SELECTION IN sRRD GROWING

Farmers as a rule do not exercise
sufficient care in the selection Of seed
bearing plants. Nature has endowed
animals and plants with two antagon,
advantage OF he could either deteriorate
or improve the varieties given him
This specific called atavism
in which each individual, animal or
vegetable, has a tendency to retro
grade, or stimulate the characteristics
OF it's remote ancestors, can be easily
verified by anyone at all conversant
with the laws Of natural selection
Who has not seen examples OF this ten
dency in both the animal and vegetable
worio2 Who has not observed this
same manifestation in poultry, live
stock and gardens The sickly, scaly-
legged, long necked, measly hen our
forefathers had, that could fly like a
hawk and scratch up more seed than
one could SOW with q scoop shovel, is
an example of the former, while every
farmer knows that if he uses the same
sire for his stock year after year and
does not grade up by natural and com
mon sense sleection, his stock will ulti
mately prove to him that if he sows
the wind he will reap the whirlwind.
As this inherited tendency manitests
itself in animal life, so does it in still
greater degree display its inherent
quality in the vegetable world. The
radish that persists in sending up it's
seed stalk with no root to fulfill its
purpose Of planting-to crafty the
cravings of our famished milliOns-is
but one of the illustrations of this Law
in vegetable life.

TRICKS AND SCHEMES.
Leeches That TnjuTe the Real Worth of
Agricultural Fairs

agricultural Fairs.
It gives US much satisfaction, to copy
and commend, the following very just
criticism of one departments of fair
management.
Wherever large numbers of people
gather, a class of persons is usually
found who make living by deceiVing
the public. They have schemes and
tricks innumarable, that appear to be
easy and simple; but in reality, they
are quite diff cult, and in some cases
impossible, to successfully perform.
They have wheels and machines, that
are doctored, to turn as the proprietor
may wish to make them. They have
cocoenut headed negro dodgers, to
arouse the brutality in men and boys.
They have tented shows, which are
disgusting in coarseness and vulgarity.
Among the throngs at agricultural
fairs, these Ieeches are cut of place.
They contribute nothing helpful or
good. They do not add to the attrac
ton of the fair. They do not bring de-
sifabIe patrons. They do not swell the
gate receipts.
They are not patronized by intelli
gent patrons of the fair. They are not
wanted by honest farmers. They are
Stunned with fear by thoughtful pa.
rents. Because of their presence, even
the fair is not patronized by many of
our best citizens families.
The harm accomplished by these

comes he goes to his cellar or Dit, selects
the seed that is in accordance with his
idea Of what potato should be and it
is planted. He proceeds to his wheat
bin, carefully recleans, measures out
the F. q Tired number of bushels, and it
is sown. In other commodities he ex
ercises the same care in the selection
of seed. Is this right Is it science0
What is the pedigree Of that seeds
Perhaps the ear OF corn saved is the
fret good ear found in long line of
descent; prolifcness and thriftiness
may have never been a feature Of it's
ancestral life. Among the potatoes
selected for seed, he has, no doubt,
selected seed that single tu0er would
represent the whole contents of hill.
The plant was likely enough a weak,
spindling vine that could barely stand
the strain it was compelled to bear.
What do you think Of selecting such
seed for propagation7 In his seed
wheat he screens out the chess, the
cookie, the weed seeds and the shrunk
en- grains; this is something in the
right direction, but did he screen out
the kernels that came from poorly de-
veloped heads3 No.
Observe the results obtained in the
grading and breeding up of our common
garden crop. The cabbage which
grows wild in western Europe, with its
small bundle of leaves without even
the semblance OF a head, the wild beets
Of the Mediterranean vicinity, the wild
potatoes and tomatoes Of our tropical
sister country, South America, are all
prototypes Of the achievements man
has performed through the power of
correct breeding and judicious selec
ton. The place to select seed is In the
field where it grows and the first object
in view should be thriftiness and free
dom from disease. When found, it
should come up toyour idea of what a ty-
pical plant should be, should be studied
externally as we'll as internally that it
may be identified d anywhere. In select
ing seed OF corn or other grain crops,
let your idea be thrifty, healthy, good
form, we'll balanced, large amount of
grain to small amount of waste. II po
tatoes, or tubers of like character are
! to be selected, do so before they are
dug; pick out and mark the thriftiest
and stOckiest plants; when dug, note
the contsnts; if large, well formed and
prolific, save them if only few small
ones or only one or two large ones, re
ject them. Do this, farmers, take a
little more carein the selection of seed,
and if you will, and not spend so much
time and money in the purchase and
trial OF new varieties, you will soon
have a strain of seeds that will more
than repay for time spent and will
more than meet your most sanguine
expectations.-W. 81. Sherbius, Cass

A NEW TOBACCO PEST.

Prof Mccarthy, Entomologist of the
North Carolina Station, announces the
discovery of a new tobacco pest in the
Gelechia picipelis. The insect is not
new, being found wherever the bull
nettle grows, upon which it commonly
feeds, having only recently acquired
the tobacco habit Prof Mccarthy
describes it as about two tenths of an
inch long, and with wing expansion Of
from three fourths to half an inch. The
general color is yellowish gray, the
head and chest paler than the wings,
the primaries marked by few smoky
streaks, and marginal row of minute
black dots. It belongs to the same
family as the cloths and fur-moths, and
to the fly Weevil, 30 destructive to
cribbed corn.
The most promising remedy at pres
ent, Prof. Mccarthy adds, is the extir-
patton Of the bull-nettle in all tobacco
growing sections, and the prompt
ploughing under or removal of tobacco
atumps as soon as the crop is gathered.
Clean cultivation of the growing crop,
with frequent stirring of the soil
close up to the plants, will destroy
the dormant pupae or cover them
90 deep that the mothwiIl be
unable to find it's way to the
surface of the ground. A close watch
should be kept and when blotch mines
are seen on leaves, the inclosed cater
pillar may be easily crushed between
the thumb and finger. The leaves will
then soon repair the damage. Trap
lights burnt in the field from dusk un-
til 10 o'clock p. m. will attract and de.
stroy large numbers of the moth

Every farmer should keep poultry.
Open up an account with your hens.
The farmer should keep only the best
breeds. He has unlimited range for
them, and this is conducive to health
and best results in rearing the young.
He produces at frat cost every neces-
sary food product that goes to keep q
flock during tho year, and no one who
desires to purchase eggs for Matching
would ever buy of breeder who keeps
his fowls penned up if he knew where
he could get eggs from farm kept

For drinking purposes some persons
give their fowls milk instead of water.
Speaking Of this custom, an exchange
says: Never give your fowls or chicks
milk in any form to drink 1t is a
waste of your very best food. The
fowls or chicks. as may be, waste and
throw it about, soiling themselves and
the ground. It sours in the heat and
both the stock and their surroundings
scatter disease. Use the milk to mix

renew our oft repeated suggestion this
fall as to the propriety of restricting
the area Of fall-sown grain, because al
most every one seems bound to increase
his sowing, and if the weather should
be favorable throughout the grain belts
of the world next year, the crop might
be largely overproduced and cause low
prices.-American Agriculturist.
