Good Seed of First importance.

1t is decidedly preferable to buy ne%

prove poorly adapted to local condi'

oats one-third to one-half of the total
bulk should be removed, leaving on.S

to treat the seed for smut. This may
be omitted, however, if last years crop

the cost of the formaldehyde treatment
is so small. many prefer to take no
chances and so treat the seed every
year. If 1t Is sown before 1t Is dry,
one must make allowance for Its swell

stand will not be sufficiently dense.

"The enormous increase In the mum
Der Of automobiles and trucks in the

"Therefore, with fewer horses there

The failacy is twofold. The number
of horses and mules on farms, If de-

Furthermore, statistics show that
American farmers are not cutting

Oats Proportion Grows.
This is not all. The proportion of
oats to corn and wheat has increased

Since the war has robbed so many
women Of the husbands, fathers or

were dependent, many city women have
