To the Editor of the Grey Review : During the past nine years, samples of those yarieties of grain which have succeeded best on the Experimental Farm bhave been distributed on applicâ€" ation in 3â€"lb. bags to farmers in all parts of the Dominion, free through the mail. The object in view in this disâ€" tribution has been to add to the proâ€" ductiveness and improve the quality of these importart agricuitaral products throughout the country by placing within reach of every farmer pure seed of the most vigorous and productive sorts. This work has met with much appreciation and alconsiderable deyree of success. Instructions have been given by the Hon Minister of Agriculture to make a similar distribution this season. QOwing to the very large number of applica=â€" tions now received it is not practicable to send more than one sample to each applicant, but with this limitation it is hoped that the stock available will be sufficient to permit of every tarmer who so desires sharing in the benefits of this useful branch of the work of the Experimental Farms. The distribution now in progress consists of some of the most promising sort of Oats, Barley, Spring Wheat, Pease, Field Corn and Potatoes. Reâ€" quests for samples may be sent to the Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, at any time before the 1st of March, but after that date the lists will be closed so that the applications then on hand may be filled before seeding beâ€" fore seeding begins. All communicaâ€" tions can be sent tree of postage. â€"It is desirable that each applicant should name the variety which he desires to test, also one cr two alternative sorts in case the stock of the sort chosen shculd be exhausted, while no promise can be made that the yariety asked for will be sent, the wishes of correspondents will be attended to as far as practicable. The samples of grain will be sent early but potaioes cannot be distributed until the danger of injury in traneit by frest is over. * Mcluris,â€"Leith,â€"That W.
