A 1 was out on his run as a locomotive fireman and the train crew had a mighty cold trip. William D. Littlejohn, of Newton county, who was the judge of the corn exhibit, was very much disappointed at the display and also at the quality of tb* corn. He thinks Jasper county farmers are missing a fine opportunity when they fail to bring in corn samples and thus boost the products of the farm. He says he thinks there is great carelessness in the selection and care of seed corn, judged from what he saw, and he is of the opinion that Jasper county fanners are not as well informed About the matter of seed oorn as it would be profitable for them to be.
