ments made in Eastern States, have
shown that the seed from the top end of
ears well filed out, has produced the best
results; that from the butt the next best,
and from the middle the poorest. One
farmer Who continued his experiments
ten years, found that, in seven years out
OF the ten, seed from the top of the ear
gave the best results '--.a ---2'' :
The loss every year to individual farm
ers, and the community at large, from inn
perfect seeds, is undoubtedly much,
greater than is generally supposed. There.
fore, we say to farmers, raise your own
seeds, in the most careful manner. The
gain by so doing will pay ten times the
st,-'&. Louis Jditrnat of Agricul-s

SAVE YOUR OWN SEED.

As a general thing, the farmer cannot
depend upon having good seed unless he
raises it himself; therefore, every farmer
should make it rule to raise his own
seed. If he depends upon buying. he is
constantly liable to get the seeds of nox-
ious weeds, and he often buys that which
has passed through several hands, and the
seller may not know whether it is good or
bad, old or new. The temptation is very
great to mix old seeds which have been
left over with new, and there is little doubt
that it is largely if not generally done.
This is of more consequence with some va
rieties of seed than others. The seeds of
some plants retain their vitality much
longer than others. Turnip seed will
terminate well when four or five years
old, and it is thought to be better when
two wears old than one. Melon and Gu
cumber seeds are thought to be improved
by age up to five years, at least. OF such
seeds, when an opportunity occurs to save
choice variety pure, enough should be
laid away to last five years.
The seeds of most of the grasses are of
very little value after they are two or
three years old; and if the farmer de-
ponds upon the market for his supply, he
is very liable to get old and new seeds
mixed. To have good and reliable grass
seed is of more importance than in the
case of most other seeds, because when
grass seed is sown it is usually designed
for crop to last several years, either as
meadow or pasture. II is important to
have the land perfectly set in grass in
order to get full crop and to choke out
weeds. A pasture or meadow half filled
with weeds is condition not to be toler-
ated in good farming, and weeds are sure
TO get in if the ground is not completely
occupied with grass. Therefore, SOW
good seed and plenty of it. The sure
way to have good grass seed is to raise it
yourself. 1t will pay to have piece OF
land devoted to the raising of such grass
seeds as are wanted. Any surplus will
sell readily at good prices.
In regard to all the grains, great ad
vantage may be derived from careful
selection of the best, and giving extra
cultivation for the purpose of raising
choice seeds. 1t is in this way the Nor.
way oats, Surprise oats, ETC., for which
farmers recently paid extravagant prices
were produced. Any farmer can max,
similar improvements in seeds, if he vii
take the same pains to do it. Still, there
may be an advantage in occasionally get
ting seed from distance, as it is though
that a variety will deteriorate by long con
tinued raising upon the same farm.
1t will soon be time to select seed corn
and this too many farmers neglect. TIL
best and most perfect ears should be Sc
lected from the stalks bearing NOR
than one, and these may be braid
ed together by a few husks
in suitable punches, to be hun
! up in dry place out of the way of mice
1t is not an unusual practice for farmer
to select the middle portions of the ear
of corn for seed, shelling off the tips an,
] butts for other purposes. Careful expert
