Raise Chickens in Wisconsin.

If the bill now pending before the
legislature providing for the establish
ment of poultry department at the
college of agriculture of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin is approved, the
special instruction and investigation
in poultry husbandry, for which there
is a growing demand. will begin on an
excellent basis. Such courses have
not been given at the college hereto
fore, but plans are being made for
their establishment next year.
The importance of the poultry in
dustry to Wisconsin is not generally
recognized, although the value of the
eggs produced in the state in 1905
was $6.630,000, according to the state
census. The only products of the
state that year which exceeded the
eggs in value were the hogs, valued
at s16,00O,000, and the cattle, worth
S12,000,000. Only four crops hay,
oats, corn and barley-exceeded eggs
in money value.

SHOULD TEST CORN SEED.
University Professor Urges lmpor-
lance of Seed Testing.

University Professor Urges lmpor-
lance of Seed Testing.
"The value of the field crops of Wis
consin is estimated at $100,0OO,OO0
annually, and this great valuation
can be increased one-fourth, or $685.
100000, by careful grading and test
ing of Seeds" says Prof. R. A. Moore
of the college of agriculture, Univer-
sity of Wisconin, in urging the lmpor-
lance of seed testing. There is no
seed which varies more in quality and
vitality than corn, and farmers can
not afford to take the risk of planting
INFESTED or ungraded seed. A few
hours Of careful work may mean dou-
BILE the yield for the year.
To test seed corn requires simply
shallow box or pan in which clean
sawdust may be placed and moisten'
ed. The selected grains of corn from
tip, center and butt of each ear are
placed on it's surface and covered
with several thicknesses OF wet
clothsG This box should be set in a
warm place and the grains allowed to
sprout. Boiling the sawdust will pre-
vent molds appearing to interfere
with the test.
A bushel of seed will plant six or
seven acres, and a few poor ears in
that amount will cause very un'
even stand. Five or six bushels OF
corn can be tested by the ear meth
cd in two or three hours if they are
spread out in rows on long tables
and numbered to correspond with the
grains that are placed in the testing
box. The removal of one or two bad
ears from each bushel may mean
uniform crop, as compared with one
that has many vacant patches.
Every farmer should carefully grade
his seed as we'll as test it, so that
only well formed, vigorous grain Is
used for planting. The seed buyer
should insist on purchasing the seed
corn in the ear, and the scoop shovel
method of handling seed corn, taking
it at random from the bin, should be
carefully avoided.
