Seed Tags PreUent Loss

With a new planting season not so
far away, the subject Of seed selection
takes on renewed interest.
Certain important facts about seeds
seem still to be not very well known,
according to Mr.. R. E. Patterson of the
Western Seed Company Of Denver Es-
pecially is there lack OF information as
to the way to figure the actual cost of
the pure portion Of any given lot of
seed, says Mr.. Patterson.
Modern seed cleaning methods and
modern laws governing the labelling of
seed give present day planters some
valuable benefits not enjoyed by the
farmers Of few years ago.
Pure seed laws require that all crop
seed offered for sale must be accur-
ately labeled as to its purity and ger
mination.
The wise farmer reads the labels and
tags on the sacks. The higher the quail
ity indicated by the label, the higher
the price per pound of the seed. A little
figuring will show how to determine
the real value of the seed-that is, its
cost per pound Of seed that will &C
tually grow.

Matilda Edwards was to marry New

the ends of her life accomplished. But
Mary Todd kept her word and married
a president Of the United States. It
took her five years and she tore
Stephen Douglas, the man she really

her ambition, but on Nov. 6, 1924, she

rapidly In the orbit of greatness. She
knew that what she had suspected and
what Cousin Ninian had always said
was true. Abraham Lincoln was a great
man. And, womanlike, she must have

Matilda Edwards met men from Yale
and Harvard in those two glamorous
weeks. She met men whose names
would be written high in the nations
history. The Illinois legislature was In
session. A state was in the settling
and the moneyed men of the nation
were stretching out their tentacles to
boxes. Lawmakers were subject to the
pressure Of representatives Of stage
and steamboat lines, railroads but es-
pecially of dealers and spectators In
land In that year, l7075 patents were
issued for 1881 $40 acres of land. In
state and national politics, the public
lands were an issue. Behind them
doomed the darker and more sinister
shadows of slavery and secession.

The smoldering disharmony of
affairs at Columbus Avenue A.M.E
Zion Church broke into the open last
week when the annual New England
Conference adjourned leaving the
church unsupplied with a pastor
There had been rumors of discord
many of them apparently unfounded,
between the church members and the
former pastor, Rev. j. H. D. Bailey
He seems to have done a good job, yet
despite his popularity his program of
work has not received the approval
of many influential members of the
congregation.
Bishop Walls stern disapproval of
the un-Christian attitude toward Rev.
Bailey held them in check. When the
last conference convened, an ultima

The action taken by the committee
arose from the postponement of the

in qna,t e. the abolition of discrimina-
ton in national defense industries and
in the armed forces. 1t was felt that
Mr.. A. Philip Randolph's postpone

organizations with programs
