The large, late corn, as is usually plant
cd throughout the Southern states for the
main crop, should be given q greater dis
lance between plants than the early and
sugar varieties. Corn needs a rich soil.
Do not plant it unless you have either a
rich soil or plenty Of manure. CONNER
cial fertilizers act finely on corn crops.
The richer the land, the more the corn
can be crowded; but the most approved
plan for planting large, late varieties, is
TO lay off the burrows six feet apart and
four inches deep, then drop the seed eight
to ten inches, covering two or three inches
deep, so as to leave the corn plant 4 little
below the surface when 1t comes up.
Thin out the corn sixteen to twenty
inches apart; after the first working, cul-
tivate shallow and level. Corn will very
well bear crowding in the furrow, pro-
vided 1t is given sufficient distance be
tween the rows. Leave the land level
when laid by. Plant a row Of beans be.
tween the rows Of corn in June. Anoth-
er plan is, to check the land off three and
one-half to four feet each way, accord
ing to the strength of the soil. Drop
three or four kernels in each check and
cover two or three inches deep. At the
first blowing thin out to one stalk in O
hill. When planted in this manner, pillow
ing may be done both ways, thereby
avoiding hoeing. The yield, however,
will not be so heavy as when planted &C.
cording to the method given above

Live Stock In June.

On the flush pastures Of June the live
stock should all be doing well. Work
horses need substantial fare, and the less
grass the better. Take care that the COWS
or sheep do not break through into tank
clover, for they will eat enough in an hour
sometimes to give them bloat or hoove, a
malady often quickly fatal. Keep the
pigs in the orchard If possible. They
grow well on the Glover, pick up the
blasted fruit for the grubs 1t contains and
stir the soil around the trees. Ewes with
lambs needs regular care, that they are
not too much weakened by the draft up
on them, and 1t is well to increase their
grain as the lambs gain size. Ticks leave
the old sheep for the lambs, so that II is
well to dip the latter this month before
the lambs are weaned. Market chickens
may be pushed to advantage by frequent
feeding, besides having a free run, If pos.
sible, while they arc growing and before
they are put up to fatten. After ducks
have passed the delicate stage and have
their feathers, they may be given fire..
quent feeds Of food to give them rapid
growth and size. The earlier they are
sold after they become marketable the
greater will be the profit.

Moving the Roadsides.

II should be part of the road work eve
rywhere to keep the weeds cut down
which spring up along the sides of the
highways; and this work should never
be neglected. There is scarcely a neigh
borhood in which the highways do not
mature enough weeds to seed half the
adjoining fields. 1t would be to the in
terests af the owners of those fields to
have the highways mown; but they fail
to do this because the roads are public
property, and they feel that every item
OF their care should be part Of the public
expense. Usually nearly all of the work
could be done with a two.horse mower.
the scythe being necessary only where
there are projecting posts, sharp Off sets
in the fence, etc. Thus done, the work
would cost very little compared with the
damage it would avoid. If the road over.
seers do not feel disposed to have this
work done. fearing that it Is outside their
duties, 1t should be brought up before
the annual town meeting and voted up.
on. If properly presented before the
vote is taken, very few, If any, will vote
against 1t. 1t may be well to suggest that
not only those who have fields by the
highways will be benefited, but every
man who passes along the road. -Ameri.

voters in the state l02, ops did not vote at all.
In 1881 the number OF non-voters was reduced
to U,S37. The republican gain from the ranks
1884, on the candidates for Governor, was
1878 and the Democratic gain IL ,5G5.

IL is limited, will favor bill restricting to some
degree the present coinage OF silver, but it is
not thought possible that any legislation in this
line can be effected. The silver men are appar-
