sAvEYouR SEEDS.

One essential requisite for obtsin-
ing good crops is to SOW none but
GOOD seed. Manv farmers viii pre-
pare their ground well snd spend
time and labor to have it in good con-
dition. and then use imperfect or un-
clean seed, simply because they hap
pen to have none other, and dislike
paying outmoney for better article
This is shortrsighted economy. No
farmer can afford to follow such .
system.
The crop of weeds on any farm
is usually large enough. They
spring up spontaneously. Why then
prepare the ground and SOW
themf
Wheat harvest is now on hand,
and the time 10 secure good seed is
at hand also.
One of the best practical farmers
we ever knew, obtained his seed
wheat in this way.
At the time of threshing, q stout
barrel, open-at one end was placed
near the person feeding the machine
Every sheaf taken up. by him. was
raped smartly once over the edge
of the barrel, causing the full, ripe
grains to drop into the barrel. By
this means several barrels of plump
well ripened grain were obtained
none of it broken or cut with the
machine, and consequently require
ing less to be used per acre in SOW
ing
It Is certainly fact that much
wheat is injured ny being cut in
thrashing. This does not detract
much from its value for -four, but is
4 serious loss for seed, as very many
farmers do not make allowance for
that injured, hut are governed BY
the quantity they generally use per
aere.-ED.

E Farmers. a word with you on
behalf of our National Guards who
are over the border. Many of them
have left their little farms poorly
provided-with help to cut and secure
the crop on which their families
must depend for support this win
ter. The wife and little ones are
probably striving night and day to
sa, something, until the soldier re
turns from the war" But before
that time, much may be lost.
We speak only to the patriotic and
loyal, for such are always charitable
Can you not spare day in assisting
to cut and stack the little crop of
wheat, oats, or grass, on the farm of
your neighbor, who is not, by his
own fault or neglect. absent on duty?
If stacked securely, it can await his
return. Surely one day given to such
3 cause, viii yield you ten fold re-
ward. Say not that your own crop
demands your whole time. One day
deyoted to your neighbor's crop, may
save all to him. 1t cannot lose all
TO yeu. You will stlll have enough,
and to spare. Do not wait until you
are through with your own harvest
It may then be too late.
Lock around you at once, and see
where you can be most useful. The
soldier on bis return will feel CRATE
ful to you, and his wife and children,
sEthey see their little crop secured
flom destruction, will bless You as
their best friend. Let it not be said
Fof4a-Fof our loyal patriotic farmers
tn old Gsllia, that they allowed the
crcpsof their neighhor TO go to de.
struction at the very time when that
neighbor was beyond the limits of
the State, doing duty in the enemy's 8
country, and guarding the State from
an invasion, such as it was subjected
to one year ago. Ase

Confederate or rebel power, will be suffi-

II am mistaken in this, it there is no such
sentiment there, if the people of those
States are determined with the unanimty,
or with feeling approaching unanimitY.

this Confederacy, il is beyond The power
of the people ins other States to force

The contingency supposed by the great
pIedge-breaker exists, and has existed for
many months, caused in no small degree
by this mans own acts. The people of The
