Raising Seed Corn.

Raising Seed Corn.
The best way of raising corn for
seed, as followed in the West, says c.
w. Morrill, in Tri-State Farmer, is to
prepare a seed bed or testing ground
Of from one to two acres far removed
from other fields. To begin with, no
ear should be used which Is imperfect
from which to select grains for the
seed crop, selecting such type Of corn
that you wish to grow, the work Of
selection should be followed year after
year, selecting the best ears that show
an improvement over previous years.
Any plant that Is deficient In any re-
quirement should net be allowed to de-
veloP a tassel, and especially a barren
stalk.
As to corn feeding, the seed plots
should not suffer for want of plant
food. From field experiments with fer
tilizers on corn In the West last year.
on soils Of average fertility, higher
per cent Of potash than ordinary fer
til.zer contains gave remarkable re-
suits and would undoubtedly give SIM
liar results on the average lands Of
Georgia. In Georgia last year were
used more fertilizers with corn than
was ever used in years before, and with
proper fertilizers and more attention
to the selection Of seed, and intensive
culture, there is 40 doubt or reason
why the average yield Of well-bred corn
should not be increased In the South,
and especially Georgia.

The following from Orange Judd
Farmer shows what profits some men
undertake to make farming:
Ten acres of farm land in Christian
County, Illinois, sold for 5000 a few
days ago. or $500 an acre. True, the
land lies just outside the city limits
Of the county seat, but 1t Is not to be
cut into city lots. 1t will be used for
raising fruit and vegetables. In other
words, the purchaser, w. o. Simpson.
expects to make the interest on his
$500 land. and considerable profit be-
sides.
This shows what careful. Intelligent
farming and gardening will do. If Mr..
Simpson can make money on his high
priced land. need his neighbors on
farms equally productive feel discour.

tice intensive agriculture. There Is

CHINESE SEVEN AGES.
Unknown Philosopher Pictures the
Course of the Life of Man.

A French officer, Louis de Chantilly,
tells in Paris Gil Bias of his discovery
in a Buddhist convent in the noun
tains of Tonkin of a dusty manuscript
containing the Chinese version of the
seven ages of man.
''At ten years DID," says the writer,
whose name has long been forgotten,
'the boy has heart and a brain as
soft as the tende.. shoots of a young
bamboo. At twenty he is Ike a green
banana; he is just beginning to ripen
in warm rays of cc''mon sense.
Thirty years secs him developed in
to a buffalo. He is strong and lusty,
full of bodily and mental y.ror. This
is the true age CT love; il is the age
for him to marry at.
"At forty years the prosperous man
has grown to De a mandarin and wears
a coral button. But it would be truly
indiscreet to confide to him at this
early age any functions calling for jul
dicial intelligence or calm.
when he reaches fifty years, how
ever, although he has grown stout and
fleshy, he is fit to hold any municipal
or state office; he can administer a
city or province or perform any Off
cial duty.
But at sixty years he is old. Handi-
craft and all active bodily activities
are beyond him. He gives his depend
ents and clients advice. That is all he
is fit for.
''At seventy he is just a dry rice
straw He has only one care; to hus-
band the breath of life that is left to
him, to preserve it. even by artificial
means. His sons must sslme the
care of his estate and the performance
of his duties"

EAT WHAT you WANT
Science Has Now Found the True
Way to Cure Indigestion.

A few years ago, when a sufferer from
indigestion went to a stomach special
ist, the result was rigid diet list that
almost maant starvation.
But the first thing to do in the case
of indigestion or stomach weakness is
to strengthen the muscular walls of
the stomach and intestires, so that
they will care for the food that is eaten.
In no other way can this be done as
we'll as by taking Mi-o-na tablet be-
fore each meal. This restores strength
to the stomach muscles and stimulates
the pouring out of gastric juices, so
that the food is digested readily and
its nourishment retained in the system
to build up energy and vitality.
Do not think the sick headache,
heartburn, bad taste in the mouth,
coated tongue, spots before the eyes,
sleeplessness and the many other
symptoms that are the direct result of
indigestion, will 60 away of them
elves. The stomach must be built up
and strengthened by Mi-o-na before
you can be we'll and strong, free from
suffering and distress.
The guarantee that Hanson & Emel
son give with every 50-cent box OF
Mi-o-na, to refund the money unless
the remedy cures, shows their con-
tidence in the treatment.

