Our Finances.

The people have become SO accus-
toned to the monthly reduction of
the public debt, that the statements
are received as matter Of course.
The decrease for the month of Feb'y
just passed was about seven and one
third millions of dollars, and for the
year over SIT, 000,000; and for the
two years since Grant came into
power, over $500, 100000. At the
beginning Of his term, President
Grant found debt which amounted
to $73 per head of the population.
After two years honest collection of
revenue, cooperating with and as
sisting the natural responsiveness Of
our population and resources, its
volume has been reduced to $6l per
head. The third year of the present
administration opens with a total of
public debt, including principal and
interest, and deducting the cash in
the Treasury, amounting to 81, $780,
7OS,846.92. This represents a sum
three hundred millions less than the
national debt Of France before the
war, and fully sixteen hundred mill
ions less than that of Great Britain
at the present moment. With a
population increasing at four times
the rapidity of the latter country,
and with hardly 1.-THE Of her mill
tary burdens, we ought to afford to
keep still further behind her annual
taxation than our present interval OF
about Fifty f1i!liens Eascseye. z q

Too great precaution cannot be
used in selecting and testing the seed
to be used in the planting season:
wheat should be carefully cleaned by
running several times through the
tanning mill, and "steam" enough
should be applied to the crank Of the
mill to blow out every imperfect
grain, for we take the ground
that, as a shrewd and very successful
farmer-a Scotchman-of our ac-
quaintance puts it: "If you set ducks
you are bound to hatch ducks" and
would not see an imperfect seed
planted or SOwn. 1t is a very COM
mon practice for farmers to sell their
good wheat and reserve the poor for
seed, and in case they have none that
is poor to sell all their own crop and
buy of some one who has of a poorer
quality at a lower price. Were the
very opposite of this course pursued,
there would be far less number of
crops yielding from four or five up
to ten bushels of poor wheat per
acre, and correspondingly larger
number of crops yielding from TWEEN
ty bushels up into the thirties, of
good plump grain per acre.
Corn intended for planting should
be most carefully examined and
tested before the time for using
comes; there is probably no one
other grain grown in the West upon
the seed of which so little attention
is bestowed; saved, in most cases, at
the same time the crop is harvested,
and thrown in pile in the loft of
the stable, where it receives the
dampness constantly ascending from
the animals kept below, or else put
into a box or barrel and left in any
place where it will be out of the way,
and in many places not selected at
all, except from the crib when time

without testing in the least, butts
and tips all shelled and planted
alike, and in these days it is gener-
ally done with corn planter, the
best of which will often miss if not
very carefully watched, we see no
reason to wonder why it is that so
many fields yield but from twenty
to thirty bushels Of nubbins, and soft
corn at that. We would not plant
more than one half of each ear, that
half Of course to be taken from the
center of the ear, and the utmost care
should be taken to have that half
come from ears that will grow when
planted; then, if full quantity of
seed is put in, and the plants cared
for afterwards, crop will be obtained
that it will be some satisfaction to
gather. and from which it will not
be difficult to save good seed for the
next seasons use.-Ioacd Homestead.
