We hope Mrs. Tingen will soon be able to resume her work. Seed, Etc. The time is here for farmers who wish to make more corn with less labor to begin to plan and execute plans for that purpose. The special thing in hand now to be done is to go over your corn fields as fast as the corn is matured, and pick out seed corn for next year, if the va riety grown this year is suited to vour needs. Many experiments have proved the two-eared varieties of corn to be a little better than the best one-eared varieties all other thincrs being equal. In picking then, choose stalks with two good ears. These ears ought not to have a shuck shank lonsrer than necessary to make the ear hang downward so the shuck will not catch and hold water, it you pick out long shank ears, your seed will tend to develop a sucker, like habit of shooting clear down to the ground, and will diminish the size of the ears. Pick the two-eared stalks that have not too large stalk in propor tion to the ear. Pick those that have been produced low on the stalk, by no means above the mid dle of the stalk. Pick plenty out of your own crop for by doing this every year, you can raise seed that will suit your farm better than any you can buy. Besides you keep your money at home in your purse. Then, by choosing more than you may need you can go over thac chosen in 'the fields, and choose again for quality of corn, for beauty of ear, for all the good points to be had in the different types of ear. Keep in a dry place but well ventilated, and as far as possible from extremes of cold. These points are more impor tant than is usually thougnt, he cause they have much to do with the vitality of the seed, and, there fore, the power to make good corn next year. Seed well kept will come up very much better than when no attention to these condi tions is paid by the farmer. The next thing to do for a good crop next year is to cover every acre Dlanned for corn with crimson clover. On average land fifty cents spent on crimson ciover seed, so we nut in as to get a stand, will nx m the land so treated three dollars wnrth of fertilizing materal, better than that out of a stable or out of a fertilizer sack, if the clover is turned down after harrowing to cut nn clover. Six hundred per cent gain on the investment. Deep full nlowins-on ali soils having clay sub soils is also necessary to the largest yields.

Mickey, of Winston-Salern says there is no excuse for hogs dy- ine- with the cholera, and declares that if a very simple remedy had been used the sixty-five million dol lars which the official report de clares was lost last year by hogs dy ing from this disease could have been saved. Mr. Mickey's remedy is soft soap. All that is necessary to prevent a hog from having chol era is to feed it on corn dipped in soft soap. Leon White, a well to do citizen of Poyner's Hill, Currituck county, was found in his bed one morning several days ago with a bullet hole in his head.
