Cleaned Seed 
The seed we sell our trade is not as it comes from the grower. It is cleaned and 
graded either by ourselves or direct through our buying connections. Seed cleaning 
and grading requires experience and equipment. Often it is necessary to run seed 
over different kinds of .cleaners to get the desired results. Careful adjustments and 
expert operation are needed to do the best work. This applies also to grading for 
not all grades are of equal quality. The size and weight of berries as w^ell as color 
enter into making grades. Our aim in cleaning or in buying cleaned seed is always 
to give the customer the greatest possible seed value at the price he wants to pay. 
TESTED 
QUALITY 
Mr. L. C. 
Jorgenson is 
our analyst 
and has had 
twenty years of 
experience. He 
secured his training 
through U. S. Gov¬ 
ernment at Washing¬ 
ton, D. C. 
The test tags attached to 
shipments of seed show the re¬ 
sults of the purity and germi¬ 
nation tests of a composite 
sample of the lot of seed from 
which shipment is made. This 
sample is obtained by taking 
small quantities of seed from 
different portions of the lot. 
These are mixed thoroughly so 
as to make the composite 
sample as representative as 
possible of the entire lot of 
seed. A portion of this sample 
is taken to make the purity 
and germination test. That is 
the general method of testing 
seed and is followed by our¬ 
selves. In most cases the 
analysis is our owm but oc¬ 
casionally we use the analysis 
furnished by the party selling 
us the seed. It is our aim 
to attach such test tags to all 
shipments made. Sometimes a 
tag will be missed or lost from 
the shipment but in such case 
a test tag may be had upon 
request. Individual bags may 
vary from the lot test.
