HELpINa rHE FARMERs.

Mr. W. NJ Sage. general freight agent
of the Chicago, Rock Island 81 Pacific
road, has issued the following circular to
all agents; lowing to the unfavorable
condition of corn in the states of Illinois,
Iowa and Missouri, it may be necessary to
obtain seed for the ensuing season from
the adjoining states. If this is fact, in
wish you to consult with responsible grain
buyers at your station, and ascertain what
quantity of corn the farmers wish to buy
for planting.
1.-The grain dealers and ourselve being
mutually interested in this our Joint OBJ
ject should be to assist the farmers to OBJ
tain good seed at as low price as possible.
To accomplish this we suggest that the
grain men take hold of the matter and
purchase suitable grain at some advan-
tageous point in Kansas, Nebraska, or
Missouri, and furnish the same to farmers
at the actual cost price; we, on our part,
transport ing such grain over our line free
of charge.
1T must be distinctly understood that
no farmer will be permitted to purchase
more of this corn than is actually needed
for planting; and also. that the grain
dealers will furnish you with a list of the
names and address of farmers to whom they
have sold the corn, stating the quantity, in
order that our freight charges. may be re-
funded to the grain dealers.
please give this your prompt atten-
ton, and advise me as soon as possible
what quantity of seed is required at your
station"
