About Seeds.

1t is good time now, when the other
work is not urgent, to secure supply of
whatever seeds one needs for his next sea-
sons planting. Look over the old seeds
left over from previous years, and if you
have any doubt of their vitality SOW some
of them into boxes or pots of earth. and
expose them to suitable temperature in
the house or green house, or hot bed; by
counting the number of seeds planted,
and marking each sort with a tag, one
can tell, when they come up, very nearly
what per cent,of each kind of seed is good
and can regulate his seed sower when
planting accordingly.
The very best seed that can be obtained
will not all come up, and it is matter of
considerable Importance to test all seeds
that are to be planted largely, so as to
know definitely how much will come up,
and now much we ought to plant in order
to secure a good stand.
Thus with onion seed; old seed should
not be used at all, it is too slow and I'M
certain; but if we get a good article Of
last years growth about ninety per cent.
of it should come up, and we will need
TO SOW about four pounds per acre for a
full crop of onions on strong land; but
if on trial we find that for some reason,
Of the best seed we have or can buy only
seventy-fve per Scent. will come up, we
shall need to set our machine so as to
SOW five or six pounds per acre in order
to secure full stand, and so with other
seeds.
The kinds of seeds that will usually
prove good after several years keeping
are celery, squash, cucumbers, melons,
corn, grains and many others
Onion seed is one of the kinds that de-
preciates most quickly.
The seeds will not always come up as
we'll in the field as they do in our trial
pots and boxes; this is because we cannot
cover them so evenly in the field, nor cen
we control the conditions of temperature
and moisture in the field so surely as we
do in the greenhouse or hot-bed So that
IN general we shall be- safe to SOW larger
quantity of seeds than our tests show
will be needed. and If too much of it
comes up for a good crop The surplus
can be Trimmed out without much labor
this is far better than not TO have enough
plants.
Seedsmeu are often unjustly blamed for
the failure of seeds 10 come up; the con-
ditions must be right as well as the seed
good in order to insure a good result;
good seeds often fail from being covered
too deeply in spring or not deeply enough
in not weather, or from being smothered
under the heavy packing Of las soil after
a heavy rain, or from insufficient moisture
after seeding.
1t is often very provoking and a serious
loss to the farmer 10 have bis seed fail,
but before he lays all the blame on the
scotsman or wishes him i'll he should make
sure that abe difficulty does not lie in the
careless way the seeds were planted, or IN
the unfayorable condition Of the weather
at or after seeding time.
Those who lay their plans out now and
order their seeds early will be most likely
to secure the best stock the market
can afford, and will find TIE seedsmen
usually very gIad 20 Jake orders at this
season of the year before the rush and
hurry of spring trade begins. Mass

THE GIRLS POLY.
Practi al and Successful working girls

Club.
Perhaps the most complete and practi'
oa!ly successful working girls club that
has yet been organized. is one that has
beer provided through the generosity of
a good man and his devoted wife. 10 Is
in London, at the West End, in Laugham
Place, Just beyond Regent street, and adj
joining the well-known Langham hotel,
il is commonly known as the Girls
Poly, !" to distinguish it from an institu.
ton with which 1t Is closely allied. the
Young Mems Polytechnic institute, which
is universally known among young people
in London as the Poly" The more pre-
else name of the club in question Is the
Young Women's institute.
The fees for institute membership are
very small-eiRhteen pence per quarter, or
eve shillings Il 25l per year. The estab-
lishment Is open in all its parts for the
benefit Of the members, from $50 to 1000
in the evenings. The membership fee
gives free use of sltting-rooms, library,
reading and music rooms, game-rooms
recreation grounds, and numerous other
advantages, and also entities the fortunate
young women to admission at low tuition
rates TO an immense range of classes and
entertainments.
The purely club features of the place
are highly priced by the girls. II is no
small thing for them to have a bright,
cheerful establishment, that they regard
as their own, where they may resort in
the egenings, and III connection with
which they have access to so much that
is dlvertlng and instructive. It is need
less to emphasize the importance of such
privilege to anyone who knows how
the average young working men and
women of our great cities are obliged
TO live In the refreshment'rooms the
member may procure her cup OF tea and
light lunch, at a cost decidedly less than
elsewhere. And for year or more past
there has been served in the capaclous
dining rooms an excellent and substan-
tial dinner, In courses, at six pence, For
f1urpence, very good but less bOuntl-
full dinner may be had by the more
economical young woman of business.
These privileges are, Of course, limited
to members. The institute dining rooms
are vastly more pleasant than the cheap
restaurants OF lunch-roOms to which the
girls might otherwise be compelled to
resort, and the food at the institute is in
comparably better in quality and cheaper
in price All the influences of the place
are home like, wholesome, and improv-
| ing. There seems to be a tacit under
standing among the young women who
meet in these agreeable quarters that
they must be on their best behavior
must "lve up to their blue china, 30 to
speak. Albert Shaw, in February Scrib'

