: (A Resident” Set Right. In reply to “A Resident” in the Ligonier Banner, I have to say that I fees myself partly responsible for the edi torial in the News-Sentinel of which “A Resident” takes aversion. - . “I desire to say first that our poetical censor seems to be an adept of misconstruction. While “A Reésident” seems not tc know of any vacancies on farms hereabouts that fact nevertheless remains... . - : While it is a truth that people are¢ leaving the farms for the cities I dic not feel that I was casting any sulr: on .Wawaka or immediate vicinity a: this is a general condition all over the country. “A Resident” undoubtedly knows that statistics bear‘me out it the above statement. . g - Beg leave to differ with “A Resi: dent” in saying that farms are. well kept—unpainted buildings, run dowr: fences, grown up fencerows etc., may be “A Residents’” idea of a “well kep! farm” but that is surely not ours However, this is no discredit to th« farmer who is handicapped God knows: today as never before by lack of labor and ready cash. ' Regardless of the grouch ‘that mjy anonymous critic seems to have, 1 have I have always been, am stﬁill anc wil lecontinue to be a booster for Wawaka and community. | Augusta C. Dowell.

Pointers On Seed Buying. Clover seed-buying time is now here. The man who buys seed 'care-l‘ fully wil have a big advantage over the farmer who does not investigate before he purchases. : : The following hints for purchasing good seed were supplied by A. Aj Hansen of the Purdue University Agricultural extension staff. Cut this out and use as-a guide when yeu buy seed this year. @ ' ; 1. Insist on the presence of the seeq law tag, which will give full information on the following points. = " 2. Do not buy clover seed the origin of which. is marked “unknown” o 1 from scuthern Europe. The crop fron, such seed may winter-Kill under In diana conditions. j : -

3. Do not buy seed containing a single dodder, Canada thistle quack grass or wild garlic seéd if you do not have these weeds on your farm. 4. Try to secure clover, alfalfa and grass seed containing less than 300 noxious weed seeds per pound. 5. Try to secure clover and alfalfa seed that germinates 90 per cent o 1 better. Hard seeds(marked on the tag” cut down the germination and -are objectionable in clover but not in alfalfa when a permancnt stand is de sired. Hard seeds, however, ‘are not nearly as objectionable as weed seeds 6. Be sure that the date of the ger, ‘mination test as stated on the label is

not over a year ago. 5 1. Figure out the content of pure. live seed and let this be your basis on which to purchase, rather than the price per bushel, ' : Sees Summer: Birds.
