Governor Burlsigh seems to have made
no mistake in choosing Hon. benjamin i.
Chadbourne for railroad commissioner. The
office is not political one. aud it Is fitting
that the minority party in the State should
have representation on the board. Mr.
thadhourue is not only a representative
Democrat. but what is better. he is prac-
teal railroad man. He served in the en-
cineer corps of the Portland and nsdens-

of iron structures for Southern road and
of bridge work in Delaware New Jersey

! One of the VARYING methods among farm
ers in all the past has been the practice of
s.topping corn or removing the stalks
above the ears. about the middle of August.
, This practice has never been uniform one,
some good farmers always practicing IT.
other equally cool farmers never practising
| it The object, it has been claimed, is two
| fold; first. the saving of the stalks As tod
der in better condition than II left to re-
main till the crop matured or till frost came :;
second the producing of heavier yield OF
corn. In view of the want of uniformity
| in this particular, in handling the corn crop
the Cornell Experiment Station, New York.
has for the past two years been carrying on
experiments designed TO settle this point,
the results of which have just been
published in an interesting bulletin.
Experiments carried on in Illinois Maryland
and Nebraska to determine the correctness
of the practice, or its beneficial or other in
Auence upon the yield of corn, are also al
luled to in this bulletin. The general re
suits are stated as follows: There is
nothing absurd in the idea that the removal
of the tassel should increase the crop, PRO
! vied tassels enough remain to fertllize all
, the cars. Iii well known fact that the
development of the floral organs is great
strain upon the plant and the
strength which is saved by this process may
very naturally he directed toward the de-
velopmeut of ears. The results of the e1-
! pertinent at the Illinois station and the one
made at Cornell last year. prac-
ticalIy show no gain or loss
in corn production. The ones made at
the Maryland and Nebraska stations show
loss, while the Kansas experiment and ours
of 1870 show marked increase" Hence
it is probable that farmers will go on top
ping" and not ieppin2" as heretofore.

From the present time through the season
much can be done if attention is given at
the right time to make Young cions and new
grow,hs of all kinds hardy and well fortified
to go into the coming winter. Suckers de-
tract from the health of cious. and many
cions which incline to an orergrowth, which
is often the ease where the whole sap of a
large limb is thrown into a single cion as
large as ones finger, are much stronger at
the tip it cut back once or twice before cold
weather, and stand the winter much better
in consequence of this cutting back.
