A Big Shortage in Seeds.

From almost all sections comes the re-
port of frightful shortages in seed corns;
also in some varieties OF seed barley,
oats, rye, wheat, flax, clovers and the
early varieties OF potatoes.
This is particularly noticeable in the
great corn and oat and potato growing
states.
Thus: The great states of Nebraska and
Iowa are suffering from a dearth of seed
corn as never before.
The wide-awake farmers in these and
other states are placing their orders early
for above seeds in order TO be on the safe
side, and we can but urge farmers to
write at once to the John a. SalZer Seed
Co. Box 1872, La Crosse, Wis, for their
farm seed and corn catalogue.
The magnitude of the business Of this
long established firm can be somewhat
estimated when one knows that in ordi-
harry years they sell:
90, 900 bushels of elegant seed corn.
100, 900 bushels of seed potatoes.
100, 600 bushels of seed oats.
sc, 900 bushels OF seed wheat.
100, 900 bushels of pure clover and timo-
thy seeds, together with an endless
amount of other farm seeds and vege-
table seeds, such as onions, cabbages, car
rots. peas, beans, lettuce, radishes, toma-
toes. etc.
There is one thing about the Salzer firm
they never disappoint. They always fill
your order on account of the enormous
stocks they carry.
Send them cents for a package OF their
great $500 prize Corn and Catalogue. Ad-

Professor Fisher found III his ex.

Gladstone's power of memory was
always one of his greatest assets. In
his last years he often lamented that
1t was not what it had been; but even
so, it came triumphantly out of some
remarkable tests. In his eighty-third
year he set himself TO recall Manzonrs
ode on the death of Napoleon, which
as a young man, he had translated
into English. He had entirely forgot
ten his own version, but by dint of
hard digging" or Fishing up" as he
called it, he wrote down 104 of the
1OS Italian lines. Two years later he
essayed to write from memory a com
plete list of all the men who had been
his cabinet colleagues, and enumer
ated 60 of the 20.
