[From Bulletin No. 87, Now In Press] * Fifteen varieties of field corn entered into this competition for first place. It was intended to include only such rari ties as were supposed to be of practically the same general habit of growth and period of maturity; because a test of two varieties, one of which produces a smaller and earlier maturing plant, while the other is of robust habit and later variety, would generally prove un fair to one or the other, ofteuer to the smaller and earlier variety. Two vari eties, however, — Shannon’s Early and Brown’s Early Prolific—vrero included in the list of tested varieties, and all were planted under the same conditions as-to time, distance and fertilization. One acre of gray, loamy soil with mostly yellow clay subsoil, was selected for the test. It is one of the best acres on the farm, and produced a yield of about 83 bushels of corn in 1891 There were 52 rows across the acre, permitting a triplication of each variety and some thing over.

Averages of all varieties 31.81 .... Table Na 1 gives the results, the va rieties being arranged, not in the order of planting, but according to yield. Comment at this point is hardly needed, especially in regard to varie ties tested for the first time, except to note any peculiar characteristic of a newly tested variety. It is well known to those who have had much experience in testing varieties of corn that some kinds are quite variable in productive ness, seeming to require peculiar con ditions to give the best results; while other varieties seem more hardy to en dure unfavorable conditions without se rious loss in yield and quality. For the reason just given table Na 111 (not here printed) was prepared to show . the yield for several years of such vari eties as have been before tested. This table shows that but two varieties, Shaw’s and Higgins', have been tested without intermission for 6 years, and these rank 1 and 2 in the average yield of those years, These may be consid ered as two proven varieties, uniform and persistent in yield. Cocke's Pro lific stands well for a test of 2 years, having stood Ist in 1896, and 2d in 1897. Mammoth Yellow, tested only this year,, stands Ist, but only 0.14 bushels more than that of Cocke's Prolific. Shannon’s Early produces a short, •’stocky” plant, ears long, cob large, grain white and rather short, and about 4 weeks earlier than the ordinary large • varieties. Had it been planted 2 feet instead of 8 feet in the row, and not overshadowed by the other taller varie ties, it might have made almost, if not quite, as much corn as the average yield of the other 14 varieties. It seems to be well suited for ah early bread corn. [From Bulletin No. 39, soon toappear.] VARIETY TEST OF COTTON. TWENTY-ONE VARIETIES. TABLE 2.

In Table Na 2 the “total yields" of seed cotton, the yields of lint, percent age of lint, values of the yields of lint and seed, etc., per acre, of each of the 21 varieties, is given. In Table No. 8, the rank of each va riety is given it regard to (1) total yield , of seed cotton, (2) total yield of lint, (8) total yield of seed, (4) percentage yield Os lint, (5) size of bolls, (6) size of seed, (7) earliness, (8) value of total product, and (9) percentage of the total yield picked out by Sept. 14. JACKSON’S “LIMBLESS” COTTON. Press Bulletin 86, October, 1897, gave some interesting particulars in regard to this so-called “limbless” cotton. Tho following is a reprint of the article on the subject as it originally appeared in that little bulletin: “This so-called 'Jackson’s Limbless Cotton’ was first brought before thp public, under this name, in the fall of 1896. It was said to have sprung from seeds obtained in 1895 in Central Africa. It was claimed that it belonged to a new genus; that it would produce four to six bales of lint per acre on ordinary upland; that the lint is extra long, fine and strong, etc. The claim of African origin, and that it is of a new genus of Gossypinm, seems to have been abandoned, and the sched ule of its merits is as follows: 'This cotton has become famous throughout the cotton growing world, and it seems destined to work a revolu tion in the cotton business. (1) It is entirely limbless. (2) The stalk grows from 10 to 14 feet high. (8) The fibre is incomparably the finest in the world. (4) The fibre is remarkably strong and one and a half inches long, perfectly white, and has a satin-like touch. (5) We have four acres in cultivation this season, and expert cotton growers sdy that we will get 20 bales from the four acres—that is, five bales to the acre. (6) It is the most prolific cotton in the world. ’ The price first fixed for seeds of this ‘Limbless’ was Si. 00 per 100 Seeds, or s2.sQper 500 seids. At fl.oo per 100 seeds one pound would cost fbO.OO, and one bushel 11,800.001 The price has re cently been reduced to SLOO per pound of seed, or $210.00 per bushel!’ The above are the claims put forward for this remarkable cotton by its pro moters. After considerable difficulty the Di rector succeeded in getting a small quan tity of the seed (of unquestioned purity) and they were planted in direct compe tition with 20 other varieties compris ing the Station’s 'Variety Test.’ Os course all the conditions affecting the 21 varieties were made precisely the same as far as practicable.” Then followed a table showing the total yield per acre of each of the 21 va rieties up to and including October 6, the date of the third picking, showing that the so called “Limbless” stood 10th in point of total yield' of seed cottou. But as the final picking is now avail able, that preliminary table is here omitted. The Press Bulletin No. 86 goes on to say: “The final pickings will probably make a material change in the rank of some of the varieties; but it is not prob able that Na 10 will be materially changed. Very soon after the cotton commenced to limb and square, and each variety to develp whatever was peculiar to itself, it was suspected that the 'Jackson Limb less’ was either identical with a Certain old variety, or closely related to it Af ter the bolls commenced to open the Director became satisfied that the so represented new 'limbless* variety, was identical with the old variety above al luded to, viz: ’Welborn’s Pet,’ which was grown on this Station in 1890 and 1892. Correspondence with the origi nator of 'Welborn’s Pet’ variety, and exchange of sections of stalks, confirmed this conclusion of the identity of the to called ‘i.nibless’ with ‘Welborn’s,Pet,’ in the judgment of both Mr. Welborn and the Director. It is therefore confidently affirmed that 'Jackson’s Limbless (jotton’ and 'Welborn’s Pet’ are one and the same variety. 'Weiborn’s Pet’ has been before the people for 10 or 12 years. Now for the specific claims matje for the 'Jackson Limbless’ by its promoters, before enumerated: (1) It is not ‘entirely limbless,’ but is inclined to produce several (often five or six) long branches from near the ground. When very closely crowded in the drill, however, mahy stalks will be without these limbs, and their nor mal tendency (as with ‘duster cottons generally) to grow tall is much in creased. w (2) The stalks grow from 15 to 20 per cent taller than most ordinary varieties on the same soil On exceedingly rich soil, such as a rich alluvial, or a very highly manured spot, they may attain a height of 10, 12 or even 14 feet. r" (3) The fibre (lint) is fairly good, but nothing extraordinary. It doos not com pare at all with Sea Island, Egyptian, or even with Allen’s Long Staple in the above list, and would not command a higher price than the ordinary upland short staples. (4) The fibre is not remarkably strong, and is not one and a half inches long. Its length is from X to % of an inch long, averaging about of an inch. -•■■■■- (5) The Director visited and examined the 'four acres’ referred to, early in September, and estimated that a yield of IX P Br “r® might possibly be secured, with favorable future condi tions. The land on which the four acre Etch was growing has been under very ?h culture for yean and was heavily fertilized with cow droppings and com mercial fertilizers the present year; and in the opinion of the Director is capable of producing 60 bushels of corn per acre. (6) The Station testa of 1890 and 1892 of ‘Welbrn’s Pet’ and of 'Jackson's Limbless’ the present year prove that it is not *ths moot prolific cotton in the world. ’ In conclusion, the Director desires to say that this cotton is a fairly good va riety on rich soils, or under high cul ture. Mr. Wejborn says it is not suited to poor land and poor culture. For yean past he has bnen carefully developing its peculiarities with a view to fixing a variety that will be better adapted to harvesting with the Machine Harvester. Especial attention has herein been called to this so-called 'limbless’ be* cause of the> extraordinary claims that have been made for it aud the unprece dented high price asked for the seed. These claims are so apparently plausi ble that the unsuspecting and confiding farmer is liable to be induced to pay at the rate of over S2OO a bushel for the seed when the Identical same variety of seed may be had for probably less than SIOO per bushel.’’ As was intimated the final picking made a -‘material change in the rank or tome of the varieties. ,r having special reference to yields of seed cotton; so it appears in Table Na 8 that thia variety stood Bth in total yield of seed cotton per acre, gaining two points in the scale. Owing to its high per e«ntage yield of lint per cwt. of seed cotton—B7.l per cent (equalled in this respect by but one variety) it ranks third in value of total products, as' shown in Table 8. 