Selecting Your Vegetable
Seed
The vegetable grower should al-
ways remember that good seed is
essential to success, and no matter
if he gives the closest attention to
all other factors he cannot achieve
this success without it, Since the
cost of seed is a small portion of
the total expense of production, the
oect seed obtainable should be us-
ed.
In the selection of good seed the
requirements are as follows:
1. It should be viable. The vital-
ity of a given lot of seed depends
upon the initial germinating power
which is influenced by proper ma-
turity and curing to low moisture
content plus storage in a dry, well -
ventilated place. Nevertheless it is
a well-known fact that the differ-
ent vegetable seeds retain their
viability for different lengths of
time. The following gives the
length of time seeds may be ex-
pected to live when properly hand-
led:
Asparagus. 3 years; beans, 3
years; beets, 4 years; cabbage, 5
years; carrots, 3 years; celery, 5
years; cucumbers, 5 years; lettuce,
5 years; melons, 5 years; onions,
2 years; parsnips, 1 year; peas, 3
years; peppers, 4 years; pumpkins.
4 years; radish, 5 years;, spinach,
5 years; squash, 5 years; sweet
corn, 2 years; tomatoes, 4 years;
turnips, 5 yeah.
Many seed houses now stamp on
their containers the percentage
germination and date of last test.
Where this is not supplied the
grower would be well advised to
carry out his own germinating test
prior to seeding. The simplest test
of this nature is to place a counted
number of seeds between moist
blotting paper, invert a dish over
same to prevent drying out and
place in a warm place. From the
actual counts the percentage of
viable seeds is calculated.
2. it should not contain weed
seed or foreign matter.
3. It should be free from disease.
Much of the present dry seed is
produced in restricted areas by
two years or more small test rows

e
specialists and is government in-
spected against disease. However,
another precautionary method is
the use of standard seed disinfect-
ants which may be applied by the
seed firm or the grower.
4. It should be true to name and
of a. good strain. This pont is of
prime importance and is one which
gives the vegetable grower the
greatest concern. The grower is
wise to deal only with long estab-
lished, well known, reliable seed
houses.
Even though he may have the
utmost confidence in the source of
bis seed, the grower can, in some
instances, pre-test his samples.
With seed which has a viability of
can be grown the year previous to
the roam. crop.
From reliable firms, where fair-
sized orders are given, it is often ;
possible to obtain the stock num- j
ber and order seed of the same
trsntage the following year.
Another method is verifying the
stock is for the grower to save his
awn seed. This, however, is a
•,i: hly specialized business and is
not generally recommended.

Hello Homemakers! Do you re-
call the .old saying, "A merry heart
doeth good like medicine?" Being
confined to bed is not much fun and
it takes a great deal of thoughtful
attention to sustain a patient. It
may be a sympathetic smile or a
cheery card or letter which helps.
Then, too. there is the prospect of
an attractive tray three times a
day. The restful atmosphere of a
room also makes a difference—
freshly laundered bedclothes, an
extra pillow, a box of tissues and a
thermos of water. A bedside table
placed conveniently for the invalid
may be the coffee table from the
living room because, if the bed is
low, he needs a low place for his

Clean the sick room daily and do
it quietly. This is often quite a job
without raising too much dust or
the patient's temperature. If you
must be nurse and housekeeper,
streamline your household tasks so
that you get plenty of rest too.
When the tray is brought to the
beside it should provide something
attractive and surprising. By the
way, a bed tray is a good purchase
for family use. On the tray place
a. colorful plastic mat and set
something interesting amid the
essentials such as a flower in a boa
bun dish, a novelty salt shaker, a
quaint little cream jug or individual
ramekin dishes to hold the food.
