would not discourage the intro
duction of an improved variety OF corn
into any county or state. The corn
crop in the southern two-thirds Of
Iowa was improved and standardized
by importing Reid's Yellow Dent from
Illinois. But it was done with great
care. 1t required three or four years
to acclimate the new variety and make
it safe for the farmers to plant ii
for their main crop.
I wish only to warn farmers that it
is not safe to import seed corn from
more than SO miles and depend upon
1t for their main crop. In the first
place transportation charges and other
items make 1t expensive. in the second
place, the average yield is never as
high as when homegrown seed is used.
Seed corn grown upon your own
land Is best.
Do not conclude too soon that there
is no seed corn in your locality. Ask
your neighbors, your County Agent,
banker, experiment station, Chamber
Of Commerce, local paper-write to
your Agricultural College Do not Inn
port from the south under any cir
cumstances.
II you must obtain corn from some
other source than at home get it
from your nearest neighbor, keep with
in your own community, do not go OUT
side your county. Get busy, do some
thing, but don't get crazy and go to
importing seed corn from a distance,
and do not plant kernel until you
have tested it. Test, test, test every
ear and don't guess. Do not import.
These things will determine your sue
cess.

apostle and prophet Of the out Of

The following poem was written and
read by Mrs. o. A. Durham:
A Tribute to the Trees and the Man
Who Loved Them John Burroughs.
How grand thing is a sturdy tree
So beautiful and strong;
"A type OF the very sort of man
Extoled in story and song.
It weeps, and sings, and loves and
laughs,
Watching the world while the cen
turtles pass.
It lifts its head to the winter storm,
And is glad when Spring comes again,
At its feet sleeps the modest violet
Awaiting the gentle rain
To wake into life with a wondrous
| smile,
AS it turns its face toward God, the
while.
How sweet its voice when summer
winds
Sweep through It's branches wide,
Soft music like aellian harps
By Angel fingers piled,
And soft, mysterious whispering
Like spirit voices sweetly sing.
All day it points to the sunshine
bright,
And all night to the glowing stars,
Thus, calm and serene, yet full Of
life
It endures, though often the scars
or battle and conflict lie deep in its
heart
A lesson in courage man feels it i'm
part.
A man has gone who loved the trees.
The fields, the birds, the rocks, the
flowers,
Who taught US heaven lies close at
hand
Through Natures heart to meet with
ours.

His simple, child-like faith in friends.
Was typical of his great soul,
None ever turned to him in vain,
Love conquered all, did all control.
For him the flowers looked up and
smiled,
For him the birds sang sweetest
song,
For him the forest held more life,
Than measured in the cities throng.
He often spoke of life beyond
The confines OF this mortal sphere,
Though the trail was long ere the day
was done,
He faced the future without fear;
And somewhere, now, he lives in
peace
With God, and birds, and flowers, and
trees.
Miss Shimmin gave some Of his
readings and spoke in glowing tri-
butte of the useful life and the great
heritage he left us. She also thanked
Mr.. Thrill for selecting the site and
granting the permission to plant this

PLANT IMPORTED SEED
CORN.
BY p. g. Holden,

BY p. G. Holden,
Field Director, Agricultural Exten
sion Department, International Har.
vester Company.
Never plant seed corn grown more
than few miles from your farm
The nearer to your farm the corn is
grown the better the seed will be for
your use.
Corn brought in from other localities
will not be adapted to the conditions
under which they are to be grown
and reduction in both yield and quail
ity and in many cases total failure
will follow.
Many will say that seed brought
in from a distance is just as good
but wish to warn the farmers OF
the United States-do not be fooled.
Regardless Of all argument to the
contrary, thousands of tests made by
Experiment Stations, by the govern
ment and the results borne out in act
ual experience, prove beyond dispute
that seed corn imported from one
state to another even If it be but so
miles away, will produce corn in
ferior in both yield and quality.
These facts are not the results Of
one test in one year, in one locality,
but for, period Of eight years in SO
counties in Iowa with over six thous-
sand tests, and In not single case
do we find the imported samples equal
to the home grown seed. The home
grown corn In every test outyielded
the imported corn on an average Of
20 bushels to the acre, or II per cent,
and besides was Of better quality. Out
OF all these tests together with in
vestigations carried on by the govern
ment in % states, the results were
the same. There were instances where
inferior home grown seed was larger
than the average Of the imported seed.
Will we ever learn to save seed?
We can import potatoes, oats and
wheat but we cannot import seed corn
without paying the penalty.
It will be impossible to measure the
loss Of land, labor, food and money
which win come to the people Of this
country II we do not get into our
minds and into our hearts the Inn

act as guide in keeping the right
temperature.
From the start any chick that is
crippled or Of weak vitality should be
removed. Chicks pasted up behind in
dictate improper feeding and unless
these patches are removed the chick
will die. Care in the management of
the brooder and feeding often, little
at a time. overcomes either tendency.
After the second day II the chicks have
become accustomed to the brooder the
guard is removed. II the third morning
is bright and pleasant, all the chicks
can be forced out on the ground. At
the end Of week the chicks should
be forced out to prevent leg weakness.
A good sized yard to keep the chicks
away from the old hens and chicks Of
different ages should be built. At the
end Of 6 or s weeks chicks usually
do not need heat anymore.

Livestock Conference Called ct Ames
May 18th.
a. number Of men keenly interested
in the economical and profitable pro-
duction Of market livestock as well
as In the success Of the purebred
livestock breeders associations, have
suggested that conference Of those
interested be called to discuss ways
and means Of establishing closer
relationship within the livestock
breeding industry. I.
In response to these suggestions
such conference is being arranged
to be held at Ames. Thursday, May
18th.
The Farmer Breeder cannot do with
out purebred seed stock II he Is to
produce efficiently. The breeders Of
purebred livestock cannot continue
IN that business unless they can sell
their product at reasonable prices to
the farmer trade" which is the final
support Of any sound purebred live
stock industry.
"A II Is well enough to acknowledge
the mistakes and evils that have been
more or less responsible for the dead
lock which seems to exist in the
livestock industry. However, 1t seems
time that some attempt be made to
do something to bring the producer

Orchard, Spraying

The Farm Bureau power spray was
busy last week putting on the first
(cluster bud) spray. This spray is
made very strong to get all scale and
bark trouble. and for that reason We
put it on only the orchards that were
in need Of this spray as the time was
short to gst 1t on before the blossoms
opened. The next spray is the calyx
spray and will be put on when 50
per cent OF the blossoms have fallen.
We expect to spray as many orchards
as can be reached for the second and
third sprays.

a lot Of the loss.
