OPA REGULATION MPR-471 
We hope this digest of OPA Regulation MPR-471 will be of service 
to our Farm Seed Dealers. 
At a time when our Country and our Allies are in great need of an 
abundance of Clovers and Alfalfas, it is most unfortunate that the 
combined production in Canada and the United States, of Alfalfa, 
Red Clover, Sweet Clover and Alsike is much below normal. 
Reserve stocks accumulated from the abundant production of 1941 
are now exhausted, having been needed to supplement 1942 short 
crop production, and for shipment to Allied Countries under Lend- 
Lease. 
1943 production appears to be short of normal seeding require- 
ments for the United States and rationing is already necessary 
on some items and some varieties. 
Not only because of shortages of supplies, but because of all the 
problems of labor and transportation, we urge, for your own best 
interest and as a real contribution to the War Effort, that you allow 
shipment of your Farm Seeds soon atter the first of the year, as soon 
as our stocks become processed. Farm Seed prices for 1944 are 
now established. If our salesman has not already seen 
you, he will do so shortly.
