Itis therefore imperative that the

The weight sheet, the record of
the pounds Of milk given daily By
each COW, should be kept, according
10 Prof. {. G.. Seymore Of the Colo
RADIO Agricultural College. The Bab-
cock test for butter fat should be run
for two days each month. The fat
test for that length Of time, together
with the daily weight Of milk given
will determine the yearly fat produc-
tion.
Breeders of pure bred dairy stock
have long recognized the importance
OF the milk test. Advanced registry
records for the various breeds set
standards OF production and the COWS
that can reach such standards more
and offspring as well.
The weighing and testing of milk
is not yet practiced by the general
farmer. II will be, however, as soon
as the farmer realizes that only in
this way can he know the profitable
cows to keep and whether his herd
is improving or deteriorating.
a farmer milking ten COWS OF
which only one was a high producer
would double or even treble his net
profits in year by selling the nine
and milking just the one high pro
ducer.
One case is on record of a COW
that sold for $50. The purchase
tested her and her butter fat record
made her worth $500 at her next
sale.
Test your cows and know whether
they are eating up your profits as
well as your feed.

MOTOR INDUSTRY WILL KEEP
GROWING STATISTICS SHOW

Second in size only TO the iron and
steel industry, the American automo-
bile industry is today the worlds
largest manufacturing business Of
finished products. At the end of this
year the total annual volume of this
country's combined motor vehicle &C.
cessory and supply business will have
reached S4,40O,000, 900, of which 49,
COO 900 900 will represent motor cars,
trucks and tractors.
In view of these staggering figures,
J. George Frederick, writing in the
American Review of Reviews, asks:
Can the automobile industry keep
on growing? Is the ghost of satura-
ton to begin his disquieting vigil
Is not the point being reached where
income limitations will prevent the
future absorption of motor vehicles ?"
Some companies and CLOSE up"
inspection of facts underlying this
country's automobile industry-admit-
tedly the most amazing young giant
in our industrial arena-are necessary
TO reach sound conclusions.
First, then. there are now roundly
1850, 900 motor vehicles in use in this
country, about 100000 being motor
trucks. There is one vehicle TO each
thirteen persons in the United
States as against one to every 2,162
persons in the rest Of the world.
Certain sections show . much higher
percentage than this country rs q
whole. Iowa is first, with an auto
to every five or six persons-one to
every family. Were the same con-
ditions maintained throughout the
nation, there would be 40,S00. 900
more cars in operation in the United
States alone.
This year will see about 2,000, 900
passenger cars and l25.0OO motor
trucks built in this country-and this
huge output, according to one author
ity, could be disposed Of in ten days
il Il were now available. And still
the domestic demand would not be
saturated"
Export demand is even greater and
more insistent than that Of the Amer
ican market. European people have
seen for themselves what the Ameri-
can-made car can do. Europe has
449, 900 900 people and but 437, 900
aut0mobiles. We're Europe to have
one car to every fifty people, it would
require 1850, 600.

HAVE YOUR SEEDS TESTED
BEFORE YOU PLANT THEM

Agricultural College News Notes.
1t is the dealers business to label
all seeds as to purity termination and
presence of noSious weeds. A very
general statement as to the seed
quality.
1t is the farmers business before
he buys seeds to check that label to
find out definitely just how much
pure sed and how much inert material
consisting Of dead seed, broken seed,
dirt, sticks, stones, and similar mat
ter, and how much and what weed
seeds he is buying contains.
The Seed Laboratory is equipped
and ready to report on seeds submit
ted, and in q very short time. Such
a test win not only enable the farmer
to be sure that he is not paving for
weed seed, planting it, cultivating it
and harvesting it, but will also enable
him to decide how much seed he shall
plant per acre. For example, if his
seed alfalfa is SO per cent pure, germ
inaticn 75 per cent, he has 1875 per
cent Of live seed alfalfa and would
need to sow 176 per cent more than
if he had 9S per cent pure and 95
per cent termination (931 per cent
live seed.)
Not all weed seeds are equally un-
desirable in fields, hence detailed
purity test, showing the various weeds
in a sample will enable the farmer to
decide whether he is willing to plant
the weed seeds or whether he will look
farther for clover seed. Clean seed
is always obtainable, usually at a
somewhat higher price. The decision
must be made on an accurate and de-
tailed test of the seed under con-
sideration.
Clean seed will not always grow,
hence it is necessary to have seed
tested for termination also. The
Seed Laboratory is equipped to give
each kind of seed its optimum germin-
ating condition and therefore to get
the highest termination percent. 1t
is not likely that under field condi-
tons as large percentage of seeds
will germinate as the laboratory re-
ports. The nearly ideal conditions
Of temperature, moisture and soil
during the first few days after the
! planting, the more nearly the Labora-
tory results will be approximate.
