EARLY SEED CoRN.-We often see advertise
ments Of early seed corn Of different varilies,
which are not always to be relied upon to the
extent stated. When particular variety o.
corn Is introduced into any loclliy, it may come
two, three or even four weeks earlier than Other
Kinds hich have been cultivated in the same
region but Il the seed raised from it in success

early quality and become as late as any other
and Tor very simple reason because it ha.
adapted Itself to the climate in which il is raised
Plants have many Of tn characteristics Of ami.
mails, ard among them is that of edaption, or the
power Of acc imation. Animals often undergo an
entire change in the course of few generations,
on being removed from heir own appropriate re.
elons, and so do plants. The early corn is usual
ly brought from a more northern latitude where
the season for It's growth i. short and where it il
compelled, as it were, to rpen early in order IN
escape lross, being planted late for the same
reason Our late corr, il taken into Canada,
would, IN the course Of few years become early
corn, jest as early corn brought from the Gr
North becomes late after several years planting.
lhe only way to have early corn each season,
10 10 eblaln the seed eacs year from more
northern region--he farther north the better
Among all the varieties that have been tired,
many Of which are highly extoed, do not know
OF any that is more desirable for aJeuse AZ green
corn than the old-Gshioned sweet corn. If farm.
ers add gardeners will take the trouble to send to
oinada Tor supply Of seed (and they can do lhis
very easily aud cheaply, by uniting together and
having 1t forwarded BY express from some seeds
maa or gardener in VI nlreal,) lbey NAV then be
