Kaflir corn is receiving much at
tentiOn just now. The seed and
fodder are very valuable as food for
stock, and it is claimed that this hardy
cereal can endure a dry season NJ uch
better than corn. In Kansas Kaffir
corn has been tested for six years,
the average yield of seed being 50
bushels per acre, as compared with 80
bushels for corn, while the average
weight of fodder was All tons for
Kaflir and 2.41 tons for corn per acre.
These results speak well for Kafiir
corn, and it ought to be given trial.

Those with nothing else to recon-
mend them to the respect of Others
but their blood, cry Il up at great
rate, and have their mouths per-
petually full of it. They swell and
yapor, and you are sure to hear OF
their families and relations every
third word. BY this mark they COM
monty distinguish themselves; you
may depend upon it there is no good
bottom, nothing of true worth of
their own, when they insist on 50
much and set their credit upon that

In his baccalaureate sermon at
Harvard Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott
said: I'VE hear the cry that murders,
divorces and all crime should be kept
from the papers. No! We want a
press that shall tell us the vices Of
mankind as well as the virtues. The
paper is a looking glass. We look in
it, and we see ourselves very dirty.
But we do not want to find fault with
the glass. We want to wash our
selves" The truth never hurt any
body. Itispossible to tell it, however,
without dwelling on disgusting de-
tails, and that is more and more
what the newspapers of this country
are doing and will do.

A good looking, well-to-do bachelor
of Griffin was being teased by the
young ladies of a club for not being
married. He said: "Ill marry the one
of you whom, on a secret vote, you
elect to be my wife" There were nine
mem bers of the club. Each girl went
into a corner and used great caution
in preparing her ballot and disguised
her handwriting. The result of the
vote was that there were nine votes
cast, each girl receiving one. The
man remains a bachelor, the club is
broken up, and the girls, MI mortal
enemies, united in the one determiDa-
tion that they will not speak to the
man again.-Atl anta Constitution.
