Pretentious Recognition of Fourth Be-
sun In 1925.
The beginning of the dig Fourth Of
July celebrations probably took place
with the fftieth anniversary. which
fell on Monday in 1925. at New York
the reception to General Lafayette
gave intense interest to the occa-
sion. An immense procession. a grand
review. receptions. races. regattas,
banquets, followed each other without
intervals, Castle Garden being the
scene of the evening display of fire
works
In the forties and fifties came peri
cd of great professions, larger reviews
and more splendid displays of FIRE
works.
Wherever one finds a group of Amer
icans on the GLORIOUS Fourth" at
home or abroad. on land or sea. they
are always unsatisfed unless the ex-
plosive and demonstrative spirit of the
Fourth of July is asserted in no IN
certain manner and their patriotism is
satisfied

Patriotic prsparations.

Here is money. my boy. to go down to the
store
Some punches OF crackers to buy
And rockets and pinwheels and maybe
balloons,
For tomorrow's the Fourth Of July.
And the crackers will bang with a beau
tiful noise
And the rockets will burst overhead
And fall in a glorious fountain OF FIRE
Or stars OF blue. yellow and red.
You can get some torpedoes to add to the
din
And perhaps a toy pistol as wen.
With plenty o. cartridges. blanks. to be
used
The smoke and the racket 10 swell
And do not forget on your way . stop in
At the drug store ard set z supply
OF arnica. court plaster, lotions and lint
For tomorrow the Fourth OF July.

ONE VARIETY OF BARLEY
Establishing Seed Center So That All
Grain Shipped From Each Station
May Be Uniform and Free From
Noxious Weeds and
Other Seeds.
(By Bert BALL


The Crop Improvement Committee
Of the Council Grain Exchanges is
further extending its efforts to i'm
prove the quality OF seed grain. The
latest movement is TO induce a group
OF farmers surrounding an elevatol to
meet upon call and decide which va
riety Of grain is best adapted to that
soil and climate, and demand eraded
price at the elevator, and to breed up
this single variety so that it can be
shipped in carloads, unmixed with
other grains and the seeds of noxious
weeds.
1t is a well known fact that grain
which is of one standard variety /
most invariably commands a premium,
and 1t will be only few years before
each locality y hich takes up this mat
ter viii become celebrated as a seed
growing center for that particular
type. and there win be a call from
NOR shiftless localities for this seed
in the same latitude.
The one important object which the
late Wiley's controversies instilled in
to the minds of the grain trade is that
the quality must be improved, and that
by so doing, all OF these petty quarrels
as to grading and dockage win be
eliminated.
They have taken this matter up in
various localities. and they are sue
ceeding beyond their fondest hopes in
getting these pure bred seed circl
organized, especially around the farm
ers' elevators, where It seems TO be an
easy matter to get their membership
interested In breeding the type best
adapted to that particular locality.
