Sheehan, field agyrono- mist of the university extension division, reports that in Jerome and Cassia counties there is a good supply of certified Dicklow wheat seed, which is above 99 per cent pure. This is the var- iety of spring wheat recommend- ed by the extension division for the irrigated sections of south- ern Idaho. A carload of this seed is to be shipped to Ellen- sburg, Wash. Also, negotations are under way to place a carload in the irrigated section neaz Bend, Ore. Several counties in Utah are after a car or more. Arrangements soon will be made for shipment of a carload, to be divided among farmers of Pay- ette and Washington counties. More Seed Is Condemned Laboratory analysis in the office of the state seed commis- sioner, from Jan. 1, 1918, to Jan. 1, 1919, shows that 46.5 per cent of the alfalfa, 29.5 per cent of the red clover, 44.5 per cent of the white clover and 24.5 per cent of the alsike clover samples submitted for test were condem- ned. Of these condemned sam- ples, 90 per cent were rejected because of the presence of dodd- er. B. F. Sheehan, field agrono- mist of the university extension division, who is also state seed commissioner, says dodder is “the worst weed that can get in- to alfalfa and clover fields.” In 1916, only 21.8 per cent of the alfalfa samples were condemned. To prevent the grades of Idaho seed from deteriorating, Mr. Sheehan urges that farmers send in their seed for test. Writing Pamphlet On Thistle | Paul Wenger, formerly assis- tant agronomist of the Univer- sity extension division, is writ- | hitch, for use in farm plowing, the boys’ and girls’ club work, and 65 per cent know of the home demonstration work, and practically all who know of the| work approve it, according to re- ports made to the United States department of agriculture by an investigator who recently travel- led through the state, assisting in a survey which the depart- ment of agriculture. was making in many states. These figures were quoted to Director L. W. Fluharty of the Idaho extension division while he was on a recent trip east. 800 Animals Vaccinated About 800 head of cattle have been vaccinated in 60 days in Washington county, most of ‘hem under the direction of the farm bureau community com- mitteemen. Orchard Infection Past Boise and Payette valley apple orchards show no further signs of infection, and conditions in- dicate that the rotting and dying of trees, which were noticed in 1917, resulted from an epidemic of blight that prevailed in the season of 1915 or of 1916, says a report by E. R. Bennett, field horticulturist of the University of Idaho extension division. Mr. Bennett based this report on in- vestigations made in company with Lee M. Hutchins of the United States department of agriculture. They visited or- chards on the Boise bench and in the Emmett, Payette, New Ply- mouth, Fruitland, Parma and Nampa districts. This work was a continuation of the invest- igations of the orchard work that was made in 1917. 345 See Multiple Hitch Demonstrations of a multiple given at the Northwest Live- stock show, in Lewiston, under auspices of the Nez Perce county farm bureau, were witnessed by ORPHEUM THEATRE Saturday, December 13 [vaensesaendUUOAEGSHVORETQT UTS UERULSENOD TE TUOTAULERCGEOUUU UALR AU = * | 345 farmers.
