What One More Knr of CJorn Would
l)i>.
Professor P. G. Holden, of Iowa,
shows what benefit to his Stato just
one more ear of corn to each hill on
every corn ileld would do. He says:
~ir one more little ear of corn to
fcnch "hill were added it would mean a
half million dollars more for every
one of the ninety-nine counties of the
State. Ten bushels more of corn to
each aero planted would make $50,<000,000
more to be added to the
t.otal of Iowa's wealth each year. Our
present average yield for Iowa is
only thirty-five bushels to the acre.
fThe rause for this poor yield is barren
seed corn, and the remedy is the testing
of every ear to be planted and the
selection of the best seed corn for
planting."

Alfalfa ami Weeds.
Ordinarily, if a farmer sows alfalfa
In the spring, lie lias his old er.pniy,
the weeds, to contend with. If the
season be damp and cloudly, the alfalfa
may not grow fast, but weeds
will. Therefore June may see him
mowing to retard a rampant growth
or weeds instead of gathering a profitable
cutting of prime hay. It is not
Improbable that he may be doing the
same in July or in September, thus
losing a whole season. Again, tho
spring preparation comes when the
farmer needs to be working his corn
and potato land, hence he is likely
to slight or neglect the careful preparation
of the alfalfa ground and so
do a poor job with, in such cases, the
usual result of a "poor stand." Then,
too, the frequent rains interfere with
regular disking and harrowing and
the weeds may obtain a start the
farmer cannot check.?Prom Coburn's

Caution About Corn,
'Several Ohio mrro-pondonts report
'hat coi'i which they expected to
wll for seed has shown such low percentages
of germination that they
cannot offer ir for that purpose. It
looks all right, but it 'Iocs not grow.
Western exchanges report that germination
tests made thus far indicate
that a very large proportion of the
>r? saved for seed will not iter
mlnale, though it is apparently very
/ good and in fine condition. A few
/ yeara ago much of the corn didn't,
look as if it would germinate and
people became very careful about
their seed corn. This year's condition
Is more dangerous, because tlio corn
is apparently sound, and farmers will
therefore believe it to he all right
'without testing it. Testing seed corn
iis so easily done, and its importance
.so great that it should become universal
practice, especially when there

{Jotting Hie Garden Ileady.
When one wishes to start a garden

And the best way to do it is to dig
out the root stocks with a fork, which
will not break them off ns does a

likely to bo more or less filled with
stones and rocks, and It is very desirable
that these should be removed
before the crops are planted.
Consequently, if you desire to have
a successful garden next season, decide
on its location this fall, get the
ground as well prepared as possible,
and leave It In such condition that
tlio freezing and thawing in tho winter
will help In giving tho soil a finely

roots of plants can grow to much better

The Jersey Cow,
A correspondent asks us how it is
that Jersey cattle are sn nroservpd In I
uniform appearance and conforma- j
tion. If our correspondent will con* 1
skier and reflect a little upon the law !
of the Jersey Island, that for a great J
number of years back in the cen- j
turles, no other cattle could bo j
brought there. Under this law the
purity as well as uniformity of the
breed has been preserved down to the
present, and this has made the Jersey ;
cow so generally regarded as the dom- !
inant butter breed of the world. In ;
his reference to some of the early im- j
portatfons to tlds country, the well !
known writer 011 Jersey cattle, Valancey
E. Fuller, says:
Like every breed, the Jersey breed
has strains or families that stand out
prominently. Ono of the first to attain
any considerable notoriety in
the olden days was that of Albert 4 4. I
' I
who was the sire cf six (laughters in |
the fourteen-pound list, the most !
famous of whom was Couch's Lily, i
who made sixteen pounds livo and \
ane-half ounces in seven days, and I
5eventy-one pounds in thirty days. I
knew Couch's Lily, and while she was
considered a great cow and a great
needer in those days, she was not 1
loted for beauty. Lady Mel 2d was
mother daughter of Albert 14, who
leservedly had a national reputation,
is she had a record of 183 pounds | i
in sixty-one davs. I miostinn if ?ii? i
ivas as well known as Couch's Lily, 1 <
md yet she should have enjcyed even i i
1 better reputation. <
And so in preserving this great 1
lairy breed constant importations are '
)t*ing made from the Jersey Island, j <

TOWN TAKES BEAUTY CURE.
C'lnroinont, N. II., Does Not Proposo
to Grow Ugly.
"People who have an idea that all

should visit Clareniont, N. H., writes
a correspondent of Country Life in
America. "A cleaner, happier, more
prosperous-looking and generally at

time by the forelock and has started
a campaign to save its old trees.
"The Claremont Board of Trade is
the active body In this case and they
took up the work last summer under
the supervision of Prof. B. S. Pickett,
horticulturist from the State College.
He came to town and made a personal

front yards. He diagnosed the ailment
of each tree needing treatment
and noted the diagnosis and recomnlpnrlprl

pared for the purpose, each tree being
numbered for identification.
"The report was classified and
studied and then placards suggesting
the needed treatment were printed
and tacked to the proper trees. The
matter of applying the cure was then
up to the ownera of the property on
which or before which the trees
stood, as in New Hampshire the municipality
has no control over the
trees except for park or highway purposes.
After the trees lmd been labelled
the horticulturist came aga?*
at the invitation of the Board of
Trade and gave a public illustrated
lecture on (lie subject of trees and
tree surgery, explaining the methods
of treatment, etc.
"At first there was noticeable a
certain amount of indifference and
inertia, but a few public-minded citizens
started in to have their trees
doctored and proved how easily and
cheaply it could lie done. Soon others
followed their example and then
the thing became contagious, and tho
man who wasn't doing a little tree
doctoring was strictly out of date.
All the trees on the town common
and around the cemetery in the middle
of the village were treated by
order of tho Selectmen, acting on
suggestions received from the Hoard

