MONEY IN CORN STALKS.

A new use for cornsislks has been
discovered, which, II is claimed, will
make that product valuable source
of revenue to the farmer In the t4ure'
Scientific experts have discovered
that the pith of coruslsIks makes the
most valuable material for protecting
the sides of ships from iurushing
water, and IL is proposed to erect
mills for the manufacture Of the pin
in the form most convenient for this
purpose. II the protection of battle
ships by the corn stalk lining is put In
to general use, It will require the en-
tire crop Of the country to meet tho
demand: and instead Of being a mere
waste and encumbrsuce Of farms, he
stalks will readily be sgleaDIe at a
a good price. Tue discovery, If prae-
tically utilized, viii double The value
Of the corn crop of the country
Already plans have been completed
for the erection Of factory al Rock
ford, Illinois, where the material will
be converted luto padding Tor ships,
aud large amount of capital ID to be
Invested in thoroughly testing the
utility of the new invention In re.
calling the history of cotton seed, aud
the numerous useful articles now OBJ
tanned from this once despised pro-
duet, the possibilities Of the corn stalk
are not to be scorued. Not many
wears ago the value ofcotton seed, ex-
cept as a fertilizer, was unsupported
They were suffered to accumulate IN
great heaps about the gins until they
became a nuisance, aud the problem
of getting nd of them was often q
serious annoyance. Tho discovery OF
the virtues of cotton seed has created
all industry second only to the pre-
duction of cotton itself; and It "a
quite possible that a similar exper-
teuce awaits the grower of corn, the
surplus product of which is now be-
ing burned for fuel, while the stalks
are utilized only as a very inferior
fodder or as bedding in cattle yards
and hog pens.

Advantages OF the South.

There is no doubt but chat the South
is now in better financial condition
than the North, The climatic coudi-
tons, the needs of the people, lower
values, cheaper rents, freedom from
speculation and other causes, are re-
sponable tor this, and The Southern
people are to be congratulated that 1t
is so. A great many people would
come here if they could get here
From q letter written to this paper by
h, Hiersche, of Lake View, Iowa, who
has visited here several times, we take
this extract;
"People here are looking with long
lug eyes toward the South, where
they may have a home at little ex-
pense aud be happy, but the hard
times and scarcity of money keep them
here, simply because they cannot
convert their holdings into cash
Some of tho renters lost everything
and cannot get away if they wanted
to, but | hope a change VIII come be-
fore long"
That section produced an enormous
crop, but prices have b0eu so low that
farmers who paid from So to S. all
acre cash rent could not pay thclI
landlords, let alone having anything
