INTERESTING 1' XPERIMENTS IN CORN RAISING BY 138 MAINE BOYS.-AN EXAMPLE WORTHY OF WIDE IMITATION Stillman B. Allen, esq., for many years past in successful business in Boston, re tains a lively interest iu the place where he spent his boyhood, a quarter of a centu ry or more ago—York County, Mc. One of the ways of manifesting this interest is in stimulating the boys of the present day to observation, thought and experiment. Last spring he offered $2OO in seven prizes --one of $lOO, one of $5O, and five of $lO t - ach —to the boys in the county under 17 years of age, who should produce the most Indian corn upon one eighth of an acre. Each boy intending to compete was to send his name belore May Ist, to the President of the County Agricultural Society, who had charge of awarding the prizes. About two hundred boys reported. A committee of one or more men was appointed in each town to measure every parcel of ground, and to be present at the harvesting, husking, and weighing of the crop, and report at the Town House in Alfred en October 25. Each boy was re quired to fill out the blanks furnished, giving a full account of the time of plow. ing., planting, kind of seed corn, and full particulars as to manure, cultivation etc. (These blanks will be bound in book form by Mr. Allen, and kept in the arehieves of the County Agricultural Society for reE:renee and use) We have before us the report of Mr John Hall, President of the Society, giving a full account of the results obtained by 13S of the boys, some 75 ~ f whoa were present with their pa rents and many others, at the time of ma king the reports. 'We regret not to have been among the number to have seen the displays of the specimens of corn, and especially to have seen the bright eyed . enterprising bays. We have space for but an epitome of some of the results. The ears were reckoned at 70 lbs. for a shelled bni;1),:l of SC lbs. The average yield of the whole 138 trials was just about 100 bushels of shelled corn per acre. The first prize was award ed to Moses Milliken, of Biddeford, for 160 bushels per acre. 2d to David J. Morrell, of Cornish, 153 bushels. The nest live prizes went to A. 0 Bennett, of IVaterboro, 145 bushels; Cyrus H. Smith, of Dayton, 144 bushels; Willie B Moore , of Limerick, 142 bushels; Charlie G Austin, of Lebanon, 141 bushels ; and Arthur M Deering. of Waterboro, 140 bushe!s. Six boys raised 131 to 137 bushels per acre ; 12 raised 120 to 127 bushels; 23 produced 110 to 119 bushels; 24 produced 100 to 109 bushels—making 72 boys who grew 100 bushels and upward. 22 others produced from 90 to 99 bushel■ per acre. 29 obtained 75 to 89 bushels, and only 15 fell below 75 bushels of shell ed corn per acre. Doubtless, owing to poor soil, lack of fertilizers' etc., many of the boys getting the lesser crops were entitled to high praise for their efforts. Indeed we commend every boy who had the intelligence and spirit to enter the contest. This shows what can be done in produc ing corn in a county in Maine, lying be tween 43° and 41° of north latitude. Not having the reports before us, we cannot jtidgo as to the profit of such crops, the cost of manure, cultivation, etc., nor are we concerned as to this in the present case. The important result is the effect upon the boys themselves, and upon many other boys in the county and elsewhere. These boys were led to think, reason, observe. They will each examine into how and why this and that one succeeded better or poorer than themselves. They will be better thinkers and workers hereafter. Mr. Allen's thoughtful offer will be worth to his native county, in the far reaching' l future results, more than ten of thousands, of dollars expended in some ways that might have been selected. We heartily wish there might be a Stillman Allen for every county in the whole country ; and where there is not, we suggest that a like sum—if necessary one of the $2OO prizes often given to some fast "nag"—be ap-_ propriated by the Society to the benefit of some hundreds of youth. The boys of "17 and under" of to day, are to be the actors upon the stage a very few years hence. P. S.—Mr. Allen is so pleased with the result in York County that he now offers prizes of $2OO, $5O. and five prizes of $lO to the boys of the entire State, who shall produce the most corn from one-eighth acre daring 1880. Those not over 18 years, who desire to compete, will send their name and address to Hon. B. F. Hamilton, President Maine Agricultural Society, Biddeford, Maine.—American Ayrieultvrist, Jan. 1. RAW HIDE HORSE SHOES.—A method of shoeing horses with raw-hide has long been in use on the plains, and found so serviceable and convenient that it might doubtless be found useful in many places where th-,re are long periods of hot weath er. There are also cases frequently occur ring in which diseases of the feet might be alleviated by the temporary use of shoes cut from raw-hide or properly pre pared sole leather. With these, that por tion of the foot which needs the most pre caution, viz., the crust or walls of the hoof where it meets the sole, will be pre served from contact with hard or rough surfaces; while the frog, generally too much protected, will reach the ground and become subjected to healthful action. For warm work, upon smooth soils, free from stones and gravel, this kind of shoe well be useful during the summer season. A simple strip of raw hide or sole-leather, well tilled with hot pine tar to make it hard and waterproof, will be sufficient for general use. A more durable shoe may be made of two or more thicknesses, fastened together by copper rivets. IN all our cropping and planting we should remember that the farm is our cap ital and