When an improved variety of seed
is very badly needed to make up a
national shortage of a commodity, the
natural increase is not always rapid
enough. One way in which an I'M
natural speeding up may be secured
is shown by the work Of the United
States department of agriculture with
f1axseed. Foreign supplies of fax
coming into the United States were
severely reduced during the war and
an increase of fax acreage became
imperative. large number of pedi-
gree selections and increase piats of
the best varieties were grown during
the summer of 1918 at the experiment
station at East Lansing, Mich. In the
fall of that year selections Of seed Of
various strains were taken to Porto
Rico, and an increase crop was grown
during the winter. The increased
supply of seed thus produced was

Part Of the Ritual of Publication That

In folk custom, needfire is fire kim

many customs and beliefs connected
with fire one of the most important is
that of Mutual publication. The new
fire is Supposed to regenerate, as fire
sacrifice is designed to sustain, the
invisible beings. Needfire is a prac-
tice, usually, of shepherd peoples to
ward off disease from the fiocks. In
historic times the sparks for kindiing
the needfire were obtained by twirling
wooden peg around a wooden post
AS in the case of new fire, the need
fire was almost always accompanied
with the eNtinguishing of the fires Of
the locality. and the neighbors also
rekindled their fires from it as in the
new fire ceremony. In practice, the
people passed, or the herds were driv-

fire custom survived in the highlands
of Scotland until recent date, and
probably traces of this superstition
still exist Ina parts of Europe.
