A SECOND CROP OF CORN.

In view OF the prospect for a short corr
crop this season, and total failure in
some localities the following suggestion
from the Kansas Farmer is worthy con
sidering. There are some ifs and butts
that suggest themselves in considering
the proposition, though it seems plausi.
bic enough to warrant trial of it by
those who have failed of a crop or who
are likely to be short on feed inasmuch
rs the experimental present it must be
regarded as such-could hardly fail to
produce something in that line and no
doubt sufficient to pay the cost of the
trial of it. Here is what the Farmer
says:
Riding among whitening corn fields
last week, the idea of a second crop Oc-
CURED to us. If rain comes on or before
the 25th day Of this month, all ground
clean enough for listing could be put to
corn in very short time. If the seed
were soaked twenty-four hours in warm
water before planting, two days
would be gained in the germina-
ton. The lister and drill com
bined would dispose of a field very
fast. The ground is warm now and with
heavy rain it would put young corn
forward much faster than it does in the
early spring. Killing frosts do not usu-
ally come until late in October, so that
there may be time yet for the maturing
of corn of the early maturing varieties.
1t would make good fodder at any rate,
and that would be great improvement
over what is now being blown away by
the winds. We do not remember Of any
corn planting in Kansas as late as this,
but we have known of good corn being
raised from planting as late as the 10th
of July in the southern part of the state.
Farmers all understand that late planted
seed (of summer crops terminates sooner
and the young plants grow faster than
the earlier planted seed. Seed planted
now would produce quicker growth
than that planted in March or April, and
the plants would mature in two or three
weeks less time. 1t will pay to act on
this suggestion. even if nothing but fOd-
der is secured. Who will try it:

Kansas City having failed to show up
but 10000 people out of the 0,00O
claimed, the government has concluded
that there is no bowling necessity for the
expenditure there of a half million dol
lars in a new postoffice building. 1t is a
question in some peoples minds if it
wouldn't be economy to move their
present building over into Kansas City,
Kansas. and rent something cheaper for
the Missouri town.

The estimate the London Chronicle
places upon Secretary Blaine as states
man and diplomat, as compared with
Englands premier, is not one whit over
the estimation of Americans, who have
long regarded him as the ablest man of
the age in those respects, but the admis-
sion from that source is something of a
surprise on this side, as it no doubt is on
that. 1t is but to state the feeling that
has prevailed here ever since Mr.. Blaine's
succession to the state portfolio to say
now, that England is welcome to all she
is able to make out of any deals with this
government.

The practical benefit of the new silver
bill will begin to be fully realized in all
parts of the country inside of ninety
days, A better tone already pervades
the business world because of it, and
throughout all the arteries of trade the
circulation will be freer and stronger.
This is not the effect of the anticipated
increase of the volume of the circulating
medium alone, but partly the effect Of
the immediate release of a considerable
amount of currency credited TO the gen
eral circulation but which has practi-
cally been out of existence by being with
held from circulation in order to make
money scarcer, and consequently more
valuable. The measure, even IN the
shape it is, will afford great relief.
