Good Plan to Treat
Minturki Wheat Seed

It's good practice to treat all
small grain seed before planting,
says J. J. Christensen, assistant
professor of plant pathology of the
University of Minnesota. AS it will
soon be time to sow winter wheat
again, Mr.. Christensen advises
treatment of the seed, even of
Minturki which is known for it's
hardness and resistance to smut
and other diseases. Other varieties
are more susceptible and should
be treated by all means. Mixtures
get into seed and increase the need
of treatment.
After good seed has been select
ed it is important to use the. proper
disinfectant. Copper carbonate
dust is recommended for use on
Minturki-two ounces to the bush
ell of seed. The copper carbonate
should be of at least 20 per cent
copper equivalent and should cover
the seeds.
Extensive experiments are being
made at University Farm to deter
mine the best fungicides and the
best ways of using them in order to
control diseases and increase yields
of wheat, oats, barley, rye, and
other field crops which may be sub
ject to seed-borne diseases. How
ever, treating seed to control di-
sease is not the only object; an
other is to increase yields and IN
come.

community consciousness had been
lost in many instances. The
growth of cooperation has helped
to retain community consciousness
or to redefine it.
"Our cooperatives are helping to
break down racial and religious
barriers. There must be unity OF
purpose in a cooperative that sue
ceeds. This is so apparent that 1T
tends to wipe out narrow prejudice
of race and of religious creed.
"Our cooperative are promoting
education. They are finding in
Minnesota, as they found in Den
mark, that cooperative thrives und-
er the stimulus of intelligence and
progressive outlook. Minnesota is
favorably known for her CONSOLE
dated schools and her educational
system. The consolidated school
thrives best where cooperative So
cieties are most successful.
Economic return, the funda-
mental objective in cooperative
marketing, is also a means to an
end. 1t is a means toward secur-
ing better homes, better farms free
of debt; it is a means for educat-
ing the members of the family and
setting them on their feet in their
life occupation; it is a means of
securing recreational advantage
and making the country a desirable
place to live"

"The effectiveness of the things
which the Legion has accomplished
for the youth of our nation, along
educational and recreational lines,
the constructive service rendered
by individual hosts to their COM
munities, is evident in every Legion
town in Minnesota. Now that an
other convention has passed and a
new commander is elected, it is for
us to pledge ourselves to continu-
ance of the high ideals toward
which we have striven in the past.

Agricultural Notes
Many Lessons Learned
On State Potato Tour

So many interesting develop
ments featured the 1928 Mime
sofa state potato tour that it is
pronounced the best yet held.
At University Farm, where the
tour started, the visitors inspected
the tuber index plots where are
tested the seed stock samples OF
potato growers applying for certl-
fication. The variation in the per-
centage of masoic, which is respon-
sible for seed potatoes running out
was very striking in the different
lots. Some of the new seeding
potatoes that are being developed
by the university were found to
contain the better qualities OF the
older varieties and to show hlgheTf
Yields. One Seeding of the rural
type has so far greatly outylelded
all other varieties on the farm.
The company stopped near Osseo
on the run to Anoka and Sherburne
counties to study the condition OF
a field of Early Ohioe which was
being dug for the market, with
prospective yield of ESQ bushels to
the acre. The field had been plant
ed to potatoes for more than Zo
wears, said the owner, with only a
green cover crop of rye between
each crop. The acid nature OF the
sod had served to limit any ma
terial damage from scab.
Opportunity was given in Anoka
county to study a system OF peat
land protection against frost 10y
means of air drainage bitches, and
the great advantage of selecting
seed potatoes from high yielding
healthy hills. Seventeen different
methods of seed treatment, some OF
which gave a noticeable impetus to
termination, were on test on a
Sherburne county potato farm.
Value of good seed was demon
strated on a western Polk county
farm where half of a special plot
had been planted with tubers at
fected with the spindle tuber di-
sease and the other half with
healthy seed. The healthy plot had
a stand of 90 per cent, while the
runout seed showed stand of
less than so per cent.
Unofficial stops were made by
the tourists at commercial potato
fields where no special effort had
been put forth to select seed or
control disease. In these fields
blacHeg was appearing on many
plants as a slimp rot, while poor
stands and weak spindly plants
made it clear that the spindle tub
er disease was getting in its work.
Increased interest and distinct
progress in potato cultivation were
noted by R. C. Rose of the agri-
cultural extension service of the
university and A. G. Tolaas of the
State Department of Agriculture
who were in charge of the tour.
The attendance ranged from 80 to
40 at the beginning to a caravan
of "A cars carrying $50 persons in
western Polk county.
