Early Seed Preparatio l a Mark. of Good Earming., Careful Selection Advised - Poor Seed ilaf Have Exeellent Feeding Value—, -, What Experiments With Seed Show—Buying tt Farm, fContribnted by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto,) Farmers, like other$, sere prone to put off to -day whet., they can do to- morrow, and, as a result, often neg- lect to get seed grain ready for sow- ing until the fine days of early spring call them to the land, Much time may be saved and the rush of spring work lightened if seed is pre- pared in the late months of winter for spring sowing. This early seed preparation will likely result also in the seed of different crops being sown at the right time to fnsure the greatest yields. use the Very- Best Seed.. The hest step lir good need selecc- tion should be the obtaining of the very best variety for sowing„ a var- lety whose yield is high and whose quality of grain is good. Varieties of oats, such as 04.0. No. 72, l3aneer, and 0,A.G, No 3; varieties of bar- lee, such as 0,A.C. No. 21; varieties of spring wheat, such as Marquis, Red Fife, and Wild Goose; varieties of spring rye, such es 0.:1.0, No, 61; varieties of geld pens, ouch as Cana- dian Beauty, Arthur, Potter,.and Golden Vine; varieties of field beans, such as herCommon White Pea bean; varietl,s a buckwheat, such as Rye, and Silver Hull, are all well dusted to Ontario conditions, Grant May Be Poor tor Seed :But Good t'or Feet). Small, sltrunkea, or brekee seed it as a feeding value clearly equal to that of targe, plump, sound seed. Seed selection experbnenta eouduct- ed at the 0. A. College, Guelph, leave shown, however, that there is a very' great 'difference in the value . of these for seed, purposes. ""last 1Vxperlu,elits Show, Varying qualitlt'd ot seed o; oats,. oariey, spring wheat, peas and field stens were tested, and it wus found tent one year's seed selection of seed gain has a Marked influence on the resuling crop. In every single in- stance, the large plump seed produc- ed a greater ylele of grain per acre than the medium sized, small,. shrunken, broken, or spilt seed. In the average of tour classes of grain, the large plump seed surpassed the shall plump seed in Yield of grain per acre by 28 per cent. ane, in the average of three elassee of grain, the plump seed gave an average yield over the shrunken, broken, or split seed of 64 per cent. In this experi- ment equal numbers of seeds were used In each selection, Large plump seed produced a larger, more vigor- ous, and more productive plant than that produced from small plump,. shrunken, broken, or split seed. It should be remembered too that where only t1u largest and plumpest grains are used for seed, the very nature of the selecion eliminates the majority of the weed seeds which may have been in the grain before selection. When the farmer has obtained the best variety and sown only the best seed of this variety, he has placed the very safest insurance possible on .he future of his crops.—W, j. Squir- rell, 0. A. College, Guelph, BUYING A FARM. Seine Very Practical and Timely Hints to Would-be Purchasers of Farm Property. The most imetorraiit decision that a fanner is called on to make is the selection of a farm on which to live and earn n a living. The Judgment ment C used in .making the selection of a f=arm may isinZe or' break a,nran, may tie him up for life to poverty or to wealth. In districts where the soil is uniformly good over a large area and where" prosperity is evident on all sides the. task is not so great and risky. But in districts where var- ious types and grades of sell exist a poor farm and a good farm may lie side by side. The good farm will no doubt help to sell the -poor one, which, by the way, is always for sale. See Your Prospective Farm In July. Parra purchases are most fee- quently made during the winter when the opportunity for close exam- ination is `least. This should not be so. If farms were purchased' on the basis of the crop showing during the month of July there would be fewer regrets. I•f a man contemplates pur- chasing a farm in a district where he has lived for a long period, he will know the soil and district con- ditions. Knowing conditions the pur- chaser will hand over hie, money with his eyes •wide open;..if he does not know conditions in the district he will be handing over his money with his eyes closed and must depend up- on the honesty of some one else. Purchasers of tarsus are advised to live and work in the,distriet of their choice for at least a year before in- vesting heavily. ---L. L. Stevenson,Y Sec- retary Dept, of Agriculture, Toronto.
