Simpson, Jr. Now is the time to be thinking about seed corn. 1 bie our readers will not put off the lection of seed corn until tlie winter time come on and the ears are all in the crib. The best time to select seed corn is in the field, (io out there now before the corn is cut, and see how the stalks are, how many ears are to the stalk and see if that is a strong and vigor ously growing and prolific stalk ol corn. If we wait until the corn is in tlie crib and select the ear, we will ordinarily get an ear that is produced ironi a single oearing siaia, anu w will then see that the purpose ol heredity or that like produce like will go on actively in ita plan of pro ducing corn one ear to the stalk, a little larger, perhaps, than the stalk bearing two ears, but less kernel to the stalk and lesn yield U the acre. It does not take much work to gi into tlie field and Debet a prolific stalk and save the seed from this stalk for the next year's planting. rrom corn selected at the college farm we find that a good vigorous stalk of corn, bearing two ears to the stalk, will produce about one and half times to one and three-fourths time as much corn as a stalk bear ing a single ear of corn tliough that ear is larger. the stalk bearing three ears will produce about two and one-fourth time as much corn a a stalk bearing one ear, and stalk bearing four ear will produce almost three times a much as the one ear bearing stalk. The stalks producing live and six and seven ears are not so prolific as the stalks producing two and three and four ears, lhe breeding of corn is si much in it infancy now that it is impossible to say just what is the ideal number of ears per stalk. We know that among our live stock brood sow bearing nine or ten or eleven pigs is more profitable than one bearing sixteen or twenty pigs to the litter, and doubtless the same thing is true of plant life. It is rea sonable hi siipMise that two or three well develoiKHi ears to the sulk will yield more corn in the end than the more proline car-bearing stalks; and we are convinced also that the stalk with one ear i less productive than the stalk with two or three or four ars, in just the same way as illus tratcd previously, using the brood sow branng three or four pigs to the litter is not so prolitable as one bear ing eight or ten or a dozen, u-t us go into the fields then and select the corn; let us look to the stalk and to the ear, or, in other words, to the whole corn plant. The largest quan tity of feed per acre is w hat is de sired, stover and corn combined. This is simple and practical. Our farmers can practice it and every farm will improve by it. Can we not hope that the readers of this article will not only begin to prac tice the selecting of seed corn, but also much of the other kinds of crops of the farm.

He has some of the characteristics of the Indian, being a natural born hunter, and as a walker he is alimwt without an equal. His fancy steps are a yard lung. In his earlier life, he tramiied over the country for miles and miles around in search of turkeys. He would often rise hour before daylight, walk seven or eight miles, and take his place in the "blinds" that he had preared. His double-barrelled shotgun was his most beloved comjanion,and it rare ly failed to bring him his desired luck. In his haunts, he had' traversed every patch of woods for miles around, hence he has never been known to get lost in the forest He seldom travelled the roads in going lo town, notwithstanding the fact that lie lives several miles from Hon roe.

His companions argued the iin IMissibility of his being able to get there before, or bv the stated time and backing their words by their faith, they wagered a set-up to a pint of whiskey. leaving the roads en tirely, he reached town by the speci fied time, and demanded his dram. Since the turkeys have for the most part disappeared, and since the ro bustness of his younger manhood is gone, he now wears an aspect of loneliness on his face. He exults alone in, the thought that in a few more short year he will join his old war comrades on the heavenly camp ing ground. His friends rejoice with him in the belief that he will be iermitted to enjoy that happy realization; for he has been striving alternately through the Methodist and Baptist churches of his commu nity, fur long years, to conquer the world, the flesh and the devil. The writer attended a series of meet ings with him a few days ago, and often were his cheeks wet with tears. There was not there a more radiant face than his. Though wholly un learned, when an old familiar hymn was sung he joined heartily in the singing; and though clad in a home spun shirt, and having on brogun shoes, despite the fact that he was in one of the most refined and well dressed congregations in the county Ins joy seems to have been up to the high water mark all the time.

The South can make more cotton now tlian the bal ance of the world can spin and weave. A few years ago cotton went down to 4 cents a pound. 1 he people planted other crops, which they hoed to lie more prolitable, and so the supply of cotton went oh. The number of mills multiplied the demand for cotton, the price went up, and hence an in crease in the supply of cotton. This crop now promises to 1 more than 12.0(X),000 bales, tlie largest the world ever saw. If we need more cotton we can have it simply by rais ing the price. Poor labor, that is, a poor quality and cheap, always hin ders and never helps any locality. There is no incentive to invent any labor-saving implement while cheap labor can be had. It's when labor is high and scarce that men tax their inventive genius to plow two furrows where before he cut but one. tabor, when it becomes high and scarce, causes men to festilize their farms so that one acre shall make more than two used to. None of these things w ill be done when poor, no-account pauper labor is standing around to work for whatever it can get, and be dear at that A typesetting machine is worth eight slow printers. A sulky plow can cultivate more land and do it better than a half dozen Dagos following dead-line mules. And so we can show that reapers, binders and separators have come in the absence of labor. There is al ways compensation for what we must give up. When our wives and daugh ters and sisters must cook and keep house, we look out for better cooking utensils, better well fixtures, more convenient cook rooms, and warmer dining rooms. The clearer is any country from unreliable, cheap, inef ficient labor, the better; in fact, as long as any section relies upon it, it will have nothing better to look to. DeWItt It the Nam.

And it seems to mo tlie re is nothing in the South to day like it. We don't hold to tiosi tive, individual beliefs like the South used to, and the memory of glories past do not linger in our minds. Think of the undying valor of our people less than half a century ag and the thousands of grand heroes that we had, holding honor, bravery and generosity more valuable than life! And to think that we are forget ting it, that our young people have passed it all by as a tale that is told and to be forgotten. Isn't the South losing its most precious possession by this forgetfulness? The passions, the purposes, the ideals of forty years ago are becoming as dim as those of the Wit of the Hoses.

"Well, the upshot was that the two of us got Uigether and did a little detective work. We watched the dog. And do you know what we found ?
