difference in tie season of these two
regions is due to the difference in
climatic conditions.
Seeding to the cultivated forage

turns can be exacted only where soil
and moisture conditions are far
above average. Scattering the seed
on dry side hills is a waste of time
and money. Also It will not pay to
seed areas less than 500 feet below

to permit the native vegetation to

GOVERNORS
ASKED TO
AID u. S.
State Executives To Make
Christmas Gift Savings
Appeal.

Governors OF all the states in the
Twelfth Federal Reserve District
have been asked by the Federal
Government to appeal to the citizens
of their respective states to give
United States securities, such as War
Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings
Certificates as Christmas presents this
year. Governor John U. Calkins OF
the San Francisco Federal Reserve
Bank has also asked the mayors OF
the larger cities OF the Twelfth Fed
eral Reserve District TO issue similar
proclalnations
In its War Savings Christmas cam
paign the Government hopes to kill
three birds with one stone:
First: To start the habit OF saw
ing among as many individuals as
possible.
Second by cutting down the de-
mand for luxuries, under which
Christmas presents may be classed as
a rule, to reduce prices, and,
Third: TO raise the Twelfth Dis
trict's War Savings quota for 1919.
the figure set last January.
Not only has the Government APP
pealed to governors and mayors, but
similar appeals have gone to all
banks IN the district and to clergy
men OF all denominations Owing to
the general unrest. OF which the Gov
eminent feels high prices is one OF the
causes. the appeal Is being made on the
thesis that thrift is n mark OF sound
American citizenship.
Economists are agreed that the
present eyorbitant level OF prices
which constitute not only an eco
nomic but social menace is caused to
a great extent by spending spree
being INDUCED in by the people.
Governor Calkins wrote 'Indul.

Since 1907 the Forest Service has
conducted 500 tests throughout the
west to deteiine what particular cul-
tivated forage plants can be most
successfully seeded ON the range and
what type of range may yield econ
omic returns. The tests have aimed
to cover all important conditions of
soil, climate, exposure and elevation.
More than fifteen of the most i'm
portant grasses and clovers have
been included in the trials.
The results obtaiend show clearly
that Ii does not pay to plow the
gound or to otherwise prepare seed
hed similar tot hat resorted to in the
usual farm practice. The seed, how
ever. must be lightly covered. To
accomplish this a brush harrow. a
spring tooth harrow or. indeed. the
passing of a band OF sheep two OF
three times over the seeded area
serves the purpose.
Timothy, smooth bromegrass, Ken
lucky bluegrass, orchard grass and
redtop. in the order named, have
given the best results. The best
