FARM NOTES.
SEEDING TIMOTHY IN SPRING. — The
most common method of seeding timothy
in this State is to sow on winter grains in
autumn or spring, but preferably spring.
In my experience spring seeding has al-
ways given best results, although I have
occasionally secured a crop from sowing
with fall wheat by means of the seeder found
on most wheat drills.
For sowing timothy on winter grains in
spring I generally apply the seed with
some kind of a seeder at the rate of ten to
twelve pounds per acre when the ground is
yet frozen, usually about the middle of
March. The freezing and thawing cover
the seed by the time the weather is warm
enough to germinate it, and no further at-
tention is necessary. . Results will be sat-
isfactory if during the spring and early
summer rains are sufficiently frequent to
keep the plant growingand enable it to get
a good root growth. Should the season,
however, be dry during the fore part, re-
sults will be disappointing. This has
been notably true for the past four or five
years, and other methods had to be adopt-
ed
One that has proven quite satisfactory
is to delay the seeding until the
frost is all out of the wheat ground and the
surface is quite mellow, and go over the
field first with a light smoothing harrow.
This will cover the seed to a sufficient
depth and compact the upper layers of the
soil so that enough moisture will be re-
tained to induce germination and supply
the young plants until roots are sufficiently
developed to draw moisture from below.
It is often advisable, however, to go over
the field with a roller after harrowing.
This will further compact the soil and as-
sist in retaining the moisture. To one
who has had no experience, this har-
rowing the wheat might appear to be a bad
practice, as some of the plants are apparent-
ly torn out and roughly used. Experience
proves, however, that instead of being a
detriment, it is an advantage, resulting
from a compact of the soil or a stirring
around the roots. In a forty-acre wheat
field, half of which was treated in this
manner, and half of which was left un-
treated, the portion harrowed grew more
vigorously and produced more wheat of a
better quality than theother. Ihave tried
this for a number of seasons, and the result
has always been the same.
This method does not furnish a hay crop
the first year, and to do this I have found
that seeding timothy alone is by far the
most satisfactory method. I prepare a
piece of ground in the spring as for sowing
oats, harrow it until the surface is moder-
ately fine, then sow on the timothy seed,
and go over the field once with a smooth-
ing or brush harrow to cover it sufficiently.
if conditions are favorable a crop of hay
can be secured the first year. The young
grass sometimes cannot keep down the
weeds the first season, so when they are
six or eight inches high the field must be
gone over with a mower. Allow the tops
to remain, and they will form a mulch for
the young grass which will be greatly ben-
eficial. Some season the growth will be
sufficiently strong to keep down the weeds
after that. If, however, it is not very
vigorous, the weeds will have to be
mowed twice. With this method a hay
crop the first season must not he expected ;
but a good crop is usually obtained, and a
first-class yield will result the following
season.
The main point of sowing grass seeds of
all kinds is to have them covered just
enough to enable the young plants to get
considerable root growth before dry weath-
er comes on. This can only be done by
having a firm, compact soil and the seeds
moderately well covered. The old prac-
tice of sowing seeds on top of the ground,
plowed or unplowed, must be discontinued,
as droughts are now so frequent that the
method is wholly impracticable.
—In crossing a registered Ayrshire sire
with a registered Jersey or Guernsey the
offspring would be simply a cross bred ani-
mal, without the value which would be-
long to either parent as a pure bred ani-
mal.
Both sire and mother are from a long
line of clear, well defined tendencies in
certain directions. These tendencies are
what are known as breed characteristics,
which have been bred in and for so long
a time as to establish a prepotency in each,
contrary somewhat to the other. Where
prepotencies clash with each other, there
does not result a congenial union, or, as
we say in breeding, they do not ‘‘nick”
well.
.You would gain nothing by such a cross,
for if the calf was a male his breeding pow-
er could not be in a straight line, but
would naturally be confused. In a word,
he would have no well established prepo-
tent power, either in the Ayrshire direc-
tion or the Guernsey or Jersey direction.
We must always breed with some definite
idea of direction, purpose, result.
But the case is different when it comes
to breeding grades with thoroughbred sires.
For instance grade Ayrshire cows, when
bred to registered Jersey or Guernsey sires,
produce almost invariably most excellent
dairy cows, having good constitutions, de-
cided dairy temperament, a good long flow
of milk, with a considerable increase of
per cent. of butter fat over their mother.
In this case, the breeding potency of the
female is not so strong as that of the male,
and no warring tendency is set up. The
‘‘nick”’ is kindly and a tendency is estab-
lished for increased richness of milk, with
a little or no decrease of flow. When the
union was the other way, a registered
Ayrshire sire and grade Jersey or Guern-
sey cow, we would actually look for an in-
crease of the Ayrshire qualities in the off-
spring, because of the control of the super-
ior potency of the sire. Prepotency in
any given direction is the result of breed-
ing in a straight line for many generations.
