In passing through Chicago I fioticed that they have electric lights, in that city, -and also have street cars on Main street; think they had just had an awful rain there, anyway Lake Michigan was almost bank full. There is no end to good things to oatj back here, and I have gained almost a quarter of a pound in five weeks, and the weather is so nice and cool that 1 am wearing my heavy clothes. This is a.great country inhabited by a good many people, most of them our relation, but Little River, Kans, is the best place on earth, Europe not excepted ever) in times of pence. Will try and get home before the watermelons {ire all gone—if .not save me a few sixty-pounders.”

MIXING AND CHANGING SEED.

By Don C. Blair,

Mixing varieties is a bad policy. It Is also a bad policy for farmers In the same neighborhood to sow different kinds of seed. It pays the graingrower to use one "pedigreed” variety of wheat, oats, barley, corn or other 'grain, and to keep It pure. Yields increase and improve in quality year after year, if the seed is carefully cleaned and gradeg each year; ani the variety establishes for the locality a reputation which is felt on the aw. ket, “Running out” is due to careless selection and poor tillage. Caro in these particulars will not only prevent it, but will, as said, improve the quality of the grain. Buying seed •very tew years, from regions having a different soil and climate, Is unwise, even if the variety is the same.

INSPECTING AND GRADING WHEAT.

Most wheat that is shipped to large terminal grain markets is graded and classified into different groups. The principal classes provided for on most markets are: Hard winter, red winter, hard spring, northern spring, durum, white winter and mixed wheats. The different grades are usually referred to as No. 1,2, A 4 and sample grade. In determining what grade should be given to any lot of wheat the following points should be considered: ’ First—Plumpness, maturity, trueness to type. Second—Condition. Third—Test weight per bushel. Fourth—Amount of weed seed, dirt and foreign material or other u Fifth—General appearance. Grading is usually done by a State Grain Inspection Department, created by law, and a fee fiw inspection M charged for that wort
