There is something in roots thus fed
with meal, he adds, that seems to give
an animal q better appetite, and conse-
quently a greater gain than where dry
food alone is used. The animal thus
fed is not as likely to cloy in its appe-
tite as when only dry food is used.

Selection and Sowing OF Seed.

Provident farmers not only furnish
themselves with good seed, but taking
time by the forelock, make all needful
purchases in this line in ample time. so
that when the rush and hurry of the
planting season is at hand there need be
no delay. BY good seed is meant, or
should mean, not only seed that is fresh
and will readily germinate, but seed
produced from selected seed stock. 1t
is upon the quality and condition of the
seeds sown that the profits of the garden
and field most largely depend.
No farmer can afford TO risk sowing
damaged or defective seed; hence the
wisdom of testing seed previous to
planting it. 1t is comparatively small
matter to do this, as most readers know.
The terminating powers of wheat, rye,
oats and barley may be tested by sowing
some seed in garden pot-saucers or other
unglazed earthen vessels set in water
and covered with moist flannel. Glover
and grass seeds may be tested in the
same way, as indeed may garden seeds.
If the seed terminates irregularly it is a
sign that old and new seeds have been
mixed. If only small per cent. germi-
mates the seed should be, of course, dis
carded. The heaviest seed, other things
being even, is best.
The seed selected, the next considera-
ton in the cultivation of crop is the
condition of the soil. The temperature
and moisture of the ground have more
to do with the successes and failures
yearly recorded than is generally acted
upon. Wheat and barley, for instance,
while they will struggle through the
ground at the extreme temperatures of
Al degrees and 100 degrees, geIminate
most quickly-other conditions being
equal-at about "a degrees. Corn does
best at about 80 degrees, though it will
germinate at from so to 115 degrees.
The squash, bean and pea all germinate
readily at about the same temperature
as thai given for corn. Clover seed oft
en- fails because sown at time of insufli-
cient moisture, while millet, for in
stance, under similar conditions of dry
ness, will secure a good catch.
The depth of planting is another inn
portant point. The size of the seed
should regulate the depth of covering.
Corn must be placed deeper, therefore,
than the small grains, and the small
grains in turn deeper than the grass
seeds. Most farmers understand this,
but all do not vary these respective
depths to suit the different soils into
which the seeds are placed, and yet a
moments consideration makes it appar-
ent that a heavy soil which lies close to
the seed admits of slighter covering than
does a shifting sandy one Many inter-
esting experiments have been made from
time TO time to test the terminating
powers of seed under different depths of
covering From experiments showing
the termination of wheat at certain
depths in the ground it appears that
about three-fourths of the seed planted
will come up at depth of three inches,
and nearly all at from one to two inches.
These and similar facts point to the i'm
portance OF planters acquainting them
selves with the requirements of the seed
to be sown.-N y. World.
