CP Wirephoto Seeding Is First Thought Of Simcoe Farmers In April By STEWART PAGE Agricultural Representative North Simcoe Now that April is here it is cartainly time to be thinking about seeding getting the seed rain cleaned ready for sow fng or selecting and buying such varieties as we have to buy this yesr while there still plenty of the best to choose from It is also time to check over the seed and fertilizer drill to be sure that everything is in working order so that there will be no delay once the land is ready Seeding is by no means as long job today as it was three or four decades ago when most farmers were dependent on horsepower with horses seed In the spring grain alone often took three or four weeks to complete whereas today with adequate tractor power and equipment the same acreage can be sown in three or four days Perhaps should say three or four days and nights as it is fairly common practice on many farms to keep the tractors going hall the night when the weather is just right for seeding Regardlessgaf whether seeding is early or late good seed is first requirement Good seed should be of good size large and plump free from wood seeds small shrunken grain and of course be of the var icty best suited for the land on which it is to be grown In ad dition it is of course most im nating body appears to be good and logical starting paint in the committees

75 per cent are oi doubt tui quality CONTROL DISEASE itiost seed grain offered for sale is or should on treated for controls of seed borne diseases it is also good practice to treat homegrown seed likewise Mercury compounds are most commonly used for this pur pose but since mercury com pounds are highly poisonous two precautions are must First never inhale mercury dust when treating the seed Use dust filter or mask Sec ond never feed treated grain to livestock See Bulletin 524 Common Grain Smuts and Their Control for detailed re commendations With the development of new and improved varieties oi grains grasses and clovers every few years and new corn hybrids by the dozen the im portance of selecting the best variety for the home farm is more important than over There are sevcral good varie ties oi each crop and each var iety has its own adaptability 0f the out varieties the Gar ry oat is one of the best and most available this year The Rodney is an excellent feed eat and while little later than the Gary and not quite so strong in the straw does quite well on some farms The new Russell oat is quite promising but is in limited supply and for this year on farms where oats are grown for food only would suggest trying few acres only on trial basis of the barley varieties York and Brent are most popular at the moment within fairly good su ply of seed available Harts arge tworowed barley intro duced low years ago is also good yielding feed barley on some farms AI SEED FAIR Some excellent seed oats and barley of varieties we have Just mentioned were shown at the
