VIII it Pay to Test Seed Corn?

Every year farmers are urged by
agricultural schools, county agents,
farm papers, and other agencies to
test seed corn and other farm seeds
intended for planting. Many CONNER
cial firms have considered the testing
of seed corn so important as to war;
rant them in distributing material
free, or at cost prices. with which to
make termination tests.
The question arises, "Why so mucn
agitation about seed corn testing 2"
Does it pay to test seed corn? That
can best be answered by referring to
conditions in our own section, West
Central Minnesota. As nearly as can
be estimated from recent reports no
less than 800, 900 acre of corn will be
planted in the fifteen counties en-
ploying county agents in Western
Minnesota.
Preliminary seed corn tests have
been made in number of counties
which indicate that on an average
practically 25 per cent of the seed
corn either fails to grow or gives a
weak termination. If man plants
corn only three-fourths of which will
grow he cannot expect to harvest more
than about that much Of a crop. With
corn yielding 40 bushels per acre, the
average yield secured last year which
we shall never expect to lower, it
does not take much calculation to find
that by using seed corn one.fourth of
which does not grow, that our yield
in fifteen counties would be decreased
over three and one-hslf million bus
hels having value of practically one
and one-half million dollars.
Then there is another viewpoint.
1t will take but little more than one
days conscientious work by each corn
gro Ver to test the amount of seed
corn needed by the average farmer in
this section. The return for the aver
age farmer in increased yield from
using tested seed corn compared to
using INFESTED, as above estimated,
would be practically $75. The more
corn that is grown the greater will be
the return.
Our own grown acclimated corn is
the best we can use, so far as a good
supply is available. 1t looks like
IT WILL PAY to test our seed.

URGED TO ATTEND
COUNTY CONFERENCE
ANTI-MACHINE COMMITTEE
MAKES STATEMENT.
Conditions Which Called Forth
the Conference Movement
Never More Apperent than
Now.

In view Of the misleading state
ments made by the machine newspap-
ers, the anti-machine conference COM
mittee makes the following statement: !:
The conference was not called in
the interests of any one candidate or
set of candidates. The movement is
bigger than the personality or candi-
dacy of anyone.
The anti.machine forces standing
together have it within their power
to. overthrow the machine.
The object of the conference is to
unite the anti-machine forces upon
a candidate for governor. With that
object in view the conference will as
semble in Minneapolis ON March 18th
and the committee calls upon all anti
machine republicans to attend the
county conferences of their respective
counties and otherwise aid in this
movement.
The conditions which called forth
the COu1GIGuCG mONSLuSuI were never
more apparent than just now. The
necessity of uniting the force is OPP
posed to the political machine that
dominates the party was never more
urgent.
The man indorsed by the con-
ference will be the man nominated as
the republican candidate for governor.

new REGULATIONS
ARE CONFIRMED
SALOON ORDINANCE is RE-
PEALED.
But New Ordinance with Same
Regulations Has Passed Its
First Reading and VIII Be in
Effect by April 7th.

Ordinance No. 81, relating to the
sale of Intoxicating liquors has been
repealed. "but its soul goes marching
on"
That's about the simplest way of
explaining just what has happened re-
garding the Ordinance No. 81, the re-
ferendum petition and Ordinance No.
SO.
The best of legal counsel united in
advising the commission last week
that the referendum petition could not
be withdrawn and that there was
nothing for the commission to do ex-
cept to repeal the ordinance or order
referendum election. AS the spon-
sors for the petition were desirous
that it be withdrawn, and there was
therefore no real division, the only
thing that remained to be done was to
dispose of the whole matter in legal
way.
In order to accomplish this it was
arranged that the ordinance against
which the protest was filed be re-
pealed and that the commission i'm
mediately pass new one containing
the same provisions. One change,
requiring a saloon keeper to be {
"male person" was made SO that the
two ordinances would not be identical
The new ordinance was given it'
first reading Tuesday evening ant
will be passed next Tuesday evening
1t will go in effect Is days later OF
April 9Th.
Three saloon licenses expire OF
March 31st and applications have beel
made for their renewal. AS the nev
ordinance will not be in effect, thes,
| licenses will not be renewed unit
April 7th, and these saloons will b.
| closed from April 1st to 9Th.

STAMP OUT CHOLERA.
Concerted Effort to Secure Dou-
bic Treatment Cheaply.

Hog cholera can be stamped out in
Stevens county if a concerned effort
be made and all hogs given the dou
BILE treatment. How this can be
brought about is explained in a letter
which P. E. Miller, Secretary of the
Farm Bureau. is sending out. The
letter follows:-
"At the annual meeting of the
Farm Bureau resolution was passed
instructing the Secretary to see what
could be done toward securing the
double system of vaccination for the
prevention of hog cholera.
81 have taken this matter up with
Dean Woods and have provided for a
systematic vaccination of all the hogs
in Stevens County, using the double
treatment if the farmers desire. This
will be done sometime in the spring
at about the time the majority of
spring pigs are old enough to vaccin-
ate.
"Dean Woods informs me that he
can arrange for enough tested virus
and serum from either the State La
boratory or from some other reliable
source and that they will send a
veterinarian out here who will be paid
by the day and not by the pig. to do
this work, that it will cost the
minimum and the whole county will
be covered.
"This means that the Committees
of the Farm Bureau should get togeth-
er and see what you can do for your
community. If you wish the hogs tc
be vaccinated the following data
should be secured: What date is the
most desirable to have this done fol
the whole community? (Tnis should
be sometime in the spring so that all
pigs can be vaccinated). Also secure
the number of hogs to be vaccinated
ESTIMATED as closely as possible.)
eff each committee will take this
matter up we can give the hogs OF
every farmer in Stevens county the
double treatment and effectively Stang
out the hog cholera in this county an
other season. This is proposition that
will mean thousands of dollars to the
county and is great piece of work
for our Farm Bureau Committees tc
accomplish
Kindly call your Farm Bureau
Committee together, talk this PROPOSE.
tion over and let me know what actor
you care to take. Dean Woods in
forms me that he must know the tota
number of hogs to be vaccinated al
soon as possible SO that arrangements
can be made to secure the virus anC
serum and also to have the veterin
arian dated for the time we wish tht
work to be DONE"
