LJCCESS or failure depends tc
-.k a large extent upon the quality
of the seed sown. No man can
afford to use low-grade clover
or grass seed. The risk of seeding
down the farm with. noxious weed
seeds is too groat. I3igh-grade clover
and grass seed is freer from weed
seeds and produces_ more healthy,
vigorous plants per pound than doss
low-grade seed. Impure seed is dear
at any price. • Pure seed is the Mir,
Chasel''s • ritrl)t
PA he elsouald insist
on having ft.
In the purchase of clover aaad grass
seed the following quuiities should
be looked for: -
1. Freedom from weed seeds, es-
pecially those weed seeds covered by
the Seed Control Act. The weed seeds
can be properly seen only by spread-
ing out the simple of clover or grass
seed on a clean white sheet of paper
and 'looking carefully over it with
the aid of a tripod magnifier or hand
lens. No farmer should be without
a lens of some kind. Everyone who
has to purchase seed should endeavor
to become familiar with the common
weed seeds and know the standards
of purity required by the Seed Con-
trol Act for the various grades of
clover and grass seed.
2. Freedom from dirt, grit, broken
straw and other inert matter. A great
many samples of cloverand grass seed
contain far too large a percentage
of such inert matter. Those buying
such seed are paying a high price per
pound for dirt.
3. Good size and color. A good
sample of seed of any kind should be
large, plump, bright, and have the
characteristic color well developed.
Plumpness, brightness and good color
are usually indicative of high germin-
ative capacity.
4. High germinative capacity.
Good clover or grass seed of any kind
should have a high germinative ca-
pacity. This cannot be accurately
judged by au examination of the seed
and can be ascertained only by a
germination test. Purchasers of seed
can have such tests made for them
by sending their seed to the office of
the Seed Commissioner, Department
of Agriculture, Ottawa.
Farmers are reminded that the De-
partment of Botany of the Ontario
Agricultural College is at their ser-
vice at all times for the testing of
seed as to purity. In submitting
t
samples forpuritytest' send at least
P
one pound of the coarser grains, one
ounce of alfalfa or red clover, and
half an ounce of alsike or timothy.
A full report on samples will be fur-
nished, Samples of seed should be
carefully packed and addressed with
postage prepaid to the Botanical De-
partment, Ontario Agricultural Col-
lege, Guelph.—Prof. J. E. Howitt,
0. A. College, Guelph.
Every Farmer Should Have Spray
Calendar,
Before giving the reasons why
every farmer should have a spray
calendar let us state what a spray
calendar is. It is the gathering to-
gether into a small space—usually
just one sheet or page—of all the
necessary knowledge for the control
of the various ]resects and diseases
that attack our fruit trees and bush
fruits; so that instead of having to
search half a dozen bulletins the
farmer can obtain the required in-
formation almost at a glance. A spray
calendar is therefore a handy refer-
ence sheet on the coutrol of insect
pests and plant diseases,
Everyfarmer should have a spray
calendar for the following reasons: -
1. Because it will save him time
in finding the necessary information
on the control of insects and plant
diseases.
2. Because the information given
in the spray calendar is more reli-
able than he can obtain from his
neighbors or any other source. It is
the best information that can be ob-
tained anywhere.
3. Because the spray calendar will
prevent costly mistakes due to slips
of memory.
4, Because the spray calendar
states definitely when to treat the dif-
ferent pests. A week too early or a
week too late would in the case of
some of our worst insects and dis-
eases mean utter failure. There is a
good reason for each date of treat-
ment given in the calendar, It is not
guesswork.
5. Because the spray calendar
states definitely the mixture or mix-
tures to use in each, case and gives
the proper strength. Too strong a
mixture would mean loss of money
and sometimes burning of the foliage
or fruit; too weak a mixture failure
to control the pest,
6. Because several spray mix-
tures, e,g„ Bordeaux mixture, can be
=Ad,a. at;-•] a e.. 93�sna ay,. cbleudar
tete haw i.o ialse these,
7. Because by following the diree-
•tions given In the spray calendar,
almost perfectly clean .fruit and much
more of it can be obtained,
Always ask for the latest spray
calendar, since they are revised from
time to time, and new and better
methods added in place of the old as
soon as they have been sufficiently
tested.
