PRlZE.WlNNlNG CORN.
How to Prepare Your Exhibit For the Corn
Show at Linneus, December z.

At the corn show to be held in Lin
neus December 2 under the auspices
of the Missouri Worlds Fair Commits
sion, it is important that the finest
specimens in the county be selected
and that they be in the best possible
condition. The best of this corn will
be taken to St. Louis to compete with
the world.
As already announced, prizes are
offered for the best corn, white, yell
low and mixed, and other prizes for
the best display of large ears, and still
another for the best display of long
ears. The best corn is not always the
largest, and selecting ears to compete
for these prizes it is important that
they should possess quality as we'll as
size. Above all, the entire exhibit
should be uniform, that is, all OF the
ears should be as nearly alike in size,
shape and color as possible.
Each individual ear should carry
its size throughout its length, that is,
be as large two inches from the tip as
it is two inches from the butt. Avoid
ears that taper sharply toward the tip
Every row should be straight and
regular and should continue the entire
length of the ear. The butts and tips
should be filled with deep grains that
are as nearly uniform in size and shape
as possible with the other grains OF
the ear. The ears should be as large
as possible, but it is not advisable to
sacrifice quality for size in the entry
for the best corn. In the show for
the largest ears quality will not count
for 50 much, but even there the prizes
will likely be awarded on the best
large ears, SO they should be we'll fill
ed, be uniform in size, shape and color
and should have length in proportion
to their diameter. This proportion
should be about as is to 3, that is,
an ear measuring IL inches in length
should be about 9 inches in circumfer.
ence, measured 8 inches from the
butt.
Handle the show corn with the ut
most care 80 as to avoid shelling OF
the grains. Do not put it in sack
Handle it in boxes and keep it in bini
or boxes that are mouse proof, ano
wrap each ear in paper before bring
ing it to the show. This will prevent
shattering and will preserve the brigh
fresh color and add materially to tn
attractiveness of the show.

Cannon Buried I25 Years.

A cannon OF the revolutionary war
has been discov cred buried on the
farm of Ephraim Kaufman, near
Warwick, Chester county. says a
Reading, Pa, correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun. The cannon weighs
1850 pounds anu is of cast iron. The
letters ''P w F." cut on it are taken
10 mean that it was made at the
Pennsylvania Warwick Furnace, which
operated during the revolution. The
furnace made cannon for Washing
tons army.
During the occupancy of Philadel
phia by the British under Lord Howe
1t was reported that Howe was about
to send an expedition out to destroy
the furnace, capture the cannon and
then come on to this city and seize
the provisions and supplies which
were kept here for the American army.
The people in charge of the furnace
were so certain that the expedition
would be made that they buried a
number of cannon to keep them from
falling into the hands of the enemy.
The place of burial was not marked
end in consequence the cannon re-
NAMED concealed until stream run
ming near the old furnace changed
its course slightly. The change ex-
posed one of the former banks of the
stream.
Recently two men were fishing in
the stream, when they noticed the tor
of what they supposed to be pipe
protruding from the former bank q
the creek. Upon examination they
found it to be the top of an old can
ron. 1t was then dug out, and foul
mules were required to draw tn,
heavy gun up the bank. The cannon
is greatly rusted, and is Of the typ,

Christ Was q Poor Man, Too

Things amt like they used t be in the
good OF days gone by,
When people lived within their means
an didn't sail SO high.
l want those days again to
come to me; don't you?
For I'm poor man, comrade, but
Christ was poor man, too.
1t didn't used to be this way, that
when man had gold
He'd walk on the necks OF poor folks
an they'd do what they were told,
For folks went on their merits then
the change it makes me blue,
For I'm a poor man, comrade, but
Christ was poor man, too.
Sometimes think of heaven that the
Good Book tells about,
An wonder if the rich rule there an
crowd the poor folks out.
A mans man, though poor he be;
l think that's right; don't you?
For I'm poor man, comrade, but
Christ was poor man, too.
The Saviour didn't have much wealth
but always did the square
An let the matter go at that; HI
didn't seem to care;
But times amt that way Gny more
t amt no disgrace to you
II you're poor man, comrade, for
Christ was a poor man, too.
S'posin' we don't sail quite SO high
a-joggin' along through life,
With poor folks lost in the whirl OF
wealth, splendor that's always rife!
When the great day comes an the
trumpet sounds the poor folks
who've been true
| Will stand in" with the Saviour, fos
He was poor man, too.
The troubles we have while were
down here will make it brighter
there,
So we'll get on the best we can jus
like the day. were fair.
We couldn't change things il we woul(
but let our lives be true,
And leave the rest to- the Saviour, TO-
