MORGANTOWN, July &C. L. Tit.

Seed corn this year was unusually

your seed corn" was being made and
there is no doubt that a greater re-.
spouse was given to this appeal from
the experiment stations and agricul-
iural workers than to any like appeal
IN our agricultural history.
But there is another side to the sit.
uat.ou. In q great many cases corn
was not tested. circumstances were
perhaps such that scme could not
make the tests. And there were still
others who thought they knew by ap-
peqranCe what an ear OF corn would do
The result is that there are a good

there Is either a poor stand or no stand
at ell Now, if ever, we can not afford
&c the that field be idle.
Food is the thing that we are most
interested in now. We must have food
If we win this war. There are only two
field crops for West Virginia that can
still be sOwn and harvested success
fully this year. These are soup beans
and buckwheat We can't neglect
either.
From now until July 2jth or even
later car interest in this state must
center around buckwheat. Buckwheat
is a great substitute for wheat. 1t
does well in large part Of the state,
does exceptionally well on poor land,
and Is therefore a most profitable crop
