Makes It Plain Where the Weed Crop
Comes From.
The Connecticut experiment station
Is doing a great work in testing clover
seed. It obtained fifty-one samples of
the seed just ns it la sold by Connecti
cut seed dealers. These samples were
tested for weed seeds and also to see
whut per cent of the clover seed would
sprout. The result of the test shows j
that only oue-slxth of the seed as sold
was fit to use. Three samples were :
adulterated with a worthless plant,
and forty-one had more or less dodder,
the most dangerous weed or parasite ;
which can get Into the crop. i
Few days pass without a complaint
from some one who finds the dodder in
his clover. Samples are often sent in
showing tbe clover plants strangled by
a JM-Ht which twines around them and
sucks their life away. The cut shows
a mild form of the affliction. Think of
putting the seeds of this curse Into the
ground when you seed your clover
Yet that is Just what is being done
when we buy ordinary clover s?d.

clover seed 0,-1 JI seeds of the dodders

The people of Denmark lire fast re
claiming their waste land by the labor
of convicts. In Jutland there Is n
large undeveloped territory of almost
arreu waste covered wllh a tough.

sets the prisoners at work breaking up
the tough surface and pulling It into
shape for fanning. Kven then rhc land
Is at first of very low grade, and It Is
given away to settlers who care to
