What trolle be con- Soybean Seeds May Be Faulty The two most important factors to consider in buying seed soybeans arc their germinating ability and varital purity, says Dr. G. K. Middleton, State College extension seed .specialist. A close examination of representa tive samples will reveal the purity of most seeds, except some of the black varieties, such as Otootan and Lar-edos- But the germinating capacity of seed can be determined only by actual test- A test can be made in a rea sonably short time by county agents, vocational teachers, or by seed lab rtory of the StatP Department of Agriculture. Due to the short crop of beans in 1933 and the greatly increased demand ftrr legumes this year, the price of seed has trebled and even quadrupled i some caees. ) A a result the market u being flooded with inferior beans, and grow ers should be more than usually wary in selecting their seed. Dr. Middleton also pointed out that Uie U. S. grading of seed is not a re- jiame guiae to tneir value lor plant ing purposes, since they are not graded according to purity and germ, ination. The grading is based more on tne commercial value of beans for marketing purposes. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS Fines Creek Honor Roll For February Eleventh grade Lucy James. Eighth Grade Edna James.

Get Work-Stock Ready For Spring Work stock that has been idle most of the winter should be carefully pre pared for heavy work if maximum efficiency is to be obtained during the coming planting sea-son. according to I-. I- Case, animal husbandman nt State College. Stock that has been wintered on low grade roughage and a minimum quantity of grain, for the sake of. economy, should be gradually brought up to a working ration. Too sudden a change is liable to upset digestion and impair efficiency- i A 1.000 Dound work- animal non.l) a daily ration of 11 pounds of grain, such 2s oaks barley, or a combina tion of thes,. feed . In addition it needs six pounds of good quality legume hay, such as soybean--, cow. neas. alfalfa, f.r clover, and five or six pounds of non-protein roughness su-eh as timothy hue. r.m et. J gr"SS h ry. for heavier or hghter animals the amount of feed required can be cal culated at the rate of 1.1 pound of grain and 1.25 pounds of hay per d'. v for each 100 pounds of weight. Case also warned against watering nr feeding overheated animals. Am nio timp to cool off should be given 1 ''""re they are permitted to eat or drink. A permanent pasture is valuable in cutting down the feed bill, and will also provide an excellent place for (he animals to roll and rest when 'nrough work. Idle animals need no i"ed other than th t of a good pasture. Work animals with plenty of pastur ing need only half the usual grain ration.

Finding it rather hard work, he called his boys one after another, at the top of ni voice, but received no response. Fin ally, after he had no need of them.
