CORN CULTURE.

culture. Showing the Yield for the Year.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov. 1.-THE
November corn report of the Depart-
n-eGt of Agriculture shows planting later
and re-planting more general than for
several years. The prospect up TO July
lst was discouraging, causing a sharp
rise ia the values of grain. Since then
the season has been steadily favorable
TO the growth and ripening and deferred
freezes made the growing period of fully
the average length. The condition July
LIST averaged 50; wss SO in August,
the same in September, and 81 in October
Last year the condition fell from 90 in
July to sc in October. presaging a loss
of over 400. 900, 200 bushels, which was
fully realized. The department has
THREE TESTS
of the quantity produced-viz: compar-
alive condition in October, yield per
acre returned in November and Decem-
Der, and the total product as compared
with the total product of the previous
year in October. The highest indica-
ton of aggregate was 1850, 100000
bushels, and it is stated that later re-
turns of product may slightly reduce,
but cannot materially increase, this re-
suit. The present return of yield makes
the general average close to twenty-five
bushels per acre, which is under the
medium yield, confirming he prediction
OF Sept. LIST that the heavy production of
1873 and 1880 cannot be approached
under The most favorable circumstances
which was twenty-eight and one-tenth
bushels. November returns make the
aggregate nearly
1,650.000,00 BUSHELS.
Its distribution in millions of bushels is:
New England, Z; New York. 81; New
Jersey, 10; Pennsylvania Al; Delaware,
1; Maryland Il; Virginia IS; North Car
DINA. 50; South Carolina, 10; Georgia,

Minnesota, p; Iowa, 1856; Missouri, 1873;
Kansas, Isl; Nebraska. ST. The quail
ity of the crop is superior throughout
the South, and it falls below tie stand
ard of 100 in eighteen States and Terri
tories, Only one point below in Michigan.
two III Ohio, three in Nevada, five in
Indiana, Vermont. and Utah, six in New
Jersey, eight in Colorado. nine in New
York, ten in Rhode Island and New
Mexico, fifteen in New Hampshire and
Iowa, sixteen in Dakota, eighteen in
Minnesota, and twenty-five in Wiscon-
sin. Some correspondents think the
outcome will be better determined by
the December return of product than is
now. In former years the December
return has been the lowest. 1t is inn
probable that the crop will exceed the
.boye figures.

Mailing Glass.

In description of the San Francisco
Glass Works paper of that city said:
The principal and most interesting
parts OF the works are the furnace
rooms, where the glass is melted and
manufactured by expert workmen. Tho
description of the new works will apply
to the old. The new building is 125 by
80 feet in size, two stories high. The
lower story is devoted to the manufac-
ture and seasoning of crucibles. In the
center is built the large furnace, which
rises from the floor of tire second story
in the shape of large dome, about
twenty feet in diameter. At intervals.
piercing the walls of this dome, are
openings about nine inches square,
giving access TO the interior, in which,
amid a fierce fire, can be seen seven
large clay crucibles, each containing one
ton Of melted glass, and almost white
heat, like their contents. Around this
dome, on raised platform, stand the
workmen, each armed with long, hol-
low rod of iron, one end of which they
dip into the molten glass. A few turns
winds upon the tube quantityof thick,
molten material, which is then with
drawn and held high in the air while the
workman blows through the tube until
the glass begins to expand. Then the
soft bulb of the red-hot glass is rolled
rapidly over stone to shape il properly
for blowing, and then dropped down
into an open mold, which the workman
closes by lever operated by his foot.
When shut into the mold, few strong
blows into the tube causes the glass 10
expand and fill the mold exactly. The
mold is then opened, and bottle, fruit
jar, demijohn, or whatever the mold is
intended TO form, is taken out. The
connection of the bottle with the glass
remaining on the blow pipe il broken off,
and the bottle, parts of which are still
red-hot, is carried to large ovens built
around the sides of the room, in which
they arc stacked up. These ovens are
kept heated while the bottles are being
stacked but when a sufficient number
has been obtained to fill the ovens, the
fire is allowed to die ont, and the in
terror is gradually cooled This process
is called tempering, and is necessary to
prevent the breaking OF the bottles by
sudden cooling in the air Of the ordinary
temperature. The rapidity with which
the workmen perform the operations can
readily be realized when il is known that
the works, in full running order, can
turn ont Fifty gross of fruit jars per day,
besides a large number OF bottles of
different kinds.
The sand. which is obtained in Mon
terey, is brought to the works in bags.
and is then mixed with soda ash, lime,
salt, maganese, cobalt, and arsenic, the
mineral substances being used to correct
the color of the glass. When dark glass
is to be made, like that seen in brandy
bottles, black lead, imported from Hun
gary, is added. When the ingredients
have been properly mixed, one ton is put
into a pot, and is melted through the
night.

