It is said that a few years practice of the system of selecting the earliest and best CTrs will produce an increase in yield and a crop that will mature much earlier, than when the too common practice ot selecting seed from the crib is resorted to. Besides, it enables the farmer to plant seed that he knows will grow, and the loss and vexation occasioned by poor seed is obviated. An ex change gives the following method for selecting seed ; Go through your corn field early, with a oag or wheel J barrow and pick the 1,. and , De5t ears, jg pjcKed as soon a dented will produce an earlier and better crop than leed com saved at time of picking crop and then in case I of early frost you are safe.

Ul. i.c u: had a little personal experience that prepares him for anything in this line, especially bii fish stories. Here is ms experience: "We c.tn believe almost any of the 'fish stories' that we are accustomed to hear nowadays, When it comes to catching clams with a trolling line, there are no impossi bilities left to be accomplished in the experience of fishiug. The other dav we were out with a party on the lower Rawhide, and as the trolling line was following along several rods becind the boat it was noticed that something had taken the hook, on which a live minnow was fastened. On being hauled in, the surprise of our crew may be imagined when it I was found that a monster clam had 'swallowed' the hook, which was g0 tightly fastened in the closed shell that it had to be pried and cut open with a knife. We are not going to theorize as to how an ungainly clam could catch a hook moving along in the water, which was here several j feet deep we have doubtless severely strained onr reputation for veracity , by simply stating the fact that he did , it but it is a tact, nevertheless, and we are now prepared to believe all the fish stories we have ever heard be- fore ! Don't attempt to "bolt" the The North Platte Telegraph gives a detailed account of the burning of the two men by prairie fire near there, which was mentioned in last week's Joubxal. The names ot the unfortu nates are eiven as Abel Alexander and Ralph Doe, employes of Dillon & Co. at their ranche. It appears that the men, in order to save some prop erty belonging to their employes, started tc ride through the corden ot fire surrounding them, but their hores becoming bewildered stopped in the very midst of it. Alexanders horse laid down, and dismounting he escaped from the flames with no very i serious burns, but in aiding Doe, who : seemed bewildered bv flame and 5moke and unable to extricate himself, he was shockingly burned, but it is thought will recover. Doe has since died, and his remains taken to his ! home in Vermont. The unfortunate voung man tatner is a district jndge of his native state, and he, poor fel low, came out here last spring to learn the cattle bo-iness, with a view of eventuallv ensr.HEins in it.

Alliance men hare hoisted their banner and predict glorious results over the nomination of Neils Olson for County Commissioner. N"ot enly Alliance men rejoice over the nom ination, but the whole community feels proud of it, and well may they, for he is as honorable and has as many friends, (I believe), as any man in the county. I noticed, in E. E. M's. commun ication to the Columbus Democrat of last week, a question asking whether Jay Gould had purchased the repub lican party or not. In answer to this I will say, "no." When we get so degenerated as E. E. M. represents us to be, we will negotiate with him to propose a plan of sale with Jay Gould in behalf of the "unprincipled, degenerated party" as he represented us in the Democrat.
