TESTED AND TREATED
SEED CORN is BETTER
[COHtinued from first bage]

that are carried on the seed, were
conducted on four farms in Kent
county last year by County Agent
Russell E. Wilson, who has been
working on this project for several
years in an effort to improve the
quality of the corn and thereby
place the crop on a more profitable
basis throughout this section of the
country.
In checking over the yields of
corn on the treated and untreated
plots on each of these four farms it
was found that the seed which had
been treated with these dust disin-
fectants produced on the average
of 3.5 more bushels of corn per acre
than the remainder of these fields
which had been planted with I'M
treated seed. In addition to this
increase in yield, the treated plots
also produced corn that was more
solid and mature and in a much
better condition for cribbing than
was that which was harvested from
the fields at large.
In order that additional data may
be obtained concerning the value
of this seed treatment, however,
arrangements are being made by
County Agent Wilson to conduct
similar demonstrations on ten farms
in different sections of the county
this year, and in discussing this
subject with a number of other
farmers this spring it has been
learned that several of them are
planning to treat all of their seed
corn with these dust disinfectants
which are used at the rate of two
ounces to each bushel of shelled |
1Crn.
The corn is treated in practically |
he same manner as seed wheat is
reated for the shrinking smut, in
hat the shelled corn is placed in a
light container such as a barrel or
)ox and revolved for a few minutes
II order that the dust may become
thoroughly mixed and distributed
'ver the grains.
The use of these dust disinfect-
nts in addition to the testing of
he seed for its termination vital
ty may be regarded as two of the
most important factors in the pro-
uction of profitable crop of
Orn, and those farmers who are
ot practicing these methods along /
nth the program of proper fertm-
zation and cultivation cannot ex- ]
ect to realize the most profit from
heir labor and money invested.

COCKER SPANIELS HELD
QUALITY IN ANIMAL LIFE
Designation Of Aristocrat, Long in
Use, Still Maintained at Lon-
don Dog Show.


LONDON, England.-Cocker spaniels
are still the aristocrats of the dog family
in England. That is demonstrated at
the English dog show. Since Elizabeth's
day the Cocker has enjoyed the society
of titled men and women. And titled
folks still cling - the pet that is COM
paniopable. Queen Marie. half-Eng-
lish, took her Cocker spaniel to America
with her. He is a ia.orite in the clubs
where nonogcnarian lords pass their
afternoon gazing out into st. Jemes'
street
Alsatians run the Cocker spaniel a
close second III spite OF the prejusice
against their German origin and the
popular idea that they are extremely
dangerous. 1t is only 20 years since the
AlsatianS first came to British dog
shows as German ShacpdogS The
British army was as fond of the Ger
man dogs rs the American soldiers were,
and brought thousands of them back
from the RhinelanC,.
Labradors have also gained wide pop
ularity in England and the breeders find
considerable difficulty in tracing the an
ceStry of this breed. Fifty years ago
Newfoundland had many blaci. &c
trievers which had smooth hair and
somewhat res S1mbled the modern Lab
radors but SCme experts declare the
Labrador is product of the European
continent. regardless of MS name.

well established that unhealthy condi-

"A serious problem confronts the

POET OF PIANO
WRC STAR

In the trio Of interesting happen
ings promised, as loud speaker d.
version this evening, perhaps the
majority of WRC listeners will be
most interested in the piano re-
cital of e =. Hargraves in the
Kit hour, although the production
of Franchetti's grand opera, Mann
iko San," with Tamaki Miura,
Japanese soprano, as star VIII
divide attention. We're rather in
terested in the Hargraves recital,
however, because he comes from
Europe to radio listeners via the
Pacific coast with the reputation
of being 1.-THE poet of the piano"
The program he will play this
evening would indicate that the
title has some foundation, as most
of it is that type of piano music
an artist can transform into the
purest poetry of tone. The De-
busy "Reverie' is one Of the num-
bers most Of us anticipate hearing
with interest. The Chopin Rain
Drop etude is another and yet
another is a piano arrangement OF
Wagner's Tristan and Isolde. !"