matters that were growing from bad to
worse. Judge Hilton hit upon the
happy idea of changing the business in
name but not in fact. The retail de-
partment has long been under the con-
troll of f. J. Denning as superintendent.
That branch of the business could there
fore be readily turned over to him.
The disposition of the wholesale branch
of the business is a more doubtful ex-
pertinent. A Mr.. Grosscock had been
at the head of wholesale affairs, and to
him, in conjunction with three Young
Hiltons, is intrustcd the business for the
future. The branches in other cities
have been long non-supporung, and
they were all closed Judge Hilton
says the new arrangement will inure to
Mrs. Stewards benefit and relieve him
OF many cares. Folks say that Judge
Hilton win not be a loser under the new
administration of affairs He will still
act as steward for Mrs. Stewart and col
lect the rents of her other numerous
properties. KNIcKERBocKEii.

In Rockville October Is, 1882, Joel Stevens,
aged 76 years
Joel Stevens was one of Grant coun-
tvs old settlers. Death came to him
simultaneously while engaged in his
usual ayocations at home, the supposed
cause being heart disease. Funeral
sermon was preached by Rev. Eaton, of
Lancaster. and a large concourse of
people gave evidence by their presence
of kind regard felt for the deceased and
sympathy with the afflicted friends.
Children and grandchildren mourn the
loss of father and grandfather, to
whom they were tenderly attached.
Deceased was born in England in 1906
and came to this country in 1915, stop
ping first at Red Dog diggings, where he
engaged in mining. A few years after
he removed to Rockville where he re-
sided up to the time of his death.

Zopeza was introduced in America

Zopesa was used as directed, in which
ii was not more than satisfactory. Many
write that it is wonderful remedy.

Lean County recently, and succeeded

Complete returns from all the dis
tricts throughout the State show that
the next legislature will he democratic
by fair majority. 1t was the boast of
the prohibitionists during the late cam
paign that they would defeat the Repub-
lican party. Their designs, it will be
seen, have proven successful. But as
their professed object and only plausible
excuse offered for the organization of
third party was to secure the submits
sion of prohibition amendment to the
people, just how the outcome of the
election can prove very elating, is hard
to discover. Had Republican legisla-
ture been elected, there is no doubt but
the question of submission of the amend
ment to the people would have passed
by a decided majority, now this question
will take back seat. As under the BIZ
ennial sessions amendment another leg
islature is not elected until two years
from now, and the next, tours years
hence, even under the most favorable
circumstances the amendment cannot
be submitted to the people for four
years, and even if then passed it would
be at least six before it would go into
operation. From this it is plainly evil
dent that the ill-advised action Of a few
self-seeking leaders has given the move
ment setback from which it will take
long time to recover. even if recovery
Is possible. There is an old saying that
no wise man win ecut off his nose to
spite his face but this appears to be
just the attitude Of the prohibition party
at present. an attitude which viii be
greatly deplored BY all true friends of
the cause. but who. from the first. pre-
dicted just such an outcome if the sui
cidal course of third partyism was con-
tinued.
