PLATE GLASS PC, BTC, Workmen for Painting and With a roa|" and a rattle the six o'clock express train rushed across the bridge that spanned the narrow -rv+m on the Derwejnt farm, near Concord, and Alice Derfcvent, the farmer's pretty, dark-eyed daughter, stbod on the vine- shaded porch,jlooking after it with an unconscious sigh. So many come by you, so ,'many go by you, out into the great, wide, beau- tiful world, slle thought as she gazed over the fertijle valley farm and out through the bteak in the circling blue mountains, from whence a trail of white smoke came floating back. "I wonder if you will ever bring me any- thing? or carry me away ? or must I live my life out to the end, shut in by these dark hills ?" "Supper ready, mother ?'' called out the hearty-looking farmer, halting in the glow of the bright firelight on the open hearth, as he came in from fod- dering the stock, followed by his son, Thomas, who was the living, breathing "image of his sire." "To be sure it is," replied his bustling little wife, who had just the same sweetj smile. "Isn't it always ready, father, when l,he train goes by? Come, Ahcer "A|ice is out there looking for her fortune, mother," said Tom. "It's com- ing by that train, I know all about it.'' Alice smiled and shook her head at her saucy brother, as she took her seat at her father's side. Little did 4 n y °£ them think how many a true word is spoken in jest, or that the fortune which the evening ex- press was to bring the daughter of tne house was even then nearing their hos- pitable door. "I've worked like a beaver all day long, Martha,^ and Tom has kept pace with me, audi we both s^aid as we came home that wd were too tired to eat. But this is cemfort! It would be hard to see anything much pleasanter than this nice, tidy kitchen, and just as hard to find any of their French cooks that can beat you and Alice, my dear," said Elihu Derwent, glancing thankfully at the blazing fire, the table laid so neatly, the tefnpting meal batter-cakes and maple-syrup, wheateu bread and golden butter^ and a large platter of cold corned-beaf and vegetables that was placed before the two hungry men. Mrs. Derwejnt poured out the tea- strong, hot arid fragrant. "Squire Seaton up in the big house yonder dflfvt often get such tea as this, with all his stjiff of servants," said Tom, looking across the valley to the brick and freestone! palace of the one million- aire of the village. "Poor man!" sighed Mrs. Derwent. "I do pity hiijn! His wife and daugh- ter dead, and his only son so wild and willful and a wanderer all over the world. Only last week he told me with tears in) his eyes, that he had heard of his boy, and that he had been seen lately in Leadville intoxicated and poorly dresse I, in a gambling saloon. Yet when he) wrote there to him—and wrote kindly—he had disappeared. If it was our Tom, Klipu, I should just break my heart. Tom, if you ever do grow unsteady and run away like Phil- up Seaton, yon will give your mother her death blow. Remember that!" "Thank Gojd.it isn't Tom, Martha ;Fm sorry, too, fo * the man and the boy. Mr. Seaton owns that he turned him out of his house in a fit of anger, and that the boy uwore hewould never en- ter his doors again. Bad temper on both sides, yotksee} and so—Why Mar- tha, what on eajrth is that!" Farmer De:went might well ask the question and rush from the tea table to the door, Mowed by his wondering wife and chillren. A procession of four pi his neighbors was coming up from hjis garden gate. At the gate snood a horse and a light express wagon, and from the wagon the men had lifted an inanimate body and were bearing it toward the house. "Tiiesix o'jplock express has run off ile or two up the valley,'' ones, as he and his two brother-in-law reached h their senseless burden, y people] hurt, but able n as t^iey got righted fellow ty son-j-my son—my Philip at your jr's |ioii8e? And dying, you fear? fat Asking for me? Coming to"me? Wait, child! I'll go with you, of course—I'll go to mi poor boy! But th© room is turning foujnd—I think I must be go- in Windf T Alice sjpMng to his side. The gray hea4 felf on her shoulder. Tenderly she smoothed the silvery hair away from thd high forehead and bathed the pale face with the cold water and fra- grant essences which the frightened servants] brought. The old man revived to find her min- istering to him thus. And it was al- most like father and daughter that they took their yay across the valley to- gether, ne leaning on her arm and list- ening grpeqily to all that she could tell him of h|8 long absent, long mourned son. y[father's voice! I hear his haill get* well if he will only e![' said the invalid, greatly Djjrwent's surprise, as the Softly opened to astranger's Washington's Body Servant, 'It is .step! I forgive to Mrs. house