Dear Mrs, Colclough; ,
'Sometime ago our minister, Mr.
Staffin, gave sue a parcel of clothes
with your name and address enclosed,
and I am writing to thank you and
your helpers for the kindness that
made this gift possible. M have al-
ways been familiar with the saying
'A little help is worth a deal of pity,'
and this lats year or so I have proved
the truth of it. The dresses, etc„ for
the little girl were most welcome as 'I
had about come to the end of things
I could make over, and children do
seem to need so many clothes, and
the quilt was a most splendid gift as
it has been difficult to replace bed-
ding with the litnited means at our
disposal this last few years. Trusting
that this letter of appreciation will in
some measure repay the donors of
the things received, I am Yours truly,

AVOID 'SOWING INJURED.
SEED GRAIN
(Experimental Farms Note.)
Most .soils devoted ,to the growing
of grain are infeoted ,with ,fungi
which cause .various ro'otrot diseases.
Experiments carried rout at the Do-
minion Rust iResearch Lahatoiy,
Winnipeg, have h.own'' conclusively
that when injured seed is sown the
crop resulting from it is Hitch more
severely dansa'ged by these fungi. than
is a trap .produced from uninjured
seed. The amount of inijuny to the
seed need not be great, If the bran
layers are broken, even to a slight ex-
tent,, an opportunity is -given to the
fungi to invade the kernels and feed
upon theist. The plant 'food stored in
the 'kernels is for the use of the young
seedling's while they are developing
a root system. The fungi, when :they
invade the broken kernels, rob the
seedlings o•f their food supply. Hav-
ing access
av-ingaccess to this new supply of food
blue fungi develop rigorously in the
immediate vicinity of the .kernels. The
young seedlings in their struggle for
life are greatly 'handicapped. They are
'weakened through lack all food, and
they are surrounded and attacked by
vig'orou's enemies, They .fall a prey to
the attack. Blighting of planets, thin
stands and low yields are the results,
'Seed grain'' is generally inlju'red dur-
ing the threshing process. Loose or
improperly set teeth in the threshing
cylinder, and "encl-play" in the cyl-
inder, are responsible to a great ex-
tent for cracked or bruised kernels in
the throttled grain..Screening may re-
move cracked or 'broken kernels but
will not remove the Ibruised or sligh1-
ly injured ,ones, hf the proportion of
the fatter in seed grain is high,, :the
crop resulting 'from such seed may
suffer hetivi:y throulglh.rootrot disease,
