CERTIFIED SEED.
GOOD seed is the first requirement for an excellent
V crop . because only good seed will grow vigorous
and productive plants.
Canadian Certified Seed Potatoes are good seed potatoes.
By planting them, higher -quality, cleaner, smoother,
more uniform potatoes than those grown from ordinary
seed stock will be produced:
' So, this season, to harvest finer potatoes and more of
them, plant Canadian Certified Seed.
Be sure to select the variety most suitable for your locality.
-Ask the District Government Inspector, Plant Protection
Division, for full information and list of nearest distri-
butors.

Of Testing Seed Grain
....Dr. G. ;P, McRostle, „O:A,C., .,tells
how farmers may test germination
qualities of grain at home.
Ontario farmers are being advised
by the Ontario Dept. of Agriculture
to test all seed for germination be-
fore planting this year, With Perm
help scarce, every acre tiled should
be made to produce more bushels
per acre. Farmer's can test seed
at home and there is no time Ilea
the present.
Any method which keeps. §
moist and at average room tempera-
ture for six to ten days should re-
sult in •satisfactory germination,
says Dr. G• P. NLdIlostie, Field
ISusbandry Dept O.A.•C; Guelph. He
states a Ave inch or larger flower
pot makes a suitable container.
T,his can be filled about three-
quarters full of either sand, or
loamy earth which should be firmed
dawn. Scatter the seeds to be test-
ed over the top of the soil, spactug
them as evenly as possible; then
cover the •spaced 'sed with another
half to three-quarters of an Inch Of -
the game kind of soil, Paoli fisni6y
and keep moist but'not wet, Set In
some suitable place not too near Date
stove or window.
,Count the geminated reds at Dm
end of six days and again at the end
of ten days, The total number of
the 100 seeds which produce sprat:Ms
will be percentage germination- AMA'
sprouts which are weak and sickle'
looking should be discarded and not
Included in thefinal percent germin-
ation as they would not likely past: --
duce healthy Plante.
If the germination is about 85 pew --
cent, the seed' aliould be quite satis-
factory to plant *1 the regular rates
of seeding.
It it is between 60 and 85 Percent.
the rate of seeding should be to
creased in proportion to the pert
of kernels heat do not grow.
11 gertnitnnation is below 60 perenet,
it would seem advisable to seem*

possible the rate of seeding would'
