Are You Going or Coming ?

II you openly oppose, or even fall to
take advantage of the benefits Of farm
ers' organizations, you are headed in
the wrong direction, and are exerting an
influence that tends to give others the
wrong attitude toward farming.
The man who feels that there is moth
ing for him to learn about farming, and,
therefore, no need for him to study his
business, has very imperfect concep'
ton of the great business of agriculture.

Unless you see something ahead to &c

thing that improves farming improves
farmers and vice versa. You owe 1t to
your business to take an active interest

Order Seeds Early.

Merchants and clerks are anxious that
the Christmas shoppers buy early 80 as
to avoid the rush which until the last
year or two has been almost killing on
the clerks. There is good sense in the
request to buy presents early and there
is no sense In delaying until the last
minute.
The seedsmen would appreciate 1t II
the same advice could be impressed
upon those who buy seeds. Order seeds
early and you help the scotsman select
for sou his choicest stock. Wait until
planting time and you take chance OF
not getting anything, or at best only
what may he left Of what was big
stock.
You may not have q fit place to store
seeds II they came to you weeks before
planting time, but that need not keep
you from placing your order early. The
scotsman then takes all storage risk and
at the right time can ship your order
In this way your order goes on the early
order list and you get the best In stock
II everybody would place orders early
the scotsman would know pretty nearly
what stock he was going TO run low OF
and would order more. But that Is theiI
affair. II you want the seeds tested be-
fore you buy get the sample early. They
will not hold the stock from which your
sample is taken after sales season starts
First come, first served, 10 the general
rule ip all mercantile lines, and 1t Is just
what your rule Is for the stuff you have
to sell.

it by toning the nerves, enriching the
blood, and giving new strength and
health to the whole body. 1t doesn't do
this by means of alcohol or forming
drugs, because it contains none. Its
strength and health giving power is due
TO pure Olive Oil and the HypophOs-

other for its tonic value. Here, for the
first time, they are combined and the re-
suit is real nerve, blood and body

Lettuce In Cold Frames.

Those who are anxious to secure early
lettuce should know the varieties that
are best to start early, and then they
should know how to get advantage OF
the bad weather in the early spring.
Purchase lettuce seed by the ounce.
This will pay because you get so much
more seed, and then II It should happen
that you fail with one or two beds, you
can try again Immediately without wait
ing to secure seed.
The varieties known as Big Boston,
and Grand Rapids are satisfactory for
early lettuce.
Make good sized cold frame. Secure
window or hotbed sash and build the
frame or box to suit the sash. Build the
boxes any good day in winter, and just
as soop as you can spade the soil inside
the frames, do 80, and mix with ita lib
eral quantity of we'll rotted stable ma
nure.
Cover up if there is apt to be more
zero weather. If you feel that the back
bone of winter has been broken, plant
the lettuce seed, covering to a depth OF
about Oue-fourth Of an inch. Place
glass over the beds. II it is severe after
the seed is sown, cover the glass with
straw or boards until the weather mod
crates somewhat.
Lettuce thus planted will show gain
of from six to ten weeks. When moder
ate weather comes the glass may be re-
moved. II too thick, much may be
transplauted in the spring.

An Early Start In Beans.

During the last of March is the proper
time to plant the first planting of beans
to secure the earliest crop. This may
sound unreasonable to most of our read
ers, but wait until you have heard our
plan.
If you have q greenhouse or conserva-
tory, or an enclosed porch or even a
large sunny window in the house or base
ment, you are prepared to make the
right start for an early crop of beans.
The great trouble in planting beans in
the open very early is that the seed will
rot 10 the earth, or the beans will be
killed by late frost. All these Difficult
ties may be avoided.
If you wish q hundred hills Of early
beans, secure some variety you know Is
right, and then take one hundred three
or four inch flower pots and fill two
thirds full of good garden soil which has
been saved from last autumn, or gather
ed some day when there Is little or no
frost in the ground. Drop five or six
beans ON top of the soil in each pot, and
then cover with more than half an inch
of earth, and press firmly and water.
Place them in the light where the tenn
perature will not 90 far below fifty. In
a short time the beans will have started
to grow, and by the time danger Of frost
is past, those beans will be quite large.
The pots can be carried to the garden
and gentle tap with piece of wood
will cause the ball of earth and roots to
leave the pot, and it is easy to plant the
entire hill of beans into the open bed.
The growth may appear little spind-
ling, and not look as If there was much
prospect of early beans, but few weeks
in the open with bright warm weather
will make a wonderful change. The
beans will come at least a month sooner
than those planted in the open bed after
the danger of frost Is over. They Will
continue to bear longer, and taking
everything into consideration, it is a
paying little bit of work for those who
delight in having an early garden.
II is commonly supposed beans re-
quire only poor soil to produce a good
crop. This is an error. Better have
good, rich. light soil and the crop will be
much heavier.

In accordance with the action of th'

citation the coming year, in assisting tht
members of the Association to grow bet
ter seed stock, especially of potatoes
The growing Of potatoes for seed Is ar
important branch Of the potato busines,
aud should increase with proper encour'
agement.
There is much complaint on the part
OF the southern growers who use our
seed, that great loss is suffered from
impurities of variety and from diseased
stock.
The situation is such that unless there
is Immediate improvement in the quality
of seed stock sent out from the state,
the southern growers will seek other po'
tato centers for their seed.
To improve the seed stock of the
Maine grower, q rigid inspection system
will be established by the Seed Improve
ment Association with the assistance OF
the Department Of Agriculture. This
system will include careful inspection
Of the seed before planting, by men who
are familiar with the diseases which in
feet Maine potatoes, and further inspec-
tions at blossoming time and before har-
vest.
Rules will be made covering the hand
ling of the seed and of the crop tending
toward elimination Of disease and vari-
ential impurities.
Potatoes which reach standard of
purity and of freedom from disease will
be certified and recommended by the
State Agricultural Department and the
Seed Improvement Association.
A portion of the cost Of this inspec-
tion work must be borne by the grower
who will be repaid in the higher prices
received for his seed stock. Careful
growers who realize the need and desire
TO improve the standard of the potato
crop Of Maine are invited to write the

tary Of the Seed Association at an early
date.