How can spray calendars be ob-
tained? Send a postcard to the De-
partment of Agriculture, with a re-
quest for ono. Write your name and

Tire bistory cf some farmers' as
sociations in Ontario has been brief
tired tilted with troubles, Others havo
built upon the rock and have endur-
ed. Why tho difference?
Perhaps a very short story will
explain the former case. A fat'mere:
club, organized by a district repro:
sentative, got away apparently to a
good start, then halted uncertainly
and finally died a lingering death
from general debility. When asked
to explain the reason the represen-
tative gave one—promptly and with
:ne:h cosi s,
-Lae .iub died hawse the farm-
ers didn't want, it. The members
wore easily persuaded to orgauize
but -never took any real interest In
it --they were never really convinced
that it was a vitt.' necessity.
":3o far I haven't heard any pro-
poaai to revive it either, and I don't
intend to atternet to inject any arti
eclat stimulation into it. Whoa the
farmers in that district are really
"sold" to the idea of tho necessity
of organization, theu we'll be to a
position to do ee ne work."
That explains the first cause of
most failures. Artificial stimulation
serves to carry an invalid through a
dangerous pass, but as a steady dict
for a healthy body it is foredoomed
to failure. A farmers' association
must not be an inv slid i when out-
side stimetletion f.rts to be g a L, ..
is a safe bet its days are numbered..
But many others have succeeded.
Work — doing things — is the secret
,of their success. They make every
member conscious of the value of or-
ganization in the community. The
executives are enthusiastic, they have
developed progressive policies and
they work to make them successful.
And work honestly undertaken and
wisely directed will always make a
club or association successful if it
has the right kind of material to
work with.
In the summer, the club ought not.
to be allowed to lose its grip,
How about a herd testing scheme—
has your club taken that up yet?
Perhaps those members needing
drainage can have surveys made of
their fields, purchase tile co-opera-
tively, secure 'a'traction ditcher, and
if need be, borrow provincial funds
to pay a large part of the cost. End-
less ways present themselves to make
the farmers' association a real force
in every month, Above all, don't for-
get the farmers' picnic ---a little fun.

Wight on Airplane Future.
The restricted use of airplanes at
the present time is due not to the
danger of traveling in the air, but
to the backwardness of cities in not
providing landing places, in the opin-
ion of Orville Wright.
A statement issued by Mr. Wright
is the first gun of a campaign started
by inventors and designers of air-
craft to boom airplanes for trans-
portation work, including the carry-
ing of passengers and mail, for sport
and for national defence.
In Europe, and particularly that
part near the front, airplanes are as
common as automobiles were a few
years ago.
Mr. Wright's statement is as fol-
lows: "It is most difficult to foretell
all of the future of aviation. No
doubt many uses will develop which
are now entirely unforeseen. The
most immediate and practical uses
will be for national defence, for
sport, for transportation of mail and
light merchandise and for passenger
service supplementing special trains.
"A commercial demand will be
quickly created when safe landing
places for the present high-speed ma-
chines are provided at frequent inter-
vals, or when a type of machine is
developed which can sanely land on
any ordinary ground.
"I believe the use of the airplane
for sport and commercial uses up to
this time has been entirely due to
the lack of facilities for safe land-
ing at any and all times.
"Many of the present military ma-
chines can be utilized in mail service
between cities where the interlying
territory provides frequent landing
places. I believe the peace -time use
of the airplane will be in proportion
to the safety provided."
Broom Corn Scarce.
The scarcity of broom corn has led
to the use of a substitute, In south-
ern California the yucca, or Spanish
bayonet, as it is familiarly called,
thrives. This has been successfully
used in manufacturing brooms. An-
other species of yucca is good for
surgeon splints, and now experiments
are under way to see if it may not bo
utilized in the making of artificial
limbs.
