This week I will give the exact method of treatment in order that those farmers wishing to go ahead with the seed treatment themselves will be able to do so. At the same time those desiring wrill be able to get the assistance of the county agent by calling on him. The method of treatment is as fol lows: One pint of Formaldehyde to ten gallons of water. Use one quart of the mixture to each bushel of oata. Hesp the grain in a pile, after it has been sprinkled with the solution cover with hags, bagging or some similar material and »llow to stand from one to one and a half hours; then remove the cover and pull down the pile of seed and they may be planted immedi ately or some time later. The treatment if used will be the means of # great saving to farmers. The cost is less than one cent per (fairing PLANT NOW!
