laboratory for testing.
Formerly the laboratory has
classified seed samples into per-
centage of "strong," "weak,"
"dead," and "hard" seed.
Porter said that he had learned
that in some cases those who have
had seed tested have included the
weak seed with the strong v, hen a
label for sale of the seed was pre-
pared. This act he termed unwise,
since it gives wrong information
concerning seed quality.
"We have decided, therefore, to
report only the percentage of
strong or normal seedlings and the
hard seeds, when such occur,"
Porter declared. "It is permissi~ble
under tile Iowa law to include hard
seeds on the la'bel with the normal
seedlings. From the standpoint
of crop production, only the strong
or normal seedlings and the hard
seeds are of value.
"The value of hard seed varies
with the crop. For example, hard
seeds in alfalfa, peas, beans and
most varieties of soybeans are equal
to normal seedlings in plant pro-
during power, since they germinate
soon enough after planting to con-
tribute to the stand. Hard seeds in
red clover, alsike clover and sweet
clover germinate from 5 to 50 per
cent the year they are planted,
sweet clover hard seeds usually
contributing less than the other two
clovers."
|)ayluents to cooperating corn
producers will be between 14 and
15 cents per hushel on the normal
yield of his corn acreage allotment.
This is ma(le up of a conservation
payment of ,q cents and a price ad-
justment payment of 5 to 6 cents
pet" bushel. The actual amounts of
the price-adjustnlent payments can-
not be deternltned until after Jan.
31. 1939, according to the Farm
Act of 193S.
l'aynlents to wheat farmers who
plant within their acreag0 allot-
ments in 193'a will amount to be-
tween 27 and 29 cents per bushel
on the normal yield, compared with
12 cents per bushel payments under
the 1938 program. The payments
include both conservation payments
of 17 cents per bushel and price-
adjustment payment of l0 to 12
cents.
The basis for the price-adjust-
ment payments of the $212,000,000
made available under the Price Ad-
justment Act of 19~8 to the produc-
crs of corn, wheat and cotton who
plant within the acreage allotments
in 1939. These price-adJustmer~t
payments are in addition to the
onscrvation payments.
A totai of 483 corn loans cover-
ing 401,954 ,bushels of corn and
amounting to $229,123.77 were re-
I ported by R. B. Booth, IAnn County
I Corn Loan Supervisor at the end of
' last week.
The method used for reportingI
seed tests in the future will he as Former Residents Have 50th

ruination, including 15 per cent
hard seed." This means 80 per i Mrs. Edwin Harris received a let-
cent normal or strong seedlings and i ter this week telling of the fiftieth
5 per cent weak and dead seeds, wedding anniversary celebrated by
Mr. Porter reminds farmers that
it is unlawful to advertise, offer or
expose for sale any seed in Iowa
unless it is properly labeled.
l,'armers who wish to advertise
seed should first have it tested.
Samples should ,be sent in early to
avoid the rush and resultant delay
each March and April.
