SEED TIME
is AT HAND
SPECIAL ATTENTION is CALLED
TO THE NECESSITY OF A RoTA.
TON OF CROPS

One Of the most important items in
the successful manipulation Of a mod
ern improved Iowa farms is the proper
rotation Of crops. The following, from
the bulletin sent out recently by the
Iowa Experimental station is of vital
interest in regard to this matter:
'"The time for sowing oats is almost
at hand and likewise the time for
sowing clover. Do not SOW an acre Of
oats without sowing about ten pounds
of clover seed with the oats. The
very fact that there are thirty acres
of oats to one acre of clover in this
state, shows that the vast majority Of
the oats sown in Iowa Is not accom-
panied by seeding with clover. Iowa
raises approximately nine and one
half million acres of corn, six and one
half million acres of oats and only two
hundred and seven thousand acres Of
clover, or forty-six acres Of corn to
one acre of clover and thirty acres of
oats to each acre of clover. This
shows that the prevailing system OF
farming consists of growing corn most
Of the time and resting" the land
.once in two or three years by grow
ing crop of oats.
| A rotation Of crops is absolutely
necessary in a permanent system OF
| farming and a rotation which does not
include clover or some other legumin-
GUS crop, is scarcely worthy Of the
name. BY leguminous crops, we mean
all the clover, alfalfa, COW peas, soy
beans, ETC., all of which are capable
of using the nitrogen of the air
These crops, which are rich in nitro
gen, are the crops which are rich in
protein and every farmer who has
bought feed knows that the more pro
TEN feed contains, the more 1t costs
him. Corn is the best fattening feed
in the world but there must be Ger
tain amount of protein fed with u
be obtained. Why not grow this pro
TEN on our farms In the form Of Glow
er and at the same time, add fertility
to the soil SO that our children viii
not be compelled to farm worn ou
farm or seek fertile soil in some Other
locality? The man wno lays up ferttl
ity in his soil by sowing clover, Ii
doing his boy greater good than i
/ he lays up money in the bank fol
him.
"The growing of clover fits perfect
i ly into system of farming which Ii
designed to increase the amount Y
produce obtained from the land ant
at the same time leave the soil more
fertile.
J "The farmers who SOW oats thi
spring can add many dollars to thei
own income and millions to the wealth
of the state both now and in future
years, if they will SOW clover seed lib
orally with every acre of oats sow
upon their farms

JUST A WORD
TO THE WISE
FARMERS SHOULD REALIZE THE
IMPORTANCE OF A CAREFUL Sc.
LECTION OF THEIR SEED CORN.

The latest bulletin issued by the
Iowa Experiment station located at
Ames contains strong and interest
ing article upon the Importance of a
close examination Of all seed corn be-
fore planting. According to this bulle-
tin now is the time for this selection
and test. Following is the report in
part:
The seed corn which is intended
for planting this year is in very bad
condition. This is the opinion Of a
large nun1ter Of men who have exanin-
ed and Judged thousands Of samples
of seed corn at the Farmens' Insti.
tutes and corn shows held in all parts
of the state this winter.
Almost without exception, one-fourth
to three-fourths Of the seed brought
in for exhibition show plainly that the
germs are dead or in very weak con.
dition These samples probably repre-.
sent quite truly the seed which the
owners, intend to plant this spring. II
the seed Is only one-fourth to three.
fourths strong, will it not be prof.
table to test each ear and discard the
bad and weak ones?
The late frosts and rains in many
parts Of the state last fall prolonged
the growing period and kept the corn
from drying out. When the hard
October and November freezes came
there was still large amount of mois
ture in the corn. The germs of the
corn which froze with this moisture in
them were killed or weakened, con
sequently large portion Of the seed
saved as the corn was husked fol-
cribbing was already killed.
The condition is especially bad In
Northern Iowa, but is very unsatis
factory in other parts Of the state ant
in other states in the corn belt.
Now, not next May and June wher
the corn is being replanted is the
time to think about this.
Now during March while we have
the time is the time to test our SEED
corn.
Test Coasts Nothing
Farmers are most strongly urget
! to test six kernels from every eal
which they intend to plant next spring
This will take about three days for thu
average farmer. It will cost him moth
Ing. He cannot hurt his corn by test
! ing 1t. 1t will bring him a stand o
corn"
One ear will plant three hundred
hills. A bad ear thrown out and re
placed by good one will prevent Their
being three hundred missing hills II
the neld next summer.
II seed must be bought 1t should b.
purchased In the ear as near home a
possible. II it has not been teste'
before being sold the purchaser will d
we'll to test each ear and discard al
showing weak or bad termination. N
one can afford to be careless abou
the seed he plants.
The seed this year is very bad, bu
if every farmer will test six kernel
from each ear Of his seed, he has
within his power to plant seed whtc
will grow strong.
This test is explained in free bu
letin sent out by the Iowa Experimen
station at Ames. Every farmer ma
avail himself Of this opportunity an
send for this bulletin"

a mile of track over which street cars
are drawn by horses remains within
Hawkeye territory says G.. G. Ewing,
who travels over dozen states in
the west and south, handling electric

Wyoming is the only state in the
union, which has no electric cars of

New York with 100; Ohio, 116; Massa.

! North and South Dakota have had
lines. These cities are Fargo and
Deadwood. Nevada has only one city
with electric lines, and Nebraska has
two, Omaha and Lincoln. Only four
companies operate electric lines in
Minnesota; eight in Mississippi; Ok
lahoma three and idaho four. There
are no electric lines In Alaska; Cuba
has two, one at Havana and one at
Cienfuesas; the Hawaiian islands
have one at Honolulu, and Canada has
Is lines. The Philippines have two
one at Manila and one at Ilo In Por
to Rico there are two lines, one al
San Juan and one at Ponce.
In Iowa there are nine proposed
electrical lines, at least three of which
will be built this year.
i A proposed electric line, ninety
miles Of which will be built in 1907
will extend from Minneapolis through

There are about 35 horse railwa,
