County Agricultural Agent
. 1 Chemical- treatment of seed is
an inexpensive insurance against
certain seed-born diseases which
cause poor stands and lower yield.
According to W. R. Kimbrough,
County Agent, the treatment also
protects seed against molds and
fungi in the soil and makes for
better germination, especially with
early planting in cold or wet soil
which is not in condition for quick
germination. *
Experiments and demonstrations
show that seed treatment will in-
crease cotton yi£l<| considerably ac
an additional cost of only 10 to* 15
cents an acre. The treatment
melhod is the us&^ofe-tM®. or three
ounces Of two per cent ceresan
per bushel, or one, to one and one-
half ounces of five per cent cere-
san per bushel. The seed should be
treated in a steel drum or similar
container having a light fitting
lid antl arranged to revolve on an
axis. The container should not be
filled to more than one-half capa-
-city so that the seed will fall con-
tinually as it revolves and receive
a unifom covering of the chemical
dust.
~-Kimbrough says that the treat-
ment usually has the further ef-
fect of causing a certain amount
of seedling vigor. The resulting
quicker growth allows earlier
chopping.
Grain spiguums ana sweet sorg-
hums often are affected by a dis-
ease called kernel smut. Evidence
of the "disease is kernels filled with
smiit'spores instead of sound -seed.
Planting seed not treated to " de-
stroy the spores will transmit the
smut to the next crop. The treat-
ment consists of either two oun-
ces of 50 per cent copper carbon-
ate, or one-half of an ounce of five
per cent ceresan per bushel. *" -
Kimbrough says the ceresan
must be used strictly according to
directions as ap overdose, or poor
distribution ofthe chemical may
injure the—seed. Finely ground
dusting sulphur at -the rate of 3
ounces per bushel also has been

The following poem is handed
tc the Review and is written by
James Dale Cooper who is 12
years old: -
I knew a little boy once upon a
time.
That didn't have a nickel and
didn't have a dime,
He was carrying his little box,
-And'was looking for a shine.
Up stepped a man, very" handsome
and tall,
He saw the little boy and he
* began to call,
"Come here~Sonny" he began to
h0i]eri
Shine my shoes nice and I will
give you a dollar.
He shined them neat and very
black,
But oh me, oh my, did If hurt
his little back. - *

The fuel used in American homes is a drain upon our limited resources
of labor and transportation. The necessity of conserving it is great since
the production and distribution of all fuel—coal, oil, electricity and gas
—depends on manpower which is in itself becoming scarce. The more fuel
used by civilians, the less of these resources there will be to fight the war.
THESE SEVEN DO'S are seven ways in which you
can conserve gas and not cause any loss of heat or
inconvenience to your ho\iS*eho!d.
(1) Turn off heat when
airing, rooms.
