GROWING corn AFrER CORN.

In all Eastern corn grow ing the
usual rotation never allows two corn

several years Intervening The corn
Is always planted on clover or grass
sod, aud after it some small grain fol
lows Tor one or perhaps two years
when the field is again seeded, and
after two or more years the corn comes
IN rotation again. SO if corn smut APP
pears IN one crop it has no chnuc, to
propagate except what is blown into
adjoining fields, or is carried to the

manure pile. In the West the grow
ing OF corn after corn on the same land
was continued 80 long fhat the fields
were filled with smut aud the land
had to he seeded down so ns to allow
the smut spores to die ont. Growing
corn after corn also develops the bur
rowing worm, which is Matched in the
tips Of ears while tender. aud eats lis
way into the corn while in it's 8uccu-
lent stage. This worm has sometimes
appeared in Eastern States where n
great deal of corn is grown. 1t is pro-
badly true that no crop can he cXclu-

Two crops of corn will not exhaust thc

together. The corn stubble is neces-
snrlly left naked during the following
winter, and is therefore subjected to
more freezing and thawimg and more
washing away of the soil thnn if the

occupied by swiftly-moying mass of
figures, individually picturesque, bril-
liant with metallic reflections and CAV
with colors, momentarily springing and
flashing into new combinations and
modes of motion which dazzle, confuse
and fascinate the eye of the beholder.
Such is the spectacle presented by the
hundreds of trough riders" forming
part of the "WiId West exhibition,
when going through their evolutions to-
gether. All the rest of the attractions
are highly interesting and remarkable;
the craftsmanship of Buffalo Bill, Annie
Oakley, Johnnie Baker and others; the
marvellous acrobatic feats of the genuine
Arabs; the Custer Battle; the artillery
drill and driving; the Virginia Reel on
Horseback; the races between riders of
different nationalties and Arabian and
native horses; the buffalo hunt; the
bucking broncos; the Indian songs and
dances; the combats between the scouts,
cowboys and red men, and much more
that need not be recapitulated; but,
after all, the feature which arouses the
enthusiasm of the spectators is the tenn
porary Centaur, the horseman combina-
ton seen in each of those rough riders
when in action. Such horses and such
men, as the New York Sun graphically
puts it, stir the blood as no other spectacle
could, short of a battle, shipwreck, or
an earthquake.

Events in the Life of SIorristown's Most
Venerable Citizen.

Events In the Life of 1Iorristown's Most
Venerable Citizen.
High on the CHRONICLES honor list
stands the name of Preston Gallon, of IS
Spring street, who on March 4th last
passed the ninety-ninth anniversary of
his birthday. He was born slave on
the plantation of Paul Calvin, at Lynch
burg, Va, about one hundred and fifty
miles northwest of Richmond, March 4,
1893. Nineteen years after he was sold
and taken to New Orleans, where he
lived until the outbreak of the war,
vixen his master, Duncan Linton, gave
up all his slaves. He enlisted under
General Buffers call for colored soldiers
and served till the close of the war, par
ticipating under General Banks in the
fight at Port Hudson and many other
engagements. where he saw some hot
fighting, had his trousers leg shot off,
but was never wounded. In 1865 he Sc
cured a place as ships cook on a vessel
belonging to Mr.. Vanderbilt and came to
New York, his wife accompanying and
serving as cabin maid. When the vessel
arrived in New York the captain ran
away without paying the crew. and after
casting about the city for few weeks,
without money or friends, Mr.. and Mrs.
Gallon secured work at Morris Plains,
and later at Morristown, where he has
worked for many years, winning the
name of an honest citizen and faithful
worker. He was converted twenty-nine
years ago and reports that the Christian
religion makes him more happy every
day. He is a member of the present
Board of Trustees of the African Metho-
dist Church of this city. Save tender
ness in his feet, as result of the long
marches of the war, he appears as well
as anybody and in fine spirits, and may
be seen giving word of counsel or rem
iniscence TO the younger mind along cur
streets almost any day. He receives a
small pension allowance from the gov
eminent, now his only means of support.
Mrs. Gallon died twelve years ago,
aged 50.
