Covering Timothy Seed.

1t is mistake to harrow the surface
after either timothy or clover seed is
sown. The soil that washes over these
small seeds is sufficient covering. Even
the old practice of brushing the surface,
which used to be recommended, is
worse than useless. If the brushing is
done at all it had better be before the
seeding, 80 as to leave the surface as
smooth as possible. There will be some
depressions, and into these the grass
and clover seeds will finally be washed
by rains. If the surface is very rough
heavy rain may cover some of the
seeds too deeply.

There are some poultry-keepers who
in OTeedd their fiocks from year 10 year,
and say it is not injurious. Why
should it not be dangerous in fowls
when it is i'm the human race and in
stock of all kinds? Why is it that a
new breed generally claims that it is
unusually hard? Is it not from the
fact that new blood has been infused to
make it? Are not new breeds the re-
suits of experiments in crossing? And
is not crossing the uniting of two dis.
tinct bloods? All these matters need
serious consideration. And when we
are told by men who have made the
matter a study that in-breeding is a
constitutional danger, is it not time to
be on the lookout? If we breed from
strictly hardy parents, and if we
change blood in the males every year
or two, we get up a strain of fowls that
will replace the stock we so often get
from the yards of the noted fanciers.
We are becoming better acquainted
with this fact each season.-California

before the committee and stated their posi-
ton in regard to the matter.
On motion the four candidates were re-
Quested To retire and see If they could

This they could not do, althOpg b they were
in conference for nearly an hour and Mr.
May, when they retired to the committee
room, so reported.

Dug Up a Curious Iron BOX.

A curious iron chest has been dug up on
the water front in Brooklyn, and it has been
suggested that it might have been ut one
time the property of Capt. Kidd. This chest
and an oldrashioned bull's-eye gold watch
which was found in 1T are now in the pos
session OF John T. Frost, OF 12S Cumber-
lnad street, Brooklyn.
Mr.. Frost and his brother are in the coal
business in John street. The chest was
found while their men were building ccal
bunkers about a week ago. 1t was only
eight feet below the surface. The men broke
the lock and took out q lot Of papers,
which floated away in the breeze. They also
took out a lot OF gold, silver and copper
coin, which, 1t is said, they converted to
their own use, but the curious old watch
and the chest Mr.. Frost took.
The chest weighs about 150 pounds. On
the top is brass knob, and huge iron ham
dies are on each side of the chest 1t was
covered with rust.
The watch is made of pure gold, and
has two cases. An iron clasp is riveted on
the front case and on the back is an en-
craving which looks like a portrait but
it Is so old and worn that it is impossible
to make out just what it is.
There are many nerSons who think that
the story of the find reads like fish
story" but Mr.. Frost vouches for its au.
thenticity. The gold, silver and copper
coin has vanished, and Mr.. Frost has not
been able 10 get any of it back.
MI Frost has an idea that the box NAV
have been buried during the Reyolu.i,nary
War, when the tide did not reach SO high
as at present. 1t is also said that 1t NAV
have been part of the valuable i'm n vessel
that may have been wrecked on the spot
years ago.-New York Herald.