d touch. He str sistingh "Fath he said i ggled up from his pillows, re- r attempt to soothe him. r, I am sorry- forgive me!" a firmer voice, as Alice en- tered, followed by the aged man. And then; Squire Eaton came feebly but swiftly 'into the room, and he held his son to his heart, sobbing aloud with gratitude and joy while Alice drew her bewildeif'3d ! mother into the kitchen and told! her of her expedition to the house of; the lonely millionaire. Joy eeljdom kills; and there is a re- vivifying power in love and happiness combined, far beyond the skill of all earthly physicians or the virtue of all earthly Arugs. So it jnappened that as the spring months deepened into summer, Philip Seaton, sjtrong and well once more, stood beside bonny Alice in the porch one evening to see the six o'clock ex- press flash by. "At Leadville, when I was utterly reckless, and utterly penniless, too, a letter fropi my father reached me," he said, in a low tone.' "It was so kind, so sad, tljiat it seemed to turn me from my evil Course on the moment. Just as I was-t-in the rough garments of a miner—I set off to return to my father, like the prodigal son. And God led me here!" There was a long silence j sank out mountains; the was in the air ''In mj never en home," t of sight behind the first chill of' the sun circling evening anger I swore that I vi^ould er the door of my father's le young man went on. "But it was ndt^iis home! Here I may en- ter purified, repentant, forgiven, if the good aji^el of my new life will only go with me.i Will she, Alice?" He took her hand. "But your father!" stammered Alice. "I am only a farmer's daughter! and you—" "I am not worthy of your love in any way. Bifit m y f a t h e r begs you to be his daughter, Alice. Say yes." She did say it. And so the greatest fortuneof her life—the brightest hap- piness of both their lives came on that evening irain. —M^rgeret Blount. General Washington's will contained the following clause: "And to my mulatto man, William, calling himself William Lee, I give immediate freedom. Or, if he should^prefer it (on account of the accidents which have befallen Uim, and which have rendered him incapa- ble of walking, or of any active em- ployment) to remain in the situation he now is, it shall be optional in him to do so; in either case, however, I al- low him an annuity of thirty dollars his natural life, Which shall be inde- pendent of the victuals and clothes he has been accustomed to receive, if he chooses the last alternative; but in full with his fredom, if he prefers the first, this I give him as a testimony of my sense of his attachment to me, and for faithful services during the Revolution- ary war." "Billy," afe William Lee was always called, was Washington's favorite body servant all through the war for inde pendence and aftervard. He had been huntsman before the war, and was a conspicious figure at headquarters. The General regarded him as so emi- nently trustworthy in every particular that to his care was alwavs given the portmanteau containing tne headquar- ters papers when transported from place to place. Billy was with Wash- ington all through his presidential career, and lived until about the vear 1825. Mr. Custis Once related to me an an- ecdote of Billy, which may not be out of place in this connection. At the beginning of the battle at Mommouth Court House, on a hot day in June, 1?78, were seen gathering upon an em- inence not far off, covered by a single sycamore tree, a group of the servants of the general officers. They were all well armed and mounted. Billy was, of course, the leader among them. He was a square built muscular figure and an excellent horseman. With much pomp of manner he had paraded the little corps of servants under the tree on the eminence, from which they might have quite an extensive view of the battle field. Billy unslung the General's great spy glass, which the servant always carried suspended in a leather case, and with th0 air of an experienced General, applied it to his eye and surveyed the scene before him. Washington observed this manoeuvre of the servants, and said to an aid: "See those fellows collecting under yonder tree; the enemy will surely fire upon them; go arid order them to leave." At that moment the British having perceived a burly figure*well mounted, with others on horseback, and believ- ing them to be a van of a cavalry corps, let fly a solid shot from a six-pounder, which fortunately went over their heads, but cut many branches from trees. This missile was as potential as an order from the Commander-in Chief, for it caused an immediate scampering of the darkey squad to places of safety. The occurrence caused Washington's gravity of countenance to relax into a broad smile.— Lossing. York Agricultural Experi- ment Station.

