THE SEED CORN TEST.

THE SEED CORN TEST.
There Is probably no field Of agri-
cultural effort which Is Just now re-
ceiving greater measure Of attention
than that having to do with the select
ing and testing Of seed corn. For
weeks past the seed corn gospel trains
have been making their trips through
the corn belt Of the central western
states, giving to hundreds and thou
sands Of farmers the salient points on
this very important subject. Professor
Holden Of the Iowa State Agricultural
college, who Is the originator Of the
corn gospel idea, is experimenting one
Of these trains. For the benefit Of those
who may not be able to take advantage
Of the lectures given by these corn ex-
perts we give below condensed de-
scription of this method of testing
corn:
The most practical way for testing
the termination Of each ear is by using
a termination box. This is simple
affair and can be made by any one in
an hours time. Any box about six
inches deep and by feet in size may
be used. Fill the box about half full
Of moist sand, dirt or sawdust, well
pressed down, 80 that 1t will leave
smooth, even surface. In case saw
dust Is used it should be put in a gun
ny sack and set in a tub Of warm wa
ter for half an hour, SO that it will be
thoroughly moistened before using.
Take white cloth about the size of the
box and rule it off checkerboard fash
ion one and half inches each way.
Number the checks 1, 2, 3, and so on,
and place it over the sawdust and tack
to the box at the corners and edges.
Lay out the ears to be tested side by
side on the floor; remove one kernel
from near the butt, middle and tip of
the ear; turn the ear over and remove
three kernels from the opposite side, in
like manner, making six kernels in all,
thus securing sample from the entire
ear. Place the six kernels at the end
Of the ear from which they were taken.
Use care that the kernels do not get
mixed with the kernels from the ear
next to 1t. After the kernels are re-
moved boards may be laid over the
rows Of corn to keep them in place
until the termination Is known. Place
the kernels from ear Of corn No. in
square No. of the termination box,
from ear No. 2 in square No. 2, and so
on with all the ears. Then place over
this cloth considerably larger than
the box; cover with about two inches of
moist sand, dirt or sawdust and keep in
warm place 80 that it will not freeze.
The sitting room will perhaps be the
most suitable place. The kernels will
terminate in four to six days. Then
remove the cover carefully to avoid
lnisplacing the kernels in the squares.
ca piece of thin cloth placed over the
kernels before the covering is put on
will prevent the kernels from sticking
10 the upper Govern Examine the ker-
nels in the termination box. For ex-
ample the kernels in squares Nos. 1,
II and 20 have failed to grow, and
some of the kernels In squares Nos. Q, g.
4, 8, IL and 15 have refused to grow or
show weak termination. The. CORE
spending ears should be rejected. The
ears showing weak termination should
be treated the same as worthless ears.

A lady friend who is very success
full raiser of poultry told us recently
that the worst enemy she had to cope
with now in the poultry business was
the crows; that these birds had become
so numerous and bold that they would
destroy all eggs laid by the hens on the
outskirts of the farm homestead and
kill more little chickens than twenty
hawks. There is no doubt about the
that it eats some grubs in the fields is
no sort Of excuse for having it around
the premises. Unceasing war should
be made on both the crow and the
sparrow.

FACTS ABOUT NITRO CULTURES.

Such extravagant and misleading
claims have recently been made rela-
tive to the value of inoculating mate
rial for legumes that the department Of
agriculture has issued circular sum-
marizing the limitations and value of
the nitro cultures. The experiments
carried on under supervision of the
government show that no beneficial re-
suits can be expected for particular
crop If the bacteria Of that crop are
already in the soil; that but little bene-
fit can be expected from their use If
the ground is decidedly in need Of
other fertilizers, such as phosphates,
potash or lime, and that but little If
any benefit can be derived from inocu-
lation if the soil is already rich in
nitrogen. A test Of samples of nitro
gen fixing bacteria obtained in the
open market showed that many Of the
cultures We're in worthless condition,
while many Of those whose condition
was good were badly contaminated
with foreign bacteria, molds and
yeasts. While the circular does not
say so, this bacteria business would
seem to be an agricultural fad that
has been badly overworked.

A HOG CHOLERA PREVENTIVE.

