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 follows: "Ninety-five per cent get- Anniversary In California 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.
