Orientals have a very keen sense of

Last Saturday while at Mis-
souri, Valley we made inquiry
about seed wheat that isreport-
ed as rotting in the ground.
George Coulthard said the only
wheat that was rotting was
that which had been burned,
either by being stacked too
green, that is, before all the
sap had been dried out of the
straw, or that which was
threshed while wet and put in
to a close bin and not looked af-
ter. Such grain becomes heat
ed, of a reddish color and the
germ is destroyed and unfit for
seed, even with the most fav-
orable conditions. Mr.. Coulth-
arc! SAID that his Wheat was all
right as was that of his neigh
bors who had used good seed.
There is no doubt about Mr..
Coulthard's being correct in
this matter. While the condi-
tions, the unusual cold and wet,
are bad, good seed will not rot
in the ground. This experience
with seed should make the far
mer be more careful in his Sc
lection Of seed corn. The wheat
ground may yet be planted and
to corn, and that is generally a
more profitable crop. But re-
planting corn is nearly always,
poorly paid labor. Observer.
