How to Plant Corn.

As editor of the FARMER, we are
supposed to know a thing or two
about agricultural matters. For
the benefit Of our readers We will
state our plan Of planting corn.
On the 18th of June we had our
field ploughed, aud fertilized with
barnyard manure, and planted with
seed corn obtained from one Of our
merchants. The next day it rained,
which was of course very favorable
for the termination of the seed.
After the lapse Of only three weeks,
that corn field is just As nice and
clean and level as the day it vas
planted, and there is not . Sign
of corn coming up anywhere. which
shows that it must have been plant
ed thoroughly and effectually.
Others may have tried our plan
with different results, but this only
shows that there are exceptions
to oil rules, which cannot be guard
ed against At all times.

There are only two ways that VIC
know Of to secure waterworks and
electric lights IN Covington. One
way is for > number Of tax payers
to petition the Town Council t.
order a special election. to see u
the taxpayers Of the town are wilt
ing to tax themselves for number
Of wears, and if the result is favor.
able, we could create > bonded
debt and build the works at once.
The other way is for some company
Of capitalists 10 build the works
and depend upon the number Of
patrons they receive to reimburse
them, with a reasonable profit.
We favor the former plan, for then
the works would belong to the
town.

All beef cattle breeders and growers
recognize that there is always a demand
for the best of beef cattle and that it is
the better ones, no matter which OF the
improved breeds, that bring the top price
at the great market centers Of our coun-
try. All intelligent and practical buyers
always assert that there Is lack Of ex-
ira good ones, hence the breeders Of i'm
proved cattle should endeavor to offer
more of them. Individually and alone
the professional breeder OF any beef
breed works against odds that experience
teaches can best be overcome by organ
jzation and more thorough dlssemina-
tlon Of the better methods practiced by
the older and more experienced persons
engaged in the business. Organization
ana united effort appears to be neces-
sary to success in all the other phases
Of the live stock industry-then why not
among the breeders of registered cattle?
Under this view of the question the
Missouri and Kansas Shorthorn breed
ers' Association was organized two years
ago. An increasing interest has been
manifested In both Missouri and Kansas
since the initial meeting, and at this time
the next meeting promises to be the most
successful one yet held. An excellent
program has been prepared which covers
