EARLY AND LATE
SEED CORN TESTS

Every farmer who plants orn
tests his seed corn. Some farm
ers test theirs before planting
md some test theirs by plant
ing. Those who test their seed
c"ln before planting are able to
plant good seed and get a, large
yield as a result. Those who
test their seed corn by planting
do not know what kind of a
yield they Will get until the
end of the season when it is too
ate to do anything to Improve
the crop. Fortunately, more end
more ccAn aMisers now test
their seed corn before planting
Certain precautions should be
taken, however, in making ones
tests:
The exact number Of kernels
taken from each ear should be
known.
The seed being tested should
be kept moist. but not sNaking
wet and should have air.
The temperature AT which the
corn should be kept should be
about thet to which the corn will
be exposed when planted-from
50 to 70 degrees.
After 10 or Is days kernels
showing a strong growth should
be counted.
Ears showing poor termination
should then be discarded. IF
there is not enough corn for
this then. kernels from such
ears should be planted! more
thickly to provide for full
stand.
The Review has some ra,gdoll
seed Germ testers that may be
had for the asking. Make yours
an early test.

Written by Ada David, in Remem-
hrance of her brother, Roy David.
who died in the hospital at Boise,
July 81. 1917.
Dearest Brother, thou was taken
From thy friends and loved ones,
dear,
And we know your place is vacant.
Yet thy presence seemeth near.
But We know that thou art happy
In that better world beyond,
And thy troubles all are ended. ere
You lay beneath the ground.
But thy soul we know has flown
To a fair and better place,
And we knew that you were happy
BY the picture of your face.
Yet our hearts are sad and lonely
For thy presence here below
Yet your Saviour called you and we
Know you had to go.
But the angels they will hover
Over the little ones you left, And
We hope they will be landed
On bright and higher cleft.
Though we hope some day to meet
you,
Though We know the road is rough,
And our hearts are weak and tender
As we travel DER the bluff.
But our Saviour he will guide us
To that world that's free from sin,
If our hearts We will open. And
Gently bid Him enter in.
