Certain other weed seeds shall be considered 

 us impurities in agricultural seeds it present to 

 the extent of more than two per cent, but such 

 seeds can be sold if labeled to show the per- 

 centage of such seeds present.

 capable of germinating are also considered im- 

 purities. Seeds below standard, except in the 

 case of noxious weed seeds, can be sold if labeled 

 to show the percentage of impurities and gerniinii-

 tions of seed stocks now on hand.

 who by reason of the devastation of the 

 floods are unable to purchase seeds for 

 themselves. The purchase and distribu-

 their pea straw, they would be taking 

 one of the most practicable steps for 

 reducing the danger of pea blight. This 

 is the conclusion of L. R. Jones and 

 R. E. Vaughan, of the University of
