If the snakes, owls and hawks were
able to write and vote, they would
probably undertake a campaign Of
education" On their own behalf, fog
better public understanding, or seek
protective laws in Congress. AS man
is the only writing and voting animal,
it is clearly his duty to understand
the snakes. owls and hawks. With
understanding will come intelligent
protection.

and others who are interested in COM
munity seed corn testing may obtain
suggestions on organizing a commun-
ity testing center" by application to
the college.
"The returns that may be expected
from testing seed corn, even when
the quality is normal is illustrated by
contests conducted by the Missouri
State Corn Growers Association last
year." said Mr.. Hackleman. Careful
field notes were taken on the five
acre plot of each contestant. The av-
erage stand of corn on the plots where
the seed had been tested was 92.9 per
cent and the average yield was 71.33
bushels. Fields planted to INFESTED
seed gave an average stand of 72.1
per cent and an average yield Of ST.
"a bushels per acre. In other words,
those men who tested their seed made
gain of 10 bushels per acre over
those who trusted their own judgment
and did not test. If such results are
possible when seed corn is normal,
then even greater relative results will
be possible this year when seed corn
quality is far below normal"

START VEGETABLE
PLANTS EARLY

|
Seed for early crops of cabbage,
caulif1ower, and celery should be
sown in February. Ten days or two
weeks later seed of tomato, pepper,
eggplant, head lettuce and similar
crops should be planted in the hot
bed also, 1t is advisable to divide the
bed with partition, keeping one sec
ton cool to suit the first group of
vegetables which grow best at a
temperature of so to so degrees F.,
while the other section can be used for
the second group, which grow best
at rs to 80 degrees. The simple ma
nure-heated hotbed with fifteen inch
es of fresh fermenting horse manure
under four inches of medium rich
soil and covered with standard glass
sash, is quite satisfactory for grow
ing early vegetable plants. The seed
may be sown in few rows at one
side of the bed, or perhaps a few
shallow boxes in the windows of a
fairly warm room indoors may serve.
AS soon as the seedlings from a Sec
ond pair of leaves, which will be from
two to three weeks after the seed are
sown, they will be ready to trans
plant to the hotbed. They should be
set two by three inches apart. This
transplanting should not injure the
roots severely. 1t gives the individ-
ual plant room in which to develop
short, stocky, leafy stems with large
root systems, instead of the tall
spindling plants with few roots which
are produced when the plants are
crowded. Usually it is best to set
the plants directly in the soil of the
hotbed, but it is also convenient to
set them in flats or shallow boxes
which can be placed in the hotbed
and later shifted to a cold frame
without disturbing the plants.
Large plants, says j. T. Rosa, Jr.,
of the University Of Missouri College
of Agriculture, as tomato and egg
plant, ought to be transplanted twice
for best results. The seedlings are
set in the hotbed two by three inches
apart or transplanted to flats in the
same manner as other plants. AS
they become crowded or root-bound
in this position, four or five weeks lat
er, they should be removed to a cold
frame, where they may be set four
by four inches apart or better still,
ported in four-inch clay pots, which
are staged side by side in the cold
frame. Here the plants are gradually
exposed to outdoor conditions and
hardened off by Withholding part of
the water supply, so that they be-
come tough and stocky before being
transplanted to the garden. 1t is well
worth while to take some trouble
grow good vegetable plants. The ear
illness and yield of the crop will repay
this. 1t should be remembered that
the big succulent plants are not as
good as the medium sized, stocky,
toughened plants, which grow fast
after transplanting. Plant seed now,
so that there will be ample time to
grow good plants without forcing
them too fast.

EARLY SEEDING OF
SWEET CLOVER

The common clovers are usually
seeded on the last snow, or on the
frozen ground in early spring. Sweet
clover may also be seeded in this
manner. Such practice allows the
seed to be covered by falling into the
soil cracks and early seeding also
aids in softening the hard hull to i'm
prove the low termination which is
characteristic of sweet clover.
In Missouri sweet clover usually
needs incubation. This treatment
supplies the bacteria which form the
root nodules and make the plants
robbers" In most parts Of this State
where red clover has been generally
grown, this crop does not need special
treatment, since the bacteria are US
ually already present in the soil. For
sweet clover. however, incubation is
a wise practice.
The best way to inoculate for seed
ing early in the season is to use the
soil method. Artificial cultures are
not so safe for use in cold weather as
a we'll infected soil, says w. A. AL
brecht of the University of Missouri
College of Agriculture. For sweet
clover incubation one may use a soil
that recently grew either sweet Glow
err or alfalfa, provided the crop had
plenty of nodules on the roots. Soil
from red, mammoth or alsike clovers
will not serve. All true clovers will
inoculate each other, but these can
not be used for Japan clover or
sweet clover. Alfalfa and sweet
clover have the same bacteria and
will inoculate each other, so that the
soil from one can be used when the
soil from the other cannot be had.
To use the soil method for inocu-
lation, collect surface soil to a depth
of four inches from a field where the
legume, with nodules on the roots,
grew recently. Let this soil dry
slowly until it can be powdered
through fine screen. Use this fine
soil to inoculate by sitting it on the
seed which has been moistened with
a glue solution, made of mixing one
pound of liquid furniture glue in a
gallon of water. Mix the moist dirty
seed thoroughly, dry it slowly and
then sift it to break up the clumps of
seed, which would give trouble in
seeding. This method of inoculating
is the most satisfactory for legumes
to be seeded in the late winter and
early spring.

