This announcement Is made by the Minnesota station to correct an impression that has gone abroad In some quarters that the seed Is already being distributed. There is available for teed next year only 125 bushels of this new and the experiment station staff j believes that the best results will be 'obtained If this seed Is reserved and n again grown on the experiment farms in 192S, in order to make sure of the preservation of the seed stock and of the production of a sufii-- i cient quantity of genuine Marquillo wheat to insure wide distribution in the spring of 1929. There is in the state no genuine stock of this variety. Marquillo wheat, y. recognized by experiment station except that la possession of the experiment station. The variety i? the result of a cross, made at University farm, between Marquis, the standard bread wheat of the Northwest, and Iumillo, a dnr-nwheat. It is highly and of good milling quality. The aim Is to get it into the hands of careful farmers in 1329 to be increased for seed purposes so that the seed may be certified and given wide om-cial- s, m rust-resista- nt Machinery Will Reduce Expense of Farm Labor The fanner who struggles along with poor seed, poor ground and poor equipment Is paying for good seed, fertilizer, and good equipment whether he owns them or not. He pays because he cannot compete on even ground with the progressive farmer who uses all the mean? at his command for increasing his yield and lowering his labor costs by using me- chanical helpers. The price he pays i is a smaller income and denial of the things an increased income would boy. Eetter farm life Is the goal of all who are engaged in or truly Inter-- 1 ested in agriculture; This goal ha? been reached by many, others are rapidly achieving it, while far too many think that the future holds nothing in store for them, and use the means within their grasp; Every one will agree that the progress in the development and use of agriculture has been doe In large measure to the develop-men- t and use of machinery. The very tact that man has become a director of power instead of a source of power ha? an uplifting effect on his nature. A real desire for better living is the first essential in securing It. Having this desire, the next thing is to obtain an income large enough to provide IL It Is here that proper equipment plays Its part by reducing the cost of producing farm products and by increasing tbe amount that the individual worker produces. rust-resista- nt va-jrie- ty, sta-jtio- Blue Grass Pasture Is Equal to Cropped Land Usually we consider pasture as of low value; as, too often, it really Is. Quite recently, however. Prof. J. W. White of Pennsylvania State college has made an exhaustive analysis of returns from pasture compared with those cropped in a formal rotation. He finds that a good bine grass pasture, well fertilized, gives as large a return in term? of animal nutrients as corresponding land cropped in rotation. He also finds that the total production of protein is greater on the pasture, than In the rotation. He estimates that the total cost of these nutrients will be very much less, unand well managed der a well-fertiliz- ed Pick a LUSTY BULL For Profit They are builders qf Beef R ' S.

This argument, Is not intended to diminish attention to better crop fanning, but rather to urge that the pasture begiT- en a place in the plan and that the pasture grasses and clovers be ao fed that they can give for themselves the best possible accounting. At present prices of animal crops, and of commercial plant foods, much more may be done with our pastures than is generally recognized.
