Testing Seeds.

The farmer or gardener should test
his seeds before planting them or SOW
ing them, to see how large a proper
ton of them will germinate. We know
Of no better way to do this than to
place them between two layers Of fan
mel, which place In plate, moisten
with water and cover with another
plate, then set In warm place where
1t will not freeze nights, and keep the
flannel moist. Most Of garden seeds
should germinate in few days. Any
which do not appear within week
after the first comes may be considered
practically valueless, for although some
might be more than a week behind the
first, and yet sprout finally, where they
start so slowly they seldom make Wig
orous plants. 1t is good idea to count
the seeds put in, say 100 of each for
small seeds, and If so to S5 per cent of
them have put out good sprouts at the
end Of the test they are good seed, and
30 per cent. is very fair seed, though
we would not care to use any that did
not test up to that. OF course the time
before the first .sprout appears varies
with different seed. Lettuce might
come in three days, and some kinds Of
grass not in less than three weeks.
Carrots are said to germinate better In
the soil than under this test, and the
same may be true Of beets.-American
Cultiyator.

AS bran also contains large pro-
portion of fat and starch II does not
differ very widely from some grains,
and the only way to judge of the value
Of bran is to compare it with the price
of corn. If corn is selling at $40 per
ton and bran at SIS, the farmer should
then consider whether II would pay
him to buy bran on difference of 50
per ton, but in so doing there must be
also considered the kinds of food al
ready used, the location Of the farm,
the purposes for which the animals are
kept and the value Of the manure from
the stock. The greater amount Of pro-
tein in bran, as compared with corn,
should make 1t more suitable than corn
for cows which produce milk that is
sold daily, as large proportion Of nj
uogen is carried away in milk. There
is also gain in the mineral elements
In the use of bran, as corn Is deficient
in that respect. For young and grow
ing stock the foods that contain the
mineral elements should be preferred,
but where linseed meal and clover are
used there will be no necessity for
feeding bran. A large number of farm
ers purchase bran, and it will be to
their interests to endeavor to know
something Of the various kinds on the
market, as a falling off In the nutri-
tious elements of the bran used may
really cause it to be expensive.

His Grizzly.

| The author of "Recollections of a
Nonagenarian' says that the gigantic
sequoias, or denizens of the big Tree
Grove" in California, were discovered
by hunter named Dowd, who was
employed by a water company to pro-
cure meat for their workmen.
One day, while Dowd was pursuing
grizzly bear which he had wounded,
he suddenly came upon one of these
immense trees, and was amazed at the
sight. He forgot his bear, and stop
ping in mid-career, he stepped back
and surveyed the tree. Then he walk
ed around it and estimated its height
and circumference, after which he took
his way back to camp.
He told the men what he had seen,
but was only laughed at for his Mum
chausen story. His companions declar-
ed that the fright caused by the bear
had disordered his vision.
Subsequently he induced some of the
men to go with him, ostensibly in quest
of a wounded grizzly. Leading the
way, he was soon able to point out the
tree, and then exclaimed, There is the
grizzly spoke off,
The story soon spread, and the ex-
lstence Of the grove was ascertained.
This has since become a place of re-
sort for visitors from all parts of the
State and the land. The whole area
occupied by it is about fifty acres, and
there are nearly one hundred full
grown specimens Of the species. Twen-
ty of them exceed twenty-five feet in
diameter.

That the American ''man with the
hoe" does not flnd the life OF the farm
stultifying must surely be Inferred from
the words Of an old tIller OF the son
who came across a classical volume and
foundin Plato kindred spirit.
The good American farmer called
upon doctor, and was ushered into the
library. At once the well-fllled book
shelves drew his attention.
Are you fond Of reading?' asked the
doctor. noting the wandering gaze.
We'll, yes" returned the farmer,
modestly.
II should be pleased to lend you a
book to take home with you," said the
other. "Just take any one that you
think you'd like to read'
"Oh, I'm no good at selectin'," replied
the old man. You pick one out, doc
tor"
So tIe DOCTOR in spirit of fun, gave
the farmer a book written by Plato
The old man went his way, and at the
end of a week reappeared with the book
under his arm.
"Weil." queried the doctor. did you
read the book?"
''Yes, | did" was the emphatic an
swer.
And what did you think of itT'
at was fust-rate," responded the
farmer. "Ive read it through from
kiver to kiver. / never heard tell Of
this fellow Plato before, but all the
same. I'm glad TO find that the old chap
has been writing up some of my very
best ideas"