80 much space and attention would not have been given to this sp-called “Jackson’s 'Limbless* Cotton,” but for the fact that extraordinary efforts have been made, aud are still being made, to sell the seeds at enormous prices to the unsuspecting, and sometimes easily humbugged farmer. The Director freely admits that if is a fairly’good varieqr of cotton, and Is entitled to rank with the best in point of productiveness. Its merits entitle it to consideration at • reasonable and just price for the seed, which should not be more than $1.60 per bushel, so far as can now bs judged, or equal to the prioes charged for seed of other improved varieties. The claims made by the promoters and exploiters of this scheme are preposterously ab surd and totally unsupported by the results of the carefully conducted testa made on the Station farm, as above de tailed. To illustrate: It is called "Limb less,” but most of the stalks in the Sta tion test had two or more limbs, and some of them six and eight well developed “limbs." One in particular, which was planted apart from the main test, and with ] dent/ of distance, had eight long I aud, strong “limbs” or branches. Os matured and open bolls the following is the statistics of that stalk: Main stem, 44 bolls; Ist branch, 12 bolls; 2d branch, 19 bolls; 8d branch, I boll; 4th branch, 10 bolls; sth branch, II bolls; 6th branch. 13 bolls; 7th branch, 11 bolls and ths Bth branch 8 bolls. Grand total, 129 bollt, of whioh there were on the main stem 44, and on tne 8 branches 85 bolls. But it will grow very tall and without “limbs" if closely otowded and any incipient branches be promptly pinched or pulled off, and thus pe consistent with its name— “Limb lass.” But the results of the experi ments indicate that the “Jacksonian idea” that this variety should be planted one stalk every 3 or 4 inches in order to S.ve the best results is totally fallacious. n the contrary the Director believes that better results would be secured if a distance of 4xß or 4x4 be given, pro tided of conrse the soil be rich. This would permit each stalk to attain a full development, including several long and fruitful “limba," WHERE TO GUT SEED. The Station is not prepared to supply seeds of varieties of corn and cotton. It will be evident on a moment's reflec tion that seeds produced on variety test plots must become more or less mixed by crossbreeding, and would not be true to name. This is especially so in regai d to corn, but is to some extent true of cotton. It if considered that the Sta tion should not be expected to do more than give the results of the tests and append the names and postoffice address of the parties of whom seeds of the va rieties tested were procured.

Vtatter, and tho Senate Cluutnber la Intpreaaed. The eharaoter of the present oongrom is J. Hamilton Lewis. He is a character not to be comprehended all at once. He grows upon you. It takes some time to realise how strange bo Is. His extravagance of drees and his attitude first attract atten tion. When be enters the house, no mat ter what is doing, every eye instinctively turns toward him, l|ke the eyes of the audience in a theater to the leading man when he breaks through the throng of minor notora. Mr. Lewis visits tho senate frequently. There is nothing more dramatic than his entrance into the presence of that august body. He never by any chance enters through one of the side doors. The senate may be engaged ina heated debate or deep ly absorbed in a- bewildering schedule of the tariff bill, (suddenly a sense of some thing happening comes upon every one. People in the galleries look down, and the Interest of the senate is arrested. Both the swinging doors of the main entrance at the head of the center aisle, facing the vice president, swing.open, and Mr. Lewis appears. The doors close behind him, and he stands for a moment under the arch way, his hat and gloves held in one hand in front of him, and looks toward the vice president with a slight inclination of the bead, as much as to say, Do not lot me in terrupt you. Then he looks with a sweep ing glance to the right and to the left, slightly inclining his body. He then straightens himself up and sweeps thg gal leries with a glance. By this time every eye is upon him, and, with the graceful, dainty steps of a dancing toaster, he walks over to the Democratic side of the cham ber, greeting in the most graceful manner imaginable each senator who happens to be in his path to the vacant seat he Is mak ing for. His manner of greeting is to shift his hat and gloves from his right hand to his left with a flourish, taking two steps forward, as if about to swing partners in the lancers, and then to extend his right hand, at the same time Inclining hie body gracefully and giving