BIG FIRE PREVENTION
MEETING FOR GLASGOW

tana Towns Here.-State Fire
Marshal in Charge.

AS announced in the last issue of
the Courier, Glasgow has been selected

trum, accompanied by Jay w. Stevens

FARMERS SHOULD
TEST SEED FLAX

The farm bureau office has made
some 2S0 termination tests this spring
on seed grain of different kinds and
about 80 termination tests of seed
flax. The information on the germi-
nation of flax is quite interesting.
The results show that out of 81 sam
pies tested approximately one-fourth
OF these run exceptionally low in GER
mlnatlon. Those who are expecting
to plant flax would do we'll to keep
this in mind and purchase only tested
seed as there is considerable possibil-
lty OF securing seed that might be
low IN termination. Some of the
tests have dropped as low as 7 per
cent running up to 25, 40 and so per
cent in termination. This is due main
!!y to the early winter weather early
IN the fall of 1919, together with the
TACT that flax was late in maturing
last year and considerable of flax has
green kernels in it. A good plan to
follow in purchasing seed flax is to
buy on the basis of termination test
and thus avoid any possibility of get
ting hold of these poor lots. The
farm bureau office will gladly make
termination tests for any one and
no grain should be seeded until germ
ination test is made.
One good thing about flax is that
the wire worm will not work on it,
therefore if field is infested with
wire worms disc and harrow or plow
and harrow this spring and seed to
flax. Other crops not injured by
wire worms are peas and alfalfa. All
other crops are subject to wire worm
damage. The only way to fight the
wire worm is cultivating the land and
seeding to one of the three above men
toned crops.

HOMESTEAD CLAIMS OF
MEN TAKING TRAINING"

according to an act Of congress and
recent publications of the land office
in Washington, disabled soldier who
enters training after having filed a
claim for homestead is entitled to
a leave of absence from his homestead
during the period of his training.
The period of training is credited
him as constructive residence in the
same way that military service was
credited. However, each homesteader
must show at least one years resi-
dence and cultivation of his homestead
irrespective of the total of the COM
bined credit and legal absence to
which he may be entitled.

WOOD LEADER IN
HOOSIER STATE
Has Plurality But Lacks Major
ity Insuring Delegates
Johnson Second.
JOHNSON Wins HOME STATE
California Gives Senator Johnson Big
Vote Over Hoover, Who Is De-
feated in Home COunty-Ken-
tncky Instructs for Cox.

Indianapolis, May 5.-Major Gener-
al Leonard Wood had lead of about
5000 votes in the contest for the In
diana republican presidential prefer
ence vote, when $3.50 out of 1887 pre-
cincts in the statewide primary had
been tabulated tonight. The returns
were gathered from 80 of the Y2 coun-
ties inthe state. Senator Hiram John
son of California was running second
with Governor Lowden of Illinois third
and Senator Warren G. Harding of
Ohio fourth.
The vote for the $500 precincts was:
Wood 64,888; Johnson, 9,456; Low
den, 3O,O14; Harding, 1908.
Unless one of the candidates OBJ
tains majority of the votes cast,
which on the face of early returns,
seems improbable, Indiana's delega-
tion to the republican national corven-
tion will go without instructions, un-
less instructed by the state corven-
tion. The delegates to the national
convention will be chosen at the state
convention, delegates to which were
elected today.
San Francisco, May 5-Senator Hi
ram w. johnson stood today as the
preferred presidential candidate on the
republican ticket of the voters of CAL
ifornia, his native state, on the face
of primary returns from 4,340 of the
states 5,724 precincts. Herbert C.
Hoover, Senator Johnson's only OPP
ponent, also has his home in Cali
fornia.
Senator Johnson's state lead in the
presidential preferential primary bal
lot count continued to grow in returns
received and tabulated at IL o'clock
noon. At that hour the vote stood:
johnson, 322,O46; Hoover, 170,246.
This gave johnson a lead of 151,-
246.
Hoover's presidential primary vote
lead in Los Angeles county which he
had maintained throughout the night
and early morning was overturned by
later returns today, these returns
showing johnson 52,064 and Hoover
47,617 from 805 out of 1875 precincts
in the county.
