GREAT IMPORTANCE OF TESTING SEEDS
After o. 8. Dept. of AGri.
slmpI. eermInator for Home Testing.

CBy o. L TILLMAN. Botanist, North
Carolina Department OF Agriculture)
Not less important than avoiding
impure seeds is the avoidance OF
seeds, having low or no vitality, which
fact can be determined only by the
termination test
Two tests were recently made with
cowpeas at the same time and given
sidentically the same conditions; in
fact, the tests were placed side by side
In the terminating chamber. In case OF
one sample there was nc termination,
while the other terminated 100 per
cent Between these two extremes
there ARE all grades Of seeds having
high or low germination, and this 10
true - all the different kinds. As it b
possfDle to obtain good high-grade
seed, no farmer should be willing to
take the risk OF purchasing seed
whose terminating quality he did mot
know nor be satisfied with only a fair
grade seed. Partial or total failure OF
crops is often due to NO other reason
than that the seed planted viii net
grow:
At the laboratory the termination.
tests can be made somewhat more Ac.

,- OVER STARVING WIFE.

In a tumble down hut at Fordham,
in the outskirts of New York City,
Edgar Allan Poe sat by the bed of his
dying wife.
The snow sifted through the poor
patched roof and broken door. and the
midnight winds swept it in drifts
across the floor.
The beautiful young wife was wrap.
ped in Poe's, old army coat, her only
covering. She needed. warmth and
food, but Poe was penniless.
In the night hours he watched his
adored wife, starving. shivering with
cold until death released her.
His sensitive soul was torn with
horror and despair. But his genius
burned clear. Out of blood and an
guish was born what has since been
acknowledged as one of the greatest
masterpieces Of the English language

are allotted it has been the agreement
that the Senators representing this dis
trict shall come from Cleveland and
Polk for one session, and Henderson,
and Rutherford the next succeeding
session, and that the Senators repre-
senting this district shall alternate as
above. This agreement is borne out by
the fact that In the legislature OF 1907
the eve Senators representing this dis
.trict were w. A. Mouney of Cleveland
and TT. Ballenger Of Polk; in 1909
the Senators were Med. Ray Of Hem

tors were o. Max Gardner of Cleve-

the legislature of 1917. the Senators
are to come from the counties of Hem

Trusting that this statement of the
agreement which is fully attested by
the record above given, and further by
the fact that no candidates for the
Senate to represent this 32nd district

Dear Sir:
have your letter Of the End instant
relative to the agreement which las
existed in your District for a number
of years by which III counties of Hen
Iderson and Rutherford are entitled to
name one candidate each for h State
Senate of 1917. That being true, the
notice of entry of the candidates from
this district should be filed with the
County Board of elections instead of
the State Board of Elections,
I am, therefore. returning to Messrs.
Harrill and Justice the fees paid by
them with the request that they file
their notice Of entry with the County
Board OF Elections of their respective
counties.
Under the law, the candidates from
Henderson county will be voted for
only in that county, and the candidates
from Rutherford county will be voted
for in that county only. If there 10
only one candidate from either or
both of the counties, such candidate
will be. declared the nominee of lis
party by the County Board Of Elec-
lions.
Yours very truly,
