She took up a copy OF a New York

CORN AT $40 AN EAR.
Out In Iowa They Raise That Kind
and Buy 1t in Themselves.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Ten dollars seems q pretty big price tn
pay for just one ear Of corn, but out in
Iowa they raise corn which brings even
more than that 1t La not uncommon for q
man out there to raise corn which he can
not afford to own.
Improbable as this eounds, 1t is true.
and the explanation is that prize ears of
seed corn become the property Of the agri-
cultural courses where they are exhibited.
They are then sold at auction, and tho
man who raised them does not always
feel that he can afford to bid them in.
That was precisely what happened to an
Iowa. farmer named McCuloch not long
ago. He entered a good many ears Of corn
in the competition held at M-arshantown
under the of the state agrt-
cultural college. Over 5000 ears were en-
prize.
The prize was a $3.50 water supply sys-
tenn, so the farmer probably felt tina he
could afford to bid in the prize ear for
$11.5o. But when it came to buying back
50 other ears which he had entered he had
to let them go to others.
Those 80 ears brought s2o4. 30; 30 that,
provided he could nave sold the 81 ears Of
corn for they actually brought, s21s,
he could have bought his water supply
system and had $66 Left.
G. r. Howard won 500 with q single
ear Of corn In the same competition and
paid $40 for the ear to get it back. For
ten other ears which he entered he had
to bid up to Sl.B for the lot to get them.
Thirteen bushels of the corn that was
entered brought an average Of &c., 50 q
bushel. Iowa farmers have walked up to
the Importance Of improving their crops
by improving their seed. The consequences
Is that Iowa raises the finest corn in the
country and is constantly improving tho
quality and the quantity to the acre.

NOT WORKING FOR ARTS SAKE
Vioiinist Certainly Had No Mistaken
Idea as to His Ear for
the Melody.

The Blue Forest orchestra had just
finished an ear-piercing melody on the
front lawn Of Berry Inn"
One of the guests approached the
Tiolinist and somberly inquired:
DO you play by note?"
"NiTer a note DO / play, sir" replied
Mr.. Hennessey, hopping his ferered
brow with q handkerchief of sangui-
nary hue.
"Ah, by ear. them said the summer
boarder. with q smile of gracious in

"Niyer an ear helps me-" responded
the other. returning his handkerchief
to his capacious pocket.
Indeed. May / ask how you-what

inquirer.

Hen Beats a Drug store.

Senator Butt Of the Arkansas Senate
had just finished one Of his droll stories
about feeding morphine to a pointer
pup and watching him as he INDUCED
in the ensuing antics occasioned by the
opium. Representative DE Rossit,
Known as n Of the veracious men In
the state, said:
Senator, our dog reminds me of
my hen. Needing quinine one day,
as we often do. l mixed up an ounce
of the drug with molasses and rolled
it out into pills. Leaving the stuff to
dry on the front porch. I went into tho
house.
Returning, I saw the last Of my
pills swallowed by my hen.
OF course, 1 thought her silly head
would burst wide open. She simply
commenced cackling. and has beer lay
ing two eggs a day ever since. And do
you know, senator. those eggs are he

and declared by A. III. Jones. of the
Hawaiian Trust Company, to be very
successful innovation.
Before leaving for the mainland,
where he went to attend conyen-
ton of the Providential Life Insur-
ance company at Quebec, Mr.. Jones
arrspged with the Promotion Com
mittee for an album of photographs
to be prepared, which he took with
him on his journey On trains and at
the convention itself, the album,
which contained many OF the best pic
lures of Hawaii, attracted keen inter
est.
This is believed to be the first time
such scheme of promotion has been
carried out. But as the success of
the innovation is now regarded as es-
tablished, the committee expects to
furnish such albums to other resi-
dents leaving on tour of the main
land. A number of them have been
made up.
During Mr.. Jones' trip to Quebec.
which was attended by the agents Of
the company who had written more

Railroads furnishing the greatest

cars are fireproof. equipped with
every contrivance for the comfort Of
the travelling public.
