number Of cases Of litigation in our

value of will in guarding against

Cleaning Of Grain to Abolish
Dockage Losses Due Weeds
and Smut to Be Shown

Bismarck is to have the 500 Line
seed special here Thursday evening

The train will arrive here at 1880

at the 500 depot. H. A. McNutt. ag-
ricultural agent OF the road IS in
charge.
The train carries pure seed samples
and outfits for cleaning seed and
treating them against smut and other
infections. Trained men Of the roads
agricultural staff are aboard and will
explain to the farmers the various
operations for insurance Of clean,
healthy seed supply, so as to rid the
state Of is weed dockage and infected
grain evils. These are calculated to
be costing the farmers Of the state
about As cents an acre. It costs five
cents an acre to protect the grower
against such losses.
At the stations along the line the
train gives farmers demonstrations
by cleaning seed that they bring In.
They can thus learn the percentage
iof dockage in their grain. This
shows them the toll exacted from
them by weeds and smut. It indi-
Gates the unnecessary freight bill they
have to pay in shipping grain to mar
ket. Also the feed they lose In the
dockage which might be put to such
use IL taken from the grain on the
farm and kept there as feed for poul-
try and swine, even cattle and sheep.
