Planting Seeds,

Every farmer and gardener should under
stand well the requirements for the germi
nation of all seeds, namely, warmth, mois-
ture and air, but not light. The seeds of
tender plants, like beans, corn and pump
kins, require more warmth than hardy
ones, as peas and rye, and the soil must be
allowed to become warmer for them. The
amount of moisture for all should be enough
to swell them, but not to reduce the soil to
mortar. Of this there is less danger in
sandy and gravelly soils than in clay. Press
ing the mellow earth about the seeds
requires judgment. We observe that writ
ers on gardening who live in sandy and
gravelly regions urge the tread of the foot or
the pressure of the roller as indispensable,
and they are right from their standpoint.
Those who live in clayey regions recon-
mend caution, and they too are right. The
moist soil should always be well in contact
with the seed, but never SO compact as to
exclude air, as seeds buried beyond its reach
cannot terminate. If moisture could be
constantly impaired, see Is would grow rest
ing ON the surface Small seeds must have
shallow covering, large ones may be bur-
led deeper AS general rule varying with
the kind and condition of the soil, seeds
may be covered to a depth from three to five
times their diameter.

Bow Farmers in Maine.

The boy farmers are eXcelling the older
heads in farming. They have immensely
more enthusiasm, more go-ahead, and it be-
gins to look as if they know more about rails
ing large crops than their fathers do. 1t
will be remembered that over six hundred
of our Maine boys last year competed for
the Allen corn prizes, and that the larger
part of them reported having raised at the
rate of over 100 bushels of shelled corn per
acre while many raised over $50 bushels, a
few 200 bushels, and one $40 bushels.
Now, we have reports published in the
New England Farmer. of what the Vermont
farmer boys accomplished last year, in COM
peting for prizes for corn and pOtatO-raising
offered by the trustees of the Vermont
Agricultural college. One hundred and
two boys sent in reports of their corn crop
on one-eigh,h of an acre. Of these, 81
raised over so bushels of shelled corn per
acre; thirty-four raised at the rate of 100 or
more bushels; twelve, ITO bushels five
raised at the rates respectively of ia, III,
119, 121 and 122 bushels. These figures,
when compared with the average yield
of corn, in the State of Vermont which
was 20 bushels per acre in 1878, make a IA
vorable showing in favor Of the boy-farmers
as compared with the men farmers.
In Otato-raising, one hundred and five
boys reported the Yield of one-eighth of an
acre of Early Rose potatoes. OF these, for
ty-nine raised at the rate of 300 or more
bushels per acre, while five who won the
prizes, at the rate of 443, 444, $50, 457, and
459, bushels per acre,
These figures speak well for the enterprise
and skill of the boy-farmers in Vernon t.
The Vermont and Maine boys have shown
that they have enthusiasm, enterprise, and
"know thing or two'' about farming.
New England farming seems likely to fall
into safe hands when the boys take the
Naturalization Journal.

Cling awkward, twisted Fuchsia plants
which distressed me fairly. Truly, 'as the

Eggs VS.. Meat.

Would it not be wise to substitute more
eggs for meat in our daily diet? About one
third of the weight of an egg is solid nutri-
ment This is more than can be said of
meat. There are no bones, no tough pieces
that have to be laid aside. A good egg is
made up of ten parts she'll, sixty parts white
and thirty parts yolk. The white of an egg
contains sixty per cent water, the yolk fifty
two per cent. Practically an egg is animal
food, and yet there is none of the disagree
able work of the butcher necessary to obtain
it. The vegetarians of England use eggs
freely, and many of these men are eighty
and ninety years old, and have been remark
ably free from illness. Eggs are best when
cooked four minutes. This takes away the
animal tast thate is offensive to- some, but
does not harden the white or volk so as to
make them hard to digest. An egg if cook
ed veryShar is difficult of digestion except
by those of stout stomachs; such eggs
shoHld be eaten with bread and masticated
very finely. An egg spread on toast is food
fit for king, if kings deserve any better
food than anybody else, which is doubtful.
Fried eggs are less wholesome than boiled
ones. An egg dropped into hot water is not
only clean and handsome, but delicious
morsel. Most people spoil the tast of their
eggs by adding pepper and salt. A little
sweet butter is the best dressing. Eggs con-
tain much phosphorus, which is supposed to
be useful to those who use their brains
much.-Poultry Review.

