SEE THAT THE NEW SEED LAW
IS COMPLIED WITH
An Open Letter to the Farmers aud
Seedsmen of Kentucky

The new Kentucky seed law was
enacted nearly a year ago and has
been in effect since September %,
1916. Everybody concerned has had
ample time to comply with it, yet
it seems there are people who are
not familiar with it and some who
intend TO defy its provisions. Brief
" stated, it requires that all field
seeds. such as those of clover and
oats, must bear a label giving the
percentage of purity and of germi-
nation and that sealed packets OF
vegetable and flower seeds shall
bear the date of filling and the per-
centage of termination. Failure to
label seeds properly render the seller
liable TO a fine of from 25 to 100 dol
lars for each violation. The law was
enacted for the protection of Ken
lucky farmers and seedsmen and
this open letter is an appeal to them
to uphold it by insisting that it be
complied with.
Do not receive seeds that are not
labeled as the law requires.
Buy only of people who comply
with the law.
Insist that field seeds be honestly
labeled with the approximate per-
centage of purity and termination.
Insist that sealed packets of seeds
bear the date Of filling and the per-
cent of termination in large type.
If you find dodder, sour dock, or
wild onion seeds among field seeds,
send us samples for testing. II will
be done free.
Secure a copy of the law in Circu-
lar No. 5 Of the Department of Ento-
mology and Botany, and read it care
fully.

MOUNTAIN AGRICULTURE
Conducted by FERN Demonstration and Special
Investigator

IL partly rotted, IL can be spread
broadcast after the land is plowed
and worked in with a disc harrow
or double shovel. The rotted manure
will be better for the present crop,
but the effect of the coarse manure
will last longer in the land. In any
case, all manure must be complete
ly worked into the soil, as II will
dry out badly il exposed to air.
Manure and leaves or leaf mould
arc more valuable for holding water
than they are for furnishing plant
food and this is very important, for
over 800 tons of water is required
to grow 80 bushels of corn. 10
supply all Of this water there must
be plenty of vegetable matter in the
soil at all times so that it may take
in and hold the rains which fall.
II is easy to see why so much water
is needed when you know that every
bit of food a plant takes from the
soil must be dissolved in water. III
there is no water in the soil, OF
course, the plant starves though
there may be plenty of plant food
present. You can easily see, then.
why fertilizers seem to do no good
in dry weather. II there is plenty OF
absorbent vegetable matter in the
soil. your corn will stand droughts
much better and the fertilizer will
be worth many times as much as
the crop. Even if no fertilizer is
used at all, the result of providing
plenty of "humus' as the rotting OF
vegetable matter is called, will be
to improve the crop yields very
much. Try it.
Plan now to out-do yourself in
growing better crops. l will write
you again before planting time to
make some further suggestions for
the crop.
Yours very truly,

MAKING PROFIT WITH SHEEP
They Are Next to Hogs In Their Fa.
eillties for Making Gains From
Given Quantity Of Feed.

Sheep are generally considered good
feeders, that is to say that they have
adaptations for producing gains eco
nomically. Sheep are next to hogs In
thier facilities for making gains from
given quantity of feed. They have
the advantage Of hogs in that they
can convert coarse folders and hay
into gains. They can excel cattle In
this respect.
It requires 0 to II pounds Of dry
matter to produce a pound Of gain on
steers, according to investigations.
Sheep on the same feed will make a
pound of gain on from to o pounds
Of dry matter.
II was found at the Iowa station
that 1000 pounds of cattle on full feed
ate 1916 pounds Of dry matter a day
and gained 214 pounds; 1000 pounds

Of sheep ate 29.7 pounds Of dry mat
ter a day and gained 3.73 pounds In
weight. The sheep thus ate 4S per
cent more feed per 1000 pounds live
weight and made IS per cent better
gains than cattle. But this was not
all the advantage In feeding sheep;
they will grow a fleece In addition
worth from IS cents to $1.50 a head.
Sheep are close grazers and will
thrive on short grass or destroy weeds
that cattle will not eat. They will
thrive better on short pasture than
either hogs or cattle and when given
richer feed will make better gains
than cattle.
