Points In Corn Growing.


The art OF raising corn Is summed
up in Indiana Farmer: The cut Of
corn plants in a row distance part is
shown for the purpose of impressing
the reader with the Importance Of bet
ter methods Of cultivation than those
formerly pursued; in other words, to
show the necessity Of shallow level
cultivation after the corn plant Is a
few feet high.
This country has the only produc-
tive and profitable corn belt in the
world. The demand and increasing
price Of corn in the last five years
have raised the annual production to
about 2,OOOOOO,O0O bushels, and yet
the average per acre for the whole
country is only 242 bushels. It is
rather remarkable fact that on the
poor soils Of New England the aver
age production per acre is largest.
This is doubtless due to the fact that
better fertilization, cultivation and
seed selection is practiced there. It
Is very we'll known that there is great
advantage in seed selection. Many
instances of this have shown that on
the same quality of soils fifteen bush
els per acre have been produced, more
than where the work of selecting seed
was neglected. Again, it has been
shown that corn growing on lands the
previous year i'll leguminous crops has
greatly increased in production.
The best corn growers now begin
cultivation with weeders or harrows
before, or by the time, the corn be-
gins to appear above the ground, this
both for the purpose Of destroying the
terminating weeds as we'll as to put
the soil in better condition for corn
growth. It Is always important that
the ground be stirred after rains
where crust forms and starts rapid
evaporation of the moisture. It Is
we'll settled now that a good dust
mulch Of two or three inches depth
Is one of the things necessary in corn
cultivation.
Formerly deep cultivation was prac-
t1ced, but It Is now seen that this was
or four feet high the ground begins to
mat with the fine fibrous roots which
extend from row to row, as shown in
the cut. When six to eight feet high
these fine root feeders Of the plant
have made a complete mat between
the rows. In deep cultivation, reach
ing down to five or six inches, these

Murder That Occurred 81 Years

SHERIFF GETS MESSAGE.

Dowd Of Ashland, Doyle committed

Unknown Body Found.
September 16, 1883, an unknown man
was found ground to pieces short dis
tance from a resort in Ashland, q freight
train having run over the body. When
the body was picked up it was noticed
that it was cold, but no inquest was held
and the dead mans name was never as
certained A few years afterward the
police received a letter from Il woman in
Texas, stating that she was cognizant Of
the murder, and that the unknown, whose
body was found on the track. had been
killed by q blow on the head by the
woman keeper of the house, and to con-
ceal the crime the body was placed on the
track.
The proprietress of the house was dead
when the letter was received, and nothing
more was done. The telegram from Still

the case than has been known.
