HOW SUGAR BEET
SEED IS TESTED

L. S. Consul J. l. Britain of Prague.
Bohemia, has written an interesting
report on the production of the sugar
beet seed He says:
one Of the most interesting places
in Bohemia is an establishment at
Rostok and Uholicky, where the sugar
beet seed is cleaned and dried for ex-
| port and where the seed beets are
tested before they are planted to
produce commercial seed.
The company sells more than 3d.
900 bags of seed annually, about two
thirds of which are exported, S32,S5
worth going to the United States in
| 1910. The seed for export is cleaned
and dried at special building for
the purpose. In order to prevent
injury from dampness the seed is
subjected to "A temperature of so deg.
C, and before being packed in bags
is thoroughly cooled. All shipments
to the United States are made in
double jute bags
Testing the Quality Of the Beets.
are tested are at Uholicky, on a fine
farm of 500 acres Testing the quail
| fly of the beets is done in the winter
months, and usually lasts about six
weeks. This work Is under the direc-
ton of well known psychologist of
the beet plant, who has under him
chemists and 20 1aborers, mostly
women and girls, who wash the bcets.

through the beet diagonally, entering

slightly downwards, taking out core

bred on the Wohanka farms, one
which produces the greatest possible
percentage of sugar and one which
yields the largest percentage OF sugar
per acre. The breeding is has ID on
the principle of scion and family lul-
ture, which for the first year consists
in the selection of scions gh'Ch are
isolated when planted and the seed
harvested separately. The second
year the seed from these scions IA
planted to procure the various beet
families. The third year the beets
from these various families are an
lalyzed. and those Of the highest quail
ity are planted to produce selected
seed. The fourth year the seed rom
these beets is planted on larger
scale, and the fifth year the Geets
from this seed are analysed. Those
showing 10 to 90 per cent sugar and
weighing from to IL pounds 1.-THE
percentage of sugar and weight OF
beets depending somewhat on the sea-
SOM are planted to pdOduce s,ed for
young shoots, which are grown the
sixth year. The seventh year these
young shoots are planted and produce
commercial beet seed. Thus this sys-
TEN of breeding to produce seed OF an
extra quality is carried along year
after year. New families of beets are
produced every year.
} While the testing farm contains
500 acres, II Is also necessary for the
prOprietors to contract with the large
land owners OF Bohemia for the pro-
duction OF their commercial seed.
These farms are supplied either with
young plants or selected seed.

came home. Imagine. If you can, their
looks and feelings, when instead of
finding two people for company. they
found quite a housefull. But they soon
recovered their self-presence and went
about speaking to each one.
Soon there We're various games COM
menced. There We're several card
games in evidence and judging by the
laughter that came from these tables
the participants were having lots of
fun. There was music. both vocal and
instrumental, which was much enjoy

Refreshments of cake and coffee
were served. Those that helped to
oNAft liit were MI .. NVi@
Cram, Doris Cram, Pearl Spear and
Neva Rolfe.
There We're a few nice presents re-
ceiVed. These We're table linen ana
towels. cake plate and a silver bread
