Plant Industry In Spraying-Spe-
ciaI Feature of Work.

The bureau Of plant industry has
been doing some extensive work in the
way of spraying for the control of APP

special feature of this work has been
the discovery of the Overwhelming of
the bitter-rot fungus on various small

Diplomatic Intercourse.

Col. e. M. House said at dinner

81 sometimes think that diplomacy
would be more successful if it were
more truthful and frank. The way
some diplomats treat one another, they
don't get any nearer to real, helpful
intercourse than the two celebrities
did.
'Two celebrities, one sufferer and
the other deaf, were introduced at a

SELECTING GOOD SEED
BEST GRADE is PRODUCED UN.
DER FAVORABLE CONDITIONS.
Look Over Various Parts Of Field and
Mark Parts Wanted for Seed
Should Be Stored Separate
From Other Grains.

(hy G. p. BULL ta University Farm St
The very best time to get good seed
is when 1t Is In the making. Good seed
is like good live stock-best when 1t
comes of good ancestry and is produced
under favorable conditions. So 1t is
/ that some parts of the fields are better
than others for the production of ma
ture, well-filled, sound seed; while 9TH
er parts will produce less valuable
product. Looking over the various
parts of the field before cutting, one
may select the parts of the crop to be
handled separately for the next years
seed supply. No extra work or fuss
ing" will be necessary before cutting.
The field may be cut as whole and
shocked, but extra care is necessary In
setting up shocks in the "seed" part of
the field A 12-bundle shock with two
cap sheaves will withstand unfavor-
able weather and protect the grain.
AS soon as the grain is field-dry it
should be stacked or threshed. The
seed grain should be put in a separate
stack and the cap sheaves should not
be allowed in with the other parts Of
the shocks. They may go in with the
feed or sale grain. When threshed the
seed grain should be stored separate
from other grain, thus keeping it I'M
mixed. When thus kept separate from
field to bin it will be ready at any time |
for the last analysis-the tanning mill |
before sowing.
1t is not an easy matter always to
judge the increased profit that comes
from saving seed grain in this manner.
soil and diseases have much
to do with the apparent physical con-
1ition Of the crop, but in the long
'un, such saving of seed will give much
stamina to the variety and increase it's
Yielding capacity.

The dewberry does best in dry ell

strawberry by roofing down at the

MR.. DRAPER FAVORS
CITY Ambulance
Thinks If Should be in Police
Station in Charge Of
Department
MATTER DISCUSSED
AT COUNCIL MEETING

The necessity for a municipal am
bulance and the habit Of fire COM
panies leaving the city without the
knowledge Of the IRE chief, we're two
OF the many important questions
brought before City Council laW
night. Councilman Oscar G. Draper
chairman Of the finance committee
brought the subjects before Council,
and stated that as the time for the re-
newal OF contracts for the ambulance
service was about TO be renewed, II
wight be proper TO say that II haa
been proposed TO place an ambulance
IA charge Of the police department az
the police station. The question, he
said. had been discussed by the
finance committee OF Council for
some time and Il was agreed that the
police department should control the
machine This would have been
done this summer, Mr.. Draper SAID,
but arrangements for housing such
an apparatus could not be made at
this time
Mr.. Draper said that the city con-
tributed $4,000 a year towards the
maintenance
thew had no say In its control. IL
could 20 where It pleases, when II
pleased and much complaint had been
heard of II not being used except IN
the city limits.
Mr.. Draper explained that II was
proposed to have a physician 90 on
the machine at all times, when 1t was
placed in control OF the police de-
partment. The city, he said, has a
CITY physician and a police surgeon
who could attend to the machine day
and night.
Councilman McGoldiick said most Of
the complaints about tNe ambulance ser
vice came from within the city, where
the service is supposed 10 be main
tanned. He did not favor the police de
partment as the place for the ambu-
lance, but thought the hospitals should
maintain them, especially when the city
allows these institutions annual appro-
priations. lie alleged that in putting
the service in the police department and
employing paid drivers aud paid ply
sician, they were only doing 80 to cre-
ate two new positions.
Councilman McDomott favored the
service In charge OF the police depart
ment, saying il should he under some
one who was responsible and who could
control Il.
Mr. Draper denied any political pur-
pose In making the change and said
thcv were after efficiency lie said every
one realized that there should be a
change. and the city Is big enough for
a municipal ambulance service.
He took exception 70 the hre com
panies going outside the city without
notifying the chief or getting his per-
mission. and spoke Of the danger Of
this practice.

pany. where the ambulance Is now

proposition made by Councilman
Draper that the city take charge OF
the ambulance this morning. One
official said "If the city wants to have
