that he had lost the previous fall. The
moral is "Patronize home industry"
The following is received from the
state department. | believe it is well
worth considering.
"Red clover seed with 5,006 noXious,
and 1880 other weed seeds to the
pound was offered and sold to Wiscon-
sin farmers according to the Seed In
spection Division of the State Depart
ment of Agriculture. The seed in
spector has collected and analysed
several samples taken from lots of
seed shipped to Wisconsin by the A
merican Mutual Seed Company of
Chicago. In addition to the weed seeds
above mentioned which constitutes
8.8 per cent by weight of the total
bulk of seed there were 80 per cent
of poor grade clover screenings, 3.o
per cent of inert matter and 5.5. per
cent of other crop seeds. In other
words only 1872 per cent or "A pounds
of each bushel was the red clover seed
for which the farmer paid.
Similar lots are being shipped to
Wisconsin farmers by the A. A. Berry
Seed Co., Clarinda, Iowa. One SAM
pie of red clover seed contained 600
wild mustard, 600 Canada thistle, 900
field dodder and 5000 buckhorn or to-
tai of 500 noXious weed seeds to each
pound of clover seed. A sample of
mixed alsyke and timothy contained
9O7 mustard, 500 buckhorn and $50
Canada thistle seeds to each pound of
the mixture.
''The red clover seed sold by the A
merican Mutual under the name "E-
economy" brand has been offered at
5000 a bushel when their high grade
or "Pinnacle" brand was offered at
S26.8O. The pinnacle" seed is good
seed, but is fully as high priced as
that being sold by other dealers.
Hence, if good seed is desired it will
cost just as much coming from the A
merican Mutual as from any other
scotsman or seed concern.
"The analysis of Economy brand
seed showed it to be only 1872 per cent

PATROLMEN REQUIRED

To do the maintenance work alone,
and without reference to road con-
struction, sixteen hundred men will
be required to patrol the highways in
Wisconsin during 1920. Of this num-
Der 900 are needed for the State Trunk
System and 700 for the county or Sc
condary trunk system. For the main
tenance of the 1880 miles of State
Trunk and County Trunk System
Highways in Wisconsin there will be
expended during 1920, S3,550.00O. This

BE TOLERANT

One of the greatest virtues in this
world and one of which we seldom
hear is the virtue of tolerance. It is
some thing which is needed in Ameri-
can life today, both public and private.
Quickness is an American Characters
tic and we are sometimes too quick
in our judgments of other people. A
quick Judgment is seldom a sane judg-
ment. We are too prone to down the
"other fellow" when he commits some
act or word which does not agree with
our idea of what he should have done
or said under the circumstances.
This does not mean that we are
narrow minded where politics or re-
ligion are concerned. Our education
and our national ''opengate" policy
has overcome this. But we are too
quick to judge our fellow beings when
their personal life and habits are
concerned Frequently we know very
few of the circumstances, but we jump
to conclusion, base our judgment
largely on hearsay and denounce
someone as hard-hearted or a coward
when. if the truth were known, he is
probably a better man than We.
Many times people display lack of
nerve at crisis thru no fault of their
own. 1t may be that they have been
oyerworked and their nervous system
will not stand the added strain, or it
NAV be the out-cropping of some in
herited tendency which needs only a
nervous crisis to show it up. Conse-
ouently, we should be tolerant in our
Judgment. Someday we may be in
need of tolerance ourselves.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1920-02-05

per cent of a stand of clover. Using
10 pounds of the seed to an acre it
would deposit $1,000 noxious weed
seeds on an acre, the plants resulting
from which it would take years of la
Dor to eradicate.
''The "Pinnacle" brand at S26.SO
would cost At cents pound. Which
is the cheaper in the end? Using the
Economy brand we get "A pounds
of red clover seed at AZ cents a bush
ell with 3.3 pounds of other crop seeds,
5.28 per cent of weed seeds, 492 lbs.
of light clover seed and % pounds of
dirt, chaff, ETC., thrown in to make the
so pound bushel, and giving a stand
of 1872 per cent of clover. In the "Pin-
nacle" brand the clover seed costs AZ
cents pound, but practically the
whole so pounds is high grade clover
seed from which sc or 81 per cnet
stand may be expected.
''The companies selling these seeds
have been warned by the State Seed
Inspector that shipments of seed like
those described above would not be
allowed to reach Wisconsin farmers
if it could be prevented. Several farm
ers have already been kept from using
seeds, analysis of which showed them
to be of such quality that they might
better be burned than sown on the
farm. Such shipments cannot be
stopped by means of any law now on
the statute books. Hence, this notice
to Wisconsin farmers. Every farmer
who has purchased Economy brand
seed of red clover, or mixed alsyke and
timothy seed from either of these
firms, should send a sample to the
Seed Inspector for examination be-
fore using it. These firms guarantee
to take back all seed which proves I'M
satisfactory and to refund the money.
So there is no excuse for using red
clover or mixed seed purchased from
them the use of which is menace to
profitable farming.
