Use Os Certified Seed Recommended i — Only Way Farmer Can Be Certain of Best Product Only by purchasing certified seed can a farmer make certain that Jie is getting the best product available, says Dr. R. P. Moore, director in charge <?f the North Carolina Crop Improvement Association at State College. Dr. Moore says seed are unique in that their breeding cannot be de termined from appearance alone. To determine in advance the type of crop which a particular lot of seed can produce, it is necessary to know the history of the seed and the conditions •under which they were grown. In the production of hybrid corn, the plant breeder probably will know much about the performance of the proposed hybrid before it is actually produced. After it is produced, it is put through a series of tests to deter mine how its performance compares with that of commonly grown varie ties or hybrids. This type of information, Dr. Moore points out, is accumulated, summarized, and made available for all growers who wish to take ad vantage of it. On open-formula hy brids, similar information is avail able to reveal what the hybrid is, what it will do, and what it will not do. Farmers wishing to take advant age of this type of protection, says the Crop Improvement directors, are urged to'make use of certified seed.

Their task is to keep the flowing blood stream free of an excess of toxic impurities. The act of living —lift itself— is constantly producing waste matter the kidneys must remove from the blood if good heath is to endure. When the kidneys fail to function as Nature intended, there is retention of waste that may cause body-wide dis tress. One may suffer nagging backache; persistent headache, attacks of dizziness, getting up nights, swelling, puffinesa under the eyes—feel tired, nervous, all worn out. Frequent, scanty oi burning passages are sometimes further evidence of kid ney or bladder disturbance. The recognized and proper treatment is a diuretic medicine to help the kidneys get rid of excess poisonous body waste. Use Doan's Pills. They have had more than forty years of public approval.
