contains the result of an examination of
different varieties of grass and clover seed
which were found on sale in the State.
Mr.. Gerald Mccarthy, Botanist to the
Station, gives the method for conducting
these seed, examinations, both as to the
purity, examination and to the ge:m:na-
ton test; showing that a given sample of
seedmay be poor, 1st, on account of the inn
purities other than pure seed present, and
I'd, owing to some of the pure seed having
no vitality will not be able to terminate.
Seed, therefore must be both pure and
vital. Of the samples examined, the
average of all, gave only sc per cent. of
pure vital seed, or in other words, nearly
one-haf or an average was of no value to
the farmer. In one case is mentioned the
presence of barely 10 per cent. of pure
vital seed. The necessity of pure seed is
apparent to all, for not only is it not de-
sirable for the farmers to lose the cost of
expensive preparation of the land, but es-
pecially is it harmful to introduce seed of
hurtful weeds as may very easily be the
case where the seed are of low grade and
consequently very impure. It is an
nounced that soon would appear a series
of articles on useful forage plants in order
to carry out in part that portion of the
State l~aw-govering the Station Ito ascer-
tain if other crops may not be a~dvantag-
eously grown on our soils" The first of
the series will be on the subject of
"Lucerne."

printed and a perusal of its pages shows
considerable literary talent.
OAK RIDGE INsTITUTE.-We have re-
ceived the very beautiful catalogue of this
noted school, and are glad to note its con-
tinued and increased prosperity. 235 stu
dents were enrolled the past year, repre-
senting seven States and two Territories.
Knowing this to be a first-class school in
all respects we do not hesitate to COM
mend it to the patronage of the people of
the South. Not the least attractive feat
ure of this popular. institution is it's splen-
did Business College, which is excelled by
none in the South.
con HORSEBACK" By Chas. Dudley
Warner: This is a neatly printed volume
of something over 800 pages which has
recently been placed upon our table by
the publishers, Messrs. Houghton, Mifain
& Co., Of Boston. 1t purports to be the
travels, experiences and observations, on
horseback, of two Northern gentleman of
more or less fastidious tastes who had
great trouble in finding, in the country,
food that suited their cultivated palates.
These gentlemen made a tour of the
mountain of Northwestern Virginia,
North Carolina and East Tennessee, TAX
ing Abingdon, Va, as their starting
point. The wild country through which
they passed is graphically and wildly de-
scribed. The cataracts and the water
courses, the trees, shrubs and flowers, the
wild game which abounds on every hand,
and the majestic mountain peaks are pic
tured in the most glowing c%olors, and the
story, as a whole, is well told and will
prove. exceedingly interesting and instruc-
tive to those who have never visited the
mountain country. The description of a
thunderstorm, witnessed from the sum-
NIT of Mt. Mitchell, is perhaps as fine a
piece of English word-pointing as the
world has ever seen. However, if the
book contained less cutting sarcasm and
ridicule of the people with whom the
travellers came in contact, and to whom
they acknowledge themselves indebted
for Inequalities, we could commend it to
the people of the South with much bet
ter grace.

quite gratifying to me to know that
we have several excellent brethren
from your State now with us aiding
and assisting in the organization of
some Of our counties. Like SO many
others of your good citizens, they
have learned, at home, something of
the wonderful advantages of our or
~ganization, and of the great. benefits
that it is now comforting upon the
farming and laboring interests of your
State. Hence. when they come here
to speak to our people they can do so
with the telling advantage of speaking
from personal knowledge OF the good
that is being accomplishing for the peo-
pie of our sister State of North Caro-
lima. We rant more OF them. Excel
lent territory is still vacant. and
we want itoccupied. Let them come,
but always and ever armed with good
testimonials. We want none but good
men and true.

to States in which exchanges have

This system of exchange having

so fully established the efficiency of
such organizations and their benefits
