DRILLING CORN.
Recent Experiments In Planting and Har-
rcsting a satisfactory Crop.

Recent Experiments In Planting and Har-
restins a Satisfactory Crop.
planted my corn this year in drills
instead OF hills and can now report re-
suits. Although it was sowcd with an
ordinary wheat drill which did the
work poorly, and in spite Of the sue.
cceding drought which caused i, to
come up very ~uncvcnly, it has matured
II very satisfactory crop. am well
pleased with this method Of planting.
Bnt two things are requisite TO insure
the greatest uccess A good planter
Is needed so that the corn shall he
evenly distributed, and then the
smoothing harrow should be put over
the ground at least once . week for the
first five or six weeks. This thorough
ly destroys all weeds when small, and
renders the use of a hoe s%uperfluous cx-
cept to cut up thistles or other percn-
nial'weeds.
There a be but objection raised
to drill planting of corn, when treated
as above described, and that is the in
creased labor of cutting. This can be
entirely obviatcd by cutting it with a
self-raking reaper, which will do il
easily, putting it in fine shape for bind.
ing, If only a single row is taken at a
time. BY letting the corn lie one day
in the gavel before binding, it will be
so wilted that any stalk will answer a;
II binder.
When corn is SO cut and bound in
bundles and these are set into rattle,
largo shocks, 1t cures out nicely and i,
in the best possible shane for haulinp
into the barn or shed for huskinc,.
And by using the reaper It can be cut,

GIVE THE GIRLS A GRANGE.

EDS JoURNAL:-There is not citizen of
Marietta who, if asked whether first class
graded high school, or seminary for our girls
was not very much needed but would an
swer most decidedly in the affirmative But
il asked whether it is desired and wanted
enough fer us to make some effort and sac

sum. Are there not enough people who
are sufficiently interested in the welfare OF
our girls, to make up the balance required
to give US FIRST class seminary.