COINS AND FACES ON THEM.
Features of Rulers Abroad, Here the
Emblem of Liberty,

Coins of most of the nations bear
In the United States each coin has
an emblem of liberty.
The first coins struck after the for
nation of the federal unino bore the
face of George Washington. General
Washington disapproved OF the GUS
tom, and it was dropped. 1t has new.
er been revived.
Portraits of prominent Americans
appear upon postage stamps, internal
revenue stamps and paper money, but
never on coins. And it has been the
custom to use no portraits of living
men even on the currency and the
stamps
In England as soon as King Ed
ward succeeded Queen Victoria the
queens face gave way to that Of Ed
ward on all the coins and stamps in
the British empire. The accession of
new ruler III most mOnarchieS
means an instant change in the de-
signs of the coins.
But there is an exception to the
rule of no portraits on American coins.
The emblem OF Liberty on the 1-cent
coin is the goddess in an American
Indian headdreSs, but the face shows
no characteristics of the North Ameri-
can aborigine.
1t is the face of little girl, Sarah
LOngacre Keen. upon whose head was
placed the feathered ornament of
Sioux Indian. Her father was an en-
graver, and he placed his daughters
head OH the coin.
Sarah Longacre Keen died in Phila-
delphia not long after having served
thirty-fiye years as the secretary Of
her city's branch of the Methodist
Women's Foreign Missionary society.

RARSE..'S CHARITY.

of 1t.
General Booth, the head of the Sal
vation Army, was discussing in New
York the anti-suicide bureaus that his
church has opened.
Kindness and charity he said,
"are factors of those bureaus. The
charity will be of the right kind. l
trust There are, you know, two
kinds of charity, and too much OF 1t
is like the barber's.
There was a poor deacon in War
wick who had no money and needed
to be shaved, and he went from barber
to barber, but none OF them. despite
his holy Office, was willing to shave
him for nothing.
I'm the end, though, he found bar
ber who, on hearing his tale, said gruff-
ly:
"'Sit down there in that chair.
"And this barber shaved him. But
the razor he used! Dear me, its dull
edge, and the hicks in it! Under the
operation the tears flowed in riyulets
down the poor deacon's cheeks.
Suddenly the BARRIERS dog in the
adjoining room set up terrific howl
ing.
"Be still there cried the barber.
And he muttered anxiously: What
can they be doing to him?
".Alas," said the deacon, I shouldn I
wonder if some one was shaving him
out Of charity.

water without burning it, was rather

FREAK EGGS.
One That Weighed Five Ounees-
Another Undisturbed for 300 Years.

Another Undisturbed for 300 Years.
The stories told by poultry keepers
in regard to the laying of eggs are in
danger of becoming viewed by the
public in the same suspicious light as
the tall yarns of fishermen.
1t is announced that an egg laid by
hen belonging to a coastguards
officer at Bridgeport measured rs
inches by 6A inches, while another
of similar size picked up in a farm
yard at Fenny Stratford was, on being
opened, found to contain a perfectly
formed second egg. The record
monster chickens egg is believed to
be one of 81 inches by inches and
weighing 5 ounces.
The most freakish eggs are attrib-
uted to ducks. The Western Park
Museum, Sheffield, has a ducks egg
which contains another smaller one
inside, and still greater curiosity in
twin egg, the two being joined to-
gether end to end.
In a museum at Paris a curious four
footed goose lays an egg which is in
yariably misshapen and the shell Of
which is so brittle that it breaks if
touched All efforts to preserve these
eggs have been futile.
An egg apparently in a state of per-
feet preservation is reported to have
been discovered embedded in the
mortar Of an ancient church near
Paris. AS the wall had been standing
for fully 500 years the eggs must have
been undisturbed for all that long

WHERE GRAMPUs is PLENTY.
Mammal Abundant on Alaskan Shore
and River Mouths,

This mammal, commonly known as
the beluga in Alaska, is quite abundan
in the summer along the Alaskan
coast north of the Aleutian chain, be-
ing particularly numerous about the
mouths of the rivers and frequently
ascending the larger streams far
above tidewater. 1t is migratory and
ice.
The numerous tidal creeks along the
low fiat coast from st. Michael to the
kuskOquim river, in which tomcod are
abundant, are the chief resorts of the
beluga, which comes in to feed on the
fish. The Eskimos catch them with
strong, large nets, heavily weighted,
set Off outlying points.
In rough weather, when the animals
can not see the nets, many are taken,
but in clear weather the catch is small.
Some are speared, some shot, but I'M
less the shot goes through the spinal
column these generally escape. The
flesh of young beluga is tender and
not unpalatable, but is rather coarse
and dry. The fat, or blubber, is clear
and white and is highly valued by the
natives, who extract oil from it and
use it in barter with the interior tribes.
The intestines are made into water
proof garments or floats and the
sinews are very much priced The
small ivory teeth are carved into toys
or ornamented pendants, while the
skin is made into strong lines or very
durable boot soles. The epidermis,
which is nearly half an inch thick,
when we'll cooked is considered choice
eating, having a flavor somewhat re-
sembling chestnuts.
