Seeds and Sections.

Philadelphia Record.
There is no cereal plant grown that is not
divided into many varieties. aud each Sec
ton of the United States Is moro favorable
to some varieties than to others. The
climate and soil will even sometimes COM
pei variety To change its characteristics.
This Is demonstrated by the fact that Vir-
gInia and Kentucky. the two leading
tobacco producing States. are unable TO
compete with Pennsylvania or Connecticnt
in the productions of the varlties OF tobacco
most suitable for cigar manufacturing. If
seed from Connections Is planted In Vir-
ginia, the result Will he plants of q differ
eDt kind from those from which the seeds
were secured. the texture of the leaf, as
well as the flavor. being entirely changed.
cigar wrappers are not produced In Viz
ginla. although 1t has been attempted by
the selection of varieties for that purpose,
and tobacco from which plugs are made
cannot be produced in Connecticut of the
proper texture and flavor required.
When farmers procure their seed corn,
wheat, oats and other vegetables from cli-
mates differing from their own. in order to
secure some improved variety. they may
unlntenti0naliy make mistake that may
cause an irreparabe loss. All plants are
more or less modified 10y climate and soil,
and some plants will only thrive where
they originated. As much as 40 bushels Of
white hint corn. grown on a Southern farm.
was brought to Pennsy lvania for expert
menf. bug nc proved failure in this state.
while attempts to succeed with the Chester
comfy gourd seed corn in the South have
not been rev rded with the accomplish
ment of the object sought.
Wheats are also sublect to climatic in
fuence and it is safe To claim that nearly
every variety of wheat known has been
transferred from its original locality To
other sections; yet varieties that yield
largely in some sections meet with reyerses
in Others. The catalogue of garden veg
etabies Is n long one. and every season new
varieties are added. but there is az yet no
special vegetable that may be- styled
national" that Is, adapted to all sect ions
The general purpose" variety of any plant
is as diiiicnlt n problem 10 solve IS the
general purpose" animal. Variety is i'm
portant. but the most potent anu govern
ing factors are climate and soil.
There should be plot for testing new
varIties on all farms. Fortunately. farm
ers. class, are fraternal and commune
cative. and any Successes or failures with
varieties III neigbborhOod are made
known. This should not deter each farmer
from experimenting on his individual re.
sponsibility. however. AZ soils differ on adj
joining farms. Ii is the duty OF farmers TO
test all new varieties. as they may loose by
not 40 dong, but no farmer should make Q
radical change by substituting Q new va
riety for one that he is familiar with. and
which is we'll adapted TO his farm. until he
has tested the new variety first on an ex-
perimental plot and 10 satisfied with Its
merits and advantages

kets were dull after the first hour of the
session and closed shade lower than yes
terday. Wheat opened shade higher, in
fuenced chiefly by the decrease in the
amount on passage and the free exports
from the seaboard. But the free deliveries
in the Northwest and reports that the de-
