VALUE OF GOOD IMPLEMENTS
Largely Responsible for Size of Crops
and Economy in Production
This Season.

Good implements will be RESPONSE
BILE very largely for the size of the
crops and economy in production this
year. Those who have used dull Ak
in cutting down trees know how much
energy is wasted in using dull i'm
plement and inefficient devices in
work. Why waste time and money in
trying to farm with inadequate nipple
ments? The cost of good imple-
ments is not to be compared with their
value. Save your labor and that of
your teams with efficient implements.

TESTING SEED CORN

Of Greater Importance to Farm
er Than Ever Before.
Department of Agriculture Urges That
Farmers Do Not Feed Corn That
Would Be Valuable II Used
for Seeding.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
The termination test of seed corn is
more important this year than ever be-
fore because good seed corn is scarce,
and because the best seed is needed In
order to produce the large crop which
this nation will need. Even where
seed corn has been carefully gathered
and stored II should be thoroughly
tested in the spring before planting.
The best way to do this is TO make
a seed corn testing box and test one
hundred ears separately.
Each kernel that is tested mnst be
perfect, and not injured at the tip
when ii was removed from the ear.

BUSINESS METHODS IN NEED
Many of Farm Failures Doubtless Due
TO Lack of Science-Farme
Would Produce More.

Much emphasis is being placed upon
science in farming. We are often
told that IL we would use more sci
ence we would produce more. There
is much truth i'm this. Many of our
failures doubtless could be traced TO
lack of science-that is, lack of
classified knowledge.
Business methods are Indispensable
to profitable farming. Without sound
business judgment, correct business
habits and safe business practice, it
will be very difficult matter to use
science for profitable farming.