The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-01-21
Prom the Nyack journal.

THE PROVIDENCE News, n sprightly pepub-
lican newspaper which in few short months
has earned its way into the good graces of the
people Of New England-and many others be-
sides-has instituted a plan TO increase its pop
ularity and at the same time gain valuable in
formation for its readers. Its plan is this
The NEWS proposes TO send, at its own ex-
pense, a representative Rhode Island working
dition OF workingmen there. IL will pay all
his expenses and furnish him with guide books
and all necessary information and assistance
In laying out his route. The man is to be se-
lected by ballot by the readers OF the NEWS,
and of course he must be intelligent and able
in an occasional letter 20 express in n compre-
hensive manner the result OF his trip.
BY this course the NEWS hopes 10 learn from
an intelligent workingman the condition of
labor in a Free Trade country as compared
with its condition in this land Of Protection 10
American industries. The question Is already
an all-important one and its Importance will
increase as the great campaign OF Rapproach-
es Information gained by the NEWS In the
way suggested will carry with IL greater
weight than anything that could be written
merely from political standpoint, and the
worthy editor of that paper is 10 be commend
ed for his wise forethought in the matter.
A paper, however, which like the NEWS was
obliged 20 double its size In less than a month
after its first issue, may be expected at any
time TO advance good ideas and carry them
out
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-01-21
From The Springfield Union.

The PROVIDENCE News has made a very
liberal offer to Rhode Island workingmen, and
one that should have excellent practical re-
suits. The plan is outlined as follows;
The News proposes 10 send at its own ex-
pense a representative Rhode Island working
man tc Great Britain TO report upon the con-
dition OF workingmen there. II will pay all
his expenses and furnish him with guide
books and all necessary information and as
sistance in laying out his route. He will start
some time in May. and will have time enough
TO do great deal of siglSseeii z besides inves-
tigating huts and novels and tenements.
England and Scotland are so compact that n
great deal Of work and play, too, can be
crowded into a trip of fairly generous dura-
ton.
The choice OF the man who is 10 enjoy this
trip is left with the readers of the paper, the
only conditions being that he be one who
earns his living by daily labor and is compe-
tent and willing 20 keep those who have
chosen him to represent them informed by
sending an occasional letter to the News, Civ
ing the results of his investigations. The con-
dition of European workngmen has been de-
scribed frequently, but IL often happens that
reports are biased by the economic views OF
the writers. and the present plan should re-
suit in n report that workingmen and all
others can depend upon as substantially accu-
rate. The letters on The subject will be read
with interest and profit
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-01-21
From the Brooklyn Times.

THE PROVIDENCE News has struck a new
and valuable idea in the way of newspaper
balloting. IL offers to the bona fde wage earn
ing workman who gets most votes free trip
TO Europe, paying all his expenses and giving
him every possible facility to obtain informa-
ton and asking in return that he give through
its columns an honest and unprejudiced state
ment of the conditions Of labor as he finds It.
The offer is open TO Democrat or Republican,
free trader or protectionist, and the result OF
the fortunate explorers visit will doubtless be
a valuable contribution TO the literature of the
pending campaign.
We may add that the editor as staunch
Republican, is not taking very serious risks
from party stand point. II was just such an
exploring expedition as he invites represen-
tative Providence workman to take, that made
him one of the most earnest, as he is one of tho
ablest, advocates of protection in the United
States.
