Storing Seed Corn.

After the seed corn is properly Sc
Iected in the fall it is quite an item
to store properly in order that the
vitality will not be injured. One OF
the most important items in doing
this is to keep it dry. If allowed to
get wet and then frozen, the vitality
is often considerably injured if not
destroyed. One of the advantages of
selecting the seed corn in the fall and
storing is that there is less risk of the
vitality being injured than if the Sc
lecting is deferred until spring.
Corn left in the field, either in the
shock or standing, often gets wet in
the fall and hard freeze afterwards
seriously effects the vitality, and If
such corn is planted in the spring
there is always more or less that will
fail to terminate.
If dried thoroughly before storing
away and then kept dry the risk of
failure can be considerably decreased.
1t is also important to see that it is
properly protected from the depreda-
tious of rats and mice; they will eat
out the heart unless pains are taken
in storing to protect. Good tight
boxes can be used, or the ears can be
fastened together either by using
small wire screws made especially for
the purpose, by plating the husks to-
gether or tying together with strings
or wires, and then hanging in loft.
Corn will stand very cold weather
without damaging the vitality if it is
dried in the fall and is kept dry dur
ing the winter, but if damp and then
frozen the quality will be consider
ably injured. 1t is always best to Sc
lect more than may be actually needed
so that another selection of the best
can be made in the spring before
planting. There is too much risk OF
failure to cut the corn in the fall and
winter, and depend upon selecting
the seed corn from what is left in the
spring, running the risk of having it
subjected to cold weather when not
dry. AS good seed is very essen
tial item in securing a good crop of
corn, care should be taken not only
in the selection but also in the storing
so as to keep in as good condition
as possible. 1t should be left on the
ear until at least a short time before
it is needed for planting.

Bedding For Stock.

When / see neighbor's stock
standing without bedding, l next take
a look at his barnyard, and | always
find manure two or three years old.
1t is invariably true of the man who
is too improvident to furnish bedding
for his stock, in this country, where
straw is SO plenty, that he places
very little value on manure, or, as is
usually the case, he lives on a large
farm, and believing that the manure
he makes would cover but a small
portion of his land, he neglects to
draw and spread it. | have seen a
a farmer-who is a granger, who at
tends regularly all grange meetings
and picnics-leave his manure until
it filled his doorways and rotted out
his floors. Just before winter set in
he would draw out a few loads, so
that they could get out and in with
out too much trouble. / have seen
his horses standing pitched forward
with their headquarters on foot or
two of manure, and no straw in sight.
| have seen seven head of COWS and
young cattle dragged out for burial
in one spring. l have seen the poor
brutes search for water in a frozen
mud-hole, fall into it and die. l
have seen the blasts Of winter tear
ing through his rickety barns, cover
ing his hay and grain with snow, and
his poor skinny cattle bumped up in
corners of the fence, no doubt wish
ing death to end their suAerings.
l have seen twenty or twenty-five
bushels of wheat under his barn,
with pigs, chickens and ducks ruin
ming to it, and hundreds of bushels
of grain piled on his barn floor, with
two feet of mold, rottenness and
sprouted grain in the center, and his
tools-ah! / have told enough. Ten
years ago 1 resolved to make a
speciality of saving and making ma
nure. l have never regretted it.
My crops are growing heavier every
year, and also standing drouth much
better. There is no better way to
make lots of manure than to put an
abundance of straw under the stock.
The assurance that horses and cattle
are in dry, warm quarters, standing in
straw up to their knees, causes the
thrifty farmer to doubly enjoy his
own warm freside and cosy bed.

Improbable Cows.

At the last meeting of the Indiana
breeders of Jersey cattle it was stated
by one speaker, and the statement was
not contradicted, that at least one
half of the registered Jersey COWS
in that State were Improbable in the
dairy, and ought to go to slaughter.
Commenting on this a Western con-
temporary pertinently remarks that
the same is doubtless true of other
breeds, result due to false notions
in regard to breeding. If this is true
of such dairy breed as the Jerseys,
it is asked: What must be the pro-
portion of Improbable cows in the
scrub diaries and the dairies made up
of general purpose" cows? The
percentage in such diaries must be
something amazing.

THE SUN
FOR
1890.

Some people agree with The SUNS opin-
ions about men and things, and some people
don't; but everybody likes to get hold Of the
newspaper which Is never dull and never
afraid to speak its mind.
Democrats know that for twenty years THE
SUN has fought in the front line for Demo-
cratic principles, never wavering or weaken
ing in its loyalty to the true interests Of the
party 1t serves with fearless intelligence and
disinterested vigor. At times opinions have
differed as to the best means OF accomplish
ing the CONN on purpose; itisnot The SUNS
fault IL IL has seen further into the mill
stone.
Eighteen hundred and ninety is the year
that will probably determine the result Of
the Presidential election Of 1892, and perhaps
the fortunes Of the Democracy for the rest OF
the century. Victory in 1892 is a duty, and
the beginning Of 1890 is the best time TO start
out in company with The SUN.

Tho Oldest Twin Sisters,

Among the visitors in Amsterdam
at the present time are two remarkable
ladies, twins, who are probably the
oldest twin sisters now living. They
are the guests of ex-Supervisor Hand.
One of them, Mrs. Elmer Bennett, of
Fonda, is the mother of Mrs. Hand,
and the other is Mrs Almira Conkling,
of Harlem. They were born in Duanes-
burg, Schenectady county, Sept. 8,
1909, and hence are so years old. They
are remarkably preserved, and are as
active and cheerful as if but two score
years had passed over them. They
also read and write as well as ever. A
sister, Mrs Abrams, now living near
Duanesburg, will be 80 years old this
fall, while a brother, Marvin Strong,
of Schenectady, has reached IS years.
Lewis j. Bennett, of Buffalo, who &C
companied Maj A. ". Morris on his
Mexican trip, is son of Mrs. Bennett.
The New. York World is on hunt for
the oldest twins in the country and up
to date Harvey and Henry Newton,
of Earlville, n. Y, who were born in
Colchester, Conn, Nov. 2, 1900, hold
the twin banner as brothers. Mrs.
Bennett and Mrs. Conkling, however,
are the Oldest twin sisters, SO far as
known. Henry and Douw Fonda, of
Fonda, are only a month older than
they.-Amsterdam On. Y. y Recorder.

Glycerine as a surgical dressing rec.
ommends itself in many ways. Its use
has been strongly advocated by DR.
Chas. E. S. Flemming in paper read
before the Bath and Bristol branch OF
the British medical association. He
uses it in the form of glycerine of
starch, British pharmacor@ia, with
some antiseptic dissolved in it.
Glycerine and lemon juice taken at
night does much to relieve distressing
cough. it is also useful in dry throats.
Full strength glycerine will tend to
increase the dryness Of the mouth and
throat by its power Of absorbing moist
ure, and for this reason it should be
diluted before being used.
For the sore mouth of infants dis
solve one ounce OF powdered borax in
four ounces of glycerine.
For cold IN the head the following is
perhaps one Of the most eficacious
remedies: Solution Of hydrochlorate Of
cocaine, 30 drops; glycerine, 60 drops
To which add enough very hot water
to half fill a hand-ball anatomizer
Passing through the tube will suffic.
icntly modify the heat and render the
application Of this preparation to the
irritated mucous surfaces most sooth,
ing and grateful expedient.
For black eye: Paint it with 3
mixture Of equal parts of tincture
capsci and gum arabic and some glyc-
erine.-San Francisco Report.
