seedsmen is the testing of seeds hj the 

 seed laboratory, with a view to helping 

 both the farmers and the seedsmen to 

 secure seeds of higher quality. The lab- 

 oratory, under the law, collects and ex- 

 amines forage-crop seeds for adulterants 

 and gives seedsmen and farmers prompt 

 information relative to samples of seed 

 which they find in the market. Propa- 

 ganda work is carried on by this lab- 

 oratory to show the value and impor- 

 tance of good seed, and visits to farm- 

 ers' institutes are made by its repre- 

 sentatives to deliver lectures which will 

 result in creating a demand for a bet- 

 ter class of seed and will teach farmers 

 to reject seeds of low vitality and those 

 containing dangerous weed seeds. 



Another important feature of labora- 

 tory work has for its object the improve- 

 ment of the methods of handling seed. 

 Special attention has been given to the 

 harvesting, curing and storing of certain 

 seed crops, particularly corn and Ken- 

 tucky bluegrass, on which subjects a 

 number of publications have already 

 been issued by the Bureau of Plant In- 

 dustry. The corn work, especially, has 

 been productive of most valuable results, 

 it having been demonstrated in a prac- 

 tical way that only seed of known high 

 vitality s>ould be planted.

A comparison of the work of the 

 seed laboratory for the last year with 

 that of previous years is interesting. 

 From July 1, 1906, to May 27 of this 

 year, this laboratory has tested seed for 

 farmers, seedsmen and others, to the 

 number of 5,822 samples. It has tested 

 1,548 samples of forage-crop seeds for 

 adulterants and 3,825 samples of cow- 

 pea seeds for vitality. It has tested 

 3,852 samples 6f corn for this year's 

 planting, 3,000 samples of vegetable 

 seeds bought in the open market, and 

 1,200 samples of seeds from custom
