AGRICULTURAL COLUMN
Change of Seed.

On this subject late number of the
Scottish Farmer remarks:
sin every instance ia which che seeds
of grain, potatoes and turnips have been
procured from distance this season, we
have noticed the immense benefit that is
evidently going to be derived from hav-
ing taken this trouble and expense. 1t is
an expense, however, that we are sure is
very soon repaid, and the farmer who
did not change his seed corn last autumn
and spring in this part of the kingdom.
must suffer loss. The poor braird of
Swedes, grown from the ll-ripened seed
of 1862, is doubtless the result of a want
of sun, as we have seen English seed
growing alongside of Scotch -ripened
seed sown the same day. and the English
crop appeared at present just worth
about double the other, As this seed is
so small. it must be Of great importance
that it should be well ripened During
the last autumn the Lothian farmers were
puzzled about their seed wheat. the crop
of 1862 was so bad looking. Many SOW
ed it, however; only about half came
up, and some fields had to be plowed up.
We know cases in which the seed crop of
1851 was used last year, and the crop is
likely 10 turn out fine. while alongside of
it wheat from the south Of England was
put in; the latter grew so well that it got
far too thick, from having all Of IL vege-
tated May not this fact account for the
small quantity of seed-corn which our
English friends can venture to seed their
land with

The following story is told of deacon

The deacon was owner and overseer of
a large pork packing establishment His
duty was to stand at the scalding trough,
watch in hand, to time the length of the
scald, crying 'Hog in when the just
slaughtered hog was to be thrown into
the trough, and '.Hog OUT when the
watch told three minutes One week

The occasion was one of unusual sole

minister preached serman well calcula-

recited to the breathless. auditory
