LAC NATURE (Primary Grades) Lac is a dark-red resin produc- ed by action o1 an insect on the say of certain trees in N. l. India. 1t is so named because of the in- finite number of ' ‘ requir- ed for its production. Twigs cov- ered with this substance from stick-lac; from these tho resin is removed by washing, and melt- ed to form mellac, which is used in making varnishes and is the principal ingredient of sealing- wax. Shellac is exported chief- ly from Bengal. From lac a soar- let dye is also obtained. Lac or, Lakii, in India, a hundred thou- sand. Pure gold loses nothing in the testing for alloys; the diamond shines all the more closely for being rid of the rough surface which hid its light.

THE PRODUCTION OF SWEDE TURNIP SEED Swedes are biennial in habit, which means that in the first year mother roots or seed roots are grown, stored over winter and in the second year are set out to produce seed. Variety to Grow. Climatic adaptation, resistance to disease and purpose of the crops are im- portant in selecting a particular variety to be grown for seed. In club-root infested areas, the Wil- helmsburger or Banghoim var- leties oi swedes are widely grown. In areas where this disease is not prevalent, varieties such as Dit- mars, Hall's West-bury, Acadia, or Lssurentlan have been grown with success. The latter variety is particularly well ladapted for table purposes. Growers who wish to produce seed for their own me or for com- mercial purposes would be well advised to secure registered or certified seed of approved types from which to grow and select seed roots for seed production the following year. Soil. Seed roots. which may be either nature or inmtature roots. may be grown successfully on al- most any kind o! soil that is deep. fertile and well drained and which is in good physical condition. A clay loam is preferable for a good crop of swedes. PREPARATION ~o|= tmo rdn sesame anywhere Roots are usually growh in crop rotations following sod. ‘Under these conditions the sod should be ploughed mallow in the late summer. cultivated during the fail and ribbed up or re ploughed fairly deep late in the fall. In the spring the land must be well cultivated or dished, drag narrowed. rolled and set up in ridges. 's'\i"-‘n" s WAIIUIGIUN.
