It at home for seed. Good seed will have high 

 value. 



Send us samples of seed which you think to 

 purchase. Our reports may aid you to make an 

 early selection of the very best seed for 

 your neighborhood. This laboratory makes seed 

 analyses free of charge and can help you select 

 your stock of sowing seed. 



We Intend to keep you in touch with the dif- 

 ferent points of value that we may learn from 

 time to time. At present we have letters from 

 a number of different growers who have been 

 co-operating with this department In the raising 

 of North Dakota wilt-resistant flax Nos. 73, 52 

 and 22, stating that they would like to dispose 

 of some of it this fall. If you would like to get 

 a small quantity of this seed started In your 

 neighborhood with some good farmers, let us 

 know, and we will put you in touch with the 

 parties having a desire to sell this fall. 



This seed has made a very fine record, espe- 

 cially on old land. In many cases where ordinary 

 flax died out from wilt, this flax has thrived 

 and produced a full crop. 



GROWTH OF rJANNING.

 lishments in 1909, an increase of nine-
