Prof. PERRY q. HOLDEN.
demonstration farms, and the National
Corn Exposition. AS head Of tho ex-
tension department Of Iowa State Col
lege of Agriculture he did a work
which, Senator Cummins says, up to
the present time has increased the
wealth of Iowa $30,0OO,O00.
The object of the H G Service Bu-
reau is the promotion of agricultural
education, and cooperation which
s~t1 tend to raise the whole tone of
commercial, Industrial and farm life,
Since agriculture is the basis Of pros
sperity and progress, naturally farm
problems claim first attention. The aim
Is higher efficiency, both on and of
the farm.
l. To do big work big organiza ton
Is necessary. Not only the bigness,
but the perfection of the international
organization as well appealed to Pro.
lessor Holden. The big general agen.
cfes, scattered all over the United
States and Canada; the statesmen,
travellers and expert machine men;
the 10000 dealers-every one, so far
rs possible, is to be made an apostle
Of better farming.
For years the International Har-
vester Company has realized the i'm
portance of service. It has spent mil
Hons of dollars in the perfection of la
bor-saving machines, and now the
company is going in for direct service
direct to the farmers, and direct to
the farmers children, that the men
and women of tomorrow may be more
capable and SO more prosperous than
the men and women of today.
1t is no longer theory that II we
are to get the most out Of life we
must raise more per acre. "Inten.
sive farming" is in the air. It is the
battle cry of peace and plenty. But
raising more is the result of mind,
not MUSCLE We must know. And
not only that, we must KNOW we
know, and know why we know. We
must know good seed from bad, right
cultivation from wrong, and the why's
and wherefors of climates, soils,
fruits, cattle, horses, poultry, and so
forth.
For these things the bureau was
established. But the bureau aud
Professor Holden see more than an
average increase of few bushels.
They see time coming when farmers
will raise twice as many bushels of
corn, wheat and oats to the acre,
and like yields of all other kinds OF
farm products. They see time when
farmers and farmers wives and their
, children will think more and work
less. Every bushel raised means Just
that much profit, and the. profits of
the farm promote commerce and in.
dustry.
After period Of good work IN Mich.
igan agricultural college, better work
at Illinois, and great work at Iowa,
Professor Holden now enters upon q
worlds work. While in future Pro.
fessor Holden will designate Chicago
Is home, he says he is not leaving Iowa
he is merely carrying Iowa to the
rest Of the world.

TREATING THE SEED
j, w. Aiken Tells Farmers Flow They
Can Make contraption Quickly and
=. For Little Money

J. w. Aiken, Sawyer farmer, told
the Independent editor of a contrap-
ton ne had invented, but not pat
ented, which is mighty handy thing
to nse treating wheat. It is simple
and can be made at small expense in
short time. He made q water
tight box six feet lont, two feet wide
and loot deep with a plug in one
end. He immerses his seed in a 90
luton in this box and after It has
soaked the required time,. the plug
is pulled out and the solution runs
out into tub. After the wheat is
scooped from the box into the wagon,
another batch is shoveled into the
box and the same solution used again
Wild oats float on top Of the solution
and can be skinned of. To keep
the wheat from going out Of the hole
in the box, a screen can be nailed
across 1t. He says this method beats
barrel all hollow.

b0LLfY'S TALK TO
COMMISSIONERS
Gives Some Good Advice to County
Dads Furnishing Seed at county's
Expense

To County Commissioners: A
Slate Seed Commissioner | will b
glad to aid you in selecting the seed
for contract, in any way That we can
loyal do, examining samples, etc.
If you will inform me as to the points
at which such seed is stored I will
anime such bulk of grain before ship
ment to the farmers, or before YOU
make your contract for delivery.
TO the Farmers or any others who
contract or seed for sowing purposes
either from County Commissioners
or from any other persons, either IN
the State or outside of the State:-
If you will write me I will send you
blanks which will instruct you how to
take samples from the seed grain de-
livered so that the tests as made BY
us will hold legally Such samples
must be fairly taken and should be
sealed in the presence Of reputable
witness who signs to that effect.
The Pure Seed Laboratory cannot
give much aid in such cases of VIC
lation o. contract after the grain u
seeded, after the evidence is spoiled
and the lands hefouled.
You should not sign releases TOR
seed grain for sowing purposes un-
less you intend to clean the grain
before sowing it. You should not
conspire to evade or violate the law;
which was made to protect your
neighbors as well as yourself. Send
for sampling blanks if you are max
long contracts for seed grain with any
parties. If you do not feel confident
of your own ability, allow us to help
you learn whether the contract was
fairly met.
