BEAL, PEOFESSOR OF BOTANY, MCHIGAN AGRICCLTURAL COLLEGE. A few careful observers and ex perimenters have shown that, with the same care in all other respects, a crop may be increased from one tenth to one-half, by using the best seed adapted to the soil and cli mate. Such seeds are worth much more than the averuge farmer is likely to be willing to pay for them. Every one claims to believe in the use of good seeds, and gen erally thinks he uses no other. Very few persons appreciate the great amount of study, and care, and money, which have been em -ployed in improving the various breeds of our domestic animals. The process is a slow one, and many meet with moderate ser a:.. These men study the qualities of both pa rents, and their ancestors, and al ways have what seems to them good reasons for every step they take in breeding. In the same manner we need large numbers of skilled experi menters to improve our cereals. Principles underlie the breeding of plants as well as the breeding of animals. The results are much more rapidly obtained; the larger increase gives us a much greater chance for selecing the best. How shall the cereals be improved! Many of the processes have been again and again stated. Study the writings of Sturtevant, or a Blount, or a Hallett. Repeat what they have done, add thought to the work, and make additional experi ments. Let an enthusiastic stu dent, with practical tact, plant a piece of corn, or wheat, or other crop, on good soil, near his house, where he can easily watch it every day. Let him carefully observe the differences to be found in the same plot from the seed from the same ear. Select parents which suit, see that they are crossed, and select the seed for future use. Do not neglect the soil and culti vation. Here is a grand field for experiment-one but little worked, and one ready to reward skill and patience with a bountiful harvest -American Agriculturist for Sep. 1. CONTROLLING CONTAGIOUS DISEAsEs IN ANTMATS BY VAccINATIO.-Dr D. E. Salmon, veterinary surgeon, presents somewhat at length in the American Agriculturist for Sep tember, reasons for believing that we shall very soon come to control such contagious diseases as Pleuro pneumonia, Glanders, Anthrax, Rabies, Texas Cattle Fever, Chole ra among Hogs, Fowls, etc., by a system of inoeulation, similarly to human vaccination, for small pox He says : '- - Not to mention other facts bearing on the subject, it may be added that there seems good reason to believe that, with a mild form of virus of the different contagious diseases, we may be able, not only to ward them off by vaccination, but that we may carry the insusceptibility to the most perfect degree, and, by conferring this quality on all the breeding an imals, we may create breeds that will transmit it by heredity, and thus practically rid ourselves of the ravages caused by the animal plagues. Much research, however, is still required to settle these points, and to render the methods of vaccination practical and safe ; but with an out-look brighter than ever before it is advisable to re double our efforts in this direction, and to accomplish all that the most advanced science of the time can at tain to. We shall doubtless meet many discouragements, and be foil ed many times in our endeavors, but with determination, energy, and perseverance, success must surely crown our efforts at last, and this class of diseases which has dis couraged our most advanced thinkers, and has been shrouded in Misuantons. AS TO ADVERTISIN G. If you have goods to sell, adver tise the fact. I Hire a man with a lampblack kettle and a brush to paint your name and number on all the rail road fences. The cars go whizzing by so fast that no one can read them, to be sure, but perhaps the conductor will be obliging enough to stop the train for inquisitive passengers. Remember the fences by the roadside as well. Nothing is so attractive to the passer-by as a well-painted sign: 'Mullington's Medical Mixture for Mumps.' Have your cards on the hotel register by all means. Strangers i stopping at the hotel for the night generally buy a cigar before leaving town, and they need some inspiring literary food besides. If in advertising agent wants to advertise your business in a fancy frame at the depot, pay him about two hundred per cent. more than it is worth, and let him put it there. When a man has three quarters of a second in which to catch a train he invariably stops to read depot advertisements, and your card might take his eye. Of course the street thermometer dodge is excellent. When a man's fingers and ears are freezing, or he is puffing and 'phewing' at the heat, is the time above all others when he reads a thermometer ad vertisement. Print, in the blackest ink, a great sprawling card on all your wrapping paper. Ladies returning from a shopping tour like to be walking bulletins, and if the ink rubs off and spoils some of their finery, no matter. Don't fail to advertise in every circus programme. It will help the circus to pay their bill, and visi tors can relieve the tedium of the clown's jokes by looking over your interesting remarks about 'ten per cent. below cost.' etc. A boy with a big placard on a pole is an interesting object on the street, and lends a dignified air to your establishment. Hire a couple. Advertise on a calendar. Peo ple never look at a calendar to see what day of the month it is. They merely glance hurriedly at it so as th esr that your name is spell ed wihor without a p, that's tall. When the breezes blow, wafted ~by a paper fan in the hands of a lovely woman, 'tis well to have the air redolent with the perfume of the carmine ink in which your busi ness address is printed. This will make the market for decent fans very brisk. Patronizing every agent that shows you an advertising tablet, card, directory, dictionary, or even an advertising Bible, if one is offered at a reasonable pr-ice, shows that you know where to invest your money. But don't think of advertising in a well-established, legitimate news paper. Not for -a moment. Your advertisement would be nicely printed and would find its way into all the thrifty households of the region, where the farmer, the me chanic, the tradesman, and others, live, and into the families of the wealthy and refined-all who have articles to buy and the money with which to buy them ; and in the quiet of the evening after the news of the day has been digested, it would be read and pondered, and the next day people would come down to your store and patronize you, and keep coming in increasing numbers, and you might have to hire an extra clerk or two, move in to a larger block and more favora ble location and do a bigger busi ness ; but, of course, it would be more expensive-and bring bigger profits.-New Haven Riegister. 'Ta mikis pretty blue, land lord ?' 'Don't understand it, sir. My cow is well fed, I milk her my self, and 1I don't put water in the milk.' 'Well, the weather has been quite wet. and I reckon the cow needs shingling, that's about it.' 'Here's a fly in my soup, waiter ?' 'Yes, sir : very sorry, sir ; but you can throw awvay the .tly and eat the soup, can't you ?'
