S SURE SIGN OF SUMMER
Irish Woman Shows Great Sollcituds
for Lady Bug She Pueked From
Longpole's Neck.

The other day Mr.. Longpole went
oyer&to Brooklyn on business. He
boarded Fulton street car, and
scarcely had taken his seat when an
amply-proportioned, good-natured look
ing Irishwoman pumped down next
him. A few moments later Mr.. Long
pole felt that the woman had turned
part way round and was regarding him
attentiVely. Presently she raised one
fat hand and, with the fingers brought
closely together at the tips, cautiously
approached it toward his neck, saying
at the same time in loud, cheerful
voice:
Excuse me, but you've lady boog

she advanced her hand still further
and gently plucked the insect from

she triumphantly. IT have 1t in me
two fingers. See!" and she held the
bug up for his inspection. Then, con-

SEED GRADERS.

National Crop Improvement servics.l
Many people think It not worth
while to run the grain through the
seed grader mill, but in recent years
its favor is spreading rapidly. In fact
1t is an Indispensable requirement OF
every well kept farm. and, If not al
ready part OF the equipment, Ii should
be added as soon as possible Good.
clean seed is one of the requisites OF
good crop, and of late farmers are
beginning to awaken to the fact.
Weed Farms.
Quite often we see large fields of
weeds growing in profusion where in.
variably wheat. oats or corn should
be growing. Every weed that grows
crowds out some plant that would be
of value, therefore the yield of the
crop is lessened to an extent. Weeds
tend to propagate, coming up year
after year, OF themselves, on soil
where the grain crops must be sown
annually; consequently, in the end 1t
viii be found profitable to add a seed
grader to the equipment,

One OF the most disagreeable OBJ
structions in the path of farmers
happiness is the hired help problem.
In the present day and age 1t is
difficult matter to secure good. efii-
cient farm laborsrs. And this state
OF affairs is growing worse instead OF
better II places the farmer In most
disadyantageous position.
This condition, however, is being
improved TO a constantly Increasing
degree by the introduction OF the
farm tractor. One OF the most ina
portant advantages of the use of trac-
tion power for farm work is that II
saves labor. This is due to the fact
that one man is able to contyol more
power An engine that will do the
work OF nfteen horses, or one that win
do as much as thirty horses. can be
driven by one man as easily rs ne can
drive a two-horse team It would take
from three TO ave men TO handle ff-
teen horses, and from ak to ten man
to handle thirty. Is this not evidence
enough OF the economy Of the tractor2
Fssdlne Hsfsss.
1t is doubtful IL many farmers ever
stop TO consider the amount OF labor
required for Feeding and caring for
horses. according to- figures of the
United statCs Department OF Asricuf

day IL spent ON each horse the year
round. I; Epr tsftesn horses this would

to the tractor u selt-eyident.
The tractor shortens the farmers
working day, by doing away with the
monotonous chores before daylight
and after dark.
Farmer Benefited.
Not only the farmer is benefited by
the tractor, it also relieves his wife
of the drudgery OF preparing meals
and caring for gang Of hired hands
In spite of the fact that the gem
eral purpose farm tractor Is com
paratiyely new thing, its popularity
as source Of farm power is inereas-
Ing very rapidly. Farmers are find

adapted to the needs of the grain

WHEAT SMUT.
Treat Wheat Seed for Smut With So
lutlon Of Formaldehyde.

National Crop Improvement Service.
To treat seed wheat for' sinking
smut before sowing the grain is very
necessary.
This smut is caused by the spores
OF the sinking smut fungus which
adhere TO otherwise healthy seed
grain. These smut spores may come
from smutted kernels broken open, or
from old bags or tanning mills.
To treat seed wheat for smut the
method OF sprinkling It with a solu-
tion of formaldehyde (formalin) in
water Il pint or pound OF formade-
hyde to 40 gallons OF water) is rec
commended and is successful. The
formaldehyde Is on sale at drug
stores.
Sprinkle piles OF grain on tight
floor or canvas with this solution by
means of sprinkler, meanwhile shovel
ing the grain over so that every kerr
mel, is moistened--it will require three
fourths gallon to one gallon of solu-
tion per bushel of grain. When grain
is SO treated, allow to lie in pile 2 or
hours or over night; then spread to
dry. After treating, handle the grain
in dlsinfected bags. tanning mills and
drills.
To dlsinfect tanning mills or drills,
wash or sprinkle all parts we'll with
the same, or stronger formsldehyde
solution. To dislnfect bags for hand
ling treated seed grain, soak them
over night in same solution used to
treat seed wheat.

Heavier, Better Developed Kernels
terminate Better Than Light Ones.

National Crop Improvement service.l ]
Investigation carried on at the Kan
'sas State Agricultural College:
This experiment was to determine
the difference. II any. In the vitality
or termination of large and small
and heavy and light, kernels.
Standard varieties of winter wheat,
Turkey and Kharkof usually, were
used In this investigation.
The experiment was conducted
along four general lines. namely:
/. Kernels separated by weight.
2. Kernels separated by size.
8. Kernels separated by density.
4. Kernels separated by size and
density.
Results Obtained.
The results OF this investigation in
dicate that
/. The heavier, better developed
kernels In head of wheat germinate
better than the lighter kernels In the
same head.
2. Grading according to size will
not select the kernels which will
germinate the best.
3. The termination is directly cor
related with the density o. the ker-
nels.
T. The termination is independent
OF the size Of the kernels.
The above points have been ireiicat-
ed by the results Of the tests. II is
believed that the samples used were
large enough to give accurate deter
minations of the terminating ability
of the different samples of wheat.
