Stecher Seems to
 Outclass All His Rival Grapplers Now

Joe Stecher stands out so promf- nently from the other members of the heavyweight wrestling brigade that he may be said to be in a class by himself. Rumors are heard now and then of the prowess of Marin Plestina and John Pesek, who are proclaimed as real contenders for the title, but Plestina did not sh cw very much in his single important match in the East, and Pesek has not shown much either. Strangler Lewis, Wladek Zbyszko, Earl Caddock and Jim Lon dos all have had a fling at Stecher within the past few months, but none has fully even extended the champion. Stanislaus Zbyszko may have an ex- cellent chance with him, but few of those in, or closely connected with wrestling, profess to believe so.

SEED VERY POOR

The indications are that seed wheat
has low terminating qualities this year
and it will take careful tanning and
selection to get the best Of it out for
seed. In all probability the 1919 crop
contains sufficient amount Of good
wheat to SOW the required acreage in
Minnesota, North and South Dakota,
but it will take very careful handling
to grade it, to treat it for smut and
to test 1t for termination.
Farmers are accustomed to taking
their wheat from their own bins, there
fore the cost of seed wheat will be ap-
proximately that of Marquis wheat or
possibly 10 to Is per cent above. Farm
ers will continue to grow wheat if they
can be reasonably sure of a fair
profit. The price is high and will
be high for the year. Every effort
should be made to SOW a normal acre
age of spring wheat.

HOME GROWN SEED

Repeated tests In the spring wheat
states prove beyond any question that
Marquis outyielde any other spring
wheat and because of it's excellent
milling qualities is gaining very rapid
ly In popularity.
Being a better wheat than the other
Flies, Bluestem and Velvet Chaff in
most localities, a concerted action
should be taken to establish Marquis
as the standard wheat.
Homegrown seed If of fair quail
ity, is better than that obtained from
a distance, although a good seed
brought from another locality is usual
" better than poor seed grown at
home. Each farmer will do well to
keep his seed as pure as possible and
to select for seed a field which can be
kept free from weeds and other grain
mixtures. Every farmer ought to es-
tablish seed plot on different piece
Of ground each year and keep enough
seed for at least two years. Often.
times seed grown from such plot is
worth a lot of money.
IF good seed is not available at home
or In the locality, ask your banker or
elevator what plans have been made
to bring seed into the county or write
to the state experiment station. IF
you have any 1913 seed do not sell 1t
ut the elevator but keep It for seed
and let your neighbors know that you
have some good seed. Don't sell any
wheat suitable for seed at the eleva-
tor for the market. Hold It for seed.
Somebody wants 1t. Seed is scarce
this year.

SEED wheat

Select seed 18th dark flinty kernels
free from yellowberry. Marquis is the
favored wheat because it contains
plenty of gluten Of the best quality
for bread-making. 1t natures from
five to ten days earlier than other
wheats, avoiding danger from hot
winds and drought. Being earlier it is
not so liable to rust. 1t does not she'll
out and waste so badly as Bluestem,
Fife and Velvet Chaff during harvest
