked the char acter, business abilities and profound erudition of the Acting District Attor- ncv and members of the Board of Su- pervisors, in an article published yester- day concerning 8 serious blmder made these parties. The CITIZEN said nothing derogatory to the abilities of any of the parties concerned; 1t simply said they bIundered- and they did. A man may be a distinguished graduate of a dozen law schools and still make a mistake. It Is not question of his learning, but of his judgment.
 The fact that a man Is a bank cashier affords no ,xcnse for his errors in an- other capacity. In the range of our ex- perience We have known cashiers of leading banks tc prove defaulters for large sums c- money, but their financial abilities were never urgedin extenuation of their fiduciary malleasance.
 Because the Acting District Attorney and the Board ot Supervisors are ac- corded the positions of honorable and successful men of business does not make a palpable error right, nor justify them in perpetuating it.
 The facts in the ease are too well known to require repetition, and the in- justice of the action of the Board Is plain ly observable to everyone, save the WISE legal editor of the Journal.

At about half past one o'clock yester- day morning, Death laid lis cold hand upon the warm and generous heart of General Batterman and it ceased to beat, and from this life passed one who, wherever fate or circumstance placed him, was a man among men. The cir eumstances attending his sudden, and to all who knew him, distressing death, were as follows: During Monday he was in the best of health and spirits, even more cheerful than usual, as he had just finished a neat residence at the mine and had his wife with him, and the pros poets of the property which he superin- tended appeared encouraging for the future. In the afternoon he as usual drove down town, transacted some busi- ness, and upon his return complained to his wife that he did not feel well, and that his heart pained him. During the evening the pain increased, and his left breast was rubbed with chlOrofOrm, and he dropped off into an uneasy and rest less slumber. Suddenly he awOke, turned over, and calling his wife by name, said, am going" and with one grOan of pain turned over and fell from the bed to the floor Mrs. BattermGn immediately ran to the door and called the foreman and night watclman from the hoisting works but few steps dis tant, and when she returned to his side he was dead and the soul had departed from its throne of life.
 The General was 5 years of age, and was a member of Mt. Davidson Lodge I. O. O. F.,Sp. c. NJ. of the State Of Ne vada, and Grand Representative to tue Supreme Lodge of the United States He will be buried under the auspices of COchise County Lodge No. !, l. O. O.

In all the walks of life his courage commanded admir- ation, his honesty, integrity and truth fulness won respect, and the many acts emanating from generous and noble heart, the friendship of all who knew him. He leaves wife and tNO children, both of whom are grown, one being the wife Of prominent Nevada lawyer, Mr Robert H. Lindsay. The sincere sym pathies of our people are extended to them. For the present the body will he inferred here, but as soon as the roads will permit it will be transferred for per manent burial at Carson, Nevada Nugget.

Every mining camp in the country ought to adopt measures orplacing facts and figures as tO its production and ad- vantages properly before the public, whilst miners and others who can form uiate their ideas upOn paper, should pen for their local press, as well as for Jour nals abroad, such features relative to their sections as may interest the gen. eral reader abroad. Upon this import ant point an esteemed exchange says that it Is suite singular how careless and needless of the opportunities presented on every hand are the people of the mining districts in neglecting tO give iu- formation to the papers of the vicinity regarding their development and pros- poets. They will sit for hours loafng languidly on store boxes, or about a si- loon, and the burden uf their conversa- tiOn will be a lament because capital does not come to invest with them. be- cause prOspectors and professional mi- ners seek other destinations, and be- cause that prosperity which character izes other localities appears to shun theirs. At the same time the editor who will circulate their statements, If they will make them, to the four quarters of the globe, who will give them a status among capitalists, and cheerfully pre- sent their attractions to men seeking opportunity for profitable labor. will al- most beg of them to pen an occasional line and assist him in the good work for their advantage. Hiding a light under a bushel is really very poor policy. Many superior localities go begging where inferior camps are enjoying pop ularity, and this on account of a proper lack of presentation to the public -Ral- way and Mining Gazette.

 The London Times says the almos. daily rains are steadily interfering with the harvest, and unless fine weather sets in irreparable injury will be caused the wheat crop, much of which has been cut for some time. A large acreage vet remains in the fields awaiting suitable weather fer carrying, while reaping has been suspended in some places.
 A Denver dispatch says the heavy rains of the past months, which have in- terfered with business and caused large damages throughout the State, now ap- pears to be over and the weather settled.

 Judge Lawrence, First Comptroller of the Treasury, rendered decision III which he maintains if a contract with the Government is sold by the contract ing party, the contract itself k annulled and that any person or party selling such contract runs the risk of obtaining no pay. The opinion is based on the ground that the original contractor in such event does not perform the service and the purchase of the contract viO- lates existing law
