CORN GROWERS NOTICE.
AN ARTICLE OF SPECIAL INTER.
EST AND PROFIT TO CORN
PRODUCERS.

All corn growers have no doubt been
greatly interested in the announcements
appearing In this and other papers, Of a

To no one perhaps, has the offer ap-
pealed more strongly than to Prof. p. G:
Holden. Of the Iowa State Agricultural
Prof Holden saw In this offer long
looked for opportunity. For years. Prof.
Holden has labored for the fame of Iowa

through his study of corn cultivation,
and seed selection. Realizing that the
real and unselfsh interest in improving
the standard of corn, negotiations were
entered into looking to certain modifica-
tons in the terms and awarding of the
The idea in Prof Holden's mind was
that he had devoted the best years of his
life TO inducing corn growers to improve
the standard of their corn. In this gener-
Gus offer he saw an opportunity to make
some further return to those who have
so faithfully aided him in spreading the
new and better corn gospel.
His negotiations with the donor OF the
81 000-looking to its distribution In what
seemed fairer and more eQuable man

sion, Prof. Holden Is In a position to
place the. generous offer before corn

The Life of Fishes.

do fishes grow old and wander
around in the ocean, decrepit In their
old age, as men do on the land? Well,
hardly so, / fancy" said the old fisher
man.
You see, men when they grow old
are cared for by their KIN. nourished
and protected from danger and life is
made easy for them, but it isn't so
among the fishes, where each one must
look out for itself
Fishes are cannibals, and every
fish from the time it first waves a fin
In the water Is in danger of being eat.
en- by some larger fish True, fishes Of
kind go in schools and so find some
protection, but the able bluefish, for
| instance, dashes into school Of men.
baden and bites and tears and kills
and eats, and SO it is of all larger
fishes toward smaller ones, they eat
them when they can.
$50 the fish is in this constant dan.
ger of being eaten by some fish larger
than itself, a danger that it avoids by
running away or by hiding from It's
enemies when 1t can. But as 1t grows
older and comes to what you might
call age, it grows less vigorous and
alert and is less able to look out for
itself, and then with no help from the
outside it is in greater danger. And
then it is more likely to fall prey to-
parasites or to disease and so live a
less time than 1t might have lived If it
was possible to have all the conditions
favorable.
I'VE do often get fishes that are
very large of their kind, fishes that we
take note of, but their great size does
not necessarily indicate great age.
When we see a giant among men we
don't conclude from that that he's an
old man, do we? No, it's just SO with
fishes.
There are giant fishes just as there
are giant men, and there are stunted
fishes and deformed fishes and all that,
but it doesn't follow because a fish is
very large of its kind that it's very
old
SO guess you won't find many fine
but feeble old patriarchs wandering
around in the sea. l guess there's no
old age among fishes as there is
among men. New York Sun.

Crows Stopped a Railroad Train.

The Journal des Debats says that
crows stood SO thickly on the main
line between Paris and Strasburg the
other day and such slaughter was
caused by a freight train blowing
through them that the train itself was
stopped and that a passenger train be-
hind was therefore held up for some
time. These birds, it seems, collect in
great numbers at this time of the year

Liverdun and Frouard, In the Meurthe-