increasing its producing capacity means adding to our principal, while it is tz.kiurt away the "means by which we lire." c4,rottO Awful Happy. In the experiences and observations of the city missionary there are lights and shades quickly alternating, and in the most miserable homes some comfort is left, and in the saddest heart there still liogets a beam of hope. A frail despondent women, who had often to be lifted up from deep depression and urged to look for help from the loving One, would seem to realize that Jtsus was a sympathizing friend, and that lie would uphold her by His grace. But her faith was so weak that she was soon brought down again almost to despair. On one occasion she was found by the visitor weeping with apparently w very intense sorrow. She was approached with words of comfort and an inquiry as to what was the occasion of her tears. After some effort, she said : "I am so awful happy I dont't know what to do." This was re peated two or three times before she could explain that the Lord was so good to her, she could not help weeping for joy. When she came to mention the special tokens of his goodness that made so deep an impression on her mind, they proved to be just such common mercies as rthers of his children are receiving every day with little emotion, and often without any grati tude. A man and his wire, who were utterly devoid of religion, and who often drank to excess, were at length persuaded to attend a mission prayer meeting. They were frequently visited at their home, which was not a happy one, and they were pressed to accept the offers of the gospel. Their need of a saviour was repeatedly urged upon their attention, until they becama thoughtful and began in good earnest to seek the Lord. It was riot long before light dawned upon their way, and ti►e; gave their hearts to the love and practice of the truth and were received into the company of Christ's followers. They arc now active in Christian service, upholding the meetings in their neighborhood and inviting persons to Collie in. There is light in their clwelliPg, and their door is always open to all who desire to do good, and one noticeable outcome of their new lire is their love for the brethren —X. V" Observer. A Telegram from Heaven. There was a young .nan once employed as a clerk in a telegraph office in England. In some way or other God had led him to see that be was a - sinner, and this caused him great distress of mind. Like a poor lamb in the mountains, he felt that he had wandered from God's fild, and was a lost sheep. But he could not tell where to find the Shepherd, or how to get back to his fold. But Jesus, the Good Shepherd, took a singular way to find him and bring him back. The young man went to his office one morning in great distress of mind from the burden of his sins. He was lifting up his heart in secret and saying : 'God be mer ciful to me a sinner," when the click of the telegraph machine before him told him that a message was coming. He looked and saw that it was from Windermere, up among the beautiful lakes of England.— There was first the name and residence of the person to whom the telegram was sent, and then followed these words from the Bible : "Behold the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world; in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace." And then fol lowed the name of the person sending it. This was a strange message to send by telegraph. The explanation of it was this. The telegram was sent to a servant girl living in that town. She was in great distress of mind about her sins, and trying to find Jesus. She had a brother who was a Christian ; he was a servant in the fam ily of a gentleman who was spending the summer at the lakes. This poor girl had written to her brother, telling the trouble she was in, and asking him the great ques tion, "What must I do to be saved ?" Her brother had no time to write to her just then, so he sent this telegram. The poor girl found her way to Jesus through those sweet words from her brother. And so did that young man in the telegraph office. This was a telegram from heaven to him. Those precious words, "Lamb of God," "sins taken away," "redemption through His grace," brought him to Je sus, and he found peace in him. The Good Shepherd made use of the telegraph wire to bring one of his lost sheep to Himself. —Exchange. Kissed and Blessed and Given to God. BY REV. WILLIAM FULTON An aged Christian father, on the eve of his departure to the deathless land, re quested to have his little boy placed upon the bed beside him, that he might "kiss him, and bless him, and give him to God." The request was complied with, and the little boy was kissed, and blessed, and given to God by a loving father, who then said, "Now take him away ; he is no longer mine;" and soon after passed over the dark river. This little boy was spared to grow up to manhood, and by and by became the hus band of a pious and intelligent wife and the father of two or three little children. But in trying vicissitudes of this world, and the wear and tear and perplexities of life, his mind gave way ; and finally even those who loved him best were constrained to place him within the closed doors of an insane asylum, where, at this writing, be still remains. But during lucid intervals, when reason seems for a moment to gain the ascendancy, he will say, and even oc casionally write to his little daughter, have no one now to sing 'Jesus lover of my soul " GOOD pictures are great teachers A fine work of art hanging in one's Louse sl eaks to him constantly in language of tender beauty that wins its way to the heart. ONE smile for the living is worth a dozen tears for the dead.
