The following sensible advice given
by the Lie Sueur Sentinel, cannot be
too often brought to the attention of
farmers:
It ought not to be necessary to state
what every farmer knows, that it is of
the highest Importance to plant good
seed If good crops are desired; and yet
what everybody knows or ought to
know is often the thing most neglect
ed. We know of several farmers in
this county who are so careful with
their seed wheat that, after cleaning
us much as possible in tanning mills,
they and their children pick over ev-
cry bushel to be soWn, and throw out
every small or imperfect grain: and
these farmers invariably have good
wheat yields if there are are any good
yields in the neighborhood or county.
Not only is it Of the utmost impor-
tance to sow clean and good wheat
and oats, but it is also important to
plant only such corn as IS known will
grow and the most perfect potatoes.
An hour even spent on cleaning enough
wheat to SOW an acre of ground will
often increase the yield from two to
four bushels per acre. No time spent
can be more profitable than that spent
in securing good, clean seed, and in
thoroughly pnlverizirg the ground to
receive it. It is just as profitable to
select the best seeds as it is ia breed
the best classes of live stock, and
changes of seed are as necessary as
changes of breeding animals.

1xEUNT THE aIL YER QUESTION.

BXEUNT THE HILV YER QUESTION.
The action taken by the house of rep
resentatives last Thursday would seem
to indicate that no change in the silver
coinage law need be expected at this
session of congress, and that the coin
ing of silver is to go on indefinitely.
Until there is enough coin in circula-
tion to supply the demand 70: change,
there should be no let up in the coming
of silver. The advocates of suspension
of coinage will do we'll to bear in mind
that the sooner this demand is supplied
the sooner will the people consent to
such suspension; and as q means to
this end the distribution of the amount
now lying idle in the treasury would
very materially tend. The treasury
department could very soon reduce the
hoard of silver now on hand # 1t ,canted
to do so. OF the members from Mime
sofa, Messrs. Wakefield, White and
Gilfillan voted against changing the
present law; Mr.. Nelson was absent,
and Mr.. Strait explained that he was
in favor Of free coinage provided the
silver dollar contained 100 cents worth
of bullion. He evidently is confused
by the plea put forth by the goldites
that silver has deprecated in value
The real fact is that the silver dollar is
scorth 100 cents. while the bullion in
the gold dollar has appreciated to 12O
cents. and if any change is made justice
would be done by reducing the amount
of coin in the gold dollar. However,
no change is necessary if the debt-p pay
ing power of silver is maintained on a
par with that of gold. Messrs. White,
Wakefield and Gllfillan have voiced the
wishes Of their constituents in this re-
spect, in spite Of the clamor of the ST..
Paul Pioneer Press and other papers of
that ilk, and are entitled to credit for
so doing. Now let congress drop the
silver question and turn its attention
to other matters.
