The Field is a Costly Seed Corn Tester.

Results of the seed testing work car
red on in the schools Is being reported
TO the extension service, University Of
Vermont and state agricultural college.
The county agents and district school
superintendent have practically com
pleted their work OF demonstrating TO
the teachers and schools the rag doll
method of seed testing and the children
are now at work testing the seeds of the
farmers in an endeavor to determine
whether the seed win or will not grow
While it Is very early TO draw conclu.
sions from the results of this work
brief statement of results thus far re-
ported may induce many farmers to have
their seeds tested before planting Great.
est emphasis has been placed on corn
since the seed corn seemed TO be of much
lower terminating quality this year than
in the average year To date so per cent
of the schools reporting have taken up
the testing of seed corn, the average
termination being GO per cent. This
means that two kernels of corn in three
will grow. Here is an alarming condi-
ton for if the farmers of Vermont plant
their corn expecting it all to grow they
have made it absolutely impossible Tor
Vermont to raise more than two.thirds
of crop of corn. This would be almost
a calamity this year when every ounce of
food is necessary. The range of germi-
nation was from 0 per cent TO 100 per
cent. No farmer knows whether his
corn will or will not grow unless he has
tested it, 1t is duty and a sound mon
ey practice. Lack of food will lose the
war"
Farmers wishing to test their own
seed should send to the extension serv-
ce, University of Vermont and state
agricultural college, Burlington, Vt, for
farmers bulletin, o4S, or circular No. 10. |
