firms doing business in the state and
get a sample of two or three varieties
of corn. which they are seding out
over the state. When these samples
were received. the department III
charge took the three samples of each
variety and mixed them so as to get
a fair sample Of the corn being sold
to the farmers. Then these were
planted under exactly the same condi-
tons as the farmers varieties.
The average yield OF these samples
was 45 bushels per acre, against the
farmers average of good, bad and in
different, all thrown together, which
was 51k bushels per acre or an aver
age of 61s bushels per acre over that
sold by the seed firms.
The average Of the five highest
yields obtained by the corn sold by
seed firms was 81 bushels per acre;
against the FIVE highest furnished by
the farmers which was 62 bushels, or
a gain Of ten bushels per acre with a
cash value of $3.50 difference on every
forty acres planted.
Hence, while the pictures and print

Although Kinross held 1t to be an
old fogy notion that a girl should be
guarded from all knowledge Of evil,
yet he. had an instructive aversion to
pouring into the ears Of this childlike
maiden the story Of the crime which
Mrs Morningstar had related to him.

should he hesitate when she had
nerves steady enough to meet q ghost
and a will 80 firm that in all these

thirds as many acres. His labor
amounts to no more than that Of the
farmer having a full stand Of corn,
who bitches to his cultivator early in
the morning and drives up n down
the road till 80 o'clock, then goes into
his field and plows corn the balance
Of the day for the farmer with only
&C per cent of a stand Is driving fully
one-third Of his time, or three and one
half hours per day from the time he
begins to pillow the ground Gin the
spring or fall as the case may be),
till his corn Is laid by for absolutely
nothing, and one-third of his time and
labor is wasted so far as financial re-
turns are concerned, and not only his
time and the time of his horses, but
the good wife who cooks for him is
wasting one-third Of her time.
Another thing we wish to emphasize
in this experiment is the very great
importance of IN ven stand.
1t is a very common practice for a
farmer in counting his stand Of corn
to count off 400 hills then count the
number Of stalks in the hundred hills,
anu " StASSS oAo - ShS
in the hundred hills is three hundred,
they will say, "That gives me an av-
erage Of three stalks per hill and that's
all I want no matter If some Of the
hills are missing, and some have one
stalk and some of them two, / have
enough hills with four or five stalks
to make up for that and l have an av-
erage of three stalks per hill" But
this way of counting is almost a fail
ure, as shown by the above demonstra-
ton, for from n stalk per hill we re-
ceived 43 bushels per acre and by add
ing a second stalk we did not get
twice 40 or as bushels, but IS bushels
only a gain of % bushels and by add
ing a third stalk to the two we have
! only gained 10.5 bushels instead Of the
% bushels by u first addition; and
by adding the fourth stalk we only
gained 4.5 instead of the los bushels
by the third addition; and by adding
the fifth stalk we only gained 81
bushels. } So it is very misleading to
try to average the hill with one stalk
and the one with five and say we have
an average Of three, for while from
three stalks per hill we would receive
75A bushels per acre. OF is bushels
from two acres, on the other hand
from one acre Of one stalk and one
of five stalk we would only receive
1867 bushels, or 24.3 bushels less, yet
we would have the same number OF
stalks in both cases.. Hence, this em-
phasizes the great Importance Of get
ting the corn planted even, especially
~, +l,;~ coil for fhnr tho five cfo11<S
would fail worse than in this case.
All. in all, the experiment Of 1907
has been a great study by comparison.

a discovery, and he felt a pang Of dis
appointment as he realized the prob
ability of his having been mistaken.
''Those books on the top shelf, those
Balzacs," he suddenly said, they We're
the only books l found dusty. All, Of
course" he added, you don't read
French; that's it!'
Then perhaps, after all, she had
never seer this paper in his breast
Notwithstanding, indeed, If dur
ing all these years the secret of her
history should have thus been within
her reach and vet escaped her. A de-
sire came to him to take 1t out and
read it with her, but he thought better
of it.
"You know nothing really Of your
self-vour name, your origin, your life
before you We're left here with the
MorninGstars?
A p~ensive droop to her lips as she
shook her head was her answer. After
a moment she looked up at him, her
eyes almost solemn as she spoke.
"You say it is for my good that you
withhold for the time what you know
of this room. 1t is. then, as | have often
suspected, bound up in some way with
my lifeY
He hesitated an instant. LET us not
speak of it just yet, Eunlce."
Every WE'LL" she acquiesced gently.
II have so often wished" she added.
"that, If inanimate things can really
take Oh Impressions from the lives of
the people that use them and after
ward give out those impressions, this
place would speak to me of its his
tory!"
1t was not to be wondered at that
her ideas were thus fantastic, he
thought. The effect Of her desultory
reading upon one who lived a life as
isolated from the world as a nuns and
whose mind was left undiscfplined by
any other mental exercise was SO curl
GUS as to be almost phenomenal.
"But do you know how soon you can

"Probably the next time we a be

added as he saw her look of disap-
pointment, that I hold your welfare

good"
He was surprised at the glow which
irradiated her countenance at his
words. She was so unused to being
considered, he reflected. that a mere
tone of kindness called forth all the
latent brightness Of her soul. Little
did he dream how his words sang u
her ears, II hold your welfare sacred
and that the music Of the spheres
could not have seemed to her more
wonderful In spite of the fact that
since that night on the terrace her
heart had been heavy with the knowl-
edge that he loved Georgiana.

thrill In her voice that held him with

at perhaps much less cost
than they could from n seed firm IN
the state. The quality was also In
ferior to the farmers varieties, as the
average for soundness of the farmers
varieties was rs; against the seed
firms average of 81. This is no small
item, as these figures indicate the
number of pounds required for a
bushel. Also, the plots marked $50

soft and immature in some cases n
the worthless ears would outnumber
the market ears.
Another experiment was that OF the
