THE KIND OF CORN TO PLANT.

To get the best results you must have
the best seed. The Fodder Corn crop
last season was Of great Importance to
our farmers. The question of seed corn
is vital one. When you consider that
it only requires one-half bushel of seed
per acre, you cannot afford to take risks
for few cents difference in price. Farm
ers should buy that which has been tried
and found true. The Southern Sweet
Fodder or b. & w. variety of corn, grown
on the Atlantic coast, is known to be re-
liable. That which / sold last year pleas
ed the farmers so well prefer to handle
it rather than cheaper grades. Look out
for Illinois corn. 1t is not as good
Farmers who used it last year are making
grave complaints and will not make such
q mistake the second time. The corn [
offer was grown and selected for seed
purposes and Is warranted to grow. The
price per bushel, $50, is a low one but
[ intend to meet all competition and to
hold my own as headquarters for Fodder
Corn in this section. There is no use in
farmers sending away for Corn, as it
would cost more, and If any farmer or
dealer wishes to act as agent, [ viii make
as favorable terms as can be obtained
anywhere. ALBERT LAEDRETH,
Manitowoc, Wisconsin.

LARGE quantities of beans, potatoes,
cabbage and caulihower are being import
ed from Europe, the foreign product COM
ing as far west as Milwaukee. Even eggs
are coming from Europe in large quanti-
ties; 100000 it is said were received in
New York In the three months between
October l and January l. Freight by
rail from the northern states to the Gulf
cities is as high as by vessel from con-
tinental Europe and foreign vegetables
are being imported. The potato bug has
limited the potato production and an
other cause is said to be that varieties
run out and farmers are not careful
enough in selecting good seed potatoes.
The United States is losing the foreign
market for agricultural exports and there
is danger that the home market will
also be wrested from our farmers.

Protection Against Tickling.

Il was a very ticklish youngster. and
my comrades sometimes used that weak
ness for their own amusement. One
boy used 10 show me how little effect
tickling had upon him: but one hot sum-
mer day, as he was lying reading. /
tickled him on the ribs, and he almost
went into commissions. / found that he
was far more sensitive than any boy in the
company, and he revealed his secret to
me under condition of my never telling
any n else. By holding his breath ne
became pachydermatous, and would let
anybody tickle him as much as they
pleased; but of course they always gave
it up at once when they saw his stolid
look. / tried the plan, and it worked
admirably; and it is my only protection,
even unto this day, for my cuticle is as
sensitive as ever. - X. Mcmillan in
Sciencp.

Not far from the market place, upor
the hillside, is the public eemetery-i
forlorn and dreary place full of sprawl
ing cacti and brambles. Some Of the
graves are inclosed with rude low walls,
a few have stones Of turban shape, but all
look crude and cherries. We saw two
or three women sitting among the graves,
enveloped in their white haiks, and look.
ing like the risen ghosts Of those who
slept below. True TO the tenderness Of
their sex the world over, they had gone
to the graves Of their friends ito weeT
there" Near by, and also close TO the
old citadel, we saw tombs Of former
shereefs-low, square structures, sur
mounted with dornes, all Of dazzling
whiteness from frequent whitewashing.-

Meaning OF the Word "Kongo."

II has been generally accepted that the
translation of the name ''kongo" is
'the country of leopards, the root ko
meaning ''the country" and ngo ''leop-
ard" J. Janko, in Petermann's Mittei-
lungen, shows that this translation is not
satisfactory, as, according to the rules of
the Bantu language, these W. words
cannot be combined into the word
'Kongo.n He discusses the various forms
of this word us found among the tribes of
the Lower Kongo-the Bakongo, who
live on the river, from its mouth to STAN
ley Pool; the Bateke, who occupy the
regions between the Kuango and Kongo,
and the Kongo and Alma; the Babuma,
northwest Of the last tribe; and the Bay
AMI, between Leopold lake and the
Kongo. The Bakongo name of the river
is "Kongo," that used by the Bateke is
''Songo," and the Bayanzi say ''Rongo."
All these names are dialectic variations
of the same word, the k Of n dialect
becoming T and S in the others. The
meaning of the word in the Bayanzi dia-
lect is spear" and, accordingly, Janko
explains the name of Bakongo as ''the
man with the spear" the name Of the
river, as fast as a spear" II this trans
lation should be correct, it seems more
probable that the name Of the river was
derived from that Of the tribe. Janko
remarks incidentally that the root ku
infers a motion, and that it is contained
in the names of numerous rivers. such as
Kuilu, Kunene, Kuango, Kuanza, which
therefore must not be spelled Kuilu,
Kwango, etc. 1t seems probable that the
same root may be contained in the word
'Kongo," and that the meaning spear"
which is, according 10 Janko, confined to
the Bayanzi, is also derived from this
oot.-Science.
