Seed Corn. It Is the nana! rule for farmers la sav ing corn sed to select that most thor oughly ripened. This. Bays a promi nent nsriculiural paper is wise, because It tecdi to mke the crop earlier, bnt it is not necewiry to make the seed grow that the corn should be glazed. Unripe corn", if thoroughly dried, will shrivel badly, but it will grow not only as quickly, but posnitly even more so, than that which has fully matured. It is easier to sulect the first ears early in the season than after harvtst, and by selecting very early the com may be so tb.criughly dried, before cold weather that it will be impossiole for cold to Injure it If moisture Is kept from it. The greater dryness of shrunken grains protects their vitality from being in jured.

Several hundred Blackfeet Sioux ar rived at Lincoln, Dakota, recently and at night held grand ghost feast .Among the curious ceremonies of the Sioux the ghost feast is bell in gTeat reverence. It will soon be abolished by order of the Indian agent, and, like the sun dance, will be buried with the tra ditions of the past. The 'east is given by the relatives of those who have died or been killed In battle. At the f ast held at Lincoln there were six ghosts. represented by six stakes about four feet in length, set up in the ground within the medicine lodge. A piece of buckskin was sewed over the top of the stakes, upon which eyes, cose, mouth. etc., were marked to represent the bead. Fifteen Indians, with the big medi cine man of the village, were seated In a teepee smoking, but rarely speaking to each other. Some live coale were brought and placed before the medicine man, who threw upon them wild sage brush, and holding some pemmicaa in the smoke chanted a song. Little ebll dren were brought in, and recelyed this meat to eat, and some had their ears pierced. The pemmlcan was also given to the others in the lodge, and some was placed at the feet of the ghost. Outside the lodge hundreds of In dians were gathered, forming groups of a dozen or so, bucks, squaws and chil dren In their respective places. All were feasted with a menu known only to Indiana. Around the outside of the medicine lodge horizontal poles were placed, and to these the presents which the ghosts were to distribute were bus-. pended, consisting of blankets, leg gings, beaded moccasins, tobacco bags, eagle feathers, etc. After remaining for some time in view, they were re moved and placed about the ghosts in the lodge. The relatives now entered the lodge to commune with the depart ed spirits, and the presents were diss tributed to the favored ones. The squaws sang and cried and made great exhibition of their grief. They cut their Gesh with knives, suffering excruciating pains without a murmur to appease the wrath of the evil spirits, so that their loved ones may be joyful in the happy hunting grounds. Upon the conclusion of the feast the lodge was taken down and the ghoete were left standing. Remarkable mil Tower. Three stories were told in BoeIou over after-dinner cigars the other day, ehowing the power of man's will. One was of a young officer In the English army who was peculiarly stubborn and Irascible. He bad been confined to his bed after a severe attack of the heart aud was unable to move. His physi cians asked one of his fellow officers to warn him that he would never get out of bed again, that he might arrange bis affairs before death. When the sick man was told what the doctor bad said he arose in bed excitedly and said : "I will never get up again, eh ? I will wclk to the doctor myseif and show him." lie jumped to the floor, walked across the room and fell dead. The ether was about a sheriff out west who, when arresting a man. was etahbed through the heart, lie seized the maa ty the shoulders after the blade had struck him, pressed him to tbe ground, drew his revolver, and de liberately thrusting it down the strug gling mau'a throat, pulled the trigger at the icrtant he himself died. The third story was regarding anoth er officer who w3 hunting down a thief. The man thought that he had given his pursuers the slip, but just aa he entered one door of a railroal car the tffcer appeared ia the other. The thief instantly fired, the bullet pene trating bis pursuer's brain. The officer returned the shot, bringing Ms man to the ground. lie then dragged himself along tha aisle of the of the car, firing as he crawled, until his revolver was empty. lie was dead when he was picked op a second after be ceared to shoot. Young Mao, Don't put much sweet stuff on paper. If you do you will hear It read In after years, when your wife has some special purittse, inflicting upon you the severest punishment known to married men. I on't be too soft. Don't say, "These little hands shall never do a stroke of work when they are mine ; " and "you shall have nothing to do in our home but to sit all day long and chirp at the canaries," aa if any sensible woman could be happy fooling away time in that style ; and a girl has a fine reten tive memory for the soft things and sil- iv promises of courtship, and occasion ally, in after years, when she is wash ing the dinner dishes or patching the west end of your trousers, she will re mind you of them in a cold, sarcastic tone of voice. Don't lie about your financial condi tion. It is very annoying for a bride who has pictured for herself a life or luxuiy in heraccastral balls to learn too late that you expect her to ask a bald headed parent who has been uniformly kind to her to take you in out of tbe cold. Landlord and Tenant. Don't take a married woman form tenant unless the laws of the State per mit her to make an executory con tract. Don't accept any shorter notice than thirty days when holding by the month. Don't let premises for illegal ose, or arrears of rent upon ejectment will tot be collectible. Don't leave your landlord trade fix tures erected by you on the premises. Don't erect a building upon founda tions sucken into the ground or it will Ucome patt Qf ia9 realty. Don't turn the premises over to the landlord until all questions of owner ship of fixtures, addition, etc., have Ueu settled in writing. I3 t try to hold b?k reut for re J Uifi tLft.-ln Ly you.

