Printed Stationery Pays

You are judged by the station
cry you use. Printed stationery
is one of the requisites for a sue
cesSful mail-order business in
livestock, poultry, plants, etc.
Picture to yourself a man who
has answered your advertisement
and your competitors advertise
ment, holding in one hand your
letter written on a sheet from a
tive-cent tablet, and in the other
hand the letter of the other man
written on neatly printed station
ery-Will you or your competitor
have the best chance of getting
his order?
1t pays to name your farm, and
have the name and an illustration
of the kind of cattle and poultry
you specialize in printed on your
stationery. You can buy printed
letterheads and envelopes in
small quantities but it pays to
buy two or three years supply at
once. Your local newspaper also
will supply you very reasonably.

Do Not Burn Vegetable Matter

Everybody agrees that the man
who killed the goose which laid
the golden eggs was foolish. How
about the man who burns the veg
etable matter ON his land when it
needs all the organic matter he
can put into it? 1t is common
practice in some sections to burn
all the weeds, trash and remains
Of former crops when the land is
ready for blowing.
s. S. Walker, associate chemist
to the University of Florida Ex-
pertinent Station, reminds farm
ers that they not only destroy or
ganic matter but they kill many
beneficial bacteria which aid in
making plant food available when
they fire such material. 1t is not
desirable to pillow under large "a
mount of dry matter when one ex-
poets to plant crop Immediately.
But when land is in dire need of
such organic matter, not a. straw
of it should be destroyed. Disc
the field both ways before it is
plOwed and work it well after it
has been plowed. Very little
trouble will be had and the re-
suits will be profitable.

Good Seed Essential to Best Re-
turns

Did you ever reflect that the
best land, thorough preparation
and cultivation will bring small
return if your seed are bad? Bad
seed are expensive. You lose
money if you do not get the high
est possible yield for your invest
ment. A high yield is not apt to
obtain if seed are not clean, pure
and true to name.
DR., w. G. Ethridge, professor
of agronomy in the University of
Florida College of Agriculture,
urges farmers to be careful in Sc
Letting or purchasing seed. OF
the various characteristics on
which the quality of seed de-
ponds, the most important are
genuineness, purity and yiability.
Commences refers to trucness
of seed to name. In many crops
a given variety is often sold un-
der different names, and, on the
other hand, the same variety
name is often applied to different
forms. In such cases, or in most
cases, seed should be bought I'M
der guarantee that they are
genuine, true to name. 1t is SAT
est to obtain a sample and refer it
to the Experiment Station for
Identification.
Purity refers to freedom from
foreign matter such as chaff,
trashy weed seeds or adulterants.
Such impurities are far more COM
mon in forage crop seeds than in
Others. Farmers who intend to
purchase seed should obtain a
sample for minute examination.
II they find impurities, purchase
should be made elsewhere. If the
sample is reasonably free from a.
dulterants they should buy witha
guarantee that the bulk is as

clean as the sample. A large
percentage of impurities in lot
of seed will greatly reduce the
stand and hence will lower the
yield.
The viability or capacity of the
seed to terminate depends on
many factors, among which are
conditions during the season
when the seed was grown, care in
harvesting and curing, the way in
which the seed has been stored,
and the age of the seed. Viability
should be tested before planting.
The real value of seed for sowing
can be determined only when it's
purity and viability are known.

FELDSPAR NOT ADVOCATED

Wide publicity has recently
been given to a statement advo-

as a substitute for potash salts
and referring to Department Bull

proposed practice.
Bulletin No. 104, entitled "The
Use of Feldspathic Rocks as Fer

This bulletin discussed the use of
finely ground feldspar as a pos

fertilizer purposes, and was bas-
ed upon a series of experiments
conducted by the department.
The results reached were incon-
