EquGlizing Value Of

The Board OF Review has been bus

made trips into each of the ten
townships. comparing representa-
tive farms ana appraisements given
them by the different assessors. The
plan has been in most cases 90 COM

in particular and 20 get general
idea of the run of the land through
out the townships so as 90 see
whether their general average COM
pares 10 the contrast 90 Toe found
along the township lines.
1t seems from the reports and rec
Ords that two or three OF our best
townships are assessed lower in pro-
portion than much of the poorer
land, MS the problem of equally disc
tributing this valuation is a Chinese

Certified Seeds For
Marshall County

Marshall county stands as one Of
the five leading counties for the mum
Der OF acreage of certified small
grains this year. Fields were cert-
fed last week as follows: Rosen
Rye. Marion Jones. Culver. Arthur
Dillon, Culver Turkey red wheat.
John Leland. Argos: Floyd Jacoby
and Roy Jacoby. Plymouth Trum-
bic wheat: Albert Burke, Walker
ton. Michigan amber wheat: Arthur
Scheetz. Bremen, and George Veis-
sert. Argos
To be certified. the grain must be
practically free from weeds and dis
ease. as well as mixture. "A total mix
ture or disease permissible must be
less than one percent. The inspec-
tor in charge stated that the Rosen
rye certified here would probably be
about the only Rosen rye certified
ia the state. and estimated its yield
at 35 bushels per acre.
This yield would probably be two
and one-haIf times the average rye
yield. and should interest men on
rye land in keeping up with pure
bred Rosen rye. Many of our far
mers will use what Is called Rosen
rye. but according 10 studies made by
the county agents office, more than
95 percent of our rye is badly mixed
with the common variety, due 10 the
readiness with rye crosses. It is also
interesting TO note that the only
fields Of wheat ceertified are the har-
dy varieties which carry high milling

MILDEWED CLOVER
HARMLESS TO STOCK
Observations in Cass County
Show No Sickness Caused
from Damp Clover.

Many farmers all over the county
and also in adjoining counties re-
port that red and mammoth clover
fields, which are being cut for hay
are covered with a mildew which
gives the caves grayish appear
ance. Samples have been indenu-
fed by the county agent as being

which lives over winter on weeds
and rubbish and when the weather
conditions I'm May and early June are
favorable this fungus spreads rap
idly.
II Will be noted that we have had
heavy dews during the past mo1tl
and also sultry and hot days. These
conditions have helped to stimulate
the growth of this fungus on clovers,
especially on medium red and mann
moth and only slightly attacking the
alsike clover.
Alfalfa and sweet clover has not
been subjected 10 the mildew. from

which Is foremost i'm the minds of
the farmers-is this mildew injuri-

Reports have been prevalent tha,
farmers have lost horses and cattlc

ing new clover hay or allowing stock

So far as the feeding of clover hay
Is concerned no authentic informa
ton has been received Il would be
advisable when feeding mildewen
