GRASS SEED.


The most serious obstacle to the more
general seeding of our prairies with the
tame grasses has been the great cost of
seed. Tuis objection farmers always
urge. and generally 1t is a valid one. But
the present season furnishes no such ex~
cuse. seed from first hands being unusual
~ cheap. The College farm has just re-
ceived n choice lot of orchard grass and
kentucky biue>erass seed, the former at
one dollar and tn. latter at ninety cents
per bushel.
