PURE SEED is
VERY IMPORTANT


One Of the important items that will
aid In securing higher returns and over
winch the farmer has complete control
Is the matter Of seed grain. If farm
or mas not a gOOdly supply of pure,
clean seed Of high yielding variety
which is suitable for this climate now
IS the time to secure it. If supply
OF pure grain is on hand it cannot be
cleaned and graded too thoroughly.
Even It some of the smaller and shriv-
elled up grain must be fed to the stock
1t will pay to clean the grain and grade
out the small kernels. Nothing but
plump, bright seed should 20 into the
ground. When shriveled, shrunken or
immature seed is sown it will not give
the yield that plump bright berry
Will. When weed seeds are placed in
the ground they are using the plant
food that should 60 to the raising of
the pure grain on that field, and they
also shade and reduce the yield on the
surrounding plants. With reduced
yields the farmer has less bushels to
market and If weedy and poor in grade
ne gets lower price per bushel Either
way results in<a loss of many dollars
to the grower. The farmer can have
this extra money by a little planning
and forethought now.
To aid the Red River Valley farmer
In getting better returns for their la
Dor, the Northwest Experiment Station
will furnish farmers with a small sup
ply of clean pure seed which has been
tried out for years on the station and
found suitable for the Red River Val
ley. To get this grain widely and even
" distributed, only enough can be given
out to seed one or two acres The crop
from this plot should yield enough to
sow fair sized field next year. BY
Keeping this grain free from weeds and
sowing it on clean land it is only a
matter. of year or two before he can
distribute clean seed to his neighbOrs
at price enough above the market
value to pay him for his extra effort.
What goes to the elevator will bring
him premium above light weight and
weedy grain. In this way he is getting
the profit that is his and which he has
been throwing away annually by not
giving enough thought in the spring to
the seed grain that goes into his ground.
The seed grain distributed from the
Northwest Station will be sold at a
small margin above market price. It
has been cleaned and graded as thor
Oughly as can be done by modern ma
chinery. No noxious weed seeds are
to be found in the grain. Official pur-
[ity on all of the seed. All those de-
string enough wheat, oats or barley to
start pure seed plot this year should
get in touch with their. county agricul-
tural agents Immediately. If you are
unable to do this, write the Station.
The seed will be furnished as long as
the limited supply lasts.

A FINANCIAL PROPOSITION

At the meeting of the Nogales City
Council Monday evening there wa:
presented a communication from Mr.
w. F. Overton, president of the No
gales Building and Loan Association
making proposition that the City OF
Nogales invest the sinking fund that
will be provided in the proposed bono
issue in shares in the Association
where there is guaranty of 10 per
cent interest, compounded semf-an-
nually, where under present condi.
tions, with funds deposited in bank
the city gets but per cent simple in
terest.
The proposition aroused consider
able discussion. Alderman Writ G.
Bowman expressed doubt whether
the city had a right, under the law
as framed now, to make such an in
vestment.
City Clerk Frank Cole suggested
that the city might fare better by
asking bids for the deposits-instead
of depositing the funds and accept
ing the usual bank rate of interest for
time deposits, he thought that the
plan of calling for bids might bring
five or five and one-half per. cent.
Some of the Aldermen thought in
vestment of the funds in the Building
and Loan Association might tie up
the money so the city could not real
ize it when needed. But beyond dis
cussing the proposition nothing was
done in the matter.

Advices received here declared that
the shooting of Lack was unwarranted
and unjustifiable. Lack had crossed
over the line in the ordinary course
OF business, and while in Mexico was
shot by an officer of the Mexicali
police force, as given in the detailed
report sent the State Department
from Calexico.
1t is reported that considerable ex.
citement prevails at Calexico, and it
was feared for while that irate citi-
zens might precipitate serious trouble
by crossing over to the Mexican town
en- masse, seize the alleged murderer
and return to the American side with
him, for such punishment as a mob
might see fit to inflict. But all danger
OF such an occurrence has passed.
American troops are patrolling the
line at CaleXico, with two troops of
cavalry under arms and ready to act
at a moments notice. Latest reports
are to the effect that the civil and
