TJEGIKG PAPERS TO BOOST

Declare for Importance of
Teat Before I'lantlng.
The Commercial club" campaign to raise
the standard of se'd corn In going ovr-r
the state with an Imprtus that encourages
the men who started It.'
Although the ciill wa only srnt out
through The Hoe Srttuiday and Sunday,
half a doaen farmers responded by Monday
morning and more are expected on every
train.
The club' ha had cards printed and sent
broadcast over the slate to be posted read
ing: 'Test Vour Reed Corn."
Another part of thin campaign Is this
letter sent out to newspapers all over the
state by thfi Commercial club:
Will you join In a campaign to Increase
the yleitf of corn In Nebraska two bushels
per acre 13.000.i(J bushels tills year-by giv
ing the iuetlon of testing seed the Imme
diate attention It demands?
Apparently It Is going to tako tho com
blnwi eftoriH of every new Kpaper, banking
house. Implement dealer and C'"'n buyer
in the slate to get ail the t.-i;nera to lest
their seed Corn this year. Uiiiprs such a
campaign Is started, .tho corn will not be
'1 his means ail enormous Iofs. While Ne
braska Is tietu-r off than Jowa, when It
comes to the condition of seed coin this
year, K shrank a cannot uil'ord to lose the
amount vhloft must bo a lota unless corn
la lest-d beiora plantin;;.
Recent tests show only six ears In twelve
produce good strong roots; two eats in
twelve wui not grow at all; others pro
duce weak root systems which will give
the farmer barren stalks.
Anyway It can be figured the planting
of untested teed means an enormous ks
the same as reducing the acreage of the
mate l,o;i,000 notes or failure to produce
27,uoo,000 more hushols of corn.
Wc have carefully figured out what each
county Is going to lose and enclose you a
table enowing tho minimum financial I mi
whlrh will lesult from planting untesied
seed. Note tho loss to your own county.
You want the yield to be as large as yoi
slhle. Publish tho facts you see In this
table. .
There Is only time In the next thirty
days to get the farmers Interested unl
IM them to test their seed corn. We nefd
your help and we will furnish you any mi
eriHl you ivanti We are go.ng to test sam
ples of corn from all parts of tho fctate
and will report to you the results. Get
some samples of the seed your farmers
are going to plant and test It or send some
sample eara to us , and we will make the
test for ypu. ,
This Is an opportunity to do some per
sonal work as well as urging In your paper
the testing of seed corn. Let us have the
benefit of your editorial and personal opin
ion and give us any suggestions as to how
the campaign, can be made more effective.
Regent Coupoland of the University of
Nebraska, who was in Omaha Monday,
has Interested himself tn the matter and
ays he finds the conditions in Nebraska
much more serloua than he supposed. He
heartily endorses the campaign for its Im
provement. Grain Dealers for It.
"It Is most Imperative that tho farmers
of Nebraska and Iowa test their seed corn
this year to be certain it will grow," said
E. P. Peck, president of the Omaha drain
exchange. "It Is also very important to
got seed corn adapted to the soil In which
it is planted. The work being done by the
colleges of Iowa In the matter of testing
seed corn Is of great value to the state,
and I am glad to see the Commercial club
of Omaha taking up the task of testing
for the farmers. If good seed corn is not
provided. It will cost the state a big Sum
of money. It Is a great work of educa
tion." E. - S. Westbrooke, - treasurer of the
Transmlsslsslppl Grain company, has been
posting himself on the matter of seed corn
testing for the benefit of his patrons. He
has some communications as to the result
of the experiments In Iowa which show
that at the L)es Moines short corn course
40 per cent of the corn tested would not
grow. ' ' -
C. E.'' Twamloy, official tester for Iowa,
reports that not over 40 per cent of the
corn of Iowa will germinate. A call was
made for sample ten ears and of those sent
in not a single sample was perfect The
experiment showed that but from four to
Ix of the ten eara should be planted.

CUTE OLD DAN BUTLER HAS
LAUGH ON PROCESS SERVER
Cltr Clerk, When Called Ont
Bed Sunday at lZilISi A. M.,
Jast Times 'Em.
of
Dan Butler has the laugh on a process
server.
Since a reorganlratlon of the Independent
Telephone company of Omaha seems pos
sible, the local managers are trying to
gather in every possible asset to which
they have any sort of claim. The latest is
a suit against the city of Omaha for pos
session of a building at the city asphalt
plant for which the city engineer's depart
ment holds a lease.
The property In question la owned by
Mary F. Bourke and the lease to the city
was made by her attorney, D. W. Mer
row. It covers ground 100x300 feet In ex
tent and on it stands the corrugated Iron
bulldlngjn question. The city engineer has
had possesvlon since January 22 and pro
poses to hold the building unless the court
orders tho place turned over to the tele
phone people. The lutter claim to hold a
lease running to March of this year.
In their effort to. oust the city the tele
phone managers have won tho undying
nmlty of City Clerk Butler. While he was
cozily Bleeping Saturday night he was
called to the telephone about midnight and
utUcd to come down town to accept ser
vice of an Important paper, liutler refused
and went back to, bed. Soon after a hack

drove up to his house and he was called
to the door la his stop-short clothes and
a man shoved a paper Into his hand before
he could back up. But Butler was wise.
He called central and asked her to make a
note of the time of the call, at the aarria
time marking on the paper, "Received at
12:32 Sunday morning;."
"They have got up early In the morning
to push me In over my head," says the
mild ,mannered city clerk.
