A New Export from Norway.
There are two products which Nor
way has i'm Observation-Disclosures and
moss-but now for the first time has
either of them become an article of ex-
port. A thrifty merchant at Trondhjem
has this summer exported these prod
ucts to England to the value of about
10000, kroner. Heather is used in
Norway mainly as feed for animals and
moss is not used mich for anything.
But in England these products are
put to far more distinguished use.
The heather flowers are very pretty,
and some Of the Norwegian moss has
the most delicate green hue that an ar
tist ever dreamed of. This the Lon
don florists have found out, and they
use both the heather and The moss ex-
ported for decorative purposes. AS
Norway s supply is abundant, it only
depends on the demand to make it a
"big thing.' s....s. .~-.a-.,-s,,~9

Several other important reforms will

for subsistence property are to be made
semi annually instead of monthly, but
returns for subsistence stores will be
made monthly, as heretofore. Sub
sistence "property'' consists of
those articles Of office furniture,
etc., necessary for the transaction of
business; the d" stores'' are the food and
supplies issued to the troops. Proper

much paper work to account for the

H c OE CORN.

Botanically. there is but one species
Of corn, Zea Mays. but this one is d.
rided into six distinct groups or races.
each of which has many varieties, due
to culture in different climes. These
races have well-deflned, persistent
characters which admit Of specific
nomenclature. The six races are the
pop corns, flint corns. the dent corns.
the sweet corns, the soft corns and the
pod corns. which are thus described by
Plumb in his valuable work on Indian
Corn Culture"
Pop corn.-The substance Of the CEN
ter of the kernals is hard and tlinty
(corneous) all through, excepting at
the germ end, no white, soft starchy
substance being present.
Flint corn-The corneous matter sur
rounds the sides and top of the kernel.
so that 1t is enclosed in a hard, flinty
coat, with soft, starchy substance in
the central part. The kernel is usually
about as broad as long, n rounding
and smooth over the top. Flint corn
is somewhat smaller than dent. and is
best suited to New England n the
northern line of corn growing.
Dent corn.-The sides of the kernel
consist Of corneous matter with the
central part filled with a soft material.
, even to the denied or contracted
rough top. This contraction is due to
| shrinking Of the softer part of the kerr
mel in ripening. The kernel in many
varieties Is end or wedge-shaped.
Nearly all the corn in the great corn
belt Of the central west belongs to this
race.
Sweet corn.-The kernels consist of
translucent. horny material. which
7 contains considerable sugar (glucose)
instead of starch. The kernels in most
varities are quite wrinkled or twisted
and are distinctly wedge-shaped.
Soft corn.-EXcepting the germ, the
ertire kernel is starchy n soft In
character and has somewhat the form
of the tlints. This race is commonly
grown in s~ubtropical corn regions. as
the far southwest and in Mexico. This
is the early form of the corn as grown
by the Indians.
Pod corn.-Pod or husk corn is a
variety in which ach kernel is enclos-
ed in O. small husk, while the aggrega-
ton Of kernels, which may form a long
or short ear, Is enclosed in large eXter-
nal husks On a simple cob, as with
common ears. Flint n dent corn may
exist in this variety. Poo corr seed,
when planted, will usually give crop
of both podded and unpodded ears.
Each variety Of corn may be easily
classified with one of the so-called races
which were worked out by DR.. f. l..
Sturtevant, according to its seed. How
ever, If two or more races are grown
close together there will be ears COM
posed Of a mixture Of each class, es-
pecially If the flowers develop at the
same time.-DeWitt G. Wing.

Clowry Sees Chance for All.
Inc messenger boys in Western
Union uniforms can look to their chief
employer and find ample inspiration to
do their best. Colonel Clowry of his
career said:
Il can't say there was anything es-
peclally interesting in my career as a
messenger boy. / guess I vas in no
a different from the hundreds II
boys who are running messages in the
streets of the great cities today. There
always is a chance for the messenger
BOY to study telegraphy-a far better
chance now than there was when I
began-and there is always a chance
for him to rise
That an American messenger :.y
should come to hold the title of "s.;''
seems hardly probable, yet Sir William
Van Horn ran messages from a small.
earn his first dollar. This was in 1853.
Twenty-seven years later the directors
of the Canadian Pacific made him
president OF their system at a salary
OF 100000 a year. In the meantime
he had been telegraph operator. train
oiopdlCIlSi, superintendent, general
manager Of the Southern Minnesota
railroad. which he lifted out Of bank
ruptcy to prosperity, and president Of
the Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
railway.
Recently an interviewer ignorant of
the amer in which Van Horn got his
start suggested the idea that his early
experience in Illinois must have been
Of great help to hin when he came
to head the Canadian road.
NO" said Sir William, quizzically,
you see I was a little too old whe
l went to Canada to make use of my
early training-that of delivering tel
egrams."
But 1t is not only in the railroad and
telegraph companies offices that the
messenger who has climbed to the top
is to be found. In many business
houses in Raicago and among board Of
trade men the ex-messenger is to be
found in numbers. The boy of bright,
pleasing appearance in this work has
the advantage Of meeting the heads Of
many firms and thus sometimes strikes
the fancy Of some mar who will give
him a good position.
In the Chicago offices of the West
ern Union company it is a tradition
that every man holding an official po-
sition began as messenger. Two strik-
Ing examples Of these men who have
worked up are found in Assistant Su-
perintendents E. j. Lloyd and John
Fitzpatrick. Lloyd began work as a
messenger boy in Dubuque, Ia, at a
salary of IS a month longer ago than
he cares to admit. In the course Of
time he became al operator, and after
that hard work and perseverance
placed him in the position he now
holds. He is quite certain that the
messenger boy Of today can do the
same as he did.
1.-The company draws Its heads OF
departments from the ranks of Its op-
orators. who usually once were mes
sengers," said Mr.. Lloyd.
