In .>IemOriam.

Departed this life on the l4th of
Jaruary 1884. Mrs. Henrietta Foot, in
the 5Gth wear OF her age. One year ago
this Mother in Israel was called from
earth to her reward in Heaven. 4 lov
ing wife, devoted mother, her chill
dren, eight in number have reason to call
her blessed. She was to them their best
earthly friend. her unseltish love and
devoted care while with them gives unu-
sual emphasis to the loss they have sus-
tanned by her death. She knew how to
make home happy, and she did it. With
skill she presided over and dispensed
the hoSpitaltics OF her home, making
the visits OF friends and neighbors en-
ceeGingly pleasant. During the long
months of her protracted sickness she
bore her suffering with fortitude and pa
tience. She lived and died true Israel
ite and taught her household to walk in
the faith of their fathers, with all the
zeal and fervor of Hebrew mother.
She grated on the youthful hearts and
understanding OF her loving children,
this beautiful prayer:
That thou mayest love the Lord thy
Col, and that thou mayest obey his
voice, AID that thou mayest cleavc unto
him, for he is thy life, and the length of
thy days, that thou mayest dwell in the
land which the Lord swore unto thy
fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac aud to
Jacob, to give them.''
Sleep on, dear mother,
Angels guard thy peaceful slumber.
A FRIEND.

Experiments in Corn.
Mr.. G. L. Clamp, Of No. 6. Township,
made an experiment in a small way in
the cultivation OF corn last year. On
one and-a half acres OF ordinary upland
he made IS bushels OF corn, 453 bundles
OF fodder and gathered II bushels Of
peas. The only fertilizer used was one
sack OF Gem Guano.''
Mr.. Karl Wagner, also of No. t Town.
ship, reports that on one acre he made
35 bushels OF corn and 323 bundles of
fodder.
We hope there will be more expert
ments made this year, both in cotton
and corn culture. In fact every farmer
might make an experiment, and after
seeing what could be done in this way,
by proper fertilizing and cultivation,
our whole system could be greatly i'm
proved. The newspapers will gladly
publish the results Of these experiments
when practicable.
