A few settings of eggs from my best pen of White Wyandottes at $2.00 per setting. BEN II NEW You want to make a paying corn crop this year, of course, Here then are a few things to do: (1) Plant only on land which will make at least a fair crop; you can.t afford to to grow corn in a field which you know will not make more than 10 or 15 bushels to the acre. (2) Pre pare the land well before planting: don’t get in a hurry and plant the corn among clods, or on a hard-baked soil. (3) Use good seed even if it costs you a little extra.(4) Cultivate often to the depth of not more than three inches: keep the turning plow out of your corn field, | (5) [Don’t pull fodder and so wast labor and reduce your yield of corn; get the full feeding value of the crop.

It does not matter what the mental statue of Jthat mother is, how old, how bent, how decrepit, the man to whom she is mother owes to her gentleness, kindness, tenderness and consideration. Did she fall back and did the children by means of superior advantages pass her in her race? But think of the toil and trial, her devotion and denial, her mind and her years that she gave that the children might derive tne benefit. Think of her sacrifice: no wonder if she fell be hind, with her heart in her home, in the buds that were hers.
