Removing the TasseIs from Corn

Some experiments conducted in 1890 at
the experiment station of Cornell univer-
sity on the removal of tassels from a part
of the growing corn yielded very bene-
fetal results. A gain of so per cent was
estimated. This remarkable showing led
to further tests at the Ohio station, at the
Ohio State university. Thirty-two rows
of corn, running over quite uniform land
were selected upon which to make the trial
On Aug. the tassels We're pulled from
each alternate row.
II was found that the understandable
corn from the four plots from which the
tassels had been removed averaged % per
cent, while the average from the other
four rows was 81 per cent. understandable.
The calculations also show that the aver
age yield per acre is about one bushel less
than where the corn was left undisturbed.
1t is thought probable that the tassels
were not in this experiment removed early
enough.
The theory upon which the experiment
is based is that the strength that would
otherwise go to the maturing of the tassel
and production of pollen is diverted to the
use of grains and from their more COM
plete development more corn is produced.

How Some Towns Give Themselves Away.
1t is an old truth, but only old men seem
to understand the particular Importance
of honesty, simplicity and order. Young
towns, like young men, are constantly try
ing experiments, only to discover that the
old way is SO much better than any other
that they are at last compelled to come
back to it. Much has been said as to what
is the greatest pity. l think it is that
young men and young towns do not accept
the lessons of their elders without the pun
ishment of experience. Most western coun-
try towns are guilty of all sorts of mis-
takes, because few of them have reached
years of discretion.
However wise man may be in his in
dividual capacity, and however wise he
may have been as a resident of an older
community, as a citizen of a new town he
votes bonds with the recklessness that
characterizes young men in giving notes,
forgetting that pay day will inevitably
roll around and that they will probably
not be prepared to pay. Many of the great
fortunes in the east were gifts from COM
munities in the west. The people conspire
for months to get control of their valua-
bles, in order that they may give them
away.

manage to give it away, the recipients
being men who have probably been VIC

Although the great mass of the people
of Illinois are farmers, the Republicans
refused to place single farmer OH their
state ticket. On the other hand, the
Democrats, in addition to two men
largely engaged in farming, have one
fuIl-blooded farmer on the ticket in the
person of Hon. David Gore, candidate
for auditor. Mr.. Gore, while he has
been farmer always, and a practical
one at that, is regarded as a first class
business man, and will make a splendid
public officer. He possesses in a remark
able degree the executive ability so
necessary in a large public Office, and
his quiet urbanity of manner and strict
business methods will make his Office a
model for all his SUCCESSORS.

OF course Mr.. Carnegie has right t.
hire whom he will, pay what wages he
pleases etc, but dear Republican friends,
was not this same Carnegie one of the
loudest howlers for protection, because,
he said, a protective tariff will ena BILE me
to pay my employees higher wages. He
even pledged himself to do tots, but his
failure to do so shows that protection is
a fraud as far as the laboring man is
concerned, but it has been a fine thing
for Carnegie.-Journal of Industry.