The custom of rejecting thie butt and lip kernels ftom the selection of seed corn is an almost universal practice among our more careful farmers who exercise concern about their seed. In an experiment designed to determine the influence of this butt and tip kernels uped as seed, normal ears of Wansba- kum corn were taken, and planted kernel by kernel on two plats in eight rows, each kernel oiccupying in the ro^ir the relative position fit occupied on the earj One ear was thus diagrammed on unmannred soil, the other upon soil which received 400 pounds of Bowker's hill and drdl phosphate per acre. These two plats were so situated that the butt kernels commenced ijpon the north and south end respectively, the kernels be- ing planted towards the cenitre, leaving a space of several yhrds between the tip ker- nels of ea(ch ear. The seed was planted May 31st, the drills 42 inches apart, the kernels one foot apart in the drill. It! was supposed that under this method of planting any di- vergence of growth would become at oace manifest %o the eye, and change in time of bloom, or, ripening, as between the product of each kernel if influenced by location of the kernel upou the cob, could be readily perceived and noted. We wire able, how- ever, to discern but little, if any, differences during growth. In the kernels on the nn- manured plat fewer of the butjt and tip corns vegetated than irom the ear planted on the manured plat, while upon hpth plate the vegetation of the central kernels was nearly perfect. Vegetation appeared June 10th uniformly over both plats, on; July 25th the tassels showed uniformly over the plats, on July 29th marked as in blooia, and no per- ceptible difference as between the centers and ends of the rows. The corn was left standing'until October 5th, (when the Di- rector and his assistants husked each plant, laying its yield upon the ground alongside each plant, and made the following figures: Uumanured Manured Butt Central Tip.

