TERMINATION TESTS.

The farmers Of Northwestern Min-
nesota should, by all means, test the
growing qualities of their seed grain.
Many tests taken at the Northwest
ern Experiment station show that
there is much seed that will not grow.
One sample of No. l Hard wheat test
ed ninety per cent, another only six
ty-five per cent. A sample of barley
tested ninety-nine per cent, while am
other tested only thirty per cent.
Many other cases might be mention
ed. There is much low terminating
seed in many localities Corn should
be tested. 1t is absolutely necessary
to do this Send a sample of your
seed to the Northwestern Experiment
station for a termination test, or do
the testing yourself The main thing
is to do it and do it TAT once. ~

Perilous CheNlna.


One of the troubles of most European
armies is that those soldiers who can
get hold of it insist on using that ter
r1ble explosive cordite as if it were
sort of chewing gum. It's popularity Is
due to the fact that when chewed in
small quantities 1t has a stimulating
and exhilarating effect, like small doses
of alcohol. Its taste, too, is sweet
cordite being three dfths nitrogfycerin,
an explosive which is sugary to the
taste. When chewed in large quaint
ties cordite becomes more powerful
in it's effects, bringing on blissful
state OF ecstasy and sometimes max
ing the victim of the habit see visions.
But the real danger of the habit lies
in the fact that though nftroglycerin
will only explode when given very
hard blow or touched by an electric
spark, there is always possibility that
the grinding of exceptionally hard teeth
might provide the necessary hard blow.
Within the last few years at least
three soldiers-two German and one
Austrian-have been blown to bits, the
use of cordite as a chewing gum being
the suspected cause.