From time to time something ap pears In the public prints connecting tbe nsme of Joaqoic Miller with tbe origin of tbe word "Idaho" In which it is always claimed that tbe word in ques tlon resulted from an interview which Miller bad with Colonel Craig while both were traveling through the Ntr Terce country In the Summer of 1SC1. Miller Is said to give Colonel Craig cre dit for composing the word from ele ments found in tbe Nex Peres language and which Craig is said to have first pronounced Idaho, applying tbe word to the appearance of a neighboring mountain, upon whose summit some thing was seen to glisten like a diamond or gem. This was no doubt the origin or the Miller-Craig gem of the moun tains, but not of tbe genuine article nor tbe word "Idaho." In the spring of 1SC0, several months before tbe discovery of gold bad attract )d the "poet of the Sierras" Into the NezTerce country, a steamboat was built at the opper cascades on the Col umbia river under the ausDices of the Oregon Steam Navigation Company ; and when the steamer was launched the word Idaho appeared in its SDDrooriate place as tbe name of the vessel. Tbe definition of the word then eiven lo the world waa "gem of tbe mountains," and tbe word was then said to have been taken from tbe language of one of the Indian tribes inhabiting that pors tion of the Columbia river valley. Some efforts bave been made to find out who it was that first suggested that name for the steamer, but thus far witnout success. The steamer Idaho plied noon the waters of the Columbia durinir the spring, summer and autumn of 1SG0, and its name was quite familiar to all who traveled tbrongh the country that year. "When it became necessary to find a name for the new Territory, which was organized to March, 1863. somebody. probably baluciua Garfield. sueested the name of tbe old steamboat that had been long since used up and relegated to the "bone yard." f he Cotton Worm. That one drug house in VIcksburg should receive orders for fifteen tons, or 30,000 pounds, of paris green In one day demonstrates the extent of the ap prehension felt by the cotton planters concerning the cotton worma in the large area of country tributary to or trading with that city. With the cot ton worms so formidable Jn their second generation, the third generation, which forms a yast increase over Us progeni tors, may do very serious damage. It is extremely unfortunate, if it be true, that tbe available supyly of paris green has been already exhausted. It is like ly that far more than the amount al ready esed will be needed for a month to come. Where these pests are un checked by poison, in their third gener ation, they have been known to ravage cotton fields and leave the stalks as bare of foliage in the latter part of August and September as they are in early Feb ruary before being pulled up and burned, preparatory to the planting of a new crop. Eastern Beggars. Beggary throughout the East is a thriving profession. There are guilds beggars, besides the numerous co com munities of dervishes who are semi religious mendicants. Many families bave been beggars for generations, and and are mendicants from choice. Some of these professional beggars are actu ally wealthy. Four and-twenty years ago the writer well remembers a case. The Chief Beggar (the title was not conferred In derision) gave his daughter In mairiage to a substantial farmer, The girl's dowry consisted of two free hold houses, the rooms of which were entirely filled with dry pieces of bread, and the sales of these begged crnsts subsequently realized a considerable sum, being disposed of as food for cat tie. It must be remembered that in the East there is no organized charity, that most Mussulmans are exceedingly charitable, many giving awsy a fifth and some even a third ef their income. Under such circumstances it is not to be wondered at the professional beggar thrives. XUk for Fattening Fowls. The value of milk fox laying bens has been frequently urged and now Foultry Tard calls attention to its use for fat tening purposes. What a different taste a fine, nicely and quickly fatted fowl has, when served on the table. compared with one which has been forced to scratch for all its living, and then be consigned to the spit in any thing but a fit condition for food. Farmers realize the Importance of fat tening quickly, when feeding beeves for tbe butcher, yet many do not seem to realize the fact that what holds good with that kind of meat is equally true when -applied to fowls. Tenderness and jucinesa are results of fattening quickly, while mere ordinary flavor and want of tenderness result from letting fowls run until wanted for use on the table. The Weight or the Whale. Xilsson remarks that tbe weleht of the great Greenland or right whale is 100 tons, or 220,000 pounds equal to that of elghtyseight elephants or 440 bears. The whalebone in such a whs may be taken at 3300 pounds and the oil at from 140 to 170 tnrm Tha remains of the fosil whale which bave bees found in the coast of Ystad, in the Baltic, and even far inland in Wan- gapanse, Westergothland betoken a whale which, although not more than between fifty and sixty feet in leneth. must at least have had a body twenty. seven times larger and heavier than that of the common or right whale.

The only practical way in thlcki lady could sbow that sh wuinra dress was to show a low necked drw and to bare her arms. Jioreorer bodices were, when made low, u'tb! Balfy cut horiaontally instead of on tt bias, and the female novelists of tU last generation found uufailicg mater, ial of fun in depicting the tormenlio! erowicg girl, at evening peitiea in V endeavors to prevent their low necked frocks from slipping off their ehoutfen When a lady went to court Bhe gloried herself with a train, a tall "fanicLe'1 of plumes and as many diamandju fortune had favored her with ; other, wise the cut of her gown did Dotn terially differ from that of the ichool girl's low necked muslin freck.
