HIGH GRADE SEED IN DEMAND.
(By George S. Green.)

y
The very evident increase in the de-
mand for high grade seed grain is
most encouraging to seedmen and the
leading houses in the seed trade are
making an earnest effort to supply
this demand. Heretofore there has
been neither a widespread demand
nor any adequate source Of supply for
quantities of high-grade seed grain IN
any proportionate to the total area
to be seeded. The supply for this de-
mand must come from two sources.
First, the breeding of pure seed grain
through the careful and painstaking
methods of the scientific plant breed
er. This method while highly efficient
and full of promise for the future and
hence worthy Of all encouragement, is
necessarily slow. Furthermore, it will
only be useful to the farsighted and
educated farmer, who is willing to pay
liberal prices for his seed and to give
his own local conditions sufficient
study to enable him to choose wisely
from the mass of information offered
him by agricultural colleges.
Sow Plump, WeIl-Matured Grain.
The other method, which for the
present, appeals even more strongly
to me, is the selection and careful re-
cleaning of plump, high colored and
we'll matured grain, grown on clean
farms in sections which now produce
heavy crops of the grain in question.
This class of seed grain distributed
in quantity through seedsmen and
other commercial channels will, be-
lieve, produce quick results in a great
ly increased average yield of grain in
the sections where it is sown.
| verify believe that this should be
primarily campaign against the use
of inferior seed grain, against the use
CT weedy immature, poorly-cleaned
seed grain, such as so many farmers
are now using.
Insist on Clean, Heavy Seed.
If you can displace the seeding of
this character of grain in county
and substitute the use of good heavy
clean perfectly matured grain Sc
cured at moderate cost through ordin-
airy channels from sections where the
grain in question produces bountifully
you will at once raise materially the
average production of grain in that
county both in quantity and quality.
What we want first and most of all
is that farmers generally shall plant
good, clean, strong, germinable seed,
produced under favorable conditions
and recleaned by modern methods.
This kind of seed can be supplied in.
large qualities by seedsmen when the
demand for it is created

BETTER BARLEY IN IOWA

It would seem advisable to first con-
slider just what manner of barley
grain We are endeavoring to raise.
Barley is now being used largely for
feeding as well as brewing. For the
farmer who feeds his crop, the yield
per acre is Of first Importance. If on
the other hand the crop is to be sold,
a little attention to a few usually neg
lected items will make several dol
lars difference IN the value of every
acre.
What is desired of the barley crop?
The interest of everybody concerned
in the barley crop is in the production
of a high yield of uniform grain. Let
me repeat, high yield and uniform
grain" more bushels of one type of
kernel, one size of kernel, one color
of grain.

Rotate Corn With Barley.

Rotation is an important factor in
the successful growing of barley. 1t
should not follow itself too closely.
This is more true of barley than other
of our common cereals. An excellent
rotation is clover and timothy two
years. corn one year followed the next
by barley, and grass seeding. Manure
heavily on sod one year in four.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE

New York Manager Asks
Contributions to Help

Citizens OF Washington will be invited
to subscribe toward the building here
of home for grand opera. according to
the announcement Of Oscar Hammer
stein in New York. Mr.. Hammerstein
plans the formation OF two grand opera
circuits which will include other princi-
pal cities of the country east of the
Rocky Mountains and exclusive Of
New York. Chicago. Philadelphia. and
Boston. In those four cities Mr.. Ham
merstein is debarred by contract from
producing grand opera.
One of these opera circuits will in
clude, besides Washington. Baltimore,
Norfolk. Richmond. Atlanta. Birming-
ham. Nashville. Memphis. New orleans,
Galveston, Houston. Dallas. and San
Antonio.
The cities in the other circuit are to
be Albany, Syracuse. Buffalo. Detroit.
Cleveland. Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, St.
Louis. Kansas City, and Denver.
II will erect in every city of promin-
terested in the welfare and progress Of
their city outside of New York, Phila-

house of fireproof construction. seating
vate boxes" says Mr.. Hammerstein' s
circular
Each city can be assured of two or
three weeks of grand opera" declares
the impresario. "and the ethical and
esthetic advantages will greatly out
weigh the commercial aspects necessary
to the inception of the scheme
Whether or not Mr.. Hammerstein is
successful in enlisting subscribers in
the cities named, it is certain that he
himself Is ready to invest his own
money in the project. for Mr.. Hammer
stein is famous for being ready to back
grand opera against uncertain prospects
of financial return, as witness his last
venture in London. which has been a
money losing one.
After selling out the Manhattan opera
Company to the Metropolitan Opera
Company for large sum, Mr. Hammer
stein began looking for other operate
worlds to conquer, and cast his eye on
London. 1t was then that one of his
sons. Able, made his famous remark;
IF father We're to die now, we'd all be
rich"
