Alfalfa Seed Testing.

Directions are given by the Texas
station for testing the purity of alfalfa
seed AID the weed seeds frequently
found in it, together with seeds some
times used as its adulterants, such as
bur clover and sweet clover, are de-
Scribed
In 1905 the station tested thirty
two samples of alfalfa seed obtained
from the wholesale houses of the
state. In these samples thirty differ
ent weed seeds were found. The per
centage of sand trash and broken seed
varied from O 10 20 per cent. Testing
the vitality of the seed is also describ-
ed. The results secured with the thir-
ty-two samples showed their vitality
or terminating power to vary from
400 TO 96,5 per cent, the greater num-
Der having vitality of over 50 per
cent The actual values of the seed
samples in percentages varied from
30.G to 96. The results in detail are

Ground intended for onions should
be plowed as early as the weather will
permit, as the onion crop is the first to
go in. One method of producing onions
is to SOW the seeds in hotbeds and
transplant the small bulbs later. The
seeds may be sown in the hotbeds in
January or February. BY thus grow
ing them there is a saving of time and
less difficulty with weeds If prefer
red, the onion sets may be procured
OF scedSmen. In fact, onion sets should
now be in the ground. Plant the sets
in rows, placing them -four inches apart
in the rows. The rows may be suff-
GENTLY wide to permit of the Use of n
wheel hoe. It is important to keep the
grass from between the onions as well
rs to have the space between the rows
clean. Onions can endure frost and
will start to grow almost as soon as
planted.
