BARNEY SENDS
SEED WARNING
STATE FOOD AND DAIRY INSPEc-
TOR TELLS FARMERS TO
CARE IN SELECTION.

The necessity of watching the seeds
that are to be used for this years crop
has led w. B. Barney, state food and
dairy inspector, to send out warnings
to the farmers Of the state.
The notice is little later than
usual, as the authorities have not
deemed the matter so urgent this year
on acco 1t Of the large amount Of good
seed within the state. Nevertheless,
the department wants every farmer
to continue the practice of testing the
seed in the spring.
There is a larger supply of good
seed corn in Iowa this year than we
have had in many years., declared
Mr. Barney. But we want every far
mer to test his seed before planting
so that the matter of poor seed can
be determined while there is time to
remedy it instead Of waiting until fall
for the results.
Farmers who must buy seed corn
should exercise good judgment where
and what kind of seed they purchase.
Because seed is comparatively plent-
full does not signify that all the corn
will produce good results.
1--WE have found in recent years that
the advice to farmers in the spring to
ascertain the value of the seed had
practically done away with complaint
Of poor quality seed. We get but few
complaints now. A few years ago we
were swamped with protests from far
mers
THE testing Of the seed has put
into the pocket of every farmer
who has adopted the custom. We can
get results when we can show the
grower how his income will be in
creased. Good seed has added many
bushels to the yield of each acre. 1t
will continue to do it as long as the
farmers will take little trouble every
spring to look into the quality of their
seed"
