Northern Counties ImproUe Crops

Northern Counties ImproUe Crops
 In the case of beans and corr excellent work has been done. Beans grown from hand selected seed yielded 100 pounds more per acre than from seed not SC selected. This season a double selection is being made. Pods from the best vines are first hand selected before harvest and after wards the beans from these are carefully hand picked. This care fully selected seed will be se- cured for the field crop the fol- lowing season. Seed for the seed plot will again be carefully hand selected.
 Fields of corn grown from fall selected seed yield 2 bushels per acre more than fields grown with out such selection.
 Some farmers used the lear to-row" method for determining high yielding strains.
 Three varieties of corn for si- lage purposes were tested for yield but results are not sufficl- entIy evident to determine which to adopt as a standard silage corn.
 Several varieties of potatoes are under test to determine the best variety for this section. MT. Peter Rencher of Eager. Arizona, has done praiseworthy work in the improvement of potatoes having developed first-class white potatoes of excellent flavor and good keeping quality from the Blue Victor.
 Oats have been grown for years from untreated seed without any appreciable amount of smut, hence the farmers did not care to treat seed this year. AS a result nearly every field in the county was very smutty. The estimated loss per acre is Is bushels. In many fields third to one half of the heads were smutty. All of the farmers express a readi- ness now to treat their seed oats to prevent smut.

Congress Figuring on ReUenue

Congress Figuring on ReUenue
 Many senators and members of the house declare that the ad- ministration will have to resort to a bond issue to meet the de- felt of $500. .OOO, ,0O0. which has been predicted next year by Rep resentative John J. Fritzgerald, chairman on appropriations.
 President Wilson said at the conference with newspaper men that he would not favor an issue of bonds, but that other means of raising revenue had been dis cussed at a recent cabinet meet ing.
 This has brought a suggestion that the democrats will have to abandon their tariff views and possibly violate the pledge of the 1912 platform to reduce the high cost of living by resorting to ad- ditional customs duties, tea and coffee being named as commodi- ties on which a tariff might be placed.
