Of Interest toFarmers. The winter will soon be past and the time for spring sowing be at hand. It will then be of the greatest importance that farmers should know whether they are sowing good or bad seed; that is, seed which will have full germinating power: Now, the Government at Ottawa 'has made provisions whereby any agri- culturist'in the land, without one cent of cost to himself!, may know just what amount of vitality his seed grain pos- sesses. An important pert of the prper- imental Farm system at the Capital is a seed -testing house, where, by the niost approved scientific methods, the per- centage. of germinating power in, say, 100 seeds is ascertained. To enftble each farmer to avail himself of this valuable privilege, Hon. Mr. Carling has made arrangements whereby seed; or letters of inquiry may be .sent through the mail free of cost. :It is only necessary to address the envelope "Central 'Exper- imental Farm, Ottawa,'' and place there- in, say, 250 seeds, along with the writer's address; and drop the package into a letter box or post office. ;In the course of ten days or two weeks • the -.answer will :bereturned. Farni.ers are not so busy just now that,a single one need` deny himself this. privilege: • -Ata recent meeting of the'Ladie"s, Guild, held at the residence of Mr. B.
