By L. j. Chaplin, Agronomist, West
ern Washington Experiment Station,
Puyallup.
The matter of pure seed is one of
absorbing interest to every agricul-
turist. Whether he be a grain farmer
or truck garden er his success de-
ponds in large measure on the quality
of the seed he sows.
Seed should not only be pure-free
from inert matter weed seeds, etc.,
but it should also be vigorous and
adapted to the conditions where it is
to be sown. This, it will be seen,
can hardly be accomplished except by
growing our own seed. This, we be-
lieve should be done to the greatest
extent possible.

quently under conditions quite differ
ent from those where the crop is to
be grown. We're this seed pure and
true to name, it would be unreason-
able to expect maximum returns.
Especially is this true in the case of
corn. Last year at the Western
Washington Experiment Station
home grown seeds produced a crop
at the rate of from Is to 30 tons per

bushel of pedigreed seed for every
$500 acres of grain sown. In view Of
the fact that the average yield of oats
was raised % per cent or eight bushels
per acre and that of wheat from five
to ten bushels per acre, it is evident
that the association has been of great
benefit to Canada. The demand for
pure bred seed in Washington will
increase and the price will also in
crease as it's value becomes known.

structions for selecting from this
years crop, address the Secretary,

acre, while seed procured from Fast
ern states grown under the same con-
ditions produced from one 10 eight
or nine tons per acre.
Seeds purchased on the open market
are not pure, however, but contain
more or less noxious weed seeds. 1t
is chiefly from this source that such
weeds as Canada thistle, Russian
thistle, mustard, quack grass and
others equally bad are introduced.
1t is not sufficient to know that the
seed to be sown is 99h per cent pure
if the remaining one-half is composed
of such seeds as the above mention
ed. All some of them need is start
and the cost of eradicating them is
too we'll known. Many persist in
spite of the most strenuous efforts on
the part of the farmer to destroy
them. The most stringent laws fail
to rid the country of them when they
once gain a foothold.
This problem can be solved by each
farmer growing his own seed, at least
the seed for his principal crops. The
time required to rogue out poor seed
plots would be protitably spent and
he could be certain that his seed as
100 per cent pure. Not only would
such seed be acclimated to his par
ticular locality and so produce far
greater yields but such a practice
would afford an opportunity for
selecting out strains peculiarly adapt
ed to soil and climatic conditions.
Abundant experimental data are at
hand showing the profita bleness OF
such a practice. AS commercial
venture many of the seeds used in
Washington and elsewhere might
we'll be grown at home. Already many
thousand acres of peas, cabbage,
onions, oats, etc., are being grown IN
Western Washington under contract.
Might not this business we'll be
handled by the farmer himself? BY
growing selected strains of these
crops from seed produced and select
ed from his own farm, larger yields
and better seed could be secured than
under the present method.
Believing that great good will come
from a campaign for better seed and
that better cultural methods will in
evitably follow the careful selection
of seed, State Seed Growers Associa
tion is being organized to systematic
| the work.
A preliminary organization was
effected at Puyallup, June 9Th. The
officers and directors of this tenn
porary organization are to act as a
committee on constitution and by
laws and rules and regulations. A
meeting will be called. probably in
January 1913, to adopt this constitu-
ton, ETC., and to effect a permanent
organization. Any farmer or seed
grower may become a member of the
association by applying to the secre-
tary and paying a nominal fee.
The advantages to the farmers of
such an organization are many. 1t
will enable each grower to keep in
touch with the other mem bers and to
profit by their experiences. 1t will
furnish an expert inspector who will

TRACED TO RACING STABLES
Slang Phrase, "Getting His Goat" So
Popular Now, Had Origin In
Actual Occurrence.

Unlike many other vivid or pictur
esque slang expressions, which en-
rich and enliven the English language,
but the source of which is either OBJ
scure or totally unknown, the origin
Of the phrase, ito get his goat" can
fortunately be traced Until 1t came
into popular use, about half a dozen
years ago, the phrase was confined to
racing stables and to running horses
and was part of the language of the
racetrack.
1t was formerly the rather wide
spread custom among owners of rae
ing stock to keep a goat in the same
stall with a horse, either from the
superstitious belief in mascots or
from the more scientific belief that
the goat impaired some of his
strength or magnetism to the horse.
Ardent friendships have been known
to spring up between goats and
horses living thus in close intimacy
and sleeping together.
