$1O2, $4,000 to $141,371, 900 during the
ten years from 1900 to 1910, in Penn

The poultry were valued at 1854

THE DESTRUCTIVE GRAIN MOTH

! tirely in the kernels Of corn or other
grain.
The southern farmer generally applies
the term Fly weevil" TO, this species to
distinguish 1t from the rice or black
pirate, because the adult flying motn
that feeds in the grain. This species
does not attack meal or food products,
but lives in the whole grain, single
kernel of corn often furnishing food for
two or three larvae.
During the year five or six generations
of moth may be produced. Farmers COM
monty remark that grain becomes in
tested in spring when large numbers Of
moths are seen flying in the granaries-
thus gaining for them the name Fly
weevil'' but in reality the grain is gen.
orally first infested in the field.
These moths commence to emerge in
April, and earlier in the warmer sec
tions, and succeeding generations may
mature about every six weeks
Grain in the field is evidently not in
tested until nearly grown, or IN such
condition that the first moths mature
about when the grain Is ripening. 1t
Is certainly a bad practice to leave corn
cut and stacked in the field, for In such
condition more ears are exposed to egg
deposition than would be If the corn were
stored in the grain cribs. The moths
will not be present In the granaries dur
ing the fall months If proper precautions
have been taken to get rid OF all infested
grain of the previous years growth.

GOOD ROADS COMMANDMENTS

constrained to follow thy shining ex-
ample.
VII. When thou drivest to town. put
thy spade in the buggy. If thou contest
to one of those ruts which do cause
thee and thy neighbor to swear when
passing over, fill thou it with few
spadefuls of dirt Thy neighbor will
bless thee for it, and thou mayest save
a big repair bill on thine own vehicle.
And the low places at the approaches to
bridges. thou shalt treat in like manner
with the same good effect.
TX. If thou hast been guilty of throw
ing brush or any kind of trash into one
of those small drain-ditches along thy
farm, go thou straightway and remove
the obstruction. or if thy neigh Dor mas
committed like offense, thou shalt IN
tercede with him until he also removes
those hindrances and opens up the
bitches. For a road with bitches across
it, or down the main track, is an abom-
nation and a curse in the sight of ev-
cry mortal who laboriously travels
over it.
X DO thou all this and as much more
as seemeth good. Preach thou to thy
neighbor and to thy neighbours son that
good roads are never a happen-so, nor
a vegetable that springeth up in single
night; but that they are a natural re-
suit of mortal mans untiring efforts.
And remember thou these points:
Open bitches at each side of the road
will perfect the draingage. The drag
will smooth and work the dirt to the
center of the roadbed. Sun, wind and
travel will aid in completing the re-
quirements by drying and packing the
earl. in place.
See thou that all these conditions ex-
list wherever the road touches thy farm,
and the travelling public will rise on
tiptoes and call thee blessed among men.

IMPURITIES IN FARM SEED

weeds, necessitating labor and expense IN
preventing permanent injury to the farm.
Seed may have low terminating power
due to age or to unfavorable conditions
of development or of harvesting. Seed of
clovers and of alfalfa found on the mar
ket sometimes comes from foreign re-
gions possessing a less rigorous climate
than that under which the seed would
be grown in this country. For this rea-
son such seed is undesirable. These re-
suits of tests made in the laboratory are
fully corroborated by the experiences of
farmers engaged in growing crops
Seed testing on the farm involvs little
expense, and considering the little effort
and time required is more than justified
by the practical information gained by
it.
One of the first steps in testing seeds
of the forage crops is to determine if the
sample is true to name, and it is neces-
sary that these kinds of seeds be recog-
nized with certainty. While most farm
ers, as rule. can recognize red clover
seed, for example, when they see 1t in
bulk, il is not so certain that they would
recognize individual seeds Of red clover
under all conditions, as one must in MAX
ing tests of this seed. Again, alfalfa
seed in bulk is recognized by most farm
ers, because they contrast in with red,
alsike, and white clover seed with which
they are familiar as these seeds appear
in bulk. 1t is a question. however, if
the average farmer would detect yellow
trefoi seed in bulk or sweet clover seed
in bulk were it not for the characteristic
odor of the latter. But clover seed would
be found even more deceiving.
The chances for deception are even
greater with grass seeds than with clover
seeds, because of the striking similarity
between the seeds of different kinds when
seen in bulk. This similarity and the
fact that mere casual examination is usu-
ally given seed by purchasers making
adulteration, substitution, and misbrand-
ing possible.
The remedy lies in familiarity with the
distinguishing characters of individual
seeds. BY a careful study of the differ
ent seeds one should be able to distin-
guish the weed seed without much diff
Guilty
The most conspicuous of the various
noxious weed seeds are illustrated on this
page. The general form and structure
and the natural size of the seeds are
shown.
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1911-04-21

In the matter of seed buying the best
protection to the purchaser is believed to
be selfIprotection based on the ability
to judge the quality of the seed offered.
This belief is supported by the fact that
il is both possible and practicable for
buyers or consumers of seeds to deter
mine very accurately their quality.
The impurities carried by farm seeds
have an important bearing on the real
quality of the seed. Their quantity may
be sufficient to unduly increase the cost
of the good seed and their character may
be that-of injurious weeds.
Very few samples of forage-crop seeds
are found wholly free from weed seeds.
The methods of culture and of harvest
ing in vogue operate against pure seed
crop. The proportion of the weed seeds
appearing incidentally in the marketed
seed is dependent on the number and
character of the weeds in the seed-pro-
ducing crop and the extent to which the
seed has been cleaned before being mar
keted.
Weed seeds occurring in farm seed are
of interest to the buyer of seed in respect
to their total quality and in respect to
their kinds. In many instances low
grade seed contains so much weed seed
that the quantity of the crop seed is
thereby greatly reduced in given weight
of seed. OF the kinds of weed seeds 300
to 400 are known to occur in the various
kinds of the common crop seds. Occas-
ionally from IS to 100 kinds of weed seeds
are to be found in a single sample of
red clover or alfalfa seed not exceeding
a few ounces in weight. In some in
stances one or more kinds of weed seed
are very abundant in the sample. AS a
rule, however. most of the kinds are
represented by only a few seeds.
The important question in regard to the
kinds of weed seed found in crop seed
is whether the plants they produce are
injurious or relatively unimportant.
Some of the weed seeds commonly found
in seed produce plants which are very
detrimental to the crop or to the land.
Everyone making tests of seed should
become familiar with the seeds of injur-
ious weeds. Most of the wed seeds found
in making tests are seeds of compare
lively harmless plants, and their reeogni-
ton as to kind becomes more matter
of interest than one of practical impor-
lance.
The seed of certain farm crops Is often
mixed with seed of especially noxious
