Farmers who take the advice of
Carl NORMAN the assistant sec
rotary of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, will test
Every ear of corn this year before
they plant it. The seed corn sit
uation, Mr.. vrooman says, is
probably more serious now than
it has been for years. On account
IF the late, cold season and the
heavy frosts in the early part of
last October very little corn, es-
pncially in the northern half of
the corn belt, ripened naturally
and at the time of the first hard
flusts much of it still contained
Il large amount of moisture.
Testing seed corn is always a
i WISE precaution," said Mr.. Vroo-
man, "but this year it is a neces-
sary one. Every frmer should
test his seed this spring by the
individual ear test. No matter
how much confidence you have in
the man you buy seed from make
a test and know for yourself that
the seed is good. If the seed is
not good you can get some other
that is.
"A number of seed men who
have we'll constructed seed houses
report that they find the early
picked seed tests very satisfact-
.. Dry. but the seed picked later, even
if properly dried, is very unsatis-
factory. One test in northwest
ern Nebraska showed 90 per cent
of the early field picked seed to
be good, while only GO per cent
of the crib selected seed germi-
mated. In many sections of north
crn Iowa and Illinois the percent
age of good seed is much lower,
even when the seed was picked be-
fore frost and properly dried
while seed picked from the wagon
at lusking time or from the crib
is practically worthless as seed
One reason for this is that many
farmers in this section are rails
ing corn of a very large variety,
which requires full growing
season, and this corn did not
tripen before the early frosts.

The Nevada County picayune., 1916-07-13

recommended the adoption at the next election of Amendment No.
 13. which provides that counties, cities and towns may enact all
 local legislation through the in- itiative and referendum at spe-
 cial or regular elections as the necessities of the case require and the majority of the votes in the district affected shall approve? And is it not a more comm on sense way to let the voters in the community directly interested and familiar with local conditions settle the question involved by a majority vote than to refer it to a legislature composed of men unfamiliar with the local condit- ions and whose verdict at the last is little better than a guess :?

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
 S|DEL|GHTS

One of the most interesting fea- lures of the recent Democratic con ventlon at St. Louis Is the fact that 1t took lovely woman to force the only roll call demanded on the national platform. az we'll as to inspire the only real excitement that marked the convention.
 Votes for Women" was the issue that stirred up things The Mexican plank, nailed in at the last minute by the platform builders. did not create a ripple "Americanism" and ore paredness" received polite ovations. but 1t remained for the woman sui. rrage plank to start real fracas.
 Headed by Gov. Ferguson of Texas. the antis endeavored to wrench the suffrage plank from the platform. But President Wilson's feelings on the subject, as presented to the conven- ton by Senator Walsh of Montana, Were not to be ignored. And so, after a threehour battle in which the term political expediency" was used with telling effect, the antis were routed by vote of s9sh to 1s1h.
 The vote, however, does not tell the real story of the battle. which was one of the most vigorous and pie turesque ever staged at a national Democratic convention. Fifteen wom- en delegates fought from the floor on the side of the pro-suffragists, while hundreds of their sisters waved yell low pennants and cheered them on from the balconies. thunderstorm that almost drowned out the voices of the delegates AS they answered the roll call brought both the suffrage battle and the convention 10 A most melodramatIc finish.

LOCAL LEGISLATION

The State Democrat platform has this to say on local legisla ton. We believe the legisla- tures in the last decade have in- dlIged too much local and spe- cial legislation in disregard of the spirit of the constitution and we urge the next general assembly to reduce 0 a minimum this evil We favor such an amendment to tbe constitution as would etfec- tually curb this evil.
 The recent state convention was wise in denouncrng the evil of purely local legislation in the general assembly, but instead of trusting to the next legislature to enact a constitutional amend ment to remedy the evil would it not have been better to have

 Traffic is unusually heavy on northern roads, which means ad- ditional help in all departments.
 The Union Pacific Railroad is urging young people to learn Telegraphy. They call on us for from F to 20 men every few months, which we are unable to fill owing to the great demand for help on the southern roads.

 Senator Walsh did not mince ma ters in his argument f2r the adoption of the suffrage plank. Ne stated plain ly the adoption of the plank wa necessary as a matter of political ea pediency, adding that the presen political situation in this country wa a condition and not a theory.
