'no heiss'ioof "a. lime is telling ON him, but
ms head is very level. He chiefly asked me
questions about General Grants failure, and ex
pressed some sympathy for such change in the
condition of an eminent family. File did not ask
any questions about the nomination, and as his
home is Illinois Ire is natural here. Robert
Lincoln has been brought up by Davis. The
Chicago people university respect Lincoln
though they do not know much about him.
Some of them have said to 1ne that he was
making as much of a mistake in listening to his
interested friends, who want to him in the
presidency, as General Grant did when he con

presidency 1t was the movement to nominate
Grant here three times which disturbed his

Great Ambitions up to the top of high Hill and
secretly contracted with each one to deliver up
to him the Earth in payment for assistance to
be rendered in raid on the White House. Each
Of the Great Ambitions conided the Flattering
Proposition to a few newspaper friends on the
Dead Quiet, and the next morning the Whole

thereupon nailed the Enormous Personal Mag

And, besides, the Earth did not belong TO him.

Midland Farmer
After the experience of the last few years in
regard to the rapid increase of smut" in corn,
we woulG urge, and keep urging the soaking
of seed corn in sulphate of iron brine Last
year smut was exceptionally severe. 1t polutes
the stalk and leaf as well as the ear. The grains
Of smut are so fine and adhere so tenaeiously to
the ain, that it is apt to be ground up with the
grain into meal. and thus poison the bread of the
farmer, as well as all of his stock 1t is more
than possible that much of the languor,
pains feebleness, chils, hillary diseases
of the farmers household can be
traced to handling smutty corn and fodder, in
hallng the particles and eating them in the daily
bread. No poison is more insidious certain
than that of those fungoid productions.
1t Is so small an operation TO the farmer regu-
larly TO brine his seed corn that there is no ex-
cuse for neglectins it, especially when such
grave consequences are dependent on il. Wheat,
rye, oats, and even timothy should all be treated
thus. because smut. rust ergot, etc, are SO
nearly related in their nature propagation and
effects, that extreme caution is demanded.

the grain the weak plants shrivel and die Spring
grain must be sown thinner when sown with
grass then what is lost in grain is gained in
thickness of the clover or grass crop Thinly
sown grain generally produces heavier larger
heads and more stems, consequently the crop is
not lessened. Grass is as important to farmers
as grain, and should not be sacrificed for the
chances on the latter. 1t should be made the
primary crop. for the soil is renewed by it while
it is exhausted by grain