Of the 80 butt kernels, 56 kernels or 70 per cent, germinated; of the 611 central kernels, 589 kernels, or 96 per cent, germinated; of the 80 tip kernels, 83 kernels or 97.5 per cent germinated. We may, however, conclude that in general on normal, well-selected ears, the tip and butt kernels are as likely to grow as are the central kernels, and furn- ish equally well appearing plants.

Hamilton, of New Yank, boldly handles the question ot sewei)' gas. He frankly acknow- ledges thit the plumbers are an abused class! Tie impossible has been de- manded of them. They have been charged^ with the work of keeping sewer gHs out of houses while pipes connected with sewers open into al- most every room. All the skill of the specialist) has been brought to bear u pon the problem of keeping these pipes in, and keeping the gas out. With all their devices of traps and siphons, the specialists have failed. Dr. Hamilton admits that no device yet invented will keep] sewer gas from a house, the rooms dflwhich are connected with a sewer. He doesn't expect that any de- vice will hereafter answer the purpose. His reniepy is heroic aad sensible. He says keep the sewer pipes out of the house ajia away from living rooms al- together! Civilization, says he, must make concessions. It must confess that all its elaborate contrivances are failures^ I One chief concession is thus stated by the doctor: " That all plumb- ing having any direct or indirect con- nection with the sewers, shall be ex- cluded from those portions of our houses which we habitually occupy. In other word^p, that it shall [be placed in a separate building, or ^,n annex. That we return to the open fire place, or the grate, as the means of warming our private nouses. A di minished con- sumption of oxygen by gas burners." The doctpr enforces these positions by an exhaustive article, in which the ex- perience: of the best physipians and chemists) is detailed. He quotes Pro- fessor Doremus to show that sewer gas will force its way through water in the form of [bubbles, and through brick, stone and) unglazed earthenware. Gas- es also escape through iron pipes. Dr. Hamiltok says that these facts are hav- ing thejir influence already. " In- deed," he says, " stationary basins are now oxcluded from many oE the most fashionable hotels in the country, and if I am correctly informed, from Sev- eral public and private houses in tbis city, which I have not mentioned; al- though most of them continue the more objectionable practice of having the water clpsets in the same building with their guestsand their families."— Roch- chester democrat. Um^m. KATLBbAD ROMANCE.—The Amster- dam JBedorder relates a very romantic story of la gang Of Italian laborers who are at workon the West Shore railroad near thait village. The heroine of the story was a fair young woman named Angella Laurino, who lived on the elope of the Appennines. Her lover, Franko Patricia, came to this country to bet- ter his fortunes, and, unable to remain separated from him, Angella clothed herself as a man and worked her way as a sailor to New York. Learning that Frankojwas engaged as a railroad la- borer, she too obtained a like position and finally joined a gang whose head- quarters were near Amsterdam. Here She twice saw her lover, at a distance, once upon a passing canal boat and again on an express train, but she could not make her presence known to himJ At length she was stricken with a fever, and, during a moment when the delirium had left her, she saw he# lover bending over her. She gasped put a few words of farewell and died in hie arms. For four days Franko watched the corpse and then gave it burial under the road bed of the West Shore railroad. 1 ss • m 2£P" The self-sacrificing spirit of some people is most remarkable. They will go to any length to make others happy, and consider their own incon- veniences as of small account if only they can give to others from their rich stores of assistance or information. Thus at the theatre, last night, a self- denying young man kindly abstracted his mind from the play and gave little attention to its language or action, in order that he might fully explain to the young woman at his side, and in- cidentally to all who were fortunate enough to sit near him, the develope- ment of the plot and the incidents that attended it. "There," this self-consti- tuted choragus would say, as Camille would put on her shawl, "that's the same shawl she died in the other night.'' When the supper was brought on in the first act he said also, ' That's real cham- pagne in those bottles. These French actresses always drink real champagne on the stage. I guess the bananas, though, are only dummies; I*see they don't eat any of them.'' Moreover, when Camille was distressfully cough- ing, this animated compendium of theatrical knowledge would explain, "She hain't really got anything the matter of her lungs. You'd think she had, to hear her, but it's all acting." .How glad we should be that such per- sons as this attend the theatre and will not permit us, in our ignorance, tp go astray.—Boston Journal. ^»»» 8 1)1 30 5 Re-calculating the figures in this table ao as to give the yield per plant, by estimating the missing kernels as equally productive with the grain-bearing plants, we have:— Unmanured Plat Manured Plat Butt Central Tip Butt Central Tip Merchantable 253 ears ... . *— 44 Unmerchantable ears J— 23 Mercha'ble ears $ 100 plants.. 110 Unmercnantble ears ^ 100 plants 57 Average length of in. mercha'ble ears 7.57 Av.wt merdha'ble lbs ears ^100 plants 48.5 Av. wt 100 mer- cha'ble ears— 43.4 48 13 284 47 i>2 8 11 73 iao 112 107 m 96 in. 5.55 lbs 27.9 go in. 8.13 lbs 46.6 27 In. 6.64 lbs 51.6 14 in. 7.10 lbs 46.8 KNOXVILLE, TENN., Oct.—This morn ing, Gen. James Mabry, Major Thus. O'Connor and Joseph Mabry, Jr.. were killed in a shooting affray." The diffi- culty began, yesterday, by Gen. Mabry attacking O'Connor on the fair grounds, and threatening to kill him. The cause of the difficulty was an old feud about the transfer of property. Late in the afternoon, Mabry sent word to O'Connor that he would kill him on sight. This morning, O'Cornor was standing in the door of the Mechanics' National Bank, of which he was presi- dent, when j Gen. Mabry and another gentleman walked down the street on the opposite side. O'Connor stepped into the bank and got a shot gun, took 'deliberate ai|n at Gen. Mabry and fired, killing him. As he fell, O'Connor fired again, the shot taking effect in Ma- bry 8 thigh. O'Connor then reached into the bank and got another shot gun. Joseph Mabry, Jr., eon of the General, here rushed down the street, unseen by O'Connor, until within forty feet, when young Mabry fired a pistol, the shot taking effect* in O'Connor's right breast, passing through the body near the heart. The instant Mabry fired O'Gonnor turned and shot young Mabry in the left breast and side, twen- ty buckshot entering his body. Al- most instantly O'Connor fell dead, without a struggle. Young Mabry tried to rise, but fell back dead. The whole tragedy occurred within two minutes. Neither of the three spoke after being shot. General Mabry was pierced by thirty buckshot. A by- stander was painfully wounded in the thigh with a buckshot and another in the arm. Four other men had their clothes pierced by buckshot.* The bodies were borne away on stretchers. The affair caused great excitement. The street was soon thronged with thou- sands of people. Mabry and son were acquitted, a few days ago of the murder of Moses Lu3by and son Don, whom they killed a few weeks ago. Will Mabry was killed by Don Lusby last Christmas. O'Connor was the wealth- iest man in the State. in. 7.55 lbs 535 38.0 38.5 45.8 43.7 45.5 Average of both plats:- SEED USED Butt Central Tip Kernels 90 118 in 618 lbs 37.3 40.9 16 134 in 7.S lbs 50.0 420 i A BLOODY SCENE.—At two o'ck>ck Saturday morning, at Evansville, Ind., 100 men on horseback surrounded the jail. They then took B6dmon v the al- leged wife murderer, from his cell, put him in a buggy and drove off. A num- ber of shots were fired and bells rung for the purpose of notifying the police, but the party escaped. The police fired down the street in the direction taken by the mob. One of the latter, Dave Murphy, was killed. It is reported that the mob, after proceeding some distance in the direction of Mount Ver- non, beatRedmon on the head with a sledge hammer. A fire engine ran against and over-turned a buggy in which Redman was riding. Orders were given to kill him on the spot. One of the band, with a sledge hammer, struck Redmoh in the head, felling him. j Several officers arrived and fired on the retreating mob, who returned the' fire. A regular pitched battle was; fought, bullets whistling in t every di J rection. The officers were compelled) to lie on the ground to escape death. Redmon was killed where he wasj stricken down. Over a dozen balls en-f tered his body. The mob were so| in-j tent upon killing Redmon that they fired belter skelter through their ranks.