He Never Heard OF ANY Having Holes in
EN- Used as Buttons.

A Third street broker in speaking or Satur-
day of tho present well-known banking firm of
A. j. Drexel & Co., and its humble origin,
told the following story of Francis Drexel, the
father of the two brothers who are now joined
in business:
Shortly after the close of the war with Next
CO many Spanish and Mexican silver dollars
found their way into the United States, and
were bought up by bankers and money-dealers
all over the country. The price paid for them
varied greatly according to the demand and
supply and the condition Of the pieces them
selves, those in perfect preservation, Of full
weight and without holes or other DETACHMENT
bringing more than those not SO well preserved.
The persons having these coins for sale carried
them about in all kinds of parcels, using in
their transportation handkerchiefs, paper
packages, old stockings, tin cans, kettles and
boxes af all sizes and descriptions.
At the close of rainy day, during which
Mr.. Drexel-then doing very modest business
broker-had been a large buyer of Mexican
silver, and while be was engaged in recount
ing his purchases preparatory to settling his
cash account, the door of his clearinghouse
was suddenly opened by plainly. dressed man,
who exclaimed: 81 only have 100 left; do you
want them?"
Mr.. Drexel, without raising his head, re-
piled: ''Ill give you so cents for them
"No," said the man, "I've sold all the others
at rs cents and only have 100 left"
Mr.. Drexel replied: 81 have bought them all
day at GO cents, and if yours have no holes in
them will take them at the same price and
that is the most you can get for them"
81 never saw any with holes in them," said
the man.
"Didnt your" said Mr.. Drexel. "Half of
what we get are full of holes, where they have
been used as buttons"
The man scratched his head moment and
then said: Every well; I'll bring them in
right away"
Five minutes afterward he appeared with
small tin kettle, and walking up to the count
er, said:
"Pour them out here" said Mr.. Drexel, in
dicatipg particular spot on the counter.
off on the floor!"
Mr.. Drexel, without removing his attention
from the counting of his purchases of the day,
called to his son Frank to "bring tray"
When the tray was brought, it was found to
have large crack across it, to which the man
strenuously objected, saying: "They will all
fall through" This nettlsd old Mr. Drexel
who told him, in rather sharp words, that
tray has held thousands and thousands of them
every day and furthermore in per-
emprory tones, babe him "pour them out
quick"
Accordingly the kettle was raised to the lev
Ell of the counter and 100 fat, raw oysters were
grin and disgust of the banker and his SON
the former of whom exclaimed: "Why, those
are oystersi''
'Well," said the oysterman (who knew
nothing about Mexican silver,) "what the -
did you think they were?'

ment; if two Or three feet, you may plant
potatoes, turnips, beans or corn among
them. For many soils and for most trees,
shallow culture answers best; and if the
soil is already in toerably mellow condition,
aplow will not be required, but an excellent
substitute be found in the Acme harrow,
which will thoroughly and rapidly pulverize
the surface, while it cannot tear up the
roots. Later in the season, the smoothing
harrow will take its place, which like the
Acme, Shares and disc harrows, pass over
the roots without tearing them.

Cultivating Orchards,

1t is only in the richest land that young
orchards can flourish without good cultiva-
ton, and as there are but few orchard soils
that possess more than ordinary fertility,
the owners should be prepared for the eariy
mellowing of the surface of the ground oc-
cupied by their young fruit trees, remem-
boring that it requires only very few years
for the entire soil to become filled with the
network OF their fibres, and anything short
of broadcast culture will not answer. A
shallow blowing in spring may be sufficient,
and cultivators and harrows do all the work
for the rest of the season. If the ground is
only moderately rich, no other crop but the
trees should occupy the ground, but if suffi-
Gently MANFRED, hoed crops may be plant
ed. The safe index for the kind of treat
ment is to examine the annual shoots of the
trees, and if found less than a foot long it
will be seen that they want better treat
