crowd thronged the streets near the

pecting that the marriage of Mis-:

place there. So dense was the GROVE
that the police had to be called OF

work of exploitation was temporarily
stopped, and more conservative meth.
DDS prevailed. Speculative madness
was toppled from its throne, and
calm reason took its place.
But not even the Vaccinations OF
political trust lackeys, nor the rapa-
cious greed Of financial pirates, can
long keep the American people from
their normal condition Of prosperity
The recuperative forces that lie in the
soil are too mighty to be more than
temporarily checked by the pluto
cratic buccaneer, who, with his pis-
tol of privilege takes the nation by
its throat and forces it to give up the
hard earned profits that rightfully be-
long to the people who have produced
them. Never again must this dis
tressing spectacle be enacted in our
country--forest, field, vineyard and
orchard cry out that such conditions
are wicked and unthinkable in the
face of the Creators overwhelming
bounty--the abundance that rolls
without stint from His all-loving hand.
There must be- no more panics in
this country, and the lesson of the
harvest which re-echoes from valley,
field, prairie and upland is, that pirat-
ical monopoly must be made to bow
its head as humbly as the lowliest of
our citizens in our temples of justice,
where law must no longer discrimi-
nate between rich and poor.
With monopoly checked and a sub
%stantial ring placed in the nose of the
hog of privilege, with political lack
eys driven from the legislative seats
in which they serve their trust mast
ers, and betray the people they have
sworn to serve, prosperity will never
again disappear from the land.
Prosperity is here, let us keep it
with us. God, by his bounty, and
we, by our energy and genius as a
people. have made it our birthright.
Let us do our duty politically and
commercially, and prosperity will
never again depart from our land.

formly. An ear Of good size, but not ex'
tremely large for the variety is best.
An ear should be compact in the ar.
rangement of the kernels. with straigh,
rows and with just as little lost space be-
tween the kernels as possible. The butt
of the ear of corn should be we'll rounded
out with kernels. evenly arranged around
a cup shaped cavity, about one inch a
cross in medium sized varieties. If the
butt is large, the ears will break off too
hard in husking. If the attachment to the
stalk is under a half inch in diameter,
the ears are apt, to blow of badly. Coarse,
irregular kernels at the butt, with spaces
between, are to be avoided.
The tip Of au ear of corn should be
we'll filled out evenly to the end of tire
cob, with deep regular kernels and if
possible healed over. Ordinarily how
ever, a perfectly covered tip. means a
short ear and if too much attention is
given to the covering Of the tips in select.
ing corn, there is a tendency to cause the
ear to grow too short.
The size of the cob and the depth Of
the kernel should be medium. Too large
a cob is wasteful, while a very small cob
is usually found in varieties of rather
small size. Such COBB usually bear deep
kernels and both the depth of kernel and
size of cob may be yer done. The cob
bears the same relation to the production
of corn, as does bone in the beef animal;
it may be too fine, OF too coarse. Very
deep kernels usually have poor germs;
they shell off badly and are apt to be
loose on the cob. A medium deep kernel
OH a medium sized cob seems to give bet.

The germof a kernel of corn should

When broken open, it should show a

The following method will appeal 10
every farmer as the easiest, quickest and
least expensive plan for storing all kinds
of fruit and vegetable, from a potato to a
pumpkin: Arrange the fruit or vegetables
in a long row, as high and as wide as
would seem advisable. Spread a little hay
over them, and set up fodder on each side
to the desired thickness say, three or
four feet. This affords excellent protec-
ton from ordinary cold; and i'll case OF
pumpkin, turnip or cabbage storage, or
any other article fed TO stock, you have
the means at hand with which to form a
most desirable balanced ration as you
feed out the orr aud fodder. This me.
