PREBLE CROP REPORT
SHOWS SUPERIORITY
OF CERTIFIED SEED

EATON, Ohio, July 24.-The super
iority of certified seed wheat as COM
pared with ordinary native seed, is
clearly shown by early reports from
Preble county fields sown TO the GER
titled seed.
Certified fields so far reported in
dictate an average yield of more than
so per cent above the yields for ordi-
nary seed Including all fields re-
ported, the average for the certified
seed is 81 % bushels and for ordinary
seed, Is ga bushels. If returns from
one field where unusual conditions
prevailed are eliminated, the aver
ages are 26 2-3 bushels for certified
and Is bushels for uncertified seed.
The farmers whose fields had passed
the certification inspection were noti-
fled to meet last Wednesday at the
office of the county agent, where an
agent from the state university ex-
planned the further steps that would
enable them to sell their seed under
the state certificate. A substantial
increase in price over market prices
will be realized by these farmers.
The yields reported at the time of
the meeting were as follows; Charles
Paddock, II bushels; Wilbur Christ
man, Is, average for community, 16;
A. B. Flory, 20, average for commun-
| ity, Is; Joe Kramer, %, average 16;
G. p Grothaus, 81, average IT; S. M
Paxton, 81, average IA; Joe French
! 25 IL, average IA; Charles Deem, "a
average Is. All reports so far are OF
the Trumbull variety
Few Pass Inspection
Of the IS farmers who last year CO
| operated to import 1900 bushels Of
Trumbull wheat and 200 bushels Of
| GLADDEN., only % passed the inspection
during the spring. This inspection de
| termines whether the field comes VI
to requirements in freedom from smut
rust, forign seed and other impurities
! It was remarkable fact that certified
! seed wheat fields contained only {
/ little rust and practically no loose
smut, the Trumbull having the name
! of being the most disease resistant
/ wheat grown. Loose smut was abund
ant on other wheat, running from three
| to 10 per cent and higher.
! Those farmers who will be able tt
have their seed certified are: A. B

DRY WEATHER HURTS
LEWISBURG WHEAT

LEWISBURG, o., July 24-Wheat
yields ranging from five to % bushels
are reported by Irwin Newman, far
mer two miles east of this city. Rust,
both red and black, have had some
effect on the wheat. but the unfavor-
able dry weather at the critical period
of ripening is blamed most seriously
Mr.. Newman also is of the opinion
that the warm weather at an unusual
period in the spring served TO damage
the grain which needs most rather COO
weather at that time. Wheat thresh-
ing is not more than half finished in
the Lewisburg territory.
Tobacco acreage in the same neigh
borhood, where it is the staple cash
crop, is said to be about normal and
the condition of the crop about the
same. Last years crop was practically
all sold at prices ranging from six
to II cents pound. although prices
of Is cents were offered after most
of the crop had left the growers bands.
Farmers in this neighborhood are
waiting for the results of Frank Black
ford's projected trip with Murray
Lincoln, state farm bureau secretary,
to the hurley tobacco fields of Ken
lucky, to investigate cooperative mar
keting, and express the hope that a
similar organization can be effected
here. The Kentucky growers are
claiming that a so per cent higher
price was realized through the organi
Zation than would have been the case
| otherwise.

The Serious Mark Twain.

Mark Twain's reputation rests on
his humor. He burst upon the world
as a writer recklessly jocund and hsia
riously informal. He gave the rough
pioneer life of the west in his day Q
humorous turn that appealed to all
as something different and unique.
His hu.nor rested in large part upon
carving things to extravagant imp L
cations. He was quick to see and poins
out the irrelevant and homogeneous. ia
pierced the hoax of pretension or as.
sumption. People at first thought OF
him as something of literary swash-
buckler out Of the untamed west, AMI
many still think of him as only
humorist.
But as he Is now seen in larger per-
spective through the admirable biog-
raphv OF Albert Bigelow Paine and the
fine tribute of William Dean Howellsi
the man Is seen to have a weighty, Sc
rious side that promises to live as
long as his humor. There was much
in Twain's experience 10 give serious
turn to his thought. His rapid rise
from obscure poverty to wealth and
fame was not without its serious re-
verses. The honors that came to him,
his friendships with thinking men and
women his bereavements that cut him
10 the heart, tended TO make him look
beneath the chances of misfortune TO
the springs and motive of human char
acter and action.
As a result Of this ripening and
broadening Twain came TO have an in
dubitable seriousness. The chief charter
istic of his serious thought was a
distrust of conventional attitudes and
prevailing opinions. His reasons car
ried him far afeld into realms of art,
history. language. study and religion.
With cynical and burning insight he
indicted the piety of Christian peoples
who could make great professions and
at the same time devise with increas-
ing ferocity deadly means Of making
war. All the Christian nations he saw
we're at the game. And the more ad-
vanccd they are the bigger and more
destructive engines of war they ere
ate"
Howells calls Mark Twain the Lin
coin of American literature. There
are several parallels between the two
men. Both came from homes Of power
" and were Of humble parentage. Both
had 70 make their way in the world
through their own unaided efforts and
both attained positions high in the
hearts 81 the people.
The cloud Of seriousness and pathos
does not hang over Twain as heavily
or pervasivciy as over Lincoln. But
the same rational insight that gave
him power to find humor IN the IN
conrruifies Of life revealed 20 him Also
the sti!l sal music Of humanity. Mark
Twain a. > humorist viii not Be val
ued les in the coming years. But

Plans Completed
To Study Weevil.
Canyon County Excur-
sionists Will Visit
Oregon Friday.

Plans for the alfalfa weevil excur-
sion to Malheur County on Friday,
June z, are now completed. The ex-
cursionists from the communities
south of Caldwell and near Nampa
will assemble at Caldwell at $50 a. M,
fast time, and leave Caldwell at a. m.
sharp. A stop will be made at Par
ma and the entire excursion from
Canyon County will leave Parma at
10 m. railroad time From the
Nyssa high school the excursion will
go one mile west and then proceed in
a northerly direction toward Ontario
stopping at all of the badly infested
fields for observation and study Of
the weevil in its various forms.
Lemonade and coffee will probably
be furnished the excursionists by the
Commercial Club of Ontario. The
noon day luncheon will be at the park
near the 0. S. l.. Depot. Following
the luncheon, a short program will
be given. Speakers will discuss the
history of the alfalfa weevil, its life
cycle, the amount of damage it is like
ly to do and the control methods now
recommended. Following this discus
sion. spraying demonstration will be
given on an alfalfa field just east Of
the city limits of Ontario. Those in
attendance at the excursion may. if
they prefer, cross the Snake River at
Ontario and return to Caldwell via
Fruitland and New Plymouth. In this
way, very good idea of the whole
district of southeast Idaho can be
gained by those in attendance Re-
ports from all over the County indi
cate that excursionists from every
part of the County will make the trip
and large attendance is expected.
