SEED CORN SITUATION
REGARDED WITH ALARM

The seed corn situation in Ohio
looms up with increasing gravity.
Hundreds of reports reaching the
Agricultural Extension Service at Co.
lumbus from all parts of the state,
show that corn of the 1917 crop is
failing to terminate satisfactorily,
and that old corn is scarce. An aver
age of the 1850 tests conducted by
the pupils and school teachers in all
parts of the state shows that but 81
per cent of the corn will terminate.
Much of this corn even is held to be
better than the average, as most of
the pupils selected the very best
samples obtainable for testing rather
than the average.

The Pneumonia Season

The cold, damp weather Of March
seems to be the most favorable for
the pneumonia germ. Now is the
time to be careful. Pneumonia often
results from a cold. The quicker a
cold is gotten rid of the less the dam
ger. AS soon as the first indication
of a cold appears take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. AS to the value of
this preparation, ask any one who has
used it.

TO THE CORN PRODUCERS
OF THE UNITED STATES

You have shown your patriotism
and ability by producing the Nations
greatest corn crop under rather I'M
favorable conditions. World democ-
racy is depending upon you for an
other bumper crop. You are able and
willing and will win another victory
if you but realize the future diff
culties in time to meet them.
Last year there was a splendid sup
ply of good seed corn. This year
the supply is scarce. In many states
the crop was so injured by cold
weather or drouth that only prompt
sorting and individual ear germina-
ton testing can prevent poor stands,
late paintings and soft corn.
Let us avoid unnecessary risks and
delays by now testing an abundance
Of seed, testing the planter, repair
ing implements and thus be ready
to start the field work early. Being
ahead with the work gives great adj
vantage over the many difficulties
to be overcome this year. In the
Northern states farmers with silos
should now import strong germinat-
ing seed from farther south. With
unusually early planting and early
cultivation to dry and warm the soil
surface such seed is likely to give
a better ensilage crop than home
grown seed. A good corr crop is toe
much needed this year to permit ever
the most reckless to plant INFESTED
seed.
Talk this over with your neighbors
and if you wish county agents, state
experiment stations, or members of
this Department to assist in testing
seed corn, getting ensilage seed, OF
to make suggestions about planting
c%ultivating, ETC., please explain youl
difficulties, conditions and desires
early.
Very truly yours,

Knittersi Attentioni


There is a big demand for socks.
The quota of wristlets is filled; but
do not forget that we shall have to
be getting ready for next winter, so
sweater yarn can be used up in spare
moments.
Special mention should be made Of
the splendid boxes sent in this past
week by Delta and Archbold. Among
the things sent in. by Archbold were
16 complete baby layettes, beautifully
made. These represent a great deal
of work and money. The plan used
in making these layettes might be
employed in Wauseon. One organi-
cation took care of one complete lay
ette-for instance, the High School
girls made one, the Methodist ladies
another, etc. Directions for making
the layettes will gladly be furnished
at the work. rooms.

BEES WORTHY OF MUCH CARE

Every colony of bees that survives
the winter should be managed so that
it will produce as much honey as
possible during the cominr summa~
Since the sugar supply is limited on
account of the demand abroad, Lne, =
is no danger of over-production of
honey for some time to come. Prices
offered for extracted honey today are
three times what they were a little
more than a year ago. Bees are worth
giving the best of care, and colonies
now in inadequate hives should be
transferred to modern me at fruit
poisoning time, be given plenty of
room for brood rearing, and be pro-
vided with a storage of honey. Bees
are the only agents capable of re-
covering the tons and tons of nectar
that will be available from all sorts
Of flowers during the growing season.
Without bees all this is wasted.-J,

That this can be done is
proven every day by the great

little advertising. occasional
statements and cards in the
newspapers, supplemented with
booklets and letters.
They were not satisfied with
results. and finally engaged the
services of an experienced man
to run an advertising cam

months of the right sort of
work they gained the second
three million dollars of Savings
Deposits.
There were twenty-four banks
in Seattle at the time, only one
of which was a Savings Bank

twenty-four had Savings De-

There were less than $4,000