YOU CAN'T EAT YOUR CAKE
AND HAVE 1T, BUT YOU CAN
POACH YOUR EGG AND
EAT THE HEN LATER

Washington, D. c., Feb. 25.-Ap-
probation of this fact, the poultry
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture say, will
add 15O,O0O,000 eggs to our food sup
ply this year without reducing our
supply of chicken meat. Investigate
ors have found that because poultry
brings cents a pound more in win
ter than in late spring, many farmers
in the south have been throwing away
valuable egg profits just to get 8
cents more per hen. They believe that
if farmers will keep their laying hens
and sell their eggs and then market
the birds in the late spring, they will
not only add to the food supply but ac-
tually increase their profits so cents
per hen.

SEED CORN SHORTAGE
THREATENS NEXT CROP

Columbia, Mo-, Feb. 25.-That the
seed corn shortage in Missouri is the
greatest in recent years is shown by
surveys made by the University of
Missouri College of Agriculture. The
seriousness of the shortage, according
to Investigators, becomes more ap-
parent daily as reports of germina-
ton tests are received According to
present indications, at least half of the
seed corn will not test above so per
cent. The greatest danger to the
coming crop is the fact that most of
the corn looks good, which has led
many farmers to believe that it is
normal. However, when the real
test Of quality is applied, surpris-
ingly large percentage of this corn
has failed to terminate. Farmers
who depend on the outward appear
ance Of the seed as test of quality
this year will be deceived, say the
specialists here.
A report of testing done in Marion
county under the direction of the
County Agent, H. T. Nelson, shows
the seriousness of the situation and
also indicates how misleading the
outward appearance of the corn can
be. Of 2939 ears, which were appar-
emily of good quality, only 1927 gave
strong termination. If these 2939
ears of corn had been planted, with
out testing, the stand would have been
less than 35 per cent or only little
more than third.
Figures from the Government Seed
Testing Laboratory show that only
per cent of the samples of seed corn
tested have terminated Sc or over; IL
per cent have tested 80 to 95; 20.5 per
cent, 80 to 80; 1872 per cent, 70 to 70.
Almost one third or 1928 per cent,
tested so to So per cent, and per cent
was below so per cent. From these
and other tests reported, J. c. Hackle-
man of the Agricultural Extension
Service, estimates that half the seed
corn in Missouri will terminate not
more than so per cent.
The College of Agriculture has re-
Gently issued Extension Circular As,
How to Test Seed Corn, which gives
full directions for testing, together
with illustrations of simple testers
that may be made at home. This pub
LEGATION was prepared few days ago
especially to meet the present stu
alton. Copies will be mailed free of
charge, by writing to the College at

STATE LABOR COMMITS
SIONER LEWIS WILL TRY
TO SUPPLY FARM LABOR

jefferson City, Mo-, Feb. 22.-Mis.
souri, farmers who are in need of helT
for the coming spring planting are
urged by Commissioner VIM. H. Lew
is of the Missouri Bureau Statistics
to at once notify him, through mai
or otherwise, at his headquarters in
the State Capitol, how many men and
women are needed. The more quickly
this information is impaired the soon
err can the needed help be supplied
Never in the history of the State, and
the same conditions prevail all over
the country, has there existed such a
shortage of farm help, the present
scarcity chiefly being due to the heavy
demands in 1917 of the country for
able-bodied men between Fl and 81
for war purposes.
1t is now no longer a question of
supplying skilled farm hands to farm
ers needing help, as men of that cali
Der are very scarce, but the aim is to
supply sufficient strong, healthy and
untiring men and youths who will
prove useful in expediting the spring
planting and finally, in garnering the
crops of 1918. Many farmers have
already decided that almost any kind
of willing farm hand who can put in
at least 10 hours a day on the job
will be appreciated and prove ac-
ceptable.
Commissioner Lewis urges farmers,
when they send in their respective re-
quests for farm hands, to give de-
tanned information as to the mount
of weekly or monthly pay and, wheth-
err or not, board, room and washing
are included, and if transportation
costs will be advanced the same to be
deducted later on in installments from
the wages.
County farm advisers and CONNER
cial Clubs are also appealed to by
Commissioner Lewis to at once as
sist in enlightening the Bureau of
Labor Statistics as to the number of
farm hands needed in their commune
ties. At the present moment several
hundred men, some with more or less
experience at farm work, are regis
tered with the State Free Employ
ment Division of the Bureau of La
Dor Statistics as being open for farm
work. Unless farmers grab up these
workers Immediately they will find
employment at other pursuits. 1t is
already certain that there will be a
large demand at good wages in st.
Louis, Kansas City and st. Joseph
this spring for laborers of all classes,
and men now willing to work on farms
will respond to this call for toilers I'M
less farm positions are given them
Immediately.
1t is necessary for Missouri farm
ers of the State to realize immediate
ly and fully appreciate the tightness
of the labor market, announces Com
missioner Lewis. If they wait until
after March 1st, before registering
their needs for farm hands with the
State Free Employment Bureau,
either at Jefferson City, or 804 Grand
Avenue, Kansas City; or II North
Eighth St., st. Louis, or 10 North
Seventh St., st. Joseph, the last ap-
plicants for help will experience
hard time in securing men, and will
then only be able to fill their wants
by offering and paying higher wages
than laborers will be paid by employ
ers from the larger cities.
