Little Marjorio is by no means fond
of going to church, says tho Cincinnati
Enquirer. She has to sit too still, and
"tho man" talks about things she can
not yet understand.
" What's it for, mamma?" she asked
one day. " What do wo goto church
for?"
Mamma tried to tell her the reasons,
and concluded by paying:
"And when you can't understand
what the minister means you must re
member ho is talking about good and
beautiful things, aud you must miik
up your mind to think of something
good you: fel f. "
That, day Marjorio was very quiet in
church, and her mother praised her for
it on the way home.
"I did just as you told mo, " said the
wee maid. "I thought of something
good. "
"What was it, dearlo?"
"Apple pie !"

The pine land is prelerable if one is

an animal must always raise its head

cannot do v. h. u thus hampered. To

is a wise precaution to have it held up

the rope will stretch little by little with

ie V.': Io Kiir Weevil In Corn.
i f sM,r Trice fif the college station,
is, says in Farm and Hunch: It
li'-in clearly demonstrated bv re-
1-
Te:
p aie.l trials that the storing of wet
cni'i j revents injurious effects from the
weevil by reason of the fermentation and
heat in the crib. A great many farmers
take the trouble to haul water and
sprinkle upon their corn after every few
wagon loads have been hauled. If the
corn is gathered in wet weather, there
is no necessity for taking this extra
trouble. I know of some farmers who
leave their corn in the crib exposed to
rainfall during the early fall and win
ter season to prevent injuries from wee
vil. Of course in all of this there is
constant danger that some corn will be
lust from rot, but usually the percent
of los.s from this cause is very small
and much lighter than would be felt
were weevil allowed to attack the crop.
Seed 'orii From Ti mill It-.ittn.
It is somewhat common practice to
discard the tips and butts of the ears
when shelling tlie seed for planting,
but the practice is of doubtful benefit.
A number of the experiment stations in
both the north and the south have made
lepeated tests of the productiveness of
eeed from different parts of the ear, but
these tests have shown no marked or
constant differences in yield, even when
the selections have been repeated through
several generations, according to Pro
fessor S. M. Tracy.
The September crop circular reports
excessive rainfall, resulting in shedding
and other unsatisfactory conditions of
cotton in the entire cotton growing re
