Jighteen Fields Inspecied-- It is not any child's play growing lover seed that will measure up to he requirements as may be judged from the fact that there were 18 fields inspected while growing, and only four of those were passed as being clean enough to warrant further inspection. From these fields. about 50 bushels of certified seed was obtained, which will bring a price possibly seven or eight dellars per bushel higher than - the average price of good red clover seed, which is worth today on the market about $17 or $18 per bushel. Thus a farmer who can ra'se four or five bushels per acre of certified red clover seed on his fields can count on a hand- some return for his work.

Had Good Crops-- A year ago, for some reason, pos- ibly a scarcity of buhble bees, or other insects capable of fertilizing the flowers. Dryden district had no red clover seed at all, the entire fields be- ing quite barren of seed. This season, however, seems to have been more favorable as all the growers had good crops, as well as the four whose fields graded as certified. The clover grew three feet tall and yielded a very fair crop of seed: After the field is passed as being clean enough to warrant further in- spection, the test is by no means com- pleted, as the seed has to pass rigid tests after threshing before being pro- nounced perfect. It is expected that 50 bushels grown near Dryden all be snapped up, by seedmen, as both Canadian and United States seed- houses are always on the lookout for just such opportunities as this to pur- chase anything extra good in the line of seeds. Iir Heise says that much credit for the progress made in seed growing in the vicinity of Dryden is due to the work and enterprise of J. S. Corner, . who is now secretary of the associa- tion, as well as to M. F. Cook, agri- cultural representative for the Kenora distriet, who has given much time and attention to this work. i Wiki A high grade Mattress, & 90 Coil Spring.
