Better Seed Resolution Adopted by

The following resolution has beer
adopted by the State Council of De.
fense:
Whereas, the total reduction in
yield of cereals in Colorado in 1917
due to preventable diseases, and tc
the use of unclean and non tested seed
amounted to approximately 1,16O,O ,OO(
bushels; and
Whereas. the cereal smuts are large.
ly cOntrollable by seed treatment, and
we have in the Colorado Seed Labor
atory a place where seed may be test
ed free of charge previous to plant
ing. and realizing the immediate re-
turns which will result from seed
testing, seed cleaning and seed treat
ment:
And. whereas. without an increase
in our acreage this coming year and
without any greater care in cultural
methods or in harvesting, the yield
of the crops in Colorado can be in
creased ten per cent or more, simply
by givin unusual attention to the use
of pure, cleaned, sound and vigorous
seed
NOW, THEREFORE,, BE 1T RE-
SOLVED, That we, the Colorado State
Council of Defense. endorse the Bet
ter Seed for Colorado project conduct
ed by the United States Department
of Agriculture and the Colorado Agri
cultural College cooperating through
the Extension Service in Colorado and
appeal to the farmers of the state to
test clean and treat their seed; to the
seed men to supply the farmers with
only the best of seed and to adhere
strictly with the provision of the Colo
rado Seed Law and we call upon the
Councils of Defense in the counties
to encourage this movement in their
respective communities in every way
possible. All the Colorado may in
crease her food output and be more
active in helping the Cause in which
our Country is fighting.

Extract from Experiment Station
Bulletin No. 2l9, Growing Wheat in
Kansas"
Summer FslIsw in Rstatisa
Successful farming in Western
Kansas depends in large measure on
raising live stock, and the most profi-
table farms are those which combine
system of growing wheat and feed
for stock.
The best feed crops for western
Kansas are the sweet sorghums. The
best results are secured when these
crops are growing in rotation with
wheat. But kaffir, and most other
sorghums grow rather late in the fall
and come off so lat that wheat can
i not be sown, or, trey leave the ground
in such conditions that wheat cannot
be grown successfully the following
season. The difficulty may be over
come by using summer fallow. A good
rotation is wheat for two years, kaf-
fir or other sorghum one year and
summer fallow one year By this sys-
TEN, one-half of the farm is in wheat
each year one-fourth in sorghum crop
for feed. and one-fourth fallow for the
coming wheat crop. If this system
does not supply sufficient feed, and ad-
ditlonal crop of sorghum can be added
to the rotation, making it first year
wheat, second year wheat; third year
sorghum, fourth year sorghum, and
fifth year fallow.
County Avont'c Cn,,n,o,t r..l:
tions in western Kansas are very simi-
lar to Sedgwick County. This season
has proven to US conclusively that we
should practice diversified farming.
While wheat, our principal crop was
cut short by hot summer, corn and
sorghums will make an excellent yield.
fhls feed, properly conserved, will
carry our stock over the winter in
good condition. The following table
gives results Of methods of preparin
the ground for winter wheat. Colby,
Kansas Experiment Station, 1915
1917:
Preparation by late fall plowing,
shallow in 1915 yielded 80 bushels per
acre. 1916 80 bu.. 1917 90. average
81 bushels.
Early fall plowing( in deep 1915
1877 bu., 1916 1875. 1917 90, average
12.4 bushels.
Summer fallow, 1915 1875. 1916 26.5,
1917 90, average 1873 bushels.
Treating Fall Wheat for Smut
Most of the farmers in the County
are treating their wheat for smut this
fall before sowing. This shows a de-
termination on the part of the farmers
to take every precaution against a
possible failure due to smut. 1t is
estimated that if we had completely
controlled smut in wheat in 1917 in
the United States. We could have fur
nished the allies an additional 33 mil
lion bushels.
