Unusual Fatality.

Arthur Proehl. the nine-year-oid son
of Mrs. Elizabeth Proehl, who resides
with her father, Henry Beneke, in
Rich Valley, near Glencoe, was killed
in a peculiar manner.
The little fellow went to the hem
house to gather some eggs, and had to
climb up to reach the upper tier of the
nests.
His weight on the tier pulled it over
and it fell, carrying the boy with it.,
pinning him down on the floor in the
corner of the coop in such a manner
that his mouth aud nose were forced
into the hollow of his left arm, which
had become doubled under his face as
he fell.
The weight of the box was so great
that the boy was una BILE to move it and
he was suffocated, being dead when
found ten minutes later by his uncle,
John Beneke.

SEED CORN.

There are many ways or selecting
seed corn, the poorest being that of
going to the crib when planting time
comes and trying TO pick out the seed.
Where one does not need over FIVE or
six bushels of seed the best way we
have found is to take sack and go
through the field in September after
the corn is well hardened, selecting the
best ears. 1t is worth something to
know what kind of a stalk the corn
grew on. to note its time Of maturity
and to partially judge Of Its produc-
tiveness. Seed corn so selected. tied
by the husks two and two. hung In a
dry shed to ripen fully and then put in
some dry loft or even cellar where
frost will not touch it is pretty sure to
have every kernel grow the next
spring Some men select the seed
when husking and keep it in an oat bin
or else in some chamber in the house,
which last always makes the women
grouty. the spare room in the average
house always being wanted by the
good wife to store things in which are
too good to burn up or give away and
still not worth house room. One friend
Of ours always let's his wife select the

THE SOUTH AND THE CORN CROP.

We are asked why the south does not
raise the corn which it needs, but so
largely depends upon the north for
supply. There are several reasons.
South of line drawn through central
Missouri, Notwithstanding there are to
be found abundant heat and moisture.
corn does not do as we'll as in southern
Minnesota and South Dakota. The
plant grows tall-very tall, ten to fif-
teen feet high-but when it comes to
making ears the five foot corn of the
north country beats it all to pieces.
The average crop Of corn in the south
ern states is but little over one-third
that of the northern states. Another
thing-because Of the excessive heat
and humidity of the south country 1t is
extremely difficult to keep the corn
from spelling after it is raised, while
the principal reason is that the land
put into cotton instead Of corn will
bring in twice as much return.

This is the unnatural thing to do. By
every effort nature always strives to
secure reproduction only from the very
best. She smothers and starves out

in the animal world sets the males to
fighting for supremacy, so that only
the victors become the progenitors of
the race. When man arbitrarily inter-
feres with these processes and breeds
from the poorest the tendency to dete-
rioration becomes most fearfully mark
ed and aggressive.
