Tha Clearing House association has ap pointed Secretary W. B. llughea and the members of the. executive commutes to co-operata with tha publicity bureau. Through the mora loan "S banks In tha state tha association will call attention to tha critical situation aa regards aead com. It will send to tha banks pam phlets stating the situation, and posters urging tha testing of. seed and bearing instructions for noma testing. The Northwestern, Union Pacific Rock Island. Burlington and Mlasourl Pacific will send posters to all their station aicents in the stats with instructions to pout them conspicuously. ' Tha John Deere Plow company., the Psrlln Orendortt Co., and the Unlger Implement company will wage a state vide campaign through tha dealers who handle their goods. The Deere company Is now sending out circulars by every me!!, urging tha testing of seed corn.

David Cole and the Fanners' Ce-Operstlre creameries will work through their country stations. One hundred editors have assured the publicity bureau that they will urge seed rem testing through their papers. Only two haye declined, and they on the ground of lack of space. Prof. C. W. Pugsley or the agricultural extension department of the University of Nebraska, who baa now made tests in thirty counties, says the seed corn situation is area worse than at first an ticipated. . He has found that the pro portion of corn In these counties that will germinate strongly runs from M to M per cent and onfy In rare Instances has he found com that will test M per cent. "Unless some action la taken,' said Prof. . Pugsley, "Nebraska will face a aerloas loss In Its corn crop. This, to a great extent, can be avoided. If the farmers will test their com, but the great trouble .will be In getting them to realise the exact situation. "Last rear the corn crop amounted lo something over tU.OK.eN, A H per cent loss this year would mean an im mense deficit. But nnlesa the proper pre rautlona are taken, the yield will not be mere than one-half the normal crop," Merit System Tried ' , by Great Western Chicago Oreet Western men are now all wearing buttons on which are the words, "Caution, Guard, Welch.- The wearing of these buttons means that the employes, regardless of rank have en rolled themselves In the company's Bureau of Safety, which is another name for a school of Instruction which the Oreet Western has established at the Chicago headquarters.
