THE SEED DISTRIBUTION.
Government Competition Disastrous
to Private Enterprises and De
structiyc or Seed improvements.

Practical Farmer.
The failure of ex-Prcsidcnt Clcvc-
land to sign the agricultural apprOpri-
alton bill in the closing hours Of the
last Congress, brings before the new
Congress the FREQ seed question, as
the item for this annual seed distribu
tiOn was contained in that bill In the
bill, which failed to become a law. the
item for free seeds was in more OBJ
jectionable form than any preceding
provision of this kind, showing the
steady growth Of this evil. Should the
distri button bo carried on and extend
cd during the next few years as it has
been during the preceding three or
four years, it is not difficult to sec the
total obliteration Of the legitimate
seed trade OF the country. At first
thought, the average farmer who sees
the prospects of free seeds supplied on
de nand by his member OF Congress,
and in sufficient quantities for his
,, needs, may not look at it as much Of
an evil: 10 fact, may regard it as rather
OF an advantage. But we are con-
vinccd that tho sober second thought
Of tho intelligent farmer, will be
against the whole system, and espe-
cially SO If the ciIoct is to be tho elm
| ination Of secdsmen az o factor in the
supplying Of seeds. And for this rea-
son No observing farmer who has
watched tho development Of the seed
trade during the last twenty-five or
more years, and it's effect upon the i'm
provement OF varieties Of grains aud
vegetables, can but admit that the
seedman, alive to tho necessities o
his position, and the keen and increas
ing competition of his business asso
ciates, has been most pot Mt factor
tho main factor, in the Introduction o
, new varieties and tho improvement o
the old. This process OF selection

inherent in all citizens SO that the

said, SO often with lips confessed, with
the tongue asserted and maintained,
shall at last be and become q vital
forcc, u living presence, ii fact accom-
pllshcd In the government OF tho Re
public. This will give to our past its
full meaning, to the future hope vet
more abounding, and for the present it
would place fixed star in the galaxy
OF progress, visible in all the latitudes
OF liberty throughout the world.
