POOR SEEDS
RAISES PRODUCTION COST

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL /
LEGE, Corvallis. Ore, Aug 24.-Of |
the 1900 tests made on samples OF
seed submitted by citizens of oregon
to the Cooperative Seed-Testing Ia
boratory of the agricultural college,
but twenty-five per cent were from
farmers That is, there were 800
samples submitted. but since several
OF them came in packages of two or
more, considerably fewer than 800
farmers sent seed to be tested. The
remainder OF the samples sent came
from seed houses, which in turn sold
tested seed to the farmers. Doubt
less a good many farmers tested their
own seed before planting II, or got
the tests made from some other
source so that probably more than
800 farmers planted tested seed. But
in view of the fact that the govern
ment pays the salary of seed ex-
pert during the entire year, and the
office ana equipment are provided
by the college to do this work,
much larger use of the seed testing
facilities might be made to advan-
tage.
ANY farmer who wishes to do so
may prove this for himself. Let MIN
90 into his corn field, count off ten
hills each way, and then count the
hills actually present within the
square thus formed. Then let him
compare the number OF hills theo'
reticaily present. and he will sec
whether or not he Is losing a con
siderable portion Of his crop and MI
profits by having planted some in
ferior seed. Within the ten Dy-ter
space there should be about SO'
stalks. II 10 hills are missing there
will be about 27O stalks within tn
area. This is 80 per cent crop. AM
If he Is getting As bushels per acre n
should be getting so bushels. This
bushels represents a clear loss, sine
IL costs as much to grow the .
buhel crop as to grow the so bushe
crop.
II this same condition Is apple

er crops on the farm, 1t is seen tina

A Flower Hint,

Sprays of flowers with woody stems
such as roses, lilacs, etc. should have
half an inch of the bark stripped off
before putting them in water. Sappy
stems. as tulips, hysacinths, etc.
should have their stems cut crosswise
about half an inch. BY such means
the water reaches the stem more
quickly and the flowers will keep
fresh longer.
