WHEAT FOR SEED The most scrupu-

loss of millions upon millions of dollars

every farmer should have the best at

plants; and he will have no cheat or

HIDDEN TREASURE.

Gold hunters who still dream Of finding
the treasure Of Capt. Kidd sbonld read
the story that comes from Indiana and DO
encouraged. In the little town Of Eminencu
about twenty-five miles southwest of In
dianapolis. two Indians called at farmers
house early in the evening aud asked the
way TO certain tree. Proper directions
we're given and the Indians departed.
Never having seen his callers before. the
farmer was curious to know their object,
and went to the tree by short road aud
bid himself in the bushes near by. Soon
the Indians came. lantern in hand. They
dug hole in the ground on one side Of tho
tree-they seemed to know the very place
to dig-and to the blank amazemeut Of the
farmer found copper chest two feet square
opened It by the light Of the lantern. aud
took out several bags Of gold which they
at once poured into = strong sack provided
for the purpose. Astounded at the sight.
the farmer jumped from his hiding place
toward the men. but in IN Instant the
light went out. all was darkness, and the
Indians disappeared through the bushes.
lie estimates that $4,000 were found in
the chest. and il is believed the treasure
was secreted there many years ago by some
ancestor Of the Indians in his flight before
the enemy.
