Mr.. Durose, living on the Nor

a letter from England few days
ago which was not registered and
but partially sealed. The letter

four one dollar bills. The safe az

the strict integrity of Democratic
postmasters, or their stupidity in
not finding the money.
The church-going people held a
sociable at the school house,
Wednesday evening, to raise
money for our local minister.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

At varied intervals some fellow
hobs up to attack the modern ten
dency of social organizations. The
Masons, Odd Fellows and knights
of Pythias collectively or in turn
have been assailed. Just why the
latter day organizations should
fall within the realm of displeas-
ure on the part of these croakers is
more than the average mind can
fathom. The oldest secret organ
ization was started back IN the ages
OF superstition, bigotry and intol-
erance, and it's course of enlight-
eminent, and opportunities for dis
enthrallment from the tyranny and
prejudice of those days aroused
bitter opposition from certain
quarters, that has followed it down
to the present time. The younger
societies, started in comparative
recent years, alta time when men
were supposed to be- beyond the
dogmatical narrow mindedness of
! the Ignorant past, why they should
be objects of attack is conun-
drum. All, as far as their works
extend, lift up the fallen, attend
the sick, bury their dead, anchor
ate the suferings of the living,
and strengthen bonds of friendship
beyond anything else on the face
of the earth. Not one of the great
societies is organized on a basis
that it will support subversion
of the country's laws. Not day
passes that some kind act, even in
this narrow sphere, is not bestowed,
prompted BY the teachings Of the
various secret societies Of this
place. Every secret order in this
place has done acts of kindness to
its members that will do more in
support of its worthiness and it's
benefcence among people than all
the force of sophistry could tear
down in a century, If the orders
were to close doors and leave So
ciety to the retrograding influence
Of those who have through their
despicable modes of life failed to
pass the portals Of the lodges.

Board Of e ducatiOn.

At a regular session Of the
school board Monday evening,
considerable business was trans
acted. The following teachers
were elected for the year: Prin-
cipal, G. R. Simpson; assistant
principal, Mary O. Glidden; pre-
paratory department, not supplied;
grammar room, Helen McDiarmid;
intermediate, Lizzie Sadley; Sec
ond primary, Mable Blooming
dale; first primary, Mary S. Huse.
The increased amount of work in
the lower grades has caused the
board to retain Miss F. Estes as
teacher, who will occupy one of
the rooms in the old school house.
It is more than likely school will
also be opened next fall at Longs
Siding. That IS part of this dis
trict, with quite Il number of pu-
pills who find it too far to attend
conveniently in the village. It is
a just consideration on the part of
the board to give those people an
easy opportunity to send their
children to school. Arranged un-
der control of the village system,
they will have superior advantages.
It is an eminently proper move
ment, and the people of that seq
ton have reasons to congratulate
themselves, should the board de-
eide that conditions warrant such
action, which is more than proba-
bic. -

CORN GROWING.
Metn0ds of Cultivating Corn as
Practiced at the Univer-
Sity Farm.

Corn planting is practically over
lnRFhnls part Of the State, and the
advent of warm weather will soon
develop the growth, so as to de-
msnd the attention of the harrow
and the cultivator. A few Of the
Methods eds and experiments en-
plfoyed at the State agricultural
school, may not, at this time, be
amiss. AS soon as the corn is up,
it should be dragged, every few
days, with slanting tooth harrow,
until five or six inches high. To al
low for the harrow taking out few
plants in going over several times,
phnt something like one-tenth
more seed than is sufficient to
make plants as thick as desired.
| When the harrow must be laid
ASIDE, cultivate medium shallow,

irFhes deep next to the TOW, and
thee inches deep in the middle
beWeen the rows, working a little
Dirt toward the corn each time.
Three or five times over with the
cultlvators is all that is needed af-
te, the narrowing. Use care not
toseriously prune the roots. In a
number of experiments, in plow-
inlgto close and pruning the roots,
seFeral bushels less to the acre
was the result. Then follows an
aricle on the selection of seed
con, that has produced most
satisfactory results: ''Procure first
a Kind of seed corn that yields we'll,
ortry several promising kinds and
seect the best. Plant in rich soil
thirty or more rods from other
corn. When the tassels begin to
form, destroy all of them on weak
plants, or those promising only
snail ears, by pulling the tassels
out, before they have scattered
pollen: When nearly ripe, go
through with a basket and select
only the choicest ears from the
choicest stalks. Always pick your
seed from standing corn paying at
tention to size and the maturity.
In doing this, you will obtain nice
uniform ears and stalks. Fire
dry the seed and place it where it
will keep perfectly dry till plant
ing time" Remember, if you
want pure seed, plant your seed
corn patch, not less than thirty
rods from all other fields of corn,
otherwise it will mix more or less
and the true type is lost.
