A call has been issued for conven-
tion of Probate Judges, for the state of
Michigan, to take place at the rooms of
the Pioneer society, at the state capitol,
Lansing, on February 9Th and 9th, 1883.
The invitation is endorsed by thirty-one
OF the Probate Judges of the state, and
the body of the document reads as fol-
lows:
The undersigned Probate Judges of the State
of Michigan, believing that the public interest
would be greatly served by certain amendments
to our probate laws, and by simplifying and
reducing to uniformity the practice In our pro-
bate courts, do unite In earnestly inviting Pro-
bate Judges OF this state, so far as may be prac-
ticable TO meet with them at the rooms Of the
Pioneer society in the state capitol at Lansing,
on Thursday, the 8th day Of February next, al
10 o'clock A. M, to confer together concerning
the important interests over which they pre-
side. The convention will continue through
Thursday and Friday.
II is desired that all shall be present from the
beginning, and that everyone should prepare
list of topics for consideration. Judges who
expect TO be present will please send theil
names TO r. Z. Phinney, Monroe, on or before
February I'd.

The Senatorial Contest.

Another week has passed without any
choice of of U. s. Senator, and the ulti-
mate result seems further OF than when
the first ballot was taken. During the
week Ferry lost one or two supporters
who went over to the opposition, making
thirty-one voting against the majority.
The opposition still adhere to their orig
inal plan of scattering their votes
among many candidates. There is much
speculation as to what will be. the
final outcome. 1t is said that nearly
| fifty Of the members who participated in
the caucus have planted themselves
squarely upon the principle that the
majority should rule, and purpose to
vote it out on that line If it takes all
winter.
The caucus committee have
established daily organ, called the
Observer, to refute the slander0us
charges that have been made so liberal
ly against Mr.. Ferry. The TRIBUNE be-
lieves that the majority should rule, and
that Senator Ferry was the choice Of a
majority Of the Republicans of the state
as we'll as of the members of the Legis-
lature, for his own successor, but it
doubts the prOpriety Of those managing
his interests in Lansing going into the
campaign newspaper business. The
members of the Legislature are intelli-
gent men, and have fully made up their
minds what their future course will be,
and the responsibility must rest with
them. Nothing that this campaign pa
per can say will influence vote. 1t
seems to us lowering the standard of the
election of United States Senator to
that Of ward politician.
The struggle as it now stands is
whether the minority or majority shall
rule. If the principle that small mi
nority can dictate the terms of settle
ment in closely wagei political contests
is adopted, it is hard to tell just what
would be the future organization of pO.
litical parties.

Death OF Rev. H.A. Conrad.

We regret to announce that, contrary
to hopes expressed last week. Rev. H. A.
Conrad, pastor of the Baptist church OF
this village, was called home by death
last Sunday morning, dying the death OF
a Christian, in his last moments singing
hymns of praise to his Heavenly Father.
The work of the deceased in this COM
munity and his well known Christian
character, evinced by his daily walk and
conversation, leaves no room for enc0-
minms from us. His death is a loss that
will be deeply felt, not only by the
church of which he was pastor and which
is 30 greatlyjindebted to him for the earn
est and devoted labors Of both hand,
heart. and mind, but by the entire COM
munity, by whom he was dearly beloved.
He was particularly endeared to those in
the humber walks of life, for whom he
ever had kind word, and was never
known to Withhold helping hand.
The funeral took place Wednesday
afternoon, the services very appropriate
ly being held at the little chapel, which
owed its existence to the labors and per-
severance of the deceased and which, as
long as it lasts, will be a fitting mon
ument to the memory of one so dear to
his people. The services were conduct
ed by DR.. Hartley, of the Congregational
church, assisted by Rev. j. X. McGofin
of the Episcopal, and Rev w. M. Camp
bell, of the Methodist churches, and were
very impressive. The large attendance
at the last sad rites showed the esti.
nation the deceased was held in by the
community at large, and many warm
tear from the weeping eyes Of those in
attendance showed the sympathy felt for
the near relatives SO sadly bereaved'
The deceased was sixty-one years old
the 18th day of last November, and In his
diary, on that day, had noted the fact
that forty years ago that day he had cut
and put up four cords Of hard maple
wood. o etN

How Much Wheat Seed Per Acre?


Where. wheat is. not at all crow
ded, in the rich mellow soil, and
the tilling is not impended, the
average number of stems for each
plant is about sixteen. Each one
produces head or ear, containing
on an average, under reasonably
favorable conditions, fifty grains.
Thus one grain yields eight hundred
grains. At this rate, the man who
sOws two bushels to the acre, would
harvest sixteen hundred bushels
per acre, or else much of the seed is
lost. The average yield of the
country, however, is less than Ill
teen bushels per acre. A bushel OF
wheat contains ordinarily, seven
hundred and fifty thousand grains !;
two bushels, one million, five hun
dred thousand grains. An acre OF
land contains Slightly above SIX
million square inches. So that each
plant has four square inches from
which to derive sustenance. Meas
ure that Oil the ground and see
how small it is. Can you expect a
plant to make vigorous growth on
| four square inches Can you eX-
pect it to tiller and produce sixteen
stems? Can you expect it to ma
ture sixteen full heads? The re-
suit of this crowding is plain. The
plants cannot gain nutrinent when
growing SO density. Some must die
that others may live. The strong
triumph and the weak succumb.
This struggle for life begins rs soon
as the plants appear above ground.
As the plants grow larger they re-
quire more room, and Others must
give way, and very few, if any at
tain full growth. All are cramped
and starved. Tillering is impeded !;
many plants do not tiller at all, and
those that do, tiller imperfectly.
The same is true of earring. Full
ears cannot be expected. An acre
of wheat contains about eight hum
bred thousand heads 1t is safe to
saw that on account of tillering
I these are produced by three hum
bred thousand plants. Consequent
Iy only one-fifth OF the grains Sown
produce mature plants these plants
produce less than One-tifth OF the
proper number of stems by tiller-
ing, and these produce imperfect
heads. This is almost entirely
caused by crOwding.
Two quarts Of seed sown ON an
acre have produced fifty bushels OF
wheat. Where all conditions are
favorable, the American farmer
should not SOW more than hal
bushel per acre. But agricultural
reforms are never sweeping there
fore let the wheat grower try one
bushel per acre.
