SELECTING SEED.


All improvements in seed have been the
result Of selection. The best seed selected
for use has yielded an improved product,
andthe process again and again repeated
has finally resulted in securing the plant,
root, or grain desired. Corn has been
much improved by course of selection,
but farmers who have most at stake in this
matter are too careless to carry out exper-
iments to a final result Now, if seed
could be secured that would produce with
certainty two ears of corn to each stalk,
our corn crop would be vastly increased,
and it is pretty certain that if for success
sion of years no corn were planted but
that which produced two ears to the stalk,
the peculiarly would become fixed, and
corn having this as a Distinguishing char
acteristic would become an established
variety. What we need is that farmers
should be careful to select their seed-ears
while the corn is standing, that they may
be sure that the ears selected are perfect
in shape and filling out, early in ripening
and grow double. An improvement Of
ten per cent. only in the corn crop from
judicious selection of seed, would add {
value Of fifty millions of dollars to the ag
ricultural income of the country, and Thu
is no mean item.--HearM and Home

crater from which issued the lava when
Pompeii and Herculaneum were buried,
and from the appear ance it might not
seem improbably If such was the fact,
one side of the crater must have given

of lava, as the crater could not have been
less than two miles in diameter. The views

agreed upon, which be did not get.

site of the ancient Hefculaneum. The ex-
cavated part of this city is small. We de-
scend more than one hundred feet by
stairs into the amphitheatre, which is but
partially eXcavated, and then returning,
proceed forty or fifty rods to another part

The question might naturally be asked
why do people continue to build cities
IN such close proximity to a dangerous
volcano The danger is comparatively
little, and they do not mind it. The
same question might be asked in regard
to occupying ground and building cities
