Farmers Letter.
BY CAPT. T. r. PECK
PROBLEM OF PROPER SEED
SELECTION.

Oeeu anu anu EeTtlllZer ln-
spector.
Of the many problems that
confront the progressive farmer
to-day, none is worthy of mere
consideration than that of proper
seed selection, and is feared
that in many instances this i'm
portant point receives only sec.
ondary consideration.
Just as we find many farmers
making the mistake of buying
low grade fertilizers, because
they cost less money, so we find
an equal number buying the seed
that can be had for the least
cost. and in both cases it lie the
farmer himself who suffers and
loses money.
When the farmers realize that
some other consideration than
the price must be the guiding
factor in buying, and that tie
lowest priced seed are the cheap
est, but that the purest seed are
the cheapest in the end, then
will we see q marSed improve
ment in the seed conditions in
! the state. II the farmer will
demand the purest seed and
will have no other, the dealers
will be compelled to meet the
demand.
The initial cost of the low
grade seed may be less, but when
harvest time comes around, a
little figuring will show that the
supposed cheap seed was not
near the bargain that-it appear
ed TO be 10 the spring: The two
main requisites of good seed
are purity and high termination,
and when seed shows up well
in these two factors. it lie reason.
able to suppose that such seed
will give d good stand If planted
under the proper conditions.
PURITY.
By purity is meant as:high as
possible . percentage Of pure
seed. and freedom from other
kinds Of seed, dirt, sticks chaff
etc.
The various seeds of the Ten
nessee markets this year, show,
upon examination, q very wide
range in purity, running from as
low as 40 per cent to 80 per cent
pure seed.
Now, suppose that the seed OF
40 per cent purity could be
bought for one half of what the
seed Of 80 per cent purity would
cost, does it look like economy
to buy the low grade seed, even
at that price? 1t certainly would
mot be economy, for II two bush.
els Of the low grade geed were
sown-on the same area as one
bushel Of the high grade seed,
| you would still fall 10 per cent
short Of having the same. num-
Der Of pure seed on the plot
where the low grade seed were
used. -
But this is not by any means
the only objection to the use Of
low grade seed. The difference
of 60 per cent between 40 per
cent and the total Of 100 per
cent 10 made up largely Of OBJ
jectionable weed seed, which.
unfortunatelely, as q rule, have.
. high termination factor !.
These weed seed will probably
terminate At the same time, or
before the agricultural seed,
and as theyrare in the majority
tits more than probable that
they will choke ont the few good
seed, and the farmer will find
himself with ! fine crop Of weeds
when he expected ! crop Of clo-
yer, red top Or timothy. The
example given above "a Al ex-
|ceptional case, and snch very
low grade seed are not 81 all

consuming the plant food of the
soil, in some cases more rapidly
than the yaluabld plants. thus
robbing the growing plants Of
what they would otherwise get.
The bad effects of the use of
impure seed may be summed up
under the following heads:
/. A poor stand. due to the
limited number Of good seed in
q given amount.
2. Choking out or retarding
the growth Of the crop.
8. Consumption Of plant food
thereby depriying the crop Of
the food necessary to it's growth.
4. Lowering the grade, and
consequently the market value
of the crop.
5. Rendering the seed from
such a crop absolutely unfit to be
used as seed for planting.
TERMINATION.
After having satisfied our.
selves as to the purity OF q seed,
We still have no definite evil
dence that the seed is all it
should be. 1t is possible to find
a seed absolutely free from for
eign seed which for some reason
won't give o stand even when
planted in liberal amounts. Such
q condition is termed low germi-
mating power, and means that
the seed will not terminate or
sprout. This condition may be
attributed to the seed being
sterile, or unfertile, caused by
improper mixture Of pollen dur
ing growth. 1t may ais be due
to age of the seed, as some spe-
|cies of seed lose their germinat.
ling power after they reach GER
tain age. For example, rye,
that shows q high termination
the first year, is liable to show
up very difficult if sown the sec
ond or third year after being
harvested.
Bad handling and improper
storage are other factors that eff.
sect the termination Of seed
and should be guarded against.
After we have determined the
purity and termination factors
|of seed to be what they should,
we still have another factor to
consider, aud this is whether or
mot the seed is adapted to our
|climate. This can be determin-
led by inquiry into where the
seed was grown; if the climate
where the seed was grown is
similar to our climate, then we
can reasonably presume that it
should thrive here.
The pure seed law requires
THAT each package of seed con.
tanning one pound or more, Of
Tered for sale ia Tennessee shall
be accompanied BY q plainly
printed statement certifying:
/. Name of seed.
\ 2. Full name and address, Of
seedman, dealer or agent.
B. A statement Of the purity
Of the seed contained, specify

Ing the kind and percentage Of
Impurities. III

examination Of these statements
pm seed packages will be we'll

bis seed. The farmer should
bear III mind the fact that these
statements cannot always be re-.

reason to believe that . seed is|
