Experiments With Sulphuric
Acid.

Experiments of an interesting and val
liable character have been made with a
view to counteracting the damaging eff
fects produced by sulpharic acid, which
the combustion of ordinary illuminating
gas causes, in sufficient quantities, by
destroying the binding OF books and
furnishing the lettering on their
acks-besides, of course, vitiating the
atmosphere to degree uniaverable to
health. In these experiments. two
plates of finely perforated zinc we're
suspended, one three and the other
twelve inches above the burner. At the
end of three months, the lower plate
showed an accumulation of the ordinary
brownish- black deposit aud q turing Of
sulphate Of zinc, but the upper plate
was only slightly affected. From these
results it would appear that a single
plate Of perforated zinc. about foot

able to use the cultivator in corn after
it is high enough to tassel out. AS a
rule corn is so brittle at that height
that more or less will be sure to break
off when the frame passes over it. The
main economy of the cultivator is in
saving of labor. One man and team
with a walking cultivator will 60 over
the same amount of ground in one day
that it would take two men and two
plows, and two horses to work, in the
same time. AS the work can be done
so much more rapidly, and the crops
gone over oftener, the ground kept in
such a good condition that it can be
worked as often as desired and left in
better condition for the crop that is to
follow-as they do not run SO deep, and
therefore do not disturb the growing
roots as much as the plow-we think
on the whole, that corn can be raised
cheaper and better with the cultivation
than the plow.

The Implement Dealer and the Farmer.

Western Plowman.
We have frequently cautioned our
readers against the itinerant vendors Of
implements and farm machinery, but
as the season is at hand when these
pests may be expected to affiict the
land, it is well for farmers to be on
their guard. There would be no
trouble from this source if farmers
would make it rule to buy only of re-
sponsible dealers, who keep the stand
ard goods of reliable and well-known
manufacturers. A good, square, honest
dealer is the farmers best friend. He
takes pains to keep himself informed
on the latest improvements in imple-
ments and labor-saving machinery.
He takes every precaution to stock his
store with goods that will give good
satisfaction and do what is claimed for
them. By his own good character and
responsibility he is enabled to get goods
on time of the manufacturer, and tc
sell on time to his customers. If crops
fail and the farmers cannot pay him
he carries them over for another season,
often mortgagIng his home to give his
creditors sufficient security for Their
extension. For all these efforts and
sacrifices the dealer should receive the
farmers best consideration. We re-
greet that these offices of kindness are
not always reciprocal. There are in.
stances where farmers will buy Oh
time of their dealer, and when an ire
sponsible travelling agent happens along
with some new-fangled arrangement fol
doing unheard-of things with minimum
facilities, he manages to get new
stock of experience with ready cash
This is all rong. Business men in lie
gitlmate trade buy standard good of re
sponsible houses, and farmers should b.
guided by the same safe business prin
ciple. They should patronize Their
own dealers, if they have any, and i
not, they should order their goods from
a well.established mandatory. "Bus
mess is business" applies to farming a
we'll as to commerce.

Cultivation of Corn.

N. ]. Shepherd in Farm, Herd and Home.
A good many good farmers will not
pillow or cultivate their corn after it be.
gins to tassel and silk out; others again
insist that it does no harm, urging that
they have plowed their corn as late as
in the hot days of July, when the plow-
ing caused the leaves to wilt, and still
have a good crop of corn. This asser-
ton does not prove any facts; simply
because it was not badly injured is no
reason why it might not have been
injured so much as to be quite an item
in the profit on ears in the crop. One
farmer, and one too that is good far
mer, and generally raises good corn, in
a conversation on this point, said, one
year, when the weather was unusually
dry, he had his hands pillow part of a
piece of corn. 1t was in the last of
July, and the weather was extremely
warm and dry. The work was done
with good seven inch diamond plows,
and the dirt thrown to the corn in a
high ridge. When they came to gather
the corn the difference between the two
parts of the field could be distinguished
to row, that which was plowed show.
ing marked Improvement over the
balance of the field.
This is certainly in favor of late cul-
tivation, especially when all the work
is done with the pillow. Our own expe.
rience is, that as a rule, if corn is kept
growing as it should be from the start,
and is also kept clean of weeds, which
is natural result of good cultivation,
that it can be economically laid by
when it begins to tassel out, and that
the other working is not profitable.
Of course, where corn has been neg
lected somewhat and is full with weeds
it may prove profitable to pillow as much
as twice after it has attained this height
1t is the early cultivation that is the
most economical. Commence as soor
as possible after the corn makes its ap
pearance above ground, and keep it W
continually without intermission unit
the corn begins to silk and tassel, anG
it will be growing so fast and in such {
good condition that any after cultiva
ton will not be found profitable, anC
such corn under anything like favora
BILE condition will make good corn, ever
though we have severe drouth. L
it is planted reasonably early and KEEP
growing from the start it will be in sucl
condition by the last of Ju.y as to b,
practically out Of danger from droutl
when the hot, dry days of Angus
come. Of course protracted droutl
may impair the yield, but as compared
with other fields planted at the sam
time and lily cultivated will be consid
cred good corn.
We regard good care in properl,
preparing the ground, reasonably earl,
planting, and clean, repeated cultiva
ton, as the essentials of raising profit
able crop of corn. And so far as on
experience goes, it is far more profta
bic to raise six or seven hundred bush
els Of corn on ten acres of land thai
the same amount on twenty or thirt
acres.
