Old Corn Damaged in Some Sections
The ravages of bud worms have
been very disastrous to old coin in
many sections of the county. We
have been informed that some
farm? re residing near McK?udroe
would plow up their old corn, on
accoui t of the very great damage
to it by these worms, were it uot
for the good stand of peas that
they have upon the land. There
is yet time,.;howevei, in which to
recoupe the loss. The writer has
planted corn as late as July 3rd,
and it produced large ears ot good,
hard corn. Of course, it is net
advisable to wait this late, but
wheu earlier planting for various
reasous is imponsible it is reason
ably safe to plant very early in
July.

Chicken Hens Lay Golden Eggs.
Mrs. James Tunmerman, who is
a thorough-going, domestic woman
of the McKendree section, will
realize more net profit from twenty
chicken hens this year than will
most one-horse farmers realize
from their crops. Already this
good woman has sold $1S.85 worth
of eggs, $7.50 worth of young
chickens, and has now over a hun
dred chickens iu the yard that
will be placed upon the market
later. With proper attention
chicken hens, as well as the goose
in the fable, can be made to lay
golden eggs, but it is not* every
one who eau make them do it.
Very few give that close personal
attention to the poultry yard that
Mrs. Timmerman does. Those who
do always find that it pays.

eight gallons of L. & M. paiut and
six gallons of liuseed oil, which
make fourteen gallons of the best
