how Much WIN Corn shrink,

In the fall of '9s an experiment was
undertaken by Prof. Atkinson at the
Iowa experiment station to ascertain
the amount of moisture contained in
ear corn. A crib was constructed upon
the platform of pair OF scales, the
scales so constructed that an exact reg
lister of the welghtcould always be made.
Seven thousand pounds of corn were
husked and placed in the crib October
10, 1898. The crib was thirteen and one
half feet long by seven and one. half feet
vide. The corn was then weighed once
each week for year. During the frs,
three months the loss Was $50 pounds or
8 per cent. of the original weight. Dur
ing the next three months, from Janus
AIRY 10 to April 10, the loss was 800
pounds, or two per cent. OF the original
weight. During the next three months
the loss was 22O pounds; during the last
three months the loss-was 100 pounds.
The loss during the full year was
l,43O pounds, or trife more than
20 per cent This means that a
bu ,hel Of corn weighing eighty pounds
when husked like this sample will weigh
sixty.four pounds at the end of the
year.

acts OF congress OF 1868 and 1864, in
which the provisions of these acts dis
qualifying unstamped papers as evil
dence were ignored. An examination
of the stamp acts of 1868 and 1864 shows
quite difference in this respect from
the act of June l3, 1898. In the former
acts the objection to unstamped paper
as evidence was subject to the qualif
cation THAT the omission of the stamp
was with the intention to defraud the
revenue" Carson VS.. Phelps, 10 Md,
96). 1t might also be added that at the
time these decisions were made the
paramount authority of the Constitu.
ton OF the United States and the laws
made in pursuance thereof was not
clearly determined or admitted. Thirty
years have passed since these decisions
were made, and with the present state
OF the law on this subject, as adjudged
by both federal and state courts, it is
not likely that the power of congress to
legislate on this subject would now be
questioned in any court.
No question was made at the hearing
as to the right of the purchaser to in
ervene and seek RECESSION of the sale
nor do understand that her right to
do SO is denied. court of equity will
not compel a purchaser to take a title
which is not free from reasonable doubt
and might in reasonable probability
expose him to the hazard of litigation.

For two reasons above stated, the ex-
ceptions of the purchaser to the rati-
lication of the sale will be sustained
and will sign an order to this effect.
