ABRAHAM LINCOLN'S ADVICE

The state historical department has
dug up a copy of a letter written by
Abraham Lincoln in 1S49, which is
somewhat pat" with the present poll
tical situation. 1t was written to J. II.
Clayton, secretary of state, the date
being July %, 1S49, says a Pierre dis
patch, and is:
1T is with some hesitation | pre-
sumo to address you in this letter.
and yet l wish not only you, but the
whole cabinet, and the president, too,
would consider the subject matter of
Tiny being among the people while
you and they are not, will excuse the
apparent presumption. 1t is under
stood that the president at first adopt
ed as a general rule, to throw the re-
sponsibility of the appointments upon
the respective departments, and that
such rule is adhered to and practiced
upon. This course / at first thought
proper, and of course | am not now
complaining of it. Still l am disap-
pointed with the effe t Of 1t on the
public mind. 1t is fixing for the presi-
dent the unjust and ruinous character
of being a mere man OF straw. This
must be arrested or it will damn us
all inevitably. 1t is said General Tay-
lor and his officers held a council of
wal at Palo Alto q b%elieve); and that
he then fought the battle against un-
animous opinion of those officers. This
fact (no matter whether rightfully or
wrongfully) gives him more popularity
than ten thousand submissions, how
ever really wise and magnanimous
these submissions may be. The ap-
pointments need be no better than
they have been, but the public must
be brought to understand, that they
are the presidents appointments. He
must occasionally say or seem to say
by the eternal l take the responsible
ity.' Those phrases were the Samson
locks of General Jackson, and we dare
not disregard the lessons of exper-
fence. Your obedient servant,
"A. Lincoln"

just because they display only those
frilly, beribboned handmade affairs in
the Fifth Avenue shop-windows, don't
you ever think that they're a national
vice. Let me tell you, there are thous-
andS and thousands of Toner up in
Minnesota and Wisconsin and Michi-
gan, and Oregon and Alaska and Ne
braska and Dakota, who are thankful
to retire every night protected by one
long, thick, serviceable flannel nightie,
and one practical hot-water bag. Up
in those countries retiring ism t a So

old-fashioned flannel nightgowns.

time. Remember a poor stand Is us
ually responsible for a low yield.
Pillow deep while sluggards sleep
and you'll have corn to sell and keep
is an old adage that has lots of truth
and logic in it. Corn must have a good
pervious, and friable seed bed. There
is a difference between hard ground
and the properly prepared and com
pacted seed bed. Put plenty of work
on the seed bed with disc, drag and
packer to get a good firm yet mellow
seed bed. The best time to cultivate
corn is before it is up. Don't let the
weeds get started, corn won't thrive
where the weeds are thick. More
about cultural methods later. BY John
f. Larson, Superintendent of Sphinx
County Farm Improvement Associa-
ton. A graduate of the State College.

CORN AS A FIELD CROP

With us it is no longer a question
"Can we grow corn?" but how much
shall we put out this season? Has it
been a profitable crop? a it be
made more profitable? are the cues
tons that should decide largely what
the acreage of corn or any other crop
should be in a given season. Where
livestock are kept on the farm, this
crop can be utilized to the best ad-
vantage. We need it to finish out the
cattle and hogs for market. What we
need more is a cultivated crop, like
corn, in our system of farming or
crop rotation. Land tires of wheat
wheat, wheat.
The variety that will mature the
greatest number Of bushels pei acre
is the desirable one, with particular
emphasis on the maturity. Stock does
much better on we'll matured corn.
The expression "off feed" originated
with feeders Of soft corn. The mar
kets demand solid corn and let's see to
it that it Is produced. Minnesota No.
10, and Early Murdoch are varieties
of yellow corn that have stood the test
of trial in different localities of Sphinx
county. Wisconsin No. 7, Burdette
White, and Sphinx County White dent
are varieties of white corn that have
proven to be early maturers and good
yielders. These can be improved for
your locality by careful breeding and
selection. Almost as much stress
should be placed on locality where
seed is grown as variety name. II
your neighbor has good seed corn Of a
tried variety, seek no further. Go
North rather than South for your seed
corn.
Use only well matured corn that will
grow as proven by termination test
for seed. The individual ear test is
the only III way to know. 1t only
takes about fifteen ears of corn to
plant an acre. II every hill produces
one ten ounce ear, the yield will be
31.5 bushels per acre. Our average
yield in the State is less than that;
evidently some hills have been miss
ing. Two r three stalks in each hill
will be better still. You can material
ly increase your yield of corn by taking
no chances on the growing power OF
seed. Three kernels to the hill In most
instances give best results. This can
be regulated to a nicely by grading
the seed corn and adjusting the plant.
