Goa, washed in From sea-.


Will the sands at Small Point gIvo
mn the secret which they have so long
held is a question which company OF
determined Maine capitalists Is abor.to
solve. Small Point beach, which is
several miles long, near the mouth OF
the Kennebec river, has caused the
loss of more good hard dollars than
any similar stretch Of land on the New
England coast. For more than one
hundred years the undertow created by
n brisk northwest breeze, succeeding
an easterly storm. has brought ashore
on this beach qlahaugs, hen clans and
coal. This coal Is of very peculiar
character. and Is even more resinoua
and free burning than the English
camel coal. II has never come ashore
to any extent, however without It's
twin attendants, for nothing short OF
the violent undercurrent needed to tear
the biyalyes from their beds has been
able TO uncover and break away the
coal from the seams which must crop
out in the ocean and ordinarily lie COW
cred UP by the sand.
Pieces of smooth, plumbaginous
slate and chunks of worthless coal-like
substances have been found among the
coal drift, but so far as tradition and
knowledge go, by far the largest part
has been coal OF a uniform sort OF
kid, free burning, very resinous, OF a
remarkably peculiar fracture and gen
orally broken on one side. During the
Revolutionary War Captain William
Sprague used to pick up this coal and
use Il to harcen the face Of fiintlocks,
having been blacksmith by trade.
From Revolutionary times to the pres
ent dav certain families In that local
ity have gathered this coal for black
smithing and for fuel. Single storms
send ashore coal in quantities ranging
from several barrels to several tons.
In years past many attempts have
been made to find this coal, but as yet
none have been successful. These pre-
yious efforts have all been made by
the sinking of shafts on the shore, and
no less than $50 900 has been expended
without finding the vein. Within .
few weeks a new company OF Maine
capitalists has been formed, and this
time an effort will be made by sending
a diver to explore the bottom Of the
ocean from q point near the end OF
Small Point to Seguinc0 Island. With
dynamite he will blast the ledges on
the bottom, and carry samples to the
surface, where geologists will be In
waiting to receive and examine them
There are from fifteen to sixty feet
of water where these explorations will
take place, and II 10 estimated that the
diver, working six hours day, will b<
three weeke before he completes hii
task. Over 1000 acres OF land In thai
neighborhood have been bonded, and
Stage Island has been chosen ~ thu
base Of operations should GOAL b

THE BREEDING OF CORN.
New Agricultural Science That Fol-
lows the Same General Laws
~ Stock Breeding.

Corn breeding is modification OF
live stock breeding. and follows the
same general laws and principles. 1t
is the application of principles of plant
and animal breeding to the corn plant.
The per cent. of sugar in the sugar
beet has been increased from three per
cent. to 16 per cent. The ordinary beet
was improved by seed selection, so that
an enormous industry has been built
up and new source of sugar given to
the world. This has been done with q
plant which seeds once in two years.
Corn produces crop every year, sim
gle seed producing return OF over
thousand fold. From this great num-
Der of offspring, varying in size, shape,
color and composition, selection can
be made which will develop any feature
of the seed or plant. By continued Sc
lection, these valuable attributes can
be fixed in the characteristics of the
plant, and the usefulness and impor-
lance of the crop increased. To illus
trate the point: We have been able, by
selecting ears having long shanks, to
increase the length of the shank nearly
two feet in fiveyears' selection. By Sc
lecting ears with tall stalks, we have
been able to increase the height of the
stalk almost three feet in five years.
By selecting ears from plants having
wide leaves, we have been able to in
crease the average width Of the leaf,
and by selecting ears from stalks hav-
ing narrow leaves, we have been able
to decrease the width Of the leaf.-The

The yitaIltx OF seed..

:. Accounts of the sprouting OF seeds
after having been buried many years
ar even centuries are usually open to
doubt, but DR.. Beal has shown by re-
liable tests that IL out Of 81 species
had the power Of terminating after 20
wears. To settle the interesting ques-
ton Of extreme vitality is the purpose
Of the experiments begun by the Unit
ed States department OF agriculture.
Seeds of 100 species, including common
garden and field plants, as well as
nany grasses and weeds, have been
carefully placed in dry clay soil in pots
and buried, eight complete sets being
covered to depth Of six to eight inch
es. IL sets to 20 inches and IL sets to
three and one-half feet. A set from
each depth is to be tested at the end
OF one, two. three, five. seven, ten, Is
and 20 years, and from the two deeper
lots at the end Of 25, 800, 40 and 50
wears.