The tip kernels were the most prolific of good corn. 2. The butt kernels were more prolific of good corn! than the central kernels. 3. The tip kernels bore longer ears than the other kernels, the butt kernejp the next, and the central kernels the shortest. This fact was apparent to the sight as the corn lay upon the ground after husking. 4. The merchantable ears from the butt were distinctly heavier than those from the tip, and those from the tip distinctly heavier than those from the central kernels. 5. The butt kernels furnished more un- merchantable corn than did the central kernels, alnd the - central kernels more than did the tip kernels. In order to give more prominence to the meaning of these figures, we calculate the yield per acre, allowing 75 pounds of ear corn to the bushel of shelled corn; a method of presenting results which is fallacious if assumed to mean real yield per acre, but convenient and allowable if understood to represent calculated results only. The figures upon which the results are calculated are as follows: Each plant occupies 504 square inches of space; an acre contains 7,272,640 square inches, therefore an acre would contain 12,- 445 plants. Shelled corn The 80 butt kernels yielded mercha'ble corn at rate of J — , — The 611 central do do ..; .... •»•" The 80 tip do dd 88 " Re-calculating for the manured and un- manured plats, we have: Unmanured Manured The butt kernels yielded mer- per acre per acre cha'ble corn at rate of The central do do . The tip do do . The total 426 do do . The total 345 do do . We may be pardoned if we call attention to the conditions which serve to add trust- worthiness to the conclusions which these figures suggest, always desiring it to be noted, however, that the experimental re- searches «f one season must be followed by the test or verification in the succeeding season before they should be accepted as finalities. * 1. The seed used was of the Waushakum variety, a kind of corn which has now been bred for a number of years with the utmost care, until at present there is a good unifor- mity of quality in the product of its seed under given conditions, and a strong race character which gives it considerable power to resist individual variation. 2. The seed used was all from one ear thus in connection with th© care that has been ex- ercised for years past to guard against hybridization, ensuring a seed corn of as uniform a character as can at present be ob- tained. 3. Both plats showed a remarkable uni- formity of appearance as between their several rows, thus indicating uniformity of character in the soil upon which the seed was planted. 4/ There waa no difference apparent m the maturity of the various plants. 5. The eats were husked by ourselves and each plant's product laid by itself npoa the ground at the foot of the stalk which bore the crop* thus ensuring against mistake in the counting, measuring and weighing. 6. Three separate observers carefully went over each row and verified each other's conclusions, and thus absolute agreement in observations was secured on the spot. —-o As a matter of interest we present a tabic of the results for the eight rows, calculated to the 100 plants, in order that the varia- tions under these favorable conditions of seed and soil may become prominent, and thus indicate in a measure the character of the seed and soil.

