To Keep Seed Pure.

WE have the oft repeated testimony
of many farmers, who have tried the
experiment, that changing the locality
of seed increases the productiveness of
many kind of crops. 1t is therefore
reasonable (although the why and
wherefore is not generally understood)
that there is something in it, although.
after all, think that equally good if
not better results may be obtained by
judicious system of selection, culture
and rotation on different sections of the
same farm. 1t is my opinion, corrobo-
rated by experience and observation,
that q system of selecting seed and
planting only the most perfect of its
kind, would obviate all difficulty and
complaint of poor crops and seed, aris-
ing from this source. For example, in
planting potatoes, plant none less in size
(and those whole) than hens egg, and
no overgrown tubers, and follow this
with a regular rotation, not growing
related crops on the same ground oft
ener than once in three to five years.
Select the best, most perfect kernels of
wheat, sowing only such; also the best
and most perfect of all kinds of seeds,
taking pains to save from the best repre-.
sentatives of the variety. Instead 0:
deterioration, as we often hear, improve
ment in both quantity and quality will
then result. ! know farmers who, in
stead of pursuing such a course, sell the
best because it brings better price in
market, and then they go to others for
seed, or plant such as is left of their own
after the best is disposed of. and then
complain that their crops deteriorate,
whereas, had they pursued the course
indicated above, in few years their
crops, as well as their purses, would
greatly improve Cor. Country Gentle

red button of rank and opulence upon
their caps. After the ceremonies they
settled down to easy chit-chat and SEEM
ed to bubble over with humor and wit,
which, of course, was lost on our unedu-
Gated ears, but was greeted by shouts of
applause by them. The next amusing
thing was the waiter, who was so much
inflated with the awfulness of the occa-
sion that he would swell into the room
with an immense server, holding it as if
bent to the ground with the weight of
good things, in the center of which
would repose, like an Island in mid
ocean, q single sauce-dish of rice and
meat.
From this place we meandered up the
alleys and saw the dens where they
chit at the joint and saw rooms ten
by twelve, where were in hunks swung
one above another sleeping twenty hu-
man beings. The foulness and filth of
these Chinese quarters can not be de-
scribed. We could appreciate the joke
told by policeman who accompanied
us of a Chinaman who died in hot
weather and remained two weeks before
he discovered him. He excused himself
on the ground that he 6 had not noticed
any difference in the smell of the house. :"

Preachers and Health.

THE New York correspondent of the
Troy Times writes: 'Our preachers
as profession are very healthy, and it
is for this reason that the death of
Adams has occasioned such general no.
tice. 1t is looked on as an unusual
thing for preacher to be laid up from
work. Life insurance companies al
ways prefer risks on this class, and per-
haps their temperate habits have much
to do with their Longevity. Looking at
the profession, the following brief re-
cord may be given: Among the Bap-
fists William r. Williams stands promi-
nent. He-has been preaching for more
than forty years, and is now seventy-six.
Vermilye, the senior Reformed Dutch
pastor is seventy-seven. Fifty-five years
have elapsed since his ordination. The
senior Tying is now in his eighty-first
year, and it is fifty-nine years since he
entered the ministry. These men be-
long to the retired list. There are.
however, instances of working clergy
who have reached a mature age. Ell
bert S. Porter, of the Reformed Church.
is sixty. Ormiston is but year young
er, and Chambers is sixty-one."

Thieves Nailed Up in a Car.

WHEN the 10 o'clock incoming train
of the Hudson River Railroad stopped
at Tarrytown yesterday morning, the
conductor, John Burke, discovered that
the hasp on the door of one car was
broken. He called a brakemen, and,
on examination, found several other
cars broken open. Sliding back the
door of the last car, which contained
potatoes, he saw three heads. He closed
the door quickly, and, sending for a
hammer and nails, nailed it up securely.
The train then proceeded to this city,
and at Fifty-first street it stopped and
was boarded by Policeman Tennis and
Tracy. They were informed by the
conductor that three burglars were
nailed up in one of the cars. At the
depot in Thirty-third Streetit was found
that the prisoners had cut a hole over a
foot large in the side OF the car with
knives, thus hoping to escape. 1t took
the officers over an hour to release
them from the car, so firmly had it
been fastened. A crowd of over a thou
sand persons followed the trio to the
Twenty-second Precinct Station-house.
There they described themselves as
George Ashley and Thomas Ashley, of
Greenbush, n. Y, and John Burke, of
East Albany. Thomas was only thir-
teen years of age, but the other two
were young men. They are suspected
of being members of band of car
thieves.-Nea0 York Herald.
