Theie are as many heads from one bushel of .seed to the acre as from two bush els. When a grain of wheat is put into the ground anal allowed ample room, the young plant sends out branches which strike into the ground, and from them numerous .stalks grow up, each producing more, grain in the head than are ;ver found when the single .need is so crowded that it can produce only a single stalk. t i....i.-: i.:i. ; to ,,..

Should it be ftmud true, a machine can easily be arranged j to distribute the seed in the proper quantity. The sowing should be done early enough to give the plant a chance to send out its branches and rootlets in the way indicated above. An experiment -might be tried with hand planting by any farmer who desires to test the system. Measure a plot of ground 33 feet each way; it will contain 1,0S'J square feet, or jst one-fortieth of an acre. Mark it into divisions nine inches square, of which thre will be 1,030, or 44 to each side. Then put in the J,930 grain of wheat, and if the crop amounts to one bushel r more (40 bushels or upward to the acre) Major Hallett's theory will be justified. WIk will try the ex periment? Southerners have discovered that smooth, strong and pliable parchment can be manufactured from the palmetto of Florida, and other southern states. The parch ment can be washed, rubbed and handled just like cloth, and the writing will not be effaced. It can be cheaply manufactured, and. is likely to come into general use for conveyances, land office re - ceipts. etc. As much as 00 per cent of the weight of pulmot'o cttn -be utilized in paper making.

George Eliot's Hoinola. A timely interest is given, by the death of the author, to the new edition of her masterpiece, Roum la, just issued by the American Book texohange. New York. It shows her work at the best and strongest, and at the same time gives the reader the oppoitmiity to acquire a lasting familiarity with the scenes of inedheval Italy. It is one of. the few really gteat his torical novels of the world. It is issued in Imudv and beautiful form extra cloth bindinr, simple but rare eligaucc and taste in design, and like the other issues of the literary revolution its cost is al most nominal, viz. m cents.
