SALE OF SEED GRAIN. 



The Dominion Cerealist will be glad to furnish information, as far as possible, 

 to intending piirchasers of seed grain, as to the nearest source of supply for good seed. 

 Seedsmen and farmers in any part of Canada having seed grain for sale are advised 

 to send their names, with statements as to quantities, etc., and samples of the seed 

 offered, to the Dominion Cerealist. 



Most of the branch Experimental Farms have seed grain for sale, usually in 

 limited quantity. There is also frequently a small surplus of seed at Ottawa after the 

 free distribution has been finished, which is available for salfe. As a rule not more 

 than two bushels of any variety can be sold from the Central Farm to one purchaser.
