rIos.-If you did not as you have 80 often been adj
wed to do ave your seedcon by selecting the best
carr in the field don't lose anoLer Jay but 70 ut once
to your corp-cibs and pick out the handsomest ears
hat you can nd and store thon up in some dry LOTT
DO matter if it Is a very smoky one aud as hot as
July sun it won't hunt the vitality Of the seed
Ii is Of the hghest importance that your seed should
germirae imuediately after You plant It, That Is ot
more importance than carly planting termination
can undoubtedly be FASTENED by artificial means. Dr.
CEamLerlin Of Buren County, ILL.,, has made some im.
poraut discoveries in this direction. The Republican,
says:
Lat year DR.. CLamberlin Of ths place made some
practical experiments, and demonstrated that nearly
LnH the time may be saved in terminating tho seed by
the ufe Of ci lorice OF line.
Not taiihed with the success OF last year. no Is
again expeiimentipg In bis Office be has four boxes
IL the first is corn pla ted without soaking, and the
eted not terminated in the second, the seed Was
soaked in warm water, which has just commenced TO
goIunate; ia tbe third Is seed soaked III solution OF
line ard green blades just peeping from the
giouud in the fourth 10 seed soaked 10 solution OF
chloride Of lime and eopperas, la equal parts and the
blades ara now nearly tbree inches above the ground
All the seeds were plants at the same time, IN the
rame quality Of SOIL taken from the ssne Oar. The
boxes have all had equal share Of beat and light nei-
Iher allowed any advantage over the other.
"Tfis experiment should attract the attention OF
farmers We conclude from four TO six weeks may be
saved by tie use of chloride Of lime and copperas,
which Il q matter Of lao ordinary moment whea We
re- fleet that delay in the geruination Of the seed OF
two weeks frequently places the crop whiu the reach
If tie frost in the Fall. Another fact Of some I'm
portance may also DO mentioned Tss eopPoras used
IN soaking viii prevent the birds squirrels worms,
Sc, from eating the seed. >,
