VALUE OF IHs CORN UaoP

Frequently corn land can be advan-
tageously prepared in the fall,
As food for man and beast no other
crop in this country approaches corn.
The United States produce more
bushels of corn than of all other grains
combined.
The great value of the millions of
pounds of pork sold each year in our
markets is derived from corn.
An average corn crop is worth a
million dollars more than the con-
bined value of all other grains.
Seven -tenths of the dry portion of
corn is pure starch, and starch 0rms
about four fifths of all human food.
No other cereal crop, says an ex-
change, has for $50 years been so free
as a whole, from injury by insect pest,
as corn.
The Farmers Review of this week
says that more complete returns from
the corn belt confirm previous reports
of short crop. In Michigan thirteen
counties give a yield of Ga! bushels per
acre.
Farmers can improve their corn by
growing seed corn 10 patch by itself,
where special attention shall be given
to the matter of fertilization. Now is
the time to mature plans for next years
planting.
If corn ensilage can be put up at
from 25 to so cents per ton, why
should a farmer pay out $40 a ton for
bran and shortsp This may help tc
answer the question: What should
dairyman do in time of drouth? =,

A STIRRING
AND LARGE
BUSINESS.

Another freshet OF business
on Saturday that we were
prepared for and expected.
1t was as exciting at times
as a borough ratification
meeting, with swiftly chang
ing files of customers pick
ing their passage through
other groups of customers
to get this honest and true
clothing to meet winter with.
We had our fullest posi-.
BILE complement of salespeo-
pie at work and every spoke
in the wheel going.
Said one: "You wouldn't
see a crowd like this in any
clothing store in New York
or Philadelphia-that / can
tell YOU"
Clearly enough people
were content and bought
with royal good will and
readiness because prices and
the goods pleased.
It's not singular, with
Harris (geuuine) Bea ,er
Overcoats to be bought for
$50;
Or, a "Wire Twist" (won-
derfully strong) at $12;
Or, a Satin-L ned Over
coat at 500;
Or, a Suit "Wire:T wis"
$14.
These go to the very
quick OF participation for
goodness and economy.

The Prohibitionists.

A mass meeting of the prohibitiOnists
was held in the court house last Saturday
Nothing of importance transpired except
two or three parties made speeches and
publicly declared their independence
from old party alliance, and a deteFma
nation to support for public office only
men who are opposed to whiskey traffic.
They are not particular to have those
men selected from the Democratic or Re
publican party they only want sober in
tclligent and honorable men. The con-
vention adjourned subject to the call of
the chairman The more independence
among the people the b.tter for us all ;
then men will be elected upon merit and
not upon party strength and fraud Let
us all be independent and vote only for
good men, whether they belong to our
party, creed Or race. Independence is

Resting After Meals.

A friend Of the writer, who has suf-
cred from dyspepsia during almost her
entire life, considers the suggestions in
the following extracts from an article in
a recent issue of the Journal Of Health to
be the most in accord with her own OK
pefience Of anything on the subject lately
published:
Hurried eating OF meals, followed i'm
mediately by some employment that oc-
cupies the whole attention and takes up
all, or nearly all, of the physical energies,
is sure to result in dyspepsia in one form
or another. Sometimes it shows itself in
excessive irritability, sure indication
tl.at nerve force has been exhausted; the
double draught in order to digest the
food and carry on the business has been
more than nature could stand without
being thrown out of balance. In an
other case the person is exceedingly dull
as soon as he has few minutes of leis-
urc. The mind seems dead blank, and
only moves in its accustomed, channels,
and then only when compelled. This,
also, is an indication of nervous exhaus-
ton. Others will have decided pains in
the stomach. or a sense of weight, as if
heavy burden was inside.
Others, again, will be able to eat
nothing that will agree with them;
everything that isput inside the stomach
is made the subject of violent protest
on the part of that organ, and the person
suffers untold agonies in consequence.
Others suffer from constant hunger. They
may eat all they can and be hungry still.
If they feel satisfied for little time the
least exertion brings on the hungry feel
ing and they can do no more until some
thing is eaten. 1t is almost needless to
say that this condition is not hunger, but
inflammation of the stomach. Scarcely
any two persons are affected exactly in
the same way. the disordered condition
manifesting itself according to tempera-
ment and occupation, employments that
call for mental work and those whose
scene o. action lies indoors affecting per-
sons more seriously than those carried on
in the open air and those which are merely
mechanical and do not engage the mind.
All, or nearly all, of these difficulties
of digestion might have never been
known by the sufferers had they left
their business behind them and rested a
short time after eating, instead of rush
ing off to work Immediately after hastily
swallowing their food.
Nature does not do two things at a
time, and do both well, as a rule. All
know that when force is divided it is
weakened. If the meals were eaten slow
ly, without pre-occupation of the mind,
and the stomach allowed at least half an
hours chance to get its work well under
taken before the nervous force is turned
in another direction, patients suffering
from dyspepsia would be few.
A physician once said: at does not
SO much matter when we eat as how we
eat it." While this is only partly true,
it certainly is true that the most health
full food hurriedly eaten, and immedi-
ately followed by work which engages
the entire available physical and mental
forces, is much worse than meal of poor
food eaten leisurely and followed by an
interval of rest.

How the Premier Saved his Dog.

The Vienna F,emaenblatt gives an an.
ecdote of the Greek ex-Premier Delyan-
mis-, which places him in a more amiab!e
light than has been she'd upon him by
his public performances. lie is gieit
lover of dogs, and he had one which was
as dear to him as the famous Reichsund
to the Chancellor of the German Empire.
When he was crossing from the Pir.eus
to Constantinople on board Of an English
steamer, the dog fell into the water.
Deliyannis entreated the captain to stop
the vessel in order that he might rescue
his dog. Impossible" replied on:
countryman; my orders are strict.
dare not stop even if it were a man in
stead of dog overheard" 'Good !"
laconically answered the Greek, and at
the same moment he sprang over the
ships side, and swan for his dog. The
sequel may be guessed. The English
sailor could not resist such spectacle OF
bravery, and in spite of his strict orders
he stopped his ship, and saved both the
man and the doe. Pail Mall Gazette.
