AZ REMINDER FOR OUR FARMER
FRIENDS.

It is not easy for some Of us to
realize during this kind Of 4 weather
how near we are TO the spring time
and the seed sowing time. In q
few weeks the SNOW will be adj gone
and the rush time with farmers will
be here. And now rs the time to
take ansdnventory of all the defects
in the farm implements and harness
and have them repaired forthwa: h.
Don't wait until tomorrow. The TO-
morrow men are failures on the farm
and everywhere else. Commence
this season. work by resolving not
to put off until tomorrow what can
be done today. ri
And this is the appointed time TO
commence testing your seed, and do
not confine your testing to seed corn
alone, Last year much of the small
grain was so badly damaged in the
shock that 1t is wholly unfit for
seed Get your seed oats and barley
from some farmer who stacked his
srain, ie you neglected to- stack your
own. The chances are against seed
grain threshed from the shock.
