Every farmer at this time Of
the year should be considering
seriously the questson of where
to obtain seed for the nextyear's
crop. The scientific farmer has
long ago learned that it does not
pay to plant any kind Of seed
bought at any place possible. In
the paragraphs following a few
of the points that determine
seed will be taken up in such a
manner as to enable the farmer
to know how to tell good seed.
In the first place vitality must
be considered. Old seed, that
lis, seed not grown the previous
year, will usually germinate to
a certain extent and grow, but
good results cal never be ex.
pected from such seed. Usually
| the plant is weaker and slower
in growth; especially is this true
of garden crops, and some Of the
smaller cereals. Corn will grow
about as we'll when two or three
years Of age as new seed, and
very little difference can be no.

do not 60 to the other extreme
aud purchase seed that is not
mature, due probably to being
harvested too early or to bad
weather conditions. A rainy
season when grains are in the
shock or ripe in the field will Of.
ten cause the seeds to swell or
even sprout. Such seeds when
planted can never produce as
strong plants as if they had been
harvested and threshed while 10
q dry condition. Even after har-
vesting grains, especially corn,
they may be damaged by too
cold weather, when not thorough
ly dry, causing the kernels to
shrivel and decrease greatly in
vitality. 1t is always advisable
to test all kinds Of farm seeds,
even though they were grown at
home and good care taken of
them. Lustre is another splen.
did indicator Of vitality; old and
dead seeds always have a dull
appearance. Other conditions
being equal, always select as
plump seed as possible. The
reason for this is Manifesto
plant in it's early stage of growth
must live on plant food stored
up in the seed, and necessarily
q plump seed contains more food
allowing a more vigorous growth.
The weight of a given amount of
seed is usually a good indicator
Of its vitality-the heavier the |
seed the more. desirable it is.

being careful to avoid especially |
the sinking smut or any seed
that is mouldy or has a scabby

own seed or buy from a nearby
neighbor when possible. Before
making a purchase be sure you
are buying from a reliable deal

will give you the grade aud va.
riety that you pay for.
Another point to be considered
in buying seed is its breeding,
not meaning necessarily that it
should have pedigree, but that
it should have been improved
through selection. About the
only practical and cheap way to
do this is for the farmer to raise
his own seed. Take for exam

seed from . reliable corn grower

and from this start, select

Why Clearance Sales Are Necessary.

In very interesting article in the
January Woman's Home Companion, en-
titled Behind the Scenes at the Bargain
Sale appears the following.
Clearance sales are calendar events
now--regular 'turnovers' of stocks that
recur with the consistency and regular
| ity of clockwork.
| "The question of turning over his
stock is paramount in the mind of every
| department head in America; he must
succeed in turning over his share of the
| load of merchandise the house carries,
just so often before inventory time. His
position depends upon his success in
doing this.
TO accomplish this periodical process
according to the scientific processes now
in vogue clearance sales take place at
stated intervals; when, to save carry
ing over of stocks from one season to
another, with the consequent expense
and loss, all goods are treated with scant
respect to actual values.
"'Well try it and see,' was the com
ment and order.
"The same newspapers were employed
as mediums to publish the announce
Inent and the same space involved as
was their custom whenever advertising
sale OF this character. The heading OF
the advertisement read
1.-TWO hundred and fifty women's
handsome lingerie dresses, at $40.
These dresses are the pick Of our stylish,
seasonable stock, and embody all the
dainty touches demanded by the women
of fashion and discrimination. They
are absolutely the best values in town at
the price, which is considerably below
what would ordinarily be asked in reg
ular selling, etc
The outcome of the sale was as the
'ad' man predicted. The sale was a
failure, although the day was an ex-
fine one, an April day, clear |
and crisp, ideal for shopping pnrpises.

The city of Houston, Texas, spent
$1,000 to send a representative abroad
to study municipal conditions, and the
representative returned with recon-
mendation that the salary of the mayor
be raised from $4,000 to $4,000 and
that the official be allowed a four-year
term. Such an expensive taste might
have been acquired this side of the

increased salary. For a city like Hous-
ton ten thousand dollars seems rather
large for mayors salary.
