SCANDINAVIAN LEADERS MEET
CONFERENCE OF PREMlERS De.
GINS At COPENHAGEN,
Discussion Of Steps Toward Suggest
! Ing Peace Un!ikely-Sweden
E! May Sound Opinion.

Copenhagen, March 8. - The con.
ference Of the premiers and foreign
ministers of the Scandinavian coun-
tries, suggested by the king Of Swed.
en-, has just begun it's sessions at the
royal palace here.
Official Copenhagen does not believe
as has been reported from Stockholm,
that the conference will undertake a
discussion of preliminary sters toward
suggesting peace.
Peace Suggestions Unlikely.
Sweden, it is said, might be pre-
pared to sound opinion i'm that direc.
tiol, but Denmark and Norway seem
to realize that no intimation Of peace
is desired by the Allies at this time
and they are not likely to do anything.
It is argued here that the northern
countries could not approach this sub
ject without joint action on the part
OF the United States and other neutral
countries. The conference here could
only signify the willingness Of Scand-
inavia to act with the others when
the occasion might seem to warrant
steps, but it is considered doubtful il
it will go that far.

RED ROSE BEETLE Is EASILY
KILLED

Did you ever wait patiently in he
spring for your favorite japanese rose
to bloom and find when the buds were
ready to burst that it. was scaly and
spotted around panctures made by the
red rose beetle? Then did you vow
once more to destroy the beetles when
you saw the roses begin to wither
from punctures made by this beetle in
the stem?
The destruction of the rel rose bee
tie is simple, according to a circular
recently issued by the Minnesota state
entomologist, University Farm, St.
Paul. The method is to cultivate the
ground around the rose bush in the
late fall. This will destroy many Of
the beetles, for they live" in the soil in
the winter. Then few "of the pests
can be hand-picked and destroyed.
If they are still too thick, they may
be removed next fall for safety to
next years blooms. The beetle lays
its eggs in the hip of the rose. These
can be seen after the rose is in full
bloom as a black spot, covered over
with no noticeable depression. The
growing pests leave the old blossom
by the middle of september and 90 in
to the soil until next spring.
The bush Should be examined in the
latter part Of August for any flower
hips containing insect larvae and al
found should be plucked and burned
A few hours work will insure beau
tlfully blooming bush next year.

THE SEED PROBLEM

At no time in modern agriculture
has the old expression, GAS ye seed
so shall ye reap,' had more force, in
relation to the staple crop, corn, than
it has today. Our seed corn PROPOSE
ton is serious one and can be help
ed only by a careful selection and
testing out of each ear before any at
tempt is made to use it as seed. It.
costs on the average about $500 to
raise an acre of corn. anything over
that amount in the line Of returns is
profit. Corn averages ia price about
soc per bushel on the local market.
This means that the farmer must raise
at least 80 bushels per acre in order to
pay expenses. All above that is pro-
fit. The prospects are that poor ger
mination of corn for seed this year
will reduce the ylefsi far below this
figure. To help this difficulty all seed
should have an Individual ear test and
the poorest ears discarded. Do it now.
It is likewise folly to seed small grains
without first testing for termination
and removing all poor, shrunken, and
undesirable kernels. No machine on
the farm used For so short time each
year pays more interest on the invest
ment than does a good tanning MILL
The methods for testing the germi-
nation of seed, have been enumerated
in this paper many times and are quite
simple. Among these methods are:
the rag do1l, the inverted plates and
blotters and the large saw dust box.
To this may be added the later plan
of using the egg incubator as a germ
inator. Excellent results have been
obtained with it. Anyone interested
in this latter method should communi-
cate with the agricultural instructor at
the high school for information. The
agricultural department, at the high
school, will do termination testing OF
all seeds, besides purity testinp of all
grain and grass seeds. Seed testing is
one move towards bringing farming
from the chance thing it is today, to
firm business basis such as our fae,
tory systems.
In The agricultural department. there
is also list of pedigreed grain grow:
ers in the state, which is at the dis
|posal 'of those DESTROYS of securing
better seed. All farmers in this vicin
ity, who have good seed Of any kline
to sell are invited to list it for sale
with the agricultural department
which would then act as a seed ex
change gratis. Those wishing to Sc
cure seed are urged to inquire at the
high school. In listing seed it is neces
sary to bring in representative sam
pie, give its true name, give the yielc
Of the last year, and the number Of
bushels for sale as well as the 1owes1
price per bushel.

PEDW EARLY FOR GOOD COIN
CROP

If you did not pillow your corn
ground last fall, the earlier it is done
now the better. Early blowing should
be deep, and the heavier the soil the
the deeper the blowing should be.
When the soil is plowed four or five
inches deep and cultivation of the
crop is two or three inches deep, there
is a loose bed of soil two inches deep
for the roots to grow in. Flowing
six Or eight inches deep doubles this
bed, and generally increases the yield.
IF you plowed the ground in the
spring, it should be d1sked and 11ar-
rowed as early as possible. Disking
and narrowing should be done every
week or ten day period from the time
The ground can be worked until the
crop is planted.
The corn should be planted as early
as the soil is warm, to give a grow
ing season as long as possible. Early
dlsking will make the ground ready
for planting as soon as the season will
permit. Planting should be done in the
southern part Of the state some time
during the first ten days in May. The
second ten days of the month il the
best time for planting in the central
part, and the last ten days the best in
the northern part.
For producing grain, the corn should
be checked feet 6 inches, with three
or four kernels in hill. In ground
free from weeds the corn may well be
drilled, stalks standing about IL to
II inches in row. For silage or bun
die corn 10 be fed without huskinp. it
should be drilled with stalks standing
six to eight inches in row.
There is no advantage in deep plant
ing. From one to two inches is good
depth if the soil is moist. In a wet
season or on wet land it is important
that the seed be not more than one and
half inches in the ground. The plants
will not root deeper on account of
deep planting and the corn planted
shallow will come up earlier and grow
better.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN NOTES
Is the spraying machinery in order?
1t will soon be time to use it.
Sow few nasturtiums, sweet peas
and asters early and transplant to the
open ground when warm enough.
Plant a few aquilegia or columbine
now. They come in a great variety of
color and make fine showing in the
garden. Sown now, some flowers may
be obtained this year.
Do not put flower beds on the lawn.
They should be at the rear in the gar
den, or at the side of the lawn. A
good open lawn is better in every way
than one Uttered with shrubs and
trees.
