LOOK FOR THE LABEL

The new Minnesota Seed Law: which
is effective, now, reqnires that all agri-
cultural seed sold, for seeding purposes
must be labeled. The law does not pro-
hibit the sale Of any seed, but states
that the label must disclose certain facts,
such as the purity Of the seed, gernina-
tion, and whether or not it contains any
seeds Of quack grass, dodder. perennial
sow thistle or .anada thistle. BESIDES
other information. It also gives the privt-:
lege Of selling seed with the Label fH'tNot
cleaned seed All buyers Of seeds are
urged to be very carful to see that; It is
properly labeled. Do not buy seed mark
ed Not cleaned seed unless 1t is abso-
lutely necessary:-W. L. Oswald, in
charge of Seed Laboratory.

REDUCE FIRE INSURANCE RATES

Buffalo Journal: The state insurance
commissioner reports fire losses to
have been $1,50O,000 less in 1913 than
the previous year, due largely to the
prosecutions for incendiarism. He
does not expect any reduction in rates
to follow. Now if move will be made
to reduce the expenses OF the lnsuf
ance companies there may at some
time come relief to the burdened in
sured. From As to IS per cent OF the
amount paid for insurance is used for
expenses. The commission to local
agents has nearly doubled, and this
was brought about by non-board COM
panies making an attractive commits
sion rate to agents to get business.
The agent would naturally give 6 large
share Of his business to- the company
paying the highest commission, and to
get business the other companies had
to "come across" with the same rate.
The agent takes no risk, has no capi-
tai invested and can avoid premium
losses by cancelling policy, yet a
merchant gets as large a percentage
of profit on but few lines as the in
surance agent g commission. The rate
should be limited by law, and agents
should give bonds and take out a
license which means something. They
should be held responsible for over
writing risks, and should inspect the
premises insured. Besides that, their
business should be checked by q state
officer. Fire insurance is a big bill for
the business men to nay, and it should
be done on a strictly business basis.

FIR
iss5li, 8
1nd,tstry of
an teinpt has been to dete nine
the source ssof the infection thereverS d
herd was found to be infected ith hog
cholera. II was not always possible to-
do this, and In quite a. few cases there
was some doubt as to the exact way in
which cholera had gained entrance to
thea herds.if Essssssi rs $50. Ets$Si
The reports of these Investigate
were presented alta recent meeting Of
the United States Live Stock Sanitary.
Association, in Chicago. The sources Of
Infection were divided into two great
classes, designated distant and near
by'' sources. It was surprising to learn.
that in 45s per cent of the herds infected,
the disease had been spread from dis.
tant sources. The remainder-b5 per cent
appeared to have been infected from
nearby sources. ssss@45 Sl*.4zf3
In 80 per cent of the cases the infection
seemed to be due to the visiting Of the
neighbors, or the exchange of work be-:
tween neighboring farmers. 1t has long
been thought that this was a common
mode of carrying infection, and the re-.
suits of the Investigations appear to
verify It,. Birds appear to be guilty of
spreading the infection in over one
fourth Of the cases. Sparrows and crows
have been under suspicion for a long
time, and it would appear that the sus-
picion has been well grounded.
Although none OF the above figures
were obtained from Minnesota, we have
no reason to believe that conditions here
are radically different from those in the
states where the investigations were
carried on.-H. Preston Hoskins, Assist

SUNLIGHT

Sunlight is one of the best and cheap
est disinfectants at our disposal. and we
should take advantage of this fact at
every opportunity In the construction
of barns or shelters of any kind for ani-
mails, ample provision should be made
for the admission of maximum amount
of sunlight. Southern exposure Is de-
sirable, that is, having the majority OF
the windows facing the south. The
warmth thus provided in cold weather
is desirable, and much of the excessive
heat in summer can be avoided by pro-
viding suitable curtains or screens. Most
disease germs are easily killed by direct
sunlight, as has been repeatedly shown
by experiments.-H. Preston Hoskins,

First, that the prices received for
wheat by the Saskatchewan farmer
have dropped by steadily decreasing
figure from 81 Is cents per bushel IN
1909 to sc 1-8 cents per bushel in
1913. Second, that during these same
years the cost Of production has stead.
ily increased. Third, that the profit

THE DAIRY cows RATION


Since It Is important that a cow should.
have enough feed to satisfy the appetite,
the proportion of coarse feed to grain
must be adjusted to her actual needs.
Roughage, in general way; should be
fed according to her size, allowing two
pounds of hay per hundredweight when
it is the only roughage used. When
silage is used, the general rule may be
to feed one pound of hay and three
pounds Of silage per hundredweight and
the balance Of theanutrients should be
provided In concentrates. except that
when roots are fed they will take the
place of part Of the grain at the rate
Of ten pounds OF roots for one pound Of
grain. These direction are only general,
as in practice It will be found that spare,
big-bodied cows will take relatively more
roughage. IS. --... - szz. IT. r

Husbandry, University Farm, st. Paul,

democratic banquet at tlh .West hotel
IN n Minneapoli tuesday night was
very largely attended many from out
side of the cities being present.
It was evident from the spirit of the
meeting and the speeches made that
the emocrats have taken heart from
Wilson. S. ..5..sS s :es.s S q: &
Various threatened storms did not
break and predicted ructions did not
materialize. Ss . =s. .:s. s..
Hardly 9 Democrat of prominence
in Minnesota was absent, the. notable
exception being Daniel w. LaWler OF
st. Paul. f5s & ss3 s.zs3.
The two big facts apparently shown
by the gathering were the continued
ascendency Of, William Jennings Bryan
as the idol Of Minnesota Democrats
and the dominance Of National Com
mitteeman f. B. Lynch so far as the
state committee is concerned.
Applause Greets Bryan's Name
Not even Woodrow Wilson Is name
drew the wild applause that greeted
Bryan 8 every time it was mentioned.
Bryan's picture on the screen always
brought tremendous ovation.
The banquet was an old fashioned
slashing anti Republican gathering, in
which the speakers took mighty wal
lops at the Tt:s.wickedness = Of Repub-
licans and all their works and urged a
"no, compromise" fight all along the
line. t:.,.s.. -
From a political standpoint the
three-hour session Of the state central
committee was most important. The
net result of the gathering was to
show the so called Lynch crowd firmly
in the saddle. -. .."~..:- d,
The committee. kept religiously
away from even a hint Of slatemaking
and no mans candidacy was indirect
ly mentioned. sS-.T ~.
This no doubt was due to the fact
that Lynch. did not at the time have
candidate to submit for the cap
proval' of the committee.
F. A. Pike of st. Paul, z. III. Austin
Of Minneapolis and Frank "A. Day of
Fairmont led forlorn hope fight as
against the plans Of the committee.
~ Only One Brief Contest p.
This fight came. on the proposition
first advanced by Chairman 0 'Brien
that some method be devised for per-
fecting county. and precinct organiza-
tion throughout the state--a thing
which under the new law cannot be
done by county candidates as in for
mer times. ~. . s-~
It. finally was voted to call county
mass meetings in all counties to name
county committees and elect dele
gates to. state mass meeting to name
