<jiiirements. The advantajje of the use 

 of superior seed can only become avail- 

 able to planters through the growing 

 of strains which are uniformly of the 

 exact varietal character wanted. 



The immense quantity of seed nec- 

 essary to supply the ever-increasing de- 

 mand makes it practically impossible 

 for the seedsman to grow on his own 

 farm all of the seed he handles, and 

 he is obliged to have the major por- 

 tion of it grown for him by others. 



Present Conditions and Practices. 



Nearly all of the seed of sweet coni. 

 garden peas, and beans used in Amer- 

 ica is grown under contract between 

 farmers and seedsmen. The contract 

 usually provides that the farmer shall 

 devote a certain area of suitable land 

 to the production of the seed crop. He 

 further agrees to properly prepare the 

 land, plant it with seed acceptable to 

 the seedsman, and cultivate, harvest, 

 care for, and clean the crop in such a 

 way as to secure the largest re- 

 turn of seed fit for seedsmen's 

 use that can be obtained through good 

 farm practices and the use of ordinary 

 farm machinery, as well as to deliver 

 the entire resulting seed product to the 

 contracting seedsman on or before a 

 certain date. 



The seedsman, on his part, agrees to 

 furnish the seed needed for planting 

 the area specified and to pay an agreed 

 price per pound or bushel for all the 

 seed in excess of the amount furnished 

 for planting which the farmer is able 

 to produce on that area and to deliver 

 in such condition that it is suitable 

 or without an unreasonable amount of
