A correspondent Of the lows Home
stead says that "the only true way Of
improving corn is by selection and Gull
tivatioa. After once procuring pure
early variety of Dent com, make IN
effort to keep it pure. In selecting
seed always take ears from large, we'll
developed stalks. Choose those that
have long, deep kernels and small cobs,
do not reject the seed from the tip OF
small end Of the ear; the seed from the
whole ear should be planted. In she'll
ing off and rejecting the seed from the
tip or small end Of the ear, you make
the corn later. This fact has been es-
tablished beyond q doubt. Above all,
procure seed of Q pure-bred early va
riety or northern origin If possible"
The Poultry World says that the dif-
ference between an egg laid by aplump,
healthy hen, fed with good, fresh food
daily, and an egg laid by thin, poorly
fed hen is as great as the difference be-
tween good beef and poor. A fowl fed
on garbage and weak slops, with very
little grain Of any kind, may lay eggs,
to be sure, but when these eggs are bro
ken, to be used for cakes, pies, etc.,
they will spread in weak, wstery way
over your dish or look . milky white,
instead Of having rich, slightly yellow
tinge. A "rich egg" retains its shape
as far as possible, and yields to the
beating Of . knife or spoon with more
resistance, and gives you tho conviction
that you are really beating something

The causes of sickness among farmers
are summarized in the Massachusetts,
Health Report to the following effect:
81. Overwork and exposure, the women
being more frequently overworked. 2.
Improper and Improperly cooked food.
3. Damp location of dwellings. 4. Want
Of cleanliness about their houses, espe.
cially in reference to drains, cellars and
proximity to barnyards and hog-pens.
8. Impure drinking water, largely due
to the preceding cause. 6. Bedrooms
imperfectly ventilated and ON the ground
floor, with too general use Of feather
beds. 2. insufficient recreation"
Cabbages for winter use are usually
pushed ahead too fast accordingto Seed
Time and Harvest. That is, they are
set out to early, and consequently ripen
off too early, so early in many cases,
that they will not keep till January.
Cabbage plants set ont the last Of June
on good rich soil will make much bet
ter keepers than il set out the first of
June. To be truly valuable, the garden
must produce something for all seasons
of the year-a constant and plentiful
supply. This cannot be done by SOW
ing the garden all at one time, e. too
many do rather than have any after
trouble with it.
tits common opinion among horse
breeders that the smell of blood will
cause q mare to lose her colt. There
is no doubt some truth in this general
belief. Something like it is frequently
noticed among cows, which are gener-
ally affected through the whole herd
when one COW loses her calf prematurely.
The reason is that the nervous system is
excited, the uterus, which Is abundantly
supplied with nerves, is contracted, and
the fetus is expelled. Abortion is much
more easily prevented ct the first than
cured afterward, when il has appeared
in . herd or stable, and the greatest
care should be exercised in the treat
ment of pregnant animals; moro espe-
cially to avoid contact with dead mat

A PENSION SCHEME.

The Republicans in the Senate do not
mean to give ''the soldier vote" any cause
for dissatisfaction this year. 1t has been de-
cIded to add some amendments to the Mexi-
can pension bill, which has already passed
the house. As adopted In the caucus these
amendments will give larger increase to the
pension appropriations than any measure
yet passed. They cut down the Mexican
pensions to those veterans who are in need
or are more than sixty-two years old.
Widows pensions are also restricted to those
who were married at the time the war closed
The increase is for the survivors of the civil
war. It provides that foreigners shall be
pensioned, while now only citizens are eliei-
BILE. The definition of deserters ia also linn
tied to those who left in the face of the enc.
my, and not to those who, at the last days of
the war, went home without asking leave.
The famous arrears of pensions bill is ex-
tended, SO that claims under it may be filed
up to next January, and also giving claim-
ants their arrears beck to the time the disa-
bility occurred instead of, as now, limiting it
to the time the application was fled Com
missioner Dudley has given some interest
ing information concerning the probable
expenditure under this section. Already
138, ,069 claims have been filed, and he esti
mates that at least $50, 900 more are ready
when it is known that the restrictions have
been removed. OF this total, 223, 987 would be
invalid elaims, a majority of which after allow
ing 25 per cent. for reflections would be ST.
100 each, or total of $1s4, 7s9 .OeO. Wild
ows' claims would number 81, ,O82, Of which
20 per cent. would be rejected. At $1,2O
each these amount to $61, ,519 200, making
total probable expenditure under this sec
tion alone of $246. .So8, 200. This does not
include the amount necessary to pay the
arrears from the alleged disability to the
time of filing the claim. Commissioner
Dudley has not had time to compute this, but
he says it will be an immense SUM- A
skilled pension official said that it
could not be less than $3.50, ,oOo, 900, as the
majority of pensioners did not make up their
cases until some time after the war, and sv-
cry disability must have been incurred
during that time.
But this is not ALL The caucus agreed to
add the SO called Cullom bill, almost in its
entirety, to the plan. This bill provides
that every soldier who served three months
in the civil war, who is or shall become
disabled from any cause not the result of his
own gross carelessness, disreputable con-
duct or vicious habits, - shall be pensioned.
This, in effect, gives all soldiers who get hurt
in any way, or may do so, the same consid-
Grafton that is given those who were injured
in the war. Other sections of the bill pzo-
vide for the expenditure of other vast sums
of money.
The senator's, it is said, do not expect the
house will fall in with this scheme, but II it
does not the Republican senator's expect to
be recognized as the only real friends of the |
soldiers. Some Republican senators do not |
like the idea, but 1t is not expected that |
there will be any ''kicking"
