Progress In Humanity.

The disposition to raise the fallen. to
befrend the friendless. is now one of the
governing powers OF the world. Every
year its dominion widens. and even now
y strong and growing public opinion is
enlisted in its support. Many men still
spend lives which are merely selfish. But
such lives are already regarded with gen
eral dsapproval. The man on whom pub
lie opinion. anticipating the award of the
highest tribunal. bestows its appreciation,
is the man who labors that he may leave
other men better and happier than he
found them. With the noblcst spirits of
our race this disposition to be useful
grows into passion, With an increasing
number it is becoming at least an agree
able and interesting employment On the
monument To John Howard in St Paul's
it is said. that the man who devotes him
self to the good of mankind treads Ian
open but untrequented path to immor-
tality." The remark. so true of Towards
time. is happily not true of ours.-Mac-

Every farmer is familiar with the APP

Like other grain smuts. II Is minute par

responding to the root in other plants,
lives in the tissues Of the corn, causing an
abnormal growth to be produced Il is
not well known Just how and when the
smut plant begins its work upon the corn /;
it may be that the spores are planted with
the grain and germinate and grow az the
corn plant increases in size. Some who
have given much study to these micro
scopic fungi. are OF the opinion that the
spores float in the air, and coming in con-
tact with the corn, terminate and grow
upon the surface. sending their fine
threads. which answer 10 roots in higher
plants, into and through the tissue OF the

site robs It Of nourishinent for its own

work Of producing a vast number Of spores

petuated. The grains are the parts that
most frequently become ''smntted.
though II is not uncommon to find other
parts affected in the same manner. The
grains first become OF unusual size, grad

smutted corn should be excluded from the
feed Of farm animals. The quickest and
best way To rid field OF smutted corn is
TO pass through il so soon "a the disease"

way the millions of spores are prevented
