DISTRIBUTION OF SEED.

partment Method.

WASHINGTON, February 5.-(SpeciaiJ
Secretary Morton has issued a circular,
IN which he states that a radical change
having been made by the Department
NJ Agriculture in the method Of pur-
chasing. handling, and sending out the
seeds. the distribution of which is by
law imposed upon him, comparison
OF the cost Of the present system with the
method heretofore in vogue is interesting
and instructive. Attention is called to
the fact that germinative seed only are
secured under the present system, and
also to the further fact that the same
amount of money secures now nearly 100
ner cent more seed than under the an
Gent method of buying in bulk and en-
Moving each year unskilled labor to put
the seed into packets and packages which
had TO be furnished and printed at the
department.

COMPARISONS OF RESULTS.

Comparing the distribution for 1894
under the old plan with that for the
present year under the new plan, 1t is
seen that:
In 1894. 1921. 1887 secured 9,5553lS packets
OF seed at cost per packet of SO.Ol35.
In 1897. $4,000 secured 2O.O66,6Ss packets
Of vegetable and flower seed at cost
per packet of sJ006S9. and In addition
hereto besides 292,925 packets quarts
OF field seeds at an average cost per
racket of SO0n29, which were never pur-
chased in such quantity before.
The new plan secures twice as much
seed for the money expended.
Other advantages of the new plan are:
Prompt and early delivery OF the seed
to the people.
The distribution Of the business among
a number of seed dealers in different
parts of the country, who compete with
each other as to excellence OF seed,
amount supplied. and price.
And the thorough scientific testing OF
ALL the seed before distribution, which
was never done before.
The only further Improvement that can
be commended with sincerity Is the total
abolition of the promiscuous and gratui-
tous distribution of seed by governmental
agencies

1t will be seen that for the four fiscal
years included in the table, an average
OF AZ per cent. of the total appropriation
was expended for seeds, and IS per cent.
for salaries Of packers, paper bags, etc.
The average number of packets distri-
buted each year, from 1891 TO 1894, was
1901 rs, and the average cost per package
was sO.O1SOS.
The table above shows that for the
current year 30 per cent. of the appro-
priation was expended for seeds ready
packed, and less than 10 per cent for sala-