treated during the sin&le season. Tho
total cost to the board of this Fplen

How We Go
The Bible Is composed of slxty-slx
different books written by about
forty men selected and Inspired by
God. Theso Inspired men first wrote
the Old Testament scriptures in Hebrew
and the New Testament scriptures
in Graek, and our English Bible
of to-day consists of a series of translations
and revisions from the Hebrew,
Syrlac, G^eek, Latin and AngloSaxon
languages, beginning at the
tenth century.
It is estimated that thero aro in
existence at tho present timo nearly
4000 manuscripts In whole or in parts
of the Bible. All of the older and
more complete sacred manuscripts
have become available for study only
within recent years; among these a
single leaf containing a portion of
Matthew's Gospel was unearthed in
1895. This is believed to bo a full
century older than the most ancient
Greek New Testament manuscripts in
existence.
It was not until 1384 that the first
complete Bible was translated into
English by John Wycllffe. More than
a hundred years later this was followed
by a translation and revision
made by "William Tyndale, which was
the first printed Bible, all previous!

by Matthew's Blb'.o, which was aimSJ
wholly copied from Tyndale's. St'j
anotjier Bible largely based on Tflij
dale's was issued called Taverner's
Bible. Other translations and revisions
following in the next few cen '
turies were the Great Bible of Crapi- .
nier, the Geneva Bible, which is some- <
times called the Breeches Bible, and
others. 1
The King .Tames Version was a '<
translation and revision of the !
previous versions mentioned above 1
and was published In 1611. This wis '
the work of the most nromlnent solio!- <
ars of that time and was really the
first, translation into what may properly
Tie called the Knglish language.

published for the American Revision
Committee by Thomas Nelson, waa
edited by the American Revision Committee,
composed of the foremost
Biblical scholars representing all denominations.

many manuscripts were < dated
and a more penetrating studj was
made of the Vulgate, Soptuaglnt and
other versions.
wiiiuiiiiuy, as a result 01 tin ; new
knowledgo, a movemont looking
toward revision began to spread.
The work of revision was begun in
England in 1S70 and in tlie United
States in 1S7L*. It passed through
nuvny revisions by both the Knglioh
and American committees before it
was given to the world.

The American reader la no longer '
puzzled by such words as "daysman,"
"ouches," "occupiers," "bewray,"
"sodden," "clouted," "chapiter,"
"boiled," for he reads instead "umpire,"
"settings," "dealers," "mako
kvmn," "boiled," "patched," "capital"
and "in bloom." Nor will he be
misled by the modern associations of
"usury" and "temperance," for these
are displaced by "interest" and "selfcontrol"
throughout. The "arrow
snake," an animal unknown to zoology,
and owing its origin to a too
literal rendering of the German word
"pfellschlange," disappears In favor of
"dartsnak'e." And Pharaoh is no
longer compared to the fabulous
dragon, but to "a great monster."
Obscurities of phrase and idiom
which vex the reader have been re
moved from the American edition.
The term "Holy Spirit" uniformly
takes the place of the now meaningless
"'Holy Ghost." "The fat of the
kidneys of wheat" becomes "the
finest of tho wheat;" and "let us play
tho man" is certainly more intelligible
and more in accord with-modern
English idiom than "let us play the
men."
The American revisers do not hesitate
to add a few words in italics to
make a passage more perspicuous; as,
"His disciples asked Him privately.
How is it that we could not. cast It
nut?** Or nc (n tln'c vnraa ' " Thn ninro I
f/ie prophets called thorn the morn |
lliey went from them." Stylistic j
and grammatical purists no longer |
stumble at the sentence, "A fool's I
vexation is heavier than them both,"
tt the Hebraism, "Mine eye spared
hem from destroying them;" for we
liave instead: "A fool's vexation is
tieavier than they both," and "Mine
3>'e spared them, and I destroyed
:hem not." The unlearned reader
(vill think for the future more worthily-of
the householder in the parable
tvho agreed with the laborers not for
1 penny but for a shilling a day.
Finally the American edition haa
'mnroved on the King .Tames in the

lolng, impose a Christian interpreta:lon
orj tho letter of the Hebrew,
whereas the American revisers keep

Taking a glance backward along
live path we have traveled, wo cannot
but bo impressed by tho complex of i
forces, intellectual, moral and spiritual,
that have shaped the history of
the English Bible. Version after version
has been tho fruit of increased
knowledge and deeper insight, and
each on the whole has been an improvement
on its ancestors. Unwearied
industry, chivalrous en- j
tleavor, pious zeal, attended its birth
and helped it on its way through tho
centuries; nor has it lacked the consecrating
touch of martyr blood. No
artificial product created to serve tho
passions of the hour, but the vital
outgrowth of the spiritual life of a
groat people, it has continued to live
and thrive. Striking its roots ii^to a
distant past, yet not limited by it;

confidently challenge the world to
point to any existing ecclesiastical
version which approaches it in faithfulness
to the language and spirit of
Inspiration.
Then, again, the recont resurrection
of a ^reat mass of papyrus rolls from
tho soil of Egypt has added distinctly
to our knowledge of the type of Greek
in which the New Testament was
written. It used to ho thought that
tho New Testament Greek was based
upon tho Greek of tho Septuaglnt.
We now know that the sacred writers
used the common Greek of their day.
Many of their phrases and constructions,
which were supposed to ho
dialectic peculiarities, have been
found over and over again In tho re
cently discovered papyri. A study of
the Greek vernacular of the first century
marks a new epoch in our knowledge
of the grammar and language of
the New Testament.?New York
