ANTS “’ORK FOR. FARMER Harvesting of seed on the farm; particularly of grasses. has always been a matter of hard labour, but. according to a report of a Soil Conservation officer of the United States Department of Agriculture, fnnners In Tcxns have reduced the work to the status of an ordinary chore. One farmer obtained 200 pounds of clean seed in two days from ant hills in a pasture of na- t-ive buffalo-grass. Soil Conserva- tion men, who noticed that red ants collect buffalo-grass seeds, and pllt tlicm around t-lte ant hills. l were able to tell farmers ho\v tnl get seed for planting. The seed was l swept together with a stiff broom and then run through a conImer-l cial cleaner to separate the seedt from the soil, trash. and weeci_ seeds. In two days one man col-‘ lectcd ncnrly 800 pounds of sweep-l lngs. from which the farmer ob-l tained about 200 pounds of gootil clean grass seed.
