Ohio's potato acreage mas oecreas 81

An important factor in the decreased

considerably more than the average.

VALUE OF oHIo's WHEAT
CROP BOOSTED ssoo.ooo

The saving of improved varieties OF
sasJ wheat Is expected to enable ONO
farmers to produce q hall miliion uoi
lar larger crop next season. y
After years of experimentation, tne
Ohio Agricultural EXPERIMENT sla
t;on has shown that certain improved
strains will produce higher yieios
than parent varities. .e-..
In order that the most ettective
distribution of this wheat couia pe
made in Ohio farms, an agreement
was reached three years ago between
the Experiment Station and the coun-
tv agricultural agents, representlns
The farm bureaus, for the allotment Oh
this seed by the Station only on tne
recommendation of the county agents'
Accordingly, in the fall OF 1919, ne-
tween 200 and 800 bushels OF Glad
dem. Trumbull, Portage and Ohio lz1
wheat were distributed in this way.
Last fall, home grown seed OF these
varieties had multiplied until TINS 81 h1ga y I
producing wheat was sown on lo'zoi
acres. County agricultural agents es-
timated the increased yield from
these varieties in previous years &c
have been from two to ten bushels
greater than from local varieties II
the increased yield only averages
three bushels per acre, ana Wnea'
brings So a bushel, the increased pro.
duction will thus be valued at ove'

VITALITY OF SEEDS Il
DIMINISH WITH AGE

How long will seeds remain alive!
This question is answered for farmers
through tests made at the Ohio Ex.
pertinent Station on the longevity OF
seeds, including corn, oats, soybeanns
and wheat. Tests were made with 70
different kinds Of grain. ooo
With corn, seed gathered in l9oS
and germinated during the 1920 sea-
son was very low in vitality. Ihe
grains produced very weak sprouts as
compared with one-year-old corn.
While farmers as rule do not keep
grains for seed over long periods OF
time the tests show that there is a
noticeable falling off in the growth
and vigor of sprouts with increase OF
age; also that many seeds have low
vitality when gathered during years
Of excessive humidity and rainfall.
Oats and wheat seeds gathered in
the summer of 1915 show extremely
low vitality because the rainfall for
July that year at Wooster was $3.50
fnches-the heaviest precipitation for
SO years. The 33-year average rain
fall for July at Woster is only ALT
inches.

ASH TIMBER GROWS
EASILY FROM SEEDLINGS

White ash is one Of the most valu-
able commercial species TO grow IN
woodlands in northern Ohio, accord
inc to the department Of forestry at
the Ohio Experiment Station.
This tree grows rapidly and may
be easily regenerated in native wood
lands BY natural seedlings. A few
ash trees in the woodlot will provide
plenty Of seed for starting new forest
growth.
Farmers desiring to propagate ash
in the woodlots may plant young
trees Of white ash; or, by collecting
seeds and growing it in gardens, the
young seedlings may be obtained.
The department Of forestry, Ohio
Experiment Station, Wooster, is
growing ash seeds for distribution to
land owners who wish to propagate
the white ash.

YOUNGSTERS MAKE NET
PROFIT OF $4,000

Approximately $500 boys and
girls were engaged last season in pro-
ducing food and clothing in agricul-
tural and home economics clubs, con-
Quoted by local agencies in coopera-
ton with the Ohio State University
and the U. s. Department Of Agri-
culture.
Of the 4,O72 youngsters exhibiting
at fairs, products valued at $26s,338
were produced. The net profits OF
their efforts was $147,026. The pro-
fits, however, are declared by leaders
of the club work to have been small
in comparison to the development Of
initiative, spirit of fair play, and the
business sense of the young people.
The work was conducted on an
organized basis of 70 of the SO coun-
ties in the state last season. Plans
are now being made for the conduct OF
the work in as many counties during
this year.
