Money Getting Means Care in Select

All experiments in grain raising at

the Importance of using greater care
in preparing his seed bed, selecting
seeds, cultivation, harvesting, etc.
Station experiments have repeatedly
shown that yields of corn may be in
creased by careful selection of seed
made in the field before FROST Go
through the field and save the best
formed ears of the desired type, and
keep them separate from the rest of
the crop. This will give fairly good
seed. A better method, however, is to
plant patch purposely for seed, and
to keep it pure to plant the patch
forty or fifty rods from the main crop
or from any other corn. Do this each
year, remembering that to prevent

Buy from a reliable druggist stand
ard "formalin" of guaranteed strength
namely of 40 per cent solution of
formaldehyde). Mix 1 pound Il pint)
in As gallons of water in an ordinary
wooden barrel and stir it. Two ways
of applying this solution to the grain
can be used:
l. Dipping Method: Put the grain
in clean sacks that have been first
placed in boiling water for a few min
utes; take each sack of grain and
dip it in the solution in the barrel
raise it and lower until each seed
is wet; set the sack on a clean floor
and let it stand over night. The grain
can then be dumped out on a clean
floor or left in the sacks until it dries
enough to let it run through the drill.
"a floor Is clean when it is washed
with boiling hot water). Be sure not
to let the swollen grain stand so long
that it will sprout. If it cannot be
sown Immediately, it should be thor
oughly dried and may then be kept
indefinitely. When dry enough to run
through the drill, SOW it. Be sure the
drill is clean. Sow more seed per
acre if the grain is swollen.
2. Sprinkling Method: Make the
solution the same as in the dipping
method. Put the grain on clean
floor, spread it out and with a sprink-
Shovel the grain and sprinkle again.
Repeat until each kernel is moist but
not too wet. Shovel into pile and
cover with sacks or canvass over
night. Then spread it out and shovel
occasionally until dry enough to SOW.
Follow the precautions for drying and
sowing given under the dipping
method.
This treatment will prevent the fol-

Treatment Of Smut In Grain.
Every farmer knows what smut in
oats or wheat means. He knows how
q field of wheat which gives promise
of 20 bushels per acre Of grain will
produce, infected. with smut, only Is
bushels or less, and inferior smutted
grain at that. Every farmer ought to
know that such smutted grain if not
treated before seeding will again pro-
duce smut-more smut than before.
Every farmer ought to know that even
II his seed looks clean, it may still
have smut on it, unless he is sure that
it comes from a field without smut
and that it has not been contain
mated with smut in the separator, in
the bin, sacks or seeder. Finally
every farmer ought to know that by
q simple, inexpensive seed treatment
he can be absolutely sure that he
will have clean crop-he can buy
insurance against smut at very low
cost by treating his seed.
