When o. S. Fowler-so the story
runs-6rst commenced the examination
of bumps, some of the students in the
New York University were disposed to
quiz him. A peculiar shaped squash was
found in the College yard, and plaster
cast was taken of it, quite closely resem-
bling the cast of human skull. This
was taken to Fowler's rooms, and he was
given to understand that the original was
closely connected with literary institu-
ton. The phrenologist took the cast in
his hand, and examined it with some
care, when bright thought struck him.
d" You need not think, young men, to

with dry leached ashes. covering the ashes
with very small quantity of earth. The
seeds were then planted on a level with
the surface of the ground. was willing
to see the experiment tried, and had no
expectation Of anything but loss of seed,
labor and soil.
But imagine my establishment, mot

remarkably thrifty, and as fine G crop Of
cucumbers as any one could wish to raise,
and they continued to bear for an unusu-

selves. If you have seed of any sort,
about which there is any question as to
its terminating powers, it is an easy mat
ter, and an important one, you should
settle the question by trying to sprout it.
One thing you may be sure Of, no editor
with common sense in his noddle, will
aver that questionable seed will grow un-
less be can see it and test it first. "a