The life currents all set in one direction.
There are no cross purposes in the blood.
For this reason every dairyman should
make it a point to have a registered bull
at the head of his herd. He should select
according to his desire. If for milk rich
in butter fat, select the Jersey or Guern-
sey.” If for large quantity of milk, and of
necessity less rich in butter fat, select
either the Holstein or Ayrshire, and keep
breeding in a straight line. Some farmers
who have never studied well these ‘‘lines of
life”” and what their results will be are
very much given to the making of ‘‘hash’’
in: their breeding. You will see them
shifting from Jersey to Holstein, then to
Guernsey or Ayrshire, with the result that
in a few years they have a lot of mongrel
cows, full of opposing tendencies, and
worth but little in any given direction.

Sigsbee Says It Was Treachery.
The Commander of the Maine Declares His Ship
Was Blown Up by Spaniards.
WASHINGTON, April 11.—The House com-
mittee on foreign affairs met at 10.30 this
morning. Captain Sigsbee, Admiral Irwin
and several experts in explosives had been
summoned to give testimony regarding the
blowing up of the Maine. Representative
Quigg, of New York, before he entered the
committee room, said that Spain would be
held responsible for the blowing up of the
Maine. He is in favor of reporting a reso-
lution instructing the President to drive
Spain from the western hemisphere. *‘I
think there should be concerted action be-
tween the Executive and the two houses of
Congress,”’ said he. ‘The President
should call both committees to the White
House this afternoon and read the message
to them. The message should hold Spain
strictly accountable, and the answer of
Congress should be a resolution directing
him to drive Spaiu from the western hem-
isphere. That resolution should be report-
ed to both houses to-morrow immediately
after the message goes in and in my opin-
ion passed without debate.”’ :
It has developed that the House commit-
tee on foreign affairs made a tentative
proposition to the Senate committee on for-
eign relations to meet in joint session to se-
cure concerted action, but up to the pres-
ent time the Senate committee has not ac-
cepted the invitation.
Captain Sigsbee, of the Maine, was the
first witness examined by the committee
on foreign affairs this morning.
BLOWN UP BY A MINE.
Captain Sigsbee, in the course of his ex-
amination before the House committee on
foreign affairs, stated it to be his opinion
that his vessel, the Maine, was blown up
by a submarine mine located by the Span-
ish authorities. As to whether it was fired
by the Spanish authorities or not he de-
clined to express an opinion. He told the
committee what he had testified to before
the board of inquiry about the buoy to
which the’ Maine was anchored being the
most unfrequeuted buoy in the harbor.
The position in which the ship was placed,
lie said, was such that he could have fired
upon both forts at the same time.
The committee is to meet again to-night
to prepare the text of the resolution to be
submitted to the House. The members of
the committee from the information they
have believe war is inevitable unless Spain
makes a square backdown. An intimation
is thrown out that a declaration of war will
not be made just yet, in any event, because
consul-general Lee has cabled that it will
require several days to get the Americans
off the island.
The foreign affairs committee of the
House at noon adjourned until to-morrow.
The members had all pledged themselves
to secrecy, the only thing they would ad-
mit being that Captain Sigsbee had been
before them. Mr. Adams, acting chair-
man, came on to the floor of the House
with a large photograph of two starving Cu-
ban girls. Members crowded about him as
he displayed it for inspection.
The Republicans of the House foreign af-
fairs committee were hurriedly called to-
gether at 3 o’clock this afternoon.

A PERFECT NEWSPAPER :
To publish all the News promptly and succinctly
and in the most readable form, without elision
or partisan bias ; to discuss its significance with
frankness, to keep an open eye for public
abuses, to give besides a complete record of cr-
rent thought, fancies and discoveries in all de-
partments of human activity in its daily editions
of from 10 to 14 pages, and to provide the whole
for its patrons at the nominal price of ONE
CENT—that was from the outset, and will con-
tinue to be the aim of “THE RECORD.”
THE PIONEER
one-cent morning newspaper in the United
States, “The Record” still leads where others
follow.
Witness its unrivaled average daily circulation
. exceeding 160,000 copies, and an average ex-
ceeding 120,000 copies for its Sunday editions,
while imitations of its plan of publication in
every important city of the country testify to
the truth of the assertion that in the quantity
and quality of its contents, and in the price at
which it is sold “The Record” has established
the standard by which excellence in journalism
must be measured.
THE DAILY EDITION
of “The Record” will be sent by mail to any
address for $3.00 per year or 25 cents per month.
THE DAILY AND SUNDAY
editions together, which will give its readers
the best and freshest information of all that is
going on in the world every day in the year, in-
cluding holidays, will be sent for $4.00 "a year,
or 35 cents per month.
