Prospectors Brought Home From
 Alaska By American Steamers.
 SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 8--The United States steamship Mohican and revenue cutter Corwn,i have arrived here from Behring sea. The Mohican lost two blades of her propeller and came in slow ly under sail and steam. The revenue cutter Bear is still in the north and will not arrive here before December.
 Each vessel brought down five stran- ded miners from the Yukon country. They belong to crowd of forty pros- pectors who were stranded at Forty. mile creek, where the richest placer diggings in Alaska have been found.
 Many of the prospectors were without food, and rather than supply food for them during the winter the trading company at Forty mile, which runs some small steamers on the Yukon, shipped forty of them down to the sea to be distributed among United States vessels about to sail for Puget Sound and San Francisco.

When to Cut the Corn Crop.

These conclusions are deduced by Az rfculturist Curtis, of the Iowa expert mental station: l. The stover of a crop of corn reaches the highest yield and the best condition for feeding at the stage of growth indicated by a well-dented kernel and the first dry ing of the blades. ?. The grain of a crop of corn reaches the highest yield and the best condition for utility at the stage of growth indicated by a well-ripcned. ear and a half-dried blade. The best time for securing the crop for both corn and stover would be at the stage of ripening between the above 3. The loss resulting from stover remaining in the field under or dinary stalk field conditions two months after ripening amounts to about one-half the dry matter and more than one half of the total feed ing value. 4. After the stover has reached the-best condition for cutting. there is rapid decline in both yield and feeding value.
