cORr CULTURE AEB BREEDING.
Address Of A. D. Shamel of the Illinois
Experiment Station-viSit Of the Corn
Special.

The "Seed Corn Special arrived at West.
minister at noon on the 7th instant, with Prof.
A. d. Shamel, of Illinois, Prof. w. I. l.. Tai
iaferro and Director Fl. j. Patterson, of the
MARYLAND Agricultural and Experiment Sta
ton, and was met by large body of intelll'
gent and practical farmers, who were much
pleased by the address and exhibitions of
Prof. A. D. Shamel, of the Illinois Expert
ment Station and the Seed Corn Breeders
Association. The object of the association is
for the purpose of furnishing wellbred seed
to the farmers and of preventing loss from
poor seed sent out by Inscriptions dealers.
So successful was the work that the Illinois
Legislature appropriated $4,000 year for
experimental work on lines laid down by the
Association. As result, il is claimed the corn
crop of Illinois was increased in valne ~ !.
500, 600 last year BY the higher average yield
brought about without extra fertilization and
solely by the cultivation of more productive
seed. Corn has been found as susceptible
of improvement by breeding as live stock, and
in experiments covering i've years experts
have been able to lengthen the shanks Of ears
two feet TO increase the height of stalks three
feet, to compel the corn to grow its ears high
or low, or to make the leaves of the plant wide
or narrow at will.
Lectures and displays were given at New
Windsor, Union Bridge and Bruceviile, ana
on through Frederick and Washington coun-
ties TO Big Pool. At each place the car was
cordially met by interested agriculturists and
land owners, and each lecturer was listened TO
with wrapt attention.
Through the kindness of Mr.. VIM. l..
Amoss, Superintendent Farmers Institutes
for this State, we are permitted to give the
lecture of Prof. Shamel, which We hope every
farmer will read carefully and adopt his sug.
gestions. Much money is expended by the
State for this purpose, and the only way TO be
benefited by this expenditure is to make a
practical test of the instructions given.

E DAYS, who died one year ago. April 10. 1901
Day by day we saw our dear mother fade,
And slowly sink away,
Yet In our hearts we often prayed
That she might longer stay.
on the misery of that dread morning,
When we stood around her bed.
Till death stole upon her softly,
And we knew her soul had fed
In the graveyard softly sleeping
Where the nowers gently wave,
Lies the one we loved so dearly,
In her lonely, silent grave
Farewell dear mother, may your sluuiber
Beas gentle as your love,
And when God will call us homeward,
May we meet in heaven above.
