We Pledge Our Besources. 



By unanimous vote the resolution 

 recommended by President White, with 

 a slight cliange, was adopted as fol- 

 lows: 



At the thirty-fifth annual convention of the 

 American Seed Trade Association it was unan- 

 imously 



RESOLVED: That the President of the 

 United States and the Secretary of AKriculture 

 be tendered the support of this association in 

 all reasonable measures designed to prosecute 

 the war witli tlie utmost vigor. And be it 



RESOLVED: That we count ourselves fortu- 

 nate to be able to do our full share in sopplyinR 

 men and money, but our greatest service may 

 well be in maintaining under extraordinary 

 strain the machinery of producing and the dis- 

 tributing of seeds without which agriculture 

 must fail. And be it further 



RESOLVED: That because we realize in some 

 measure the magnitude of the task to which our 

 country is committed, we are the more earnest 

 in pledging to it our entire resources. 



In order to do the trade justice and 

 to forestall ill-advised action in local 

 seed campaigns, the following recom- 

 mendations were presented by L. L. 

 Olds and adopted: 



RESOLVED: That a special committee be ap- 

 pointed with the following duties: First, to 

 keep in touch so far as jwssible witli the activi- 

 ties of any special war councils and to promote 

 l)y necessary publicity tlie use of tlie establislied 

 channels of seed distribution; second, to do 

 everything i)ossil)le to encourage seedsmen to 

 perfect and improve their business to more fully 

 meet the present emergency. 



The Seed Marketing Bureau. 



W. A. Wliceler, former seedsman, now 

 specialist in cliarge of seed marketing 

 investigations, Office of Markets, U. S. 

 Department of Agriculture, explained 

 the pur])ose and scope of the Bureau of 

 Markets, which is a comparatively new 

 departure in government activities. Mr. 

 Wheeler stated that it is not the pur- 

 pose of tlie department to do anything 

 to upset the present channels of legiti- 

 mate seed dealing insofar as such are 

 economical and efficient. Field studies 

 have been begun in the marketing of 

 grass and clover seeds at country ]>oints 

 and it is lioj)ed tliat these may be con- 

 tinued this summer, so that tlie results 

 may becoTue available for publication 

 in the near future. 



"It is ])laniicd to inaugurate witliin 

 the bureau," said Mr. Wlieeler, "a 

 grain, seed and hay marketing re])ort- 

 ing service for reporting to those 

 interested tlie commercial movement of 

 the various kinds of grains, seeds and 

 hay. Tlie information which would be 

 covered under tlie seeds section in this 

 service includes seed grains, jxrHss and 

 clover seeds, beans, peas and seeds of
