IL The estimate of Mr.. Blaine's
strength is based generally ON such
illusory grounds as the situation in
Pennsylvania affords for contempla-
tion. we are free to say that his chali-
ces Of nomination are veryslim. We.
in tie west, are led to believe that
there is nothing loss than a cyclone Of
Haine sentiment sweeping over the
land, while the facts seem to be that
his name is being used by the machine
workers and scnemers in order to
further their own purposes, which
will prove anything but gratifying to
the historian from Maine.
1t is claimed by editor Mcclure, o.
the Philadelphia Times, that Blaine
has practically lost Pennsylvania this
year as lie lost it in 1875 and 1880.
There is only trace OF substance left
him in the glittering resolutions
which his old time foes have permit
ted the convention in that state to
award him. or six delegates at large,
not more thar. two, il 80 many, are
really and heartily for blaine, while
two were chosen in spite Of their well
known purpose to refuse obedience to
instructions
To call this choice of leading dele
gates an honest declaration for Blaine
in Pennsylvania, is to ''asstine that
there is flood tide of political idiDIs
running even above higl-water mark.
to furnish credulity eanal to the emer
gency." No more in New York, than
in his native state does it seem that
Blaine's name las any other use than
us blind, behind which his enemies
will conceal, for a time, themselves
and their designs.

farming are undoubtedly far in ad-
vance of even those of orr earlier
years, but we must not settle down
with the idea that they are perfection.
The question Of seed and seeding Is
one upon which the results of recent
experiments throw new light, and
thinking men will profit thereby.
The principle of selection has long
been recognized and appreciated by
stock breeders, and recent expert
ments by Major Hallett. F. T.. S.,
Brighton, England, show that the
same principle followed in grain rails
ing will furnish even more satisfac--
tory results. aHis system is about as
follows, he takes tue ears of the plant
Of one grain and plants Tue grains
from these ears so that each ear Occu-
pies row by itself, the grains being
placed twelve inches apart. As ma
tnrity he selects-after careful COM
pari son. the finest plant, and proceeds
as before. By this means he has
doubled the length of the ears, treb
led the contents of each ear, and in
creased the .sstooling' power-as We
term it,fvefold. These results are not
guessed at, but are those of years of
close observation and experiment.
The possibilities Of thin seeding
with selection, are worth considera-
tion. A bushel of ordinary wheat
contains 100000 grains and N ore. and,
sowing bushel and half to the
acre, there would be 1859 9,0G0 grains.
Major ualiett counted the ears on a
quarter of an acre of ground and
from this estimated the number on
the acre of an exceptionally heavy
crop at g34, 10, not nearly so many as
sown. A large proportion had been
sown uselessly therefore. 1t is said
on high authority, that if square
yard of thickly sown wheat be count
ed in the spring, it will be found that
ninety per cent of them wonl be
found missing at harvest. that is,
very many of what appear as stems in
the spring: die away before harvest
and have thus not only grown useless
ly. but. inthe struggle for existence
have starved and stunted those which
ultimately came to ears.
Five imperial pints Of waeat per
acre, planted in Single grains l2incles
x IL inches. nave yielded 67.761 ears
in excess Of those produced in an ad-
joining field from l-2bnsAel. or more
than thirteen times the seed. Of
course this crop Was hoed and cul;i.at-
ed and the question remains to be
settled Of practicability. II practical
means to put this principal into oper-
alton could be devised, il is estimated
that ST.. 500 900 could be saved yearly
in seed alone. Oae dollar and a half
per head Of the population is worth
attention.
This is the idea: now who will be
the first to carry it outs The agri.
cultural departments has done some
thing in the developement of redigree
cereals, and we may justly demand of
it greater exertions. We have all
about arrived at the conclusion that
| it is not how much, but. how well we
are cultivating. which should be the
rule Of our farming. 1t is better to
work 100 acres well than 300 careless