Raoul Pic- tet on the principle of his larger ma- chine. It is capable of producing two pounds of ice in fifteen minutes, or about ten pounds per hour, with an ex- penditure of less than a horsepower of energy. It consists of a compression pump actuated by the motor employed to yield the power; a freezer surround- ing the cylinder of the pump; and an- other in which is placed the vessels containing the water to be frozen. These parts are all grouped into a ma- chine standing about tour feet high and eighteen inches square. The pro- cess is as follows: Sulphuric anhydride is placed in the freezer around the cyl- inder, and on working the pump the evaporation absorbs a large quantity of heat from a well of glycerine con- stituting the freezer by which the wa- ter to be frozen is surrounded. The sulphuric anhydride is carried by the pump into a condenser where it is liq- uified, and in the act yields up a certain qauntity of heat. The condenser is kept cool by the circulation of water. W h y H e W a s Caught. bush ! Mr. Albert Austin, of Suffield, who presided over congregressional conven- tion of the Connecticut Democrats of the first district, in a few brief remarks explained his departure from the Re- publican party, and illustrated it by a story so pat to the existing situation that it elicited shouts of laughter. Mr. Austin said he quitted the party some years ago, and that its sins of extraya gance andplunder seemed to be growing wors3 and worse. It reminded h i m of a respectable-looking convict he once saw in the Ohio penitentiary. When asked how he came in such a place, the fellow said, "I'll tell you. I was sent up for stealing a saw-mill!" Being asked to explain himself he added, "O, that was all right; but I was such a d—d fool that, not satisfied with the saw-mill I went bock and stole the dam! and then they caught me." -**«- $3F" Ingersoll, the infidel and blas- phemer, occupies one of the cottages at Long Beach, and is frequently in the spacious piazza of the hotel. Hav- ing often heard him spoken of as a re- markably fme-looking man. we had some curiosity to see him, but no man ever more completely reversed our ex- pectation. He is of medium height, and somewhat -heavily made, showing as little taste as could well be in his dress. But his face is the most dis- appointing part of his physique. It has about as much intellectual ex- pression in it as a rump of beef. We saw him off and on several days, and a significant thing was that while many gentlemen knew lie was there and eyed pirn with some curiosity, nobody had anything to say to him. No man could have been utterly alone so far as the guests of the hotel were concerned. I t . is doubtless true that he has some pow- er over the audience he gathers by hia lectures, but be reminded us constantly of the scathing description given of him in the star route case by Mr. Ker, of Philadephia, the chief elements of his influence being bluster, brag and andacity.— New York Examiner. ***^. REAL ESTATE WOMEN.—"Macaulay" in the Rochester Democrat, mentions some extensive operations in real estate in New York by women. Among oth- er women operators is Mrs. Eliza Waldron, who has just obtained a building permit for the erection of a / double store at Nos. 682 and 604 Broad way, extending though the block. The cost will be $150,000, and the rent will render it a very favorable invest- ment. Here, too, is Mrs. Elizabeth Mehan, who has just begun the erection of forty houses at an aggregate cost of half a million dollars. These facts and others that might be mentioned show that New York contains a class of wo- men builders of great energy. Speak- ing of women in this connection. Mrs* A. T. Stewart may be mentioned as the richest land holder of the female sex in this City* Notwithstanding the ex- change which she made with Judge Hilton, which was to him a bargain of $2,000,000, she still holds real estate to the value of $15,000,000. Among her best properties is the Fifth avenue pal- ace, which cost $1,000,000, and also the Metroplitan Hotel, which was valued _*. *o rw\ Ann Manured pounds 4 46 as 40 i 41 •8 41 4$ If we should calculate these rows to the acre the result weald be a variation of about 10 bushels of 75 pounds for the unmannred rows, and 11 bushels im the manured rows per calculated acre, or hat 14£ and 13£ per cent. As a corollary to this presentation it will at $2,000,000. -*«•- In settling the estate of James Reddock, a somewhat eccentric bach- elor farmer at Gray River, N. J ., a couple of barrels of buckwheat were sold. The purchaser of one disputed the measurement, and it was measured. In the middle of the barrel was found a small tin kettle containing $184. The dissatisfied buyer then wished ho had held his tongue. This discovery led to a search of the premises, wften over $100 more were found hidden Jkway in a similar manner. Thomas M.

