This stock is in excellent shape for immediate planting.

stated rather fully, as the seed trade 

 associations should be well advised of 

 the attitude of mind of such an impor- 

 tant committee as the legislative com- 

 mittee of the analysts' association. 

 These recommendations were as fol- 

 lows: 



(a) A fedcriil bill to authorize the imrchnsc 

 of samples of vegetiible seeds in open market 

 and, if found of improper <piality, to publish the 

 names and addresses of the vendors. 



(b) A uniform state vegetable seed bill, au- 

 thorizing the state officer to test samples of 

 vegetable seeds and publish the results if found 

 to be of improper qaality, toRetber with the 

 names and addresses of the vendors. 



(c) To modify the uniform state seed bill 

 regulatin); agricultural seeds to inelude a new 

 section authorizing tlie administrative officer to 

 secure an injunction against a seedsman from 

 selling seeds which are contrary to the pro 

 visions of the seed Inix. This section is identical 

 in words with a similar provision in the rcnnsyl- 

 vania seed law enacted in the year l»:il. 



It will be observed that the above 

 recommendations are almost identically 

 the policies of the seed trade associa- 

 tions, as developed by the votes of the 

 conventions and by the resolutions of 

 the executive officers of the association. 

 The second suggestion has not been 

 formally acted ujion by convention of 

 the American Seed Trade Association, 

 although the matter has been discussed 

 rather fully l)y counsel in the annual re- 

 ports for the last two or three years, 

 and the legislative committee of the 

 association has carefully considered the 

 matter. As a result of a conference be- 

 tween tlie officers of our associations, 

 the chairman of the legislative commit- 

 tee of the seed analysts' associ;ition, 

 and the botanist of the T'nited States 

 Department of Agriculture, November 

 10, 1921, a long step was taken towiird 

 the elimination of the numerous ol)jec- 

 tionable features of state vegetable seed 

 legislation, the agreement of these con- 

 ferees being practically the same as 

 stated in j)aragraph b above. Inasmuch 

 as the association at its annual conven- 

 tion in 1920 voted that authority be 

 given to the Secretary of Agriculture 

 of the United States to jmrcliase sam- 

 ples of vegetable seeds and publish the 

 names of the sellers of seeds of poor 

 quality, it is felt that the results of the 

 Washington conference of November 10 

 may well be approved by this conven- 

 tion, and such action will undoubtedly 

 be suggested by the legislative commit- 

 tee of your association at this meeting. 



Seizure of Seeds. 



There lias been a long and serious con- 

 flict between the analysts' association, 

 or some members of that association, 

 and the legislative committees of the

the seizure of seeds, as to whieh it is 

 elainied there has been a violation of 

 the seed law. A well started attempt 

 has been made in behalf of this radical 

 ]>unitive provision of the seed law, but 

 the action of the seed analysts' associa- 

 ti(Vi, especially after the seedsmen's side 

 had been presented by the representa- 

 tive of our association, apparently has 

 disposed of this difficult question in so 

 far as the associations are officially con- 



cerned. The cliairman- takes pleasure in 

 reporting that the analysts' convention 

 at Toronto approached this, as well as 

 other difficult (|uestion on which there 

 were some serious conflicts, in a broad- 

 minded and fair manner. 



The an.'ilysts' convention was much 

 disi>osed to approve of the action taken 

 at the Copenhagen convention, which 

 was an international conference of 

 official seed analysts in July. 1921. Our
