iow is the time for farmers to
select their seed corn. 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. Seed sav
ed green mast be husked &Q.d hang up
at once, a lying "prith tbe busk on or
lying on a board after husked will
. iniure it. Mast not hang near stable
or manure pile, pr oyer wheat bin as
j the heat and gas will injure it. On
j limbs of trees, on wire or in any
empty enn is gooa. omoKing is ex
cellent to keep it from worms or
squirrels. Try at least one bushel
along side of late seed for experiment.

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

Jay Gould had purchased the repub

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
