Soybean Seeds
May Be Faulty
The two most important factors to
consider in buying seed soybeans are
their germinating ability and vantal
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 oe 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
ortory of the State Department of
.flfrrrcuiture.
Due to the short crop of beans in
1933 and the greatly increased demand
fler legumes this year, the price of
seed has trebled and even quadrupled
in some cases.
) As a result the market is being
flooded with inferior beans, and grow
ers should be more than usually wary
in selecting: their seed.
Dr. Middleton also pointed out that
tlie U. S. grading of seed is not a re-
linhle guide to their value for plant
iigf purposes, since they are not
graded according to purity and germ.
nation, ine grading is based more
on the commercial value of beans for
marketing purposes,

Timely Questions
And Answers On
Farm Problems
Qtie-tion: When should cockerels
he separated from pullets in the tlock
of baby chicks?
Answer: This depends upon the
facilities available but as a general
rule the birds should be separated as
-oon as the -e is determined. The
new (juarters, however, should be well
heated anil the cockerel- fully feath
ered before they aie moved. Cocker

ml i'Miw can it be con-

Answer: The trouble ,-aused by
a small worm or larv 1 narrowing in
the soil under the plants. The soil
i lnosened by the larva and the plants
wither and die within a short time.
This larva develops into a harmless
black fly. The trouble is easily con
trolled by removing the canvass and
broadcasting about one 'and one-half
pounds of napthalene flakes or crush
ed moth ball- to each 100 square
yards of bed.
Question: How much lespedeza
seed is required to properly plant an
acre?
Answer: If the seed are sown, at
least one bushel or 25 pounds should
be used to the acre. Where eed are
available a few extra pounds could
be sown without waste, Less seed
are required when drilled. The drill
should be set very' shallow. When
the seed are drilled, they may be
mixed wiih superphosphate, basic
slag or ground limestone.

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 bo obtained during the
coming planting season, according to
I.. I- Case, animal husbandman at
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 imuair efficiency.
A 1,000 pound work animal needs
a daily ration of 11 pounds of grain,
such as oats, barley, or a combina
tion of these feed-. In addition it
needs six pounds of good quality
legume hay, such as soybean-, cow.
peas, alfalfa, or clover, and five or
six pounds of non-protein roughness
such as timothy hay, corn stover, or
gr"ss hiy.
For heavier or lighter 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-i v for each 100 pounds of weight.
Case also warned against watering
or feeding overheated animals. Am
nio timp to cool off should be given
1 ..rre tnoy are pcrmit;ted to eat or
drink.
permanent pasture is valuable in
cutting down the feed bill, and will
also provide an excellent place for
the animals to roll and rest when
'hrough work. Idle animals need no
red other than th it of a good pasture.
Work animals with plenty of pastur
ing need only half the usual grain
ration.
"So your wife ha.s gone to Palm
Rearh for her health. What did she
have?"
"Kight hundred dollars her father
gave her."
It was dusk when a young lady
stopped at a roadside filling station.
''A quart of red oil. please."
The attendant gasped, "R-r-red
oil?"
"Certainly; the tail-light has gone
out."

An old farmer, with a house full
of boys, was one day tugging away
at a large piece of timber. Finding it
rather hard work, he called his boys
one after another, at the top of hi
voice, but received no response. Fin
ally, after he had no need of them,
they all arrived.
"Where." said he, "have you all
been and what were you doing? Did
not you hear me yelling? '
"Out in the shop, settin the .tw.''
replied one.
"And you Dick?" continued tau
father.
"Out in the barn, ;ettin' the hen.''
"And you, Jack?"
"Up in Granny's room, settin' the
clock."
"And you Tom?''
"Up in the garret, settin' the rat
trap." 'And now, Master Fred. what
were you settin'?'' asked th farmer.
