Where to Get Seed. 



This Station cannot offer seed either for sale or distribu- 

 tion. Our seeds for variety tests are purchased in small quan- 

 tity from the grower, originator, or seed merchant, thus keep- 

 ing the variety purer than if we saved our own mixed seed. 

 Our stock was obtained originally from the following parties : 



Allen Improved L. S. and Allen Hybrid L. S., from J. B. 

 Allen, Port Gibson, Miss. 



Hutchinson, from J. N. Hutchinson, Salem, Ala. 



Duncan, Bates, Griffin, Ilunnicutt, Hawkins, and Dickson, 

 from Mark W. Johnson Seed Co., Atlanta, Ga. 



Peerless and Peterkin, from H. P. Jones, Herndon, Ga. 



Texas Oak, from M. G. Smith, Lightfoot, Ga. 



Tyler, from K. J. Tyler, Aiken, S. C. 



Deering Small Seed was donated by Maj. I. F. Culver, 

 Commissioner of Agriculture, Montgomery, Ala. 



Seed from Different Latitudes. 



In the early spring of 1896 seed of the variety King was 

 bought from J. S. Blalock, Goldville, S. C, and planted the 

 same year on the Station farm. Small quantities were also 

 sent to the Experiment Station at Stillwater, Oklahoma, to 

 Abbeville, in the southern part of Alabama, and to Dillburg, 

 in the central or western part of this State. The seeds were 

 planted in those localities in 1 896, and after that crop was 

 ginned some of the resulting seed were sent back to Auburn.
