MAKE BIG PLANTINGS
OF CEKT1F1ED SEEDS
Improved Varieties Cover Thousands j
of Acres in State Tliis Year.
| Pedigreed seed from improved farm'
crops -varu-ties was sown on thousands
of iacres of Michigan farm land this'
year, according to a report just issued
.by H. C. Rather, secretary of the;
Michigan Crop Improvement associ..-:
tion and extension specialist at M. A. i
' college. ;'
j The certified seed, which, is giowu.
by members of the crop improvement
.association! from varieties developed
by  the   M. A. C. experiment  station,
J consistently outfields strains ordinal-*
] iiy planted in the state, and result ii.
increased piroduc.tion of better qualit:/
crops. As a result, the effect of the
large plantings this season is expected to he of marked importance. :
. pMany of the varieties included in
the list of Michigan, certified   grains.
..-have won fame throughout, the..entire*
country by their winnings at national
shows and exhibits. Rosen rye, first
released from the M. A. C. station in
1912, is .probably the best known of
these purebred strains, while Re;!
Rock wheat, Worthy and Wolverin*.
oats, Robust beans, and corn varietie..
are rapidly winning a national reputation for Michigan growlers.
The average yield from Wolverine
and Worthy oats grown in the statf?
in 1922 was more than- 50 bushels tj
the acre, according to Bather's figures,
an increasei of .nearly 20 bushels ove*
the state average. Many grower.-:- uf
Robust beans increased tlheir pi*oiU.-
by 10 to 50 dollars, per acre because of
the added productivity of this variety
during the past season.
During* the planting season ju-t
clo'sed, more than 23,000 bnsh.l-* o
certified seed of the improved oats \a-
rieties have been sown; enough neti-
fied Rojbust beans were put out to
plant 12.000 acres, and enough certified seed corn for 10.000 awes—an indication of the rn.pidly i'ncpi'ensing u:-e
being made by Michigan- farmers oc
the pedigreed seed stocks. These
plantings are said to be *-.roY"ii._ a
potent influence for more profitable
crop production in the state.

Tho Comity Board of Auditors
Some people imagine the county
board of auditors a more or less use
less expense chiefly because few realize just what their duties are ai-ti
how they go about it to earn thi
small stipend each receives for
guarding the exchequer of the county.
The board should have *a publicii *
department to recount through i.Ik-
press the many instances wherein
they save t)h|e taxpayers considerable
sums during the ojurse of a year.
An instance was brought to our at1
tention not long ago ^whereby the
board saved a neat amount by quietly
investiigating one bill, handed in, to
be paid by tlie county. It amounted
,to more th-a-n a hundred dollars, contracted for the care of a woman in
Ann Arbor wiho not only owned a
'home worth eight to' ten thousand
dollars, but other property as: we!'.
I,t is needless to add that thc bil
was paid by the woman and not by
the county.
This is just one of many like 'actions, fakenj by the members of the
.board., in.., safeguarding ;j.y.o-u*** *' frs
terests and mine, and we feel they
should have due credit for their
watchfulness.

far the meeting the pastor was n:.t
aware of the function which is to be
given on, Friday evening by ih'
Eastern Star chapter at the home o!'
Mr. and Mrs. Op. C. Wheeler. In f*u-t
the pastor must confess that he had
overlooked the notice of the lav*.* i
fete whioh appeared in The Observer"
a week ago. We aire very glad to
cancel our meeting and we urge all
our people to -patronize the la.wn fe'e
at the home of Brother and Sistei
Wheeler. Therefore Methodist folk
don't come to the par.--ona.ge on. Frida ■

Tiliere is a word of warning each
Methodist should heed at this tempting time of the year. It is this. ''Remember the Sa.bbath Day to Ke.rp it
Holy.*' He tliat breaks this commandment and teaches men to break it
shalil be called least in the kingdom
of Heaven. But he tliat will keeo
this commandment a.nd will teach
men so will he be called great in the
Kingdom of heaven. If you want a
holliday take it out of your tiro.s,
don'.t use the Lord's Day. "Seek ve
first* the Kingdom of Heaven and ii.-
righteotisness and all these othe'
things shall be added unto, you."
Methodists have always stood *.-r
the best tilings in tlie; community and
let us not fail in hearty support of
flie community ohautauqua now.

Your Child Needs
"It is a mistake to train young people in ?I1 line?
of knowledge and give them full college equipment for undertaking the big tasks of life, without
making* sure also that the fundamental principles
of right or wrong, as taught in the Bible, have become a part of their equipment. There is a control
o'f forces and motives essential to the management
of vast affairs which comes only through an educated conscience."   James J. Hill.
