CALIFOENIA SEED CROPS. ;f 



With an automobile, a good driver, 

 plenty of time and in addition a view- 

 point that is disinterested, one can 

 make a decidedly interesting trip 

 through the seed-growing section of 

 central California. 



This is the time of year when all 

 seed growers are on the qui vive. 

 With some crops the answer has prac- 

 tically been obtained, while with others 

 there is still a question in regard to 

 the outcome. There is no doubt the 

 lack of rain has played havoc with 

 'Tops in general, although it is sur- 

 prising how some fields have weathered 

 the adverse conditions and are show- 

 ing up remarkably well. It is notice- 

 Jible, however, that all crops which ap- 

 pear good are planted on the heavier, 

 low grounds where the moisture can 

 '>G held close to the surface by culti- 

 vation. Crops growing on lighter and 

 'iiffher soils have suffered materially. 



We started on our trip from San 

 •lose, making a complete inspection of 

 '■'■ops in the Santa Clara valley, and 

 ^^^f9"nd conditions about as follows:
