test, as being unfair to the seed mer- 

 chants and growers, in that the merchants 

 and growers have no knowledge that the 

 samples so reported upon actually came 

 from them. 



It seems to the Seedsmen 's League but 

 fair that the agent obtaining the samples 

 should leave the merchant or grower a 

 portion of that identical sample under 

 governmental seal, as provided in the 

 case of testing milk, fertilizers, etc., 

 under the laws of the state of New York 

 and other states.

look bad, owing to drouth last fall. Farmers 

 say seed won't pay to let it lie for hay, so 

 they will plow ft over and sow com Instead. 

 It froze out badly, only alslke standing the 

 severe cold. If other sections have suffered as 

 we have, higher prices are certain before Octo- 

 ber. Indiana— Small counties— Crop not very 

 promising. Last year only half usual amount 

 was sown and greater part perished during dry 

 weather. Old clover will aU be put In corn. 

 Considerable seed In farmers' hands, but pros- 

 pect for next crop very poor, hardly any acre- 

 age. Prospect poor, due to alternate freezing 

 and thawing. Michigan— Large counties — Con- 

 siderable seed being sown here. Scarcely any 

 left from last year, as dry weather last fall 

 killed most of It. Farmers holding a great 

 deal, but refuse to sell. Expect large amount

to be sown this spring, as very little was saved 

 from last year's sowing. Illinois— Small coun- 

 ties—Farmers still holding for better prices. 

 All the clover in central Illinois sown before 

 the middle of March was killed by cold. Three- 

 fourths of the acreage was sown too early and 

 will have to be resown. This year there Is no 

 top to wheat, so It cannot afford usual protec- 

 tion to seed. Farmers buying to resow. Mis- 

 souri-Farmers have considerable seed, but qual- 

 ity not very good.
