Export of American Corn.


Newton B. Ashby, United States con-
sui at Dublin. Ireland. some time ago
sent to the State Department in
Washington. for the consideration Of
the Department of Agriculture. some
data and suggestions relating to the
use of American maize, or Indian corn,
In foreign countries. MIR. Ashby said:
THE difficulties in the way of the
American maize are twofold; in the
first place, maizeS or Indian corn, is
not as widely rsed by Europeans for
feeding purposes as its value In the
feed ration, considered in reference to
comparative cost, merits. In the sec
ond place, our maize comes in COM
petition with Danubian and Black Sea
maize"
The st. Louis Globe-Democrat adds:
Figures were presented showing that
In 1894 the port OF Dublin received by
direct import nearly 2,U00.000 hun
dredweight OF maize, of which only 6h
per cent was from the United States.
although the maize from the Ameri-
can corn belt is generally acknowledge
ed to be OF better feeding value. pound
for pound, than the Asiatic and Eur
opean varieties. MIR. Ashby suggested
that the difficulties OF competition
might be overcome by American mill
ers In large degree ny preparing for
foreign export a ration composed OF a
mixture OF maize. oats, oli-cake and
wheat. The British and Irish farmers.
feeders and dairymen are more famil-
lar with feeding stuffs in the form Of
cakes than by any other method.

A correspondent of Agricultural Ad-

THE state experiment stations are

ments is doing as much good a. one
well-conducted agricultural journal, the
expense Of which ofttimes is carried
by one individual. The papers are at

mill. while an agricultural college re-
ceives great praise for getting out four
measley little bulletins year. and
some of these are 30 technical as to be
utterly useless to the ordinary reader"

Result of the Official Canvass Of

The Supervisors had a dull session
yesterday. w NJ. Sims appeared be-

the board should allow them something
for it,
Supervisor Curtis said the work was
done without any order therefor. but it
was good work and deserves compen-
sation.
No demand had been filed for the
work, which is worth about $40, but
on motion of Supervisor Curtis they
were allowed to file a demand in the
regular way for about one-half the
value of the work.