his hat a great sweep by his side, as the ideal cavalier trails his plume to the ground in bowing to “my lady. ” It would be impossible for him to enter Into any presence Without attracting attention, and apparently he has no inten tion of trying to do so. With his fluffy hair and whiskers, both parted in the middle, he looks like some of the portraits of Captain John Smith of about the time when he la supposed to have excited the imagination of the impression able Indian maiden. Instead of the glit tering trappings of a knight, his dress Is a display of the highest skill of the tailor, Betting off his slender form in alf its.grace ful lines and clinging to him with an affec tionate softness. His every movement ends in a posture, and with a gentle undula tion he passes from one posture to another. His voioe is music and his words flow like poetry, being reeled off 220 words to the minute.—Philadelphia Telegraph. The Gloeman. The word “gleeman” signifies "joy man,” or one who sung of joys. Doubt less the giceman’s “musical wood” rang through the scale of both joy and sorrow. The gleeman was in earliest times not only the master musician, he was the philosopher, historian, prophet and poet of his age. He could hold civil dignities such as the government of a province or of an important city. But when Christianity was introduced the gleemen were hated by the clergy and looked upon as rebels. Their duty later on was to sing the praise of their patron, to attend him and play whenever required by the courtiers or by himself. So that after a time the gleeman who stood next to the king In dignity be came in the end an obsequious dependant, flatterer and parasite. Those who did not like the court wandered about. These wan dering bards were little better than men dicants playing from house to house for a night’s lodging. Often the Saxon gleeman sang the fam ous genealogy of bls patron, the family traditions and connections. After dinner, when vhero were "song anil music together and the wood of joy was touched,” he sang these topics to the assembled feasters. The following names applied to the Saxon gleeman will indicate how many roles he could play: Poet, harper, pantomimlst, tumbler, saucy jester, ribald player, jug gler and mimic. Here is variety enough and to spare, but in all these roles he was first of all a musician.—Westminster Review. A Story of Verdi. A story Is told of Verdi touching his kindness to those around him. For some time past be has been staying in Genoa, at his palace in the Via Andrea Doria. A few days ago, while out driving, a man approached his carriage and begged to be allowed to speak. The man turned out to be the director of an obscure troop of per formers from Java, who were about to commence a series of performances at the Alfleri theater, Genoa. The director, Signor Bernard, summoned up courage to beg the great maestro to attend a spe cial representation which his troop desired to give In his honor. Verdi accepted the invitation and immediately drove to the Alfleri theater, to which no one but he was admitted. He listened with great atten tion to the primitive orchestra and watched tbe fabrication by the troop of various ob jects. A Java woman offered him a silk pocket handkerchief as a present and em broidered it for him lx gold in his pres ence. Upon leaving tbe theater Verdi said to Signor Bernard, “I thank you infinite ly for tbe pleasant half hour which you have enabled me to pass, and I wish good fortune to you all. ’i The Java troop were highly delighted with the honor paid them by the greatest of living Italian oomposera. —London News. A Flood and Poker Sufferer. “I wish you could send us a poker table,” said a resident of a little town in the north Louisiana overflow to a visitor whom he supposed to be in some way connected with the distribution of government ra tions to the flood sufferers. “Here we are playing around this darned old dry goods box, and I’m losing right along, but if I could sit at a table and get my legs under It you ought to see me win.” “What good would that do you7” "Well, I don’t exactly know. I never held out a card in all my life, and I’d sooner go broke a thousand times than raise a hand from under tbe table. But somehow I never can hold good cards when I’ve got to sit twisted around like this, with my knees rubbing up against the side of thia blamed old box. You see, the long and short of it is we’re flood sufferers, and we’re suffering for a poker table. Just you send it and don’t ask offensive,personal questions that might reflect on a gentle man’s play.”— New Orleans Tlmes-Demo erat '■ ' ' r',' * ' rz__rr see THAT THE |f ac -SIMILE ting theSiomadsaDdßowels off g I ■ —* 1 ~ ' ng Promotes’Digestion,Checrfub ncssandHesr.ContainsneiUw Opnim,Morphine nor Mineral, g jg OH TELE Not Narcotic.
