Treatment of Seed

quite frequently we come across
man who doubts the value OF
such treatment. This may be
due to several reasons. 1t is pos
sible that he used a poor grade
of formalin, which gave him
weak solution; or possibly he was
not careful in his methods OF
treatment, Before he stops tc
analyze his methods he jumps al
the conclusion that seed treat
ment is humbug, because afte,
treating his grain he still has
smut. Let the man who is skep-
tical of this treatment seed two
plots, using smutty seed, -fol
one plot, seed thoroughly treated
with a normal solution: for the
other, untreated seed. Then
from his results in the fall he can
draw his conclusions.
A most striking example OF
what seed treatment will do came
to me a few days ago. Mr.. j. c.
Peterson who lives Is miles north
east of Ekalaka gave me his ex-
perience along this line, which is
about as follows:
During the season of 1913 |
bought my seed grain and seeded
1T without any treating, as it was
late and | thought it was very
free from smut. When | solo
that crop at the elevator they
docked me 20 pounds per bushe
for smut grain or Just one-thiro
of every bushel; so with 6O-cent
wheat you can readily figure
where my profits were. From
this crop of smut | lost $3.50.
concluded that here was splend.
III opportunity to test the forma-
lin treatment; so the following
spring | used this wheat for seed,
by cleaning it through a tanning
mill as much as possible. Then
| gave it a thorough soaking with
a standard solution of formaIin.
On harvesting this crop could
find onl y trace of smut now
and then, and it graded up as
we'll as any in my neighborhood.
GO not recommend using smuty
seed grain, but this experience
serves to convince me Of the val.
ue OF the formalin treatment.
We have numerous other re-
ports from men who have veri
fled to their own satisfaction the
value OF seed treatment, Last
summer one man found that his
oats were so badly smutted that
his horses simply refused te
eat the grain. He admitted tina,
he had learned a costly lesson,
