Cudahy’s BAD SEED THREATENS CROP perfect Corn Used for Planting May Cost Farmers Millions. GERMINATION TEST IS URGED Wet Weather, Followed by Cold, Im- patrs Vitality of Graln—Ilowa Ex- periments Show Grave Condix tions in im That State. T Ly Hedvy loss from imperfeet seed threatens the next Nebraska corn crop. This loss is varlously estimated from $10,000,000 to $15.- 000,000. Grain men and agriculturists are generally aware of the situation and urge that the farmers make tests of thelr seed and take speclal precaution that the flelds shall be plnted with fertile and productive grain. The immediate source of danger to| the crop lies in the effect that the weather conditions have had upon the grain of the state from which the seed for the spring planting will be chosen. The presence of much molsture through a wet fall and hard winter freeses is belleved to have rendered sterlle & percentage of the grain, making it tdtally unfit for plan pur. poses, or at least so weakening it that the plants reproduced will prove unproductive. The remedy lies In germination tests of each ear to be used for seed. The seed growers of the state are now making, or have completed, tests by which the sterile sraln is ellminated. That but a small per- centage of the state's grain Is produced from the stocks of the seed growers signi- fies the importance of this same work by the farmer who grows his own seed. Big Loss s Possible, It s estimated that the loss to the state from bad seed could easlly reach $15,000,000 on the year's crop., This figure is based on the presumption gnat one ear out of every six planted should be bad. It is sald that some of the tests have shown that in many localities the percentage of bad seed i even higher. Nebraska's corn acreage for the last.year was 6,500,000 If one-sixth of this land should be rendered inefficient and practically idle by planting with im- | perfect seed the inevitable result would be loss of the use .of mote than a milllon acred. The lpss, however, would not end there. The cultivation of the fields would cover' altke the fertlle and the hills and' it would' be wasted then by the same ratio In Which the crop failed. Students of the situation attribute the conditions existing to both bad weather, which directly affected the year's crop, and a degeneracy in some of the grain itself While much of the Nebraska corn has been improved in quality by breeding in the last few years, many farmers are still THE B RESLIN Absolutely Fireproof BROADWAY, CORNER OF 20th STREET Most convenient hotel to all Subways and Depots, g Rooms $1.5 and upwards with use of baths, Rooms $2.50 per day nnd with private bath.

Better housing of the grain is urged by the grain dealers of Omaha. The loss to the farmers through exposure to the weather alone ran into millions on the 1509 crop. “The loss to Nebraska corn through the lack of proper facilities for housing and protecting the crop after it was matured probably averaged not less than 7 or 8 cents a bushel for the whole state, de- clared an officer of the Omaha Grain ex- change, i Tests of the corn of the state of Iowa have just been completed at Ames Agri- cultural colege with the result that Prof. P. G. Hbiden has declared that the seed is the worst that the state has ever had. The results of the lowa test are shown In tabular form: ——Percentages— Section of State, Northern North cen South Central Southern ... The -ayerage of Iowa corn is much below that shown in the table, as the seed tested was from the best in each locality. It is assumed that if these con- ditions exist in .lowa they are duplicated iIn some degree In eastern Nebraska at least.

The law is specific lnn this subject. and very stringent Nobody can be removed from this city or state, legally, without such a permit.
