cultural scrip devoted to it contrary to
the Constitution and laws, and such leg

that the conduct Of the Trustees was in
such open and fagrant violation
Of the law and infringement OF the Con-

Of the Committee on Education Of each

Bonds nnd Banking.

y proposition by Representative Potter to
substitute two per cent, 2j-year bond for
the bonds now in existence was discussed by
the House committee on banking and cur
rency to-day. Mr.. Hunt offered a resolution
declaring that the public welfare demands
that the benefits of the national banking sys.
TEN be substantially preserved and continued
for the time being. \ member OF the COM
mlttec said to-day that the expression Of
opinion regarding Buckncr's bill, providing
for the issue of treasury notes without legal
tender quality to take the place of the bank
notes going out of existence, had been suf-
ficently general to warrant the positive pre-
diction that the bill would not receive the ap-

Testing Seeds
From the Massachusetts, riousnmau.1

From The Massachusetts Pougmlnl
During the winter months the farmer
and gardener should look over their seeds
and ascertain what they have got that are
of good quality, and decide what to buy.
1t is always best to buy seeds early. SO as
t. give time to test them. to ascertain
their terminating qualities. This is very
easily done by planting the seeds in box
OF earth kept in a warm room. What
over seeds are planted should be counted
So as to know just what proportion GER
inmates.
In testing seeds care should be taken
no. to plant too deep, especially if the
seeds be small, and care should also be
taken to keep the earth moist. but not toe
wet. 4 box six inches wide AMI twelve
inches long may be divided into eight
parts, each part of which will be three
iHchos square this will be large enough
to plant twenty-five sceds,m. Thus eight
varieties OF seeds can be tested in each
box.
The trouble of testing seeds is SO slight
that no farmer ought to neglect it. Yet
wo appreLcud that comparatively few do
IT but even when they buy seed plant
large fields without knowing the quality
OF the seed until it is too late to remedy
the evil. 1t is not only important to
know if any OF the seed will gcrminate,
but it is also important to know Just what
proportion. Ii by testingi it is found that
twenty out Of twenty-five terminate, it
may be considered very good, snd only
the usual quantity need be planted, but if
only fifteen ont of twenty-five terminate
it may be considered not very good. but