the rivulet gleams les through the vale—

The s iken milt above the stream's Fair path, shines like a glist'ning sail.

I see the squirrel skip and dart Among the ainbow-tinted leaves,

The glossy cb wstnuts Are his h e a r t -But, as for 1 im, he never grieves.

Where red an L russet orchards stand, Bowing thei • burdens to the plain.

The lover take s his loved one's hand And sauntei s through the orchard lane.

The clouds arq soft that fleck the sky, The dry leaves rustle past their feet;

But their unclouded reverie. And blissful dreams, and visions sweet,

Outdo the spl< ndor of the day, Surpass the ?lory of the dawn;

The world it-e If must pass away Ere such defghts are dead and gone! ,

I mark their treasured step—and slow— The cottage|gate, the parting kiss;

And think no summers v a a l y go That end in puch triumphant bliss!

BULLETIN NO. ^ I I I . The custom of rejecting thie butt and lip

kernels ftom the selection of seed corn is an almost universal practice among our more careful farmers who exercise concern about their seed. In an experiment designed to determine the influence of this butt and t ip kernels uped as seed, normal ears of Wansba-kum corn were taken, and planted kernel by kernel on two plats in eight rows, each kernel oiccupying in the ro ir the relative position fit occupied on the earj One ear was thus diagrammed on unmannred soil, the other upon soil which received 400 pounds of Bowker's hill and drdl phosphate per acre. These two plats were so situated that the but t kernels commenced ijpon the north and south end respectively, the kernels be­ing planted towards the cenitre, leaving a space of several yhrds between the tip ker­nels of ea(ch ear. The seed was planted May 31st, the drills 42 inches apart, the kernels one foot apart in the drill. It! was supposed that under this method of planting any di­vergence of growth would become at oace manifest %o the eye, and change in time of bloom, or, ripening, as between the product of each kernel if influenced by location of the kernel upou the cob, could be readily perceived and noted. We wire able, how­ever, to discern but little, if any, differences during growth. In the kernels on the nn-manured plat fewer of the butjt and tip corns vegetated than irom the ear planted on the manured plat, while upon hpth plate the vegetation of the central kernels was nearly perfect. Vegetation appeared June 10th uniformly over both plats, on; July 25th the tassels showed uniformly over the plats, on July 29th marked as in blooia, and no per­ceptible difference as between the centers and ends of the rows. The corn was left standing'until October 5th, (when the Di­rector and his assistants husked each plant, laying its yield upon the ground alongside each plant, and made the following figures:

