~~ The stalks 171ns raise tj are very

which you do want, is made. Tall
stalks not ( nly will not produce well
themselves, but will not allow you to
make the pea vines, so necessary to
the improvement of bind, ('orn rais
ed h\ this method should never grow
<?v? r .seven and one-half feet hiirh,

if rourd.
I ?on.-.ider the final application of
nitrate of soda an esnentiul point in
this ear-making process. It should
always be applied at last plowing
ami unmixed with other fertilizers.
T am satisfied with one ear to the
?'talk unless a prolific variety ig
planted, and leave n hundred stalks
for every bushel that I expect to
make. I find the six-foot row easiest
' o cultivate without injuring fho corn.
For fifty bushels to the aero I leave
it sixteen inches apart; for seventy
five bushels to the acre, twelve in
ches apart, and for one hundred bush
els, eight inches apart. Corn should
be planted from four to six inches
below the level and hid by from four
to six inches above. No hoeing should
he necessary, and middles may bo
kept clean until time break out. by
using harrow or by running one
shovel furrow in centre of middle and
bedding on that with one or more
rounds of turn plow.
I would advise only a few acres
tried by this method the first yeor. 01
until you are familiar with its apoli
cation. Especially is it hard at first
to fully rarrv out the sfuntine process
where a whole crop is involved, and
this Is the absolutely essential part
of ?he process.
This method I have applied, o*
seen applied successfully to al'
kinds of land in thl* section, excep'
wet lands and moist bottoms, and 1
am confident it can be made of greal
benefit throughout the entire South
In the middel West, where com i:
so prolific and profitable, and where
unfortunately for us, so much of our?
has been produced, the stalk does no!
?Naturally grow large. As we com<
South its size increases, at the ex
nense of the ear, until in Cuba, and
Mexico, it is nearly all stalk (witnes*
Mexican varieties.^
The purpose of this method is t<
eliminate this tendency of corn t<
overgrowth at the expense of yield ii
''lis Southern climate.
Hy this method I have made m>
corn crop more profitable than im
cotton crop, nnd mv neighbors an?;
friends who have adopted it have
without exception, derived great ben
efit therefrom.
Plant your own poo d. T would not
advise n change of seed and method
the same year, ns you will not then
know from which you have derived
the benefit. I have used three va
fi tie* and all have done well. I have
never used this method for Inte plant
ing. In fact, I do not advise th<
late planting of corn, unless it be
necessary for cold lowlands.
The increased cost of labor am
, the high price of material and lanf
nre rapidly making farming unprofi
(able, except to those who axe getting
from one acr^ \?hat tbey former!'
got from two. We must make our
ImiuIm richer by plowing deep, plant

New York City. ? Henry W. Poor, |
one of the best known men in th^
financial district and sole member of
the Stock Exchange firm of H. W.I
Poor & Co , of No. 3 3 Wall Street,
made an assignment for the benefit
of creditors to Mark T. Cox, of the
firm of Robert Winthrop & Co. It Is
understood that the vast sums Mr.
Poor expended on his houses and the
art treasures contained In them at
Tuxedo and Par Harbor and on his
home, at No. 1 Lexington avenue,
in this city, as well as the cost of his
library, which was sold at auction
recently, had made such Inroads on
)>ls private fortune, aaid by his old
associates to have amounted at one
time to J.S.000,000, that ho was short
of available capital when the financial
storm came last year and had been
struggling to keep bla head above
water ever since.

which is playing havoc in certain scc
tions in t lio South and which in
known to physicians at* pellagra.
Pellagra appears to resemble lep
rosy in some respects, but cuds in
permanent insanity, it is said to
have been imported from Italy, but
scorns t'o be induced by eating meal
made from Kiuntty or fermented corn.
Assisfent Burgeon Lavinder, of the
hospital service, made a trip through
tint South this year and examined u
number of eases, especially in South
Carolina, where Hie epidemic i? at its
worst. In the Mount Vernon Insane
Asylum in 11)07 there were 88 eases,
57 of which ended fatally. An effort
will bo made at the coming session to
persuade Congress to appropriate
suHleient funds to enable the marine
service^ to institute a vigorous cam
paign against the disease, and it is
hoped that it can he stamped out be
fore it attains the frightful propor
tions it han reached in foreign coun
tries, especially in Italy in Koumania.

inuren to the benefit of the producer
In increasing ealoa and preventing
competition. This has been bo hi tho
case of farm machinery, clothing,
shoes, bicycles, etc., and now It la ap
parent in the safety razor field. Thou
sands of this stylo of razor have twcii
sold at from $1.60 to $5 each and giv
en satisfaction. Recently maniifac
"tur o r a have "applied more scientific
principles and improved methods in
their manufacture, and the rcBiilt Is
seen In tho "Shrp Rhavr" razor, which
is sent postpaid for twenty-five cents
In stamps by tho Ilook Publishing
House, 134 Leonard street, New
York. It is superior to any razor
sold, being bought largely by those
already owning tho highest priced
razors. Not every one knows that j
tho best results are obtained by hav- i
Ing two or three razors and alternat
ing them In use. This practice of al
ternating possibly accounts for the
vory large sale of this low priced Im
plement.
