1t does not seem to be the intent of
the act that every retail dealer must
send to this station sample of every
variety of seeds that he handles. On
the other hand, it would seem that a
sample sent by the wholesale dealer
would suffice for the particular lot of
seeds from which it was taken, even
although the lot of seeds might be dis
tributed to retail dealers all over the
state. The examination of the seeds
may be made here or elsewhere. The
quantity to be sent for examination is
one pound of field seeds and one ounce
of flower and garden seeds. Small
quantities will be examined only when
they are sent by the one who contem-
plates planting such seeds, and the re-
suit of these tests cannot be used by
the dealer in offering the same lot of
seeds for sale.

should be sent to c. E. Temple, Botan-

Poor Hatches-Why?
(From Idaho Country Life)

(FrOm lQdQO country LlI0)
All over the country infertile eggs
and chicks low in vitality is a common
complaint, and it is fast becoming an
alarming condition, one that must be
dealt with. All kinds of ideas are Of
fered as to cause, many suggest that
in-breeding, while others suggest the
lack of freer range, neither of which
bear very close relation to the real
cause.
Line breeding Commonly called in
breeding) is absolutely necessary that
the height of breeding perfection may
be attained. The fact that wild birds
are inbred and have been from time
memorial bears conclusive evidence
that line or inbreeding has no effect
upon fertility. Quails will lay large
number of eggs and will usually hatch
every one of them; strong, vigorous
fellows, every one looking alike, both
in type and color.
Birds kept in close quarters, if prop
erly cared for will produce as great
per centage of fertility as those on free
range.
The secret all lies in the feeding and
care of the birds. The breeding hen
should be kept in breeding condition
throughout the entire year. Hens
forced for heavy egg production will
not produce satisfactory percentage
of fertility In fact, the balanced ra-
tons, SO generally used for egg force
ing are not practical feeds for the hens.
Hens that have been forced to lay like
smoke throughout the winter, cannot
be expected to produce fertile eggs
when wanted for Matching.

All baking powders contain starch,

and either alum, calcium phosphate or
cream of tartar. The starch is merely
added as filler to prevent the mater
ials from acting before the powder is
used. Either of the last materials
mentioned will liberate the gas from
the soda upon the addition cwater.
Alum baking powder is the cheapest
and will liberate the most gas, but is
Objectionable on account of its injur-
ious effect on the stomach. Such pow
der usually has aluminium sulphate in
stead of alum written upon the label.
Phosphate baking powder is objection
able on account of its poor keeping
qualities. Cream of tartar powder gives
off the least amount of gas and costs
the most, but is the most desirable. The
residue from the soda and cream of
tartar in this powder is Rochelle salt,
but the amount actually eaten at any
one time is negligible.