Uumanured Manured

Butt Central Tip. Butt Central. Tip Kernels planted 40 346 40 \ 40 265 40 Kernels vegetated 17 333 38 139 256 40

Thus the germinative per cent, of the two ears was:—426 kernels planted, 388 grew, or 91 per cent, for the ear on the unmanured soil; and 345 kernels planted,, 335 grew, or 97 per cettt. for the ear on the manured soil. Of the 80 but t kernels, 56 kernels or 70 per cent, germinated; of the 611 central kernels, 589 kernels, or 96 per cent, germinated; of the 80 tip kernels, 83 kernels or 97.5 per cent germinated. We may, however, conclude that in general on normal, well-selected ears, the tip and butt kernels are as likely to grow as are the central kernels, and furn­ish equally well appearing plants.

We next separated the merchantable and unmerchantable corn, and obtained the fol­lowing figures:

I t will also be observed that the outer rows of each plat are superior to the inner rows, but tha.t this superiority doea not hold with the second rows.

The surprising as unexpected outcome of this experiment, hence, can be formulated as follows:

1. The tip kernels were the most prolific of good corn.

2. The butt kernels were more prolific of good corn! than the central kernels.

3. The tip kernels bore longer ears than the other kernels, the butt kernejp the next, and the central kernels the shortest. This fact was apparent to the sight as the corn lay upon the ground after husking.

4. The merchantable ears from the butt were distinctly heavier than those from the tip, and those from the tip distinctly heavier than those from the central kernels.

5. The butt kernels furnished more un­merchantable corn than did the central kernels, alnd the - central kernels more than did the tip kernels.

In order to give more prominence to the meaning of these figures, we calculate the yield per acre, allowing 75 pounds of ear corn to the bushel of shelled corn; a method of presenting results which is fallacious if assumed to mean real yield per acre, but convenient and allowable if understood to represent calculated results only.

The figures upon which the results are calculated are as follows:

Each plant occupies 504 square inches of space; an acre contains 7,272,640 square inches, therefore an acre would contain 12,-445 plants.

Shelled corn The 80 butt kernels yielded mercha'ble

corn at rate of J — , — The 611 central do do . . ; . . . . • » • " The 80 tip do dd 88 "

Re-calculating for the manured and un­manured plats, we have:

Unmanured Manured The butt kernels yielded mer- per acre per acre

cha'ble corn at rate of The central do do . The tip do do . The total 426 do do . The total 345 do do .

We may be pardoned if we call attention to the conditions which serve to add trust­worthiness to the conclusions which these figures suggest, always desiring it to be noted, however, that the experimental re­searches «f one season must be followed by the test or verification in the succeeding season before they should be accepted as finalities. *

1. The seed used was of the Waushakum variety, a kind of corn which has now been bred for a number of years with the utmost care, until at present there is a good unifor­mity of quality in the product of its seed under given conditions, and a strong race character which gives it considerable power to resist individual variation.

2. The seed used was all from one ear thus in connection with th© care that has been ex­ercised for years past to guard against hybridization, ensuring a seed corn of as uniform a character as can at present be ob­tained.

3. Both plats showed a remarkable uni­formity of appearance as between their several rows, thus indicating uniformity of character in the soil upon which the seed was planted.

4/ There waa no difference apparent m the maturity of the various plants.

5. The eats were husked by ourselves and each plant's product laid by itself npoa the ground at the foot of the stalk which bore the crop* thus ensuring against mistake in the counting, measuring and weighing.

6. Three separate observers carefully went over each row and verified each other's conclusions, and thus absolute agreement in observations was secured on the spot.

— - o As a matter of interest we present a tabic

of the results for the eight rows, calculated to the 100 plants, in order that the varia­tions under these favorable conditions of seed and soil may become prominent, and thus indicate in a measure the character of the seed and soil. Bow Unmanured
