The Fall Harvests-Corn.

The Fall Harvests-Corn.
u IS a good rule to gather all crops as
quickly as possible after they are ready
Tor the house and barn. Corn that was
planted at the usual Ume in the spring
viii usually be dry enough FOR the crib in
i've and a half to six months from the
time OF planting the seed. or in i've weeks
after the fodder IS pulled II there is any
:hlng gained TO the advantage OF the crop
In any respect by posipcning the gathering
TO a later period We are not aware of Il:
aud We are quite sure that every day OF
unnecessary delay adds 20 the losses from
v-aryfls birds. '-varmiuts'' and bipeds.
There IS no security against loss except IN
she harm or corncrsb. We were once among
these who believed that corn should lie
g. sscly sI,p-shuckeI when gathered. but we
uev prefer o. remove al. or the greater
part u the shuck along w.Jh the ears.
In the southern part 81 our territory the
corn weevI IS probably che cause Of great
~ loss ami damage d the maturcd corn
theu all other causes put together. These
insects ,-erlmeace their rlyases before the
crop .s dry enough a. gather ana continue
t.ss-r destructive work as long as there Is
an ear - corn CD the crib. Successive
hrllsis are L4teaei uuf al along through
tE- winter, aud the succeeding spring and
