Most farmers in New England, and to some extent in New York, have acted on this belief. Their planting of corn has been restricted for many years to what is needed for home use. Lately many of them have not grown enough even for this, and a Consider able amount of western Dent corn has been sold for stock feeding purposes to farmers who thought thoy could devote their land to more profitable uses. This may be good management so long as the western corn season is favorable. But three yoars out of four some part of the corn crop in the corn exporting states is dostroyod.

Then the farmer w'uhas depended on buying corn is obligod to pay much higher prices than the corn would cost to produce cn his own farm.

If tho corn can bo grown at home, thero will be in addition to the grain yield enough corn fodder to pay a large part of the cost of cultivation. Corn besides is a grain that does not exhaust the land as do the small grains in proportion to the bulk of its nutri' ment.

Corn is a much more certain crop to the eastern farmer than it is on the great corn areas west of the lakes. Despite the advantage of cheaper land easily tilled at the west, we believe that some corn can be grown on every eastern farm, and if used in feeding stock the farm will produce as much of everything else as it would without the corn. It is a crop that furnishes more feed per acre than can be grown with anything requiring no more labor. Corn is a crop, too, that if well cultivated is an excellent preparation for olovcr seeding. In like manner a clover ley plowed nudor makes the best preparation for a good corn or hoed crop.

Clover and corn naturally go together. Each helps the other, and the farmer who grows one without its mate loses part of the advantage that he is justly entitled to. The eastern farmer has not made too much of clover, but he needs to grow more corn. Tho two crops make a better feeding ration than either alone. Clover is a nitrogenous plant, and it haa the power of getting its nitrogon largely from the atmosphere.

Corn is a carbonaceous food, and the carbon for both its grain and stalks is exclusively taken from the atmosphere. In these two crops, then, the farmer can grow feed for stock without much soil exhaustion if he will return to the land the mineral plant food that these crops take from it. earth like a lot ot rabbits, buch tne evening snow Degan to lau quicny. nut by 9 o'clock the quietness was chimed by of them as could fled to the woods, however.

only 100 architects enterod the lists. The competition has just begun, and the architects will have four mouths at their disposal to draw up plans of thoir ideas how the buildings, the gardens and the general ornamentation of the exposition should be. "They are at liberty to pull down any or all of the existing buildings, even to demolish the Eiffel tower, which is over 1,000 foot high, If they consider it necessary for the embellishment of their plans and as consequence for the general beauty of tho fair, says Commissioner General M. Picard, "so that, notwithstanding all that has been said to the contrary since the day it was deoided upon to hold the exposition on the Bame site as the last, the fairs of 1889 and 1000 will be entirely different from an architectural point of view. Finally we do not intend to abide by the best plan and arrangement sent ia That one will obtain the highest premium, but we judges will Btndy all the plans, and we reserve to ourselves the right to take any parts of any plan, so that the final arrangement adopted will be no more nor less than the essence of tho highest expression of French modern architectural genius.

"We do not intend to start the work of bnilding the exposition until years before the opening day. We will be ooenpied during years, beginning in 1895, examining the plans and projects and drawing up our final plans and designs of all the gardens and buildings. Wo have not at our disposal an almost unlimited stretch of land, as was the cabe in Chicago. Now that it is decided to hold the fair in the interior of Paris, and in so central a locality as 1s the Champ de Mors, must do all in our power not to interfere with the enormous traffic of the city, nor and this latter item is almost as important with the habits and customs of tho Parisians. Tho blockading of any important thoroughfare would be a very serious affair, and we have in this respect to contend with many difficulties that wore unknown In Chicago.

"As to the amount of space covered by the Universal exposition, it will be about 40 hectares (00 aoreB, this being about 33 acres more than the space covered in 1889, but not so large by far as was the World's fair. So far the exposition will inolnde the Chomp de Mars, the Invalides, the Trocadero, the Palais de l'Xudustrie, the Cours-la-Beine, part of the Seine, which will be covered during tho period of the exposition, and even part of the Champs Elysees. A point that cannot fail to interest Americana, for it was a question over which much ink was spilt, is what to do with the buildings at the close of the exposition. When the play is over, the scenery must disappear." And tie commissioner general has resolved that no architect, however beautiful bis designs may be, shall be allowed to construct any but extremely light buildings, so that when all is over nobody will be tempted to clamor for the preservation of all or any of the buildings. "The general classification of the objects exhibited," continued M.

Picard, "has in all previous expositions presented moat serious anomalies. To give you but ono instance, tho departments of health and war that is to say, life and its most cruol adversary wero in ono and tho same group. In 1000 it is our intention to insure better assorted alliances and to place together products bearing close affinities. We mean to keep pace with industrial evolution.

Eastern wheatgrowers often speak of "wostern competition" and the difficulty of competing with the rich, fortile lands of the slope from the Rockies to the Mississippi. We hear little said out west about "eastern competition," and ye Rural New Yorker thinks that that is quite a Berious thing. If the old forms east of Indiana were now producing Bimply the wheat that could be grown on the natural soil, there would be little surplus, and grain growing In the for west would be profitable.

In other words, if there were no fertilizers to be had besides barnyard manure, green crops and wood ashes, there would be but few grainfields from Maine to the Alleghanies. The wheatgrower of the far west has a strong competitor in the fertilizer bag, which has enabled sections like the Genesee valley, in New York state, to produce more wheat on fewer acres than when the land was new.
