MAhY DuLlhho SAVED
 BY BUYING PURE SEED
Care in Selecting Parent For 1918 Crop Win Mean Better Yield at liar vest-2o Per Cent More.

In buying seed farmers should care fully consider the following points if they expect to get the worth of their money: First. where the seed was grown, second, quality of the seed; third. percentage of germination: fourth. percentage of trash fifth. purity Of seed. sixth. presence and kind of weed seed.
 Seed must become acelimated to any partiCCla" section before they will produce the best crops. This often t2kos two or three years, It is always best 10 buy seed from neighbor fl he has them with the proper quality and purity However. 1t will often be nee cssarS to resort to the seed houses In that ease | statement should be SC cured from them stating where the seed Was grown. For instance. seed Is often shipped ill from some distant state for local use. and the farmer may be greatly disappointed with re suits. lt lS better to use seed grown east or west of the locality where 1t Il.
  ble distance north or south It takes only q few miles north or south to make one day difference in the season. Many farmers make the mistake of buying inferior seed because of the high cost of good seed Yet the in crease in yield due to the better seed will pay for the difference in the cost of the seed several times. providing the quality k secured. \ small sam pie of seed can be sent to the Arkan- sas Experiment. Station at Fayetteville and test will be run free of charge. lt pays 10 know
 Farmers often fail to consider the percentage of trash that seed con tain The farmer wants seed. not trash. yet the percentage of weed seed. par ueles ot sand and dirt or sticks may make up fifteen or twenty per cent of the weight of the seed and such seed arc worth only so or S5 per cent as much as the clean seed.

MATCHING EGGS N
 OLD FASHION WAY
TIMELY SUGGESTIONS IN SSlEC- TON OF EGGS, NESTING PLACES, AND FEEDING CHICKS BY A POULTRY SPECIALIST.

When hatching eggs with hens. 1t Is always desirable to select quiet place and make a nest of clean hay or straw in shallow box or barrel laid on it's side It is preferable to have this nest on the ground if there is no danger of floods during ralnN weather. Make the nest big enough so the eggs can not be rolled out easily In deep nests there is danger oi breaking eggs when the hen leaves or gets on the nest.
 Select a quiet hen that has been LroodN for several days and place her on nest With few cull eggs or nest eggs in 1t, and allow her to stay OF these eggs tor two or three days before giving her the eggs to be matched
 It Is espe Cially advisable to make sure that tae hen Is free from lice. Lousy hens stand on the eggs and pick instead of keeping the eggs warm. 1T the htn has lice dust her freely with Persian insect powder or take bit ot blue ointment the size of pea and rub It on the skin under the vent Both remedies can be bought at any Qrug store. and are effective Repeat to kill the lice that hatch. Provide feed and water where the hen can leave the nest and get to them easily. Cracked cocu and wheat make good r.. .J

REV. VAN sLYkE GIVEN HEARTY
WELCOME

In coming to this field from Grange
Vile, Rev. A. f. Van Slyke, the new
pastor of the Church of Christ, has
but followed precedent. The pastors OF
the Baptist. Methodist and Presby terian
churches, and even his predecessor,
Rev. ID. Lloyd ID. Morgan, came here
from Grangevllle before him. Rev. II.
A. Wicker. of the Presbyterian church,
came first, followed by Mr. Morgan.
TWO years ago, Rev. Fred II. Thomp-
son was called from Graugeville to the
Passionate of the Baptist church, and
then year later came Rev w p
Jinnett from Grangeville to serve the
Methodist church. SO, of course, when
Mr.. Morgan resigned last fall from the
pastorate of the local Christian church
to accept a call to Palouse City, it
seems that ii was but natural for the
congregation to look to Grangevlle for
capable successor whom they have
found in Rev. Van Slyke.-Tribune.
