Banks, railroads, creameries and Ira
plement companies of Omaha and the
newspapers of Um state hav rallied to
the support of tha publlcitr bureau of
th Omaha Commercial dub la Its cam
paign for the testing of seed corn by
farmers.
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.
Manager Karrtngton will send out MM
posters, with' the request that they be
1 oted In conspicuous place
The Ala ml to. Fairmont. 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

for a school of Instruction which the
Oreet Western has established at the
Chicago headquarters.
The Bureau of Hafety ef tha Great