Leading farmers in a county in a
western state claim that the hog
cholera plague has been practically
and effectually stamped out in the fol-
lowing very simple manner. Inasmuch
as the plan is an inexpensive one, in
volving no outlay for high priced medi-
cines or veterinary attendance, we give
it for what it is worth. 1t is a well
known fact that the ordinary proce-
dure when cholera breaks out in drove
Of hogs is to take the infected animals
out of the pen or lot in which the drove
has been quartered. The plan under
discussion is reversal Of the common
practice-provides for the removal of
the well hogs to entirely new quarters.
In view Of the fact that veterinarians
are we'll agreed that the disease
spreads through infection, well ami
mails becoming contaminated by the
saliva, sputum and excreta of infected
animals, the method Of prevention
suggested would seem to have much
to commend it along the line of sound
sanitary sense. 1t Is therefore clear
that If uninfected hogs are left in a
lot or pen in which the disease has APP
peared they are exposed to the great
est possible danger Of contamination.
We should be pleased to have any
readers Of these notes who may have
tried this plan to report on the meas
ure of success which has attended it.

The American Society of Equity, with
headquarters at Indianapolis, Ind, has
undertaken the project of organizing
the farmers of the country, particularly
those Of the wheat producing states,
into a trust, with membership of
100000. The object of the organization
will be to control the prices Of all the
leading farm products-to keep wheat
at ST bushel and other products at a
price level to correspond. In view Of
the large membership proposed, one of
the chief obstacles to success will lie
in the difficulty Of securing united &C
ton and Of getting individual men,
bers to stick to particular agreement.
The experiences Of the ordinary farm
ers' cooperative creameries and grain
and produce companies along the line
Of securing united and harmonious &C.
ton touching matters that are conced,
ed to be to the best interest Of all con,
cerned would seem to cause doubt as
to the ultimate success Of so vast an
economic enterprise. However, the
field is surely an inviting If also a
speculative one, and the outcome of
the enterprise will be watched with a
great deal of interest.

This has been very mild winter
and stock have not felt the need Of shell
ter as they ordinarily do. At the same
time, when a storm does come they
feel the inclemency Of the weather all
the more. We passed feed lot not
long since where some young stock
were being roughed through the winter.
1t was showing and blowing, and these
young things were standing with their
backs to the storm, all puckered up,
with the wet snow driving clear to
their skins They could not and would
not eat enough that day to hold their
own and will show the effects Of the
exposure for week. Stock handled
thus through the winter will require q
month on good grass to get into thriv-
ing condition. 1t pays to shelter your
stock.

The federal and state agricultural ex-
pertinent stations are continually isSu-
ing publications which are Of immense
value to the agricultural interests of
the country along the line of intro
ducing the culture Of new grains and
grasses, suggesting better methods
Of handling the varied crops and ways
and means Of reducing, so far as pos
sible, damage from numerous insect
pests. A very comprehensive bulletin
on the "Diptera of Minnesota" issued
by the state experiment station, comes
under the latter head. Among the
many sketches Of the two winged flies
that abound in the state the one ex-
planning the habits Of the Hessian fly
is of especial interest. This pest is the
particular enemy Of the wheatfelds,
the damage being wrought by the lar
va, which by working in the stalk so
weakens it that when the grain is
headed out and top heavy it breaks
over, preventing proper ripening OF
the berry itself and making impossible
the harvesting Of the grain. The fly,
whose name was given because Of its
supposed introduction into this country
in the bedding of the Hessian soldiers,
is credited with responsibility for the
loss of as high as 80 per cent Of the
wheat in many Minnesota fields. The
remedies suggested looking to pre-
vention of the ravages Of the fly are
simple and practical. They consist Of
burning of the stubble in fields which
have been affected, particularly where
deep blowing seems inadvisable, or
where this work is delayed until after
about May /, when the flies emerge.
Some make the burning of the stubble
more effective by scattering the straw
left from the thrashing and burning
of all litter from the machine. AS in
the case of the stamping out of other
1pests, best results are obtained through
co-operative effort on the part of the
wheat growers Of an affected district.

ure impossible for the individual TO ac-
eomplish tangible -.esults when his

One of the small glaciers in Montana is
of especial interest on account of the fact
that in the mass OF ice there are imbedded
two strata of grasshoppers, each about a
foot thick. There are literally tons Of
grasshoppers in the ice, and the question
naturally arises as to where they came
from. The most obvious explanation is
that centuries ago two enormous swarms
in course of migration were caught in a
snowstorm, chilled and buried in the
snow, where they have remained till now
In perfect state OF preservation.
