PREPARING. SEED CORN.

A very good thing we find in the
Journal Of Hgricultare, respecting the
preparation of seed corn before it is
planted, and il is all the better and moe
reliable because it is the result of an ex-
periment-an experiment which, we
are confident, many OF our readers will
try for themselves.
Says the correspondent of that jour
nal:
In October, 1889, turned over a
piece of green sward. In the spring
manured it highly with green manure
from the barn yard, ploughed it about
the usual depth, and narrowed it tho
roughly. then marked the rows north
and south, planting three and half
feet apart, by drawing cham.
My seed was stepped six hours in a
solution Of chloride of lime, and drop
ped three kernels in the hill-the bills
eighteen inches apart in the row. In
each hill was dropped small handful
OF compost made OF plaster, unleachrd
ashes, end hen manure-say two and 4
half bushels of plaster three of hen ma
nure, and eight of ashes. The hen ma
nure was taken dry and pulverlzed, and
mixed with the other ingredients in a
dry state, and applied in that condition.
The corn was covered one inch deep.
The corn came up quickly, and grew
with great vigor, and | had an excellent
crop, estimated at eighty bushels to the
acre.
10 determine the value of the chlor.
lde OF lime and the compost supplied to
the hill, planted two rows through the
middle of the field with the same seed
and in the same manure, with the omis-
sion OF the soaking and the compost.
The difference was visible at a glance,
through the season; and in harvesting
and weighing the produce on adjacent
rows, found that the rows planted with
dry corn and without the compost,
yielded fitty-seven pounds less to the
row than the other-makinga difference
In sixty-lour rows-one,an half acres
of 1868 lbs., or So bushels, or about
35 bushels to the acre. should add al
SO, that besides the great difference in
the quantity, the corn from the stepped
seed, manurcd with compost, is vastly
better than the other, and worth much
more pound for pound.

THOROUGH TILLAGE.

J. Redmond of York county, argues
in favor of thorough tlIage which next
to, and indeed equal to manure, should
be impressed upon the mind OF every
farmer. He justly says:
"One of the great elements of fartili-
zation in soils, is the perfect loosening
of them, SO that the different ingredi-
ents comprising them, be thoroughly
incorporated, and brought to the surface
and thus receive the advantages Of ex-
posure TO the sun and atmosphere. None
but simpleton would pretend to doubt
the value of manure or assert the posi-
bilitv of growing good crops for any
length of time without it, but he scarce
]y wiser who believes (and manifests his
belief in this daily practice) that his
crops will be abundant where his tillage
Is mcagrc.-Show me the husbandman
whose plowingis shallow-whose break
ing of the clods preparatory to seeding
is impertectly done-whose fields are
strangers to the roller, and look very
much as though the harrow and culisa-
tor had never been used upon them, and
will show you poor fields fields that
will scarcely pay for the labor and ex-
pense, much less leave any profit be-
hind"

PLANTING POTATOES.

Almost every farmer, nowadays,
adopts the practice of cutting his pota-
toes for seed in order 10 economise cost.
Some cut the tubers into as many pie
ces as there are "eyes" in the potatoe,
and allow from one to three pieces to a
hill. Others divide the roots in the
centre, pressing the knife through them
longitudinally, and one half potatoe
onl y to hill. Quarters are also used -
Now itmay not be generally known that
there are two distinct parts to the pota-
toe, and that the apex or end which pre-
sents number of small eyes, will pro-
duce crop earlier by some ten or ff-
teen days than the middle Or body part.
The produce of the latter however, is
always superior in point of size, while
that Of the butt or naval is inferior, the
eyes beng imperfectIy developed or i'm
mature. In selecting roots for seed,
the preference should always be given
TO the largest, soundest and most sym.
mctrical, as large weIl-tormed roots will
produce, better progeny than those of
more diminutive ch aracter. Having
made your selection, cut of the seed ends
then the butts, and divide the middle in
to sections; the two pieces being sulIi-
cient for a ''hill."-lf you are desirous
TO have early potatoes, for use, or for
marketing; plant your seed ends. Feed
the butts to your swine or cattle, and at
ter allowing your middles to remain
spread out on a dry floor for a fortnight
to heat the wounds, plant them, and the
result will be liberal and healthy crop
Of Well.lorned and good sized roots.

must be the maker or marrer of his own

depends upon patrons of the noblest and

Of fortune, the founders of families, and
never can disaproint or desert you.
They control all human dealings and
turn even vici$sltudes of an unfortunate
tendency to the contrary nature. You
