A PERPETUAL SUPPLY OF CORN.
From the st. Louis Republican,

S.S
1t will be wise for Missouri farmers
to avoid rushing their present corn
crop to market, even though the
Next years crop may be short. Ii it
should be as deficient as that Of last
year many u farmer will need q part
of the present years surplus-and If
he should cell all he has to spare now,
and have to buy a year afterward. he
would find it u losing business. Corn
will keep I; no grain keeps better, aud
it is all easy thing to hold over Tor
one year q fair portion Of the present
bountiful crop. Indeed it ought to be
the uniform practice of Missouri
farmers to keep in their cribs u per-
petual supply of this grain, which is
the flesh aud bone of our agriculture,
for a year in advance, as q precsution
against such drought as that Of last
year. The propriety Of this is strong
ly enforced by the fact that our agri-
culture ia tending more aud more
every year in the hsalthful direction
of breeding and feeding. Stock is be-
coming a leading interest III Missouri,
and we ought to have on hand q sup
ply of dry feed to prevent the starv-
ing of cattle in hard winters aud IN
long dry summers. Ii our cattle and
sheep are to be Kept improving in
size aud quality-if our farmers look
forward 10 the profitable business Of
raising bunches Of choice cattle to be
sold at extra prices for the eastern
market or for export, they must keep
their stock in good order all the time
and avoid the deterioration that fol.
lows scant feeding. 1.-THE ESQ, 0OO, 900
bushels of corn raised in Missouri This
year is worth, sold in q raw state and
shipped abroad to be consumed else
where, 500, OOO. 900, it will be worth
rs per cent. more If fed Oh our own
fields and converted into the more
valuable forms of cattle. sheep. mules,
hogs m dairy products. Missouri
is one of the leading corn-growlng
states, and ought to remain so-not
because selling this grain in q raw
state is a particularly profitable busf-
ness or particularly good farming, but
because it is capable of so many
uses, aud of being transformed into
so many varied valuable forms.

THE IMMORTALITY OF NEW ENGLAND

A Massachusetts munster makes
very significant contribution to The

This is how he describes it:

cause of Increasing divorces is the in.
creasiug of adultery. l claim no ex.

the increase of adultery"
That is, divorces increase in num-

cause of the prevailing immortality.
