IMPORTANCE OF
SEED BREEDING
Wonderful Little Storehouses OF
Energy, Beauty and Utility
Bred to Produce Better
Quality of Grain.

One of the most important things
which the division of agriculture of
the Minnesota experiment station has
done for the benefit of the farmers is
the breeding of pedigreed seeds.
1t has been known for a long time
that animals could be bred for eff
cheney along certain desired lines. but
the knowledge Is of comparatively re-
cent date that seeds--those wonder
ful storehouses of energy. beauty and
utility-could be similarly bred. and
thus induced to produce a greater
amount or better quality or both of
grain. That this is pre-eminently
true. however, has been ably demon
strated by the agricultural division,
which has produced several varieties
Of improved grains. including corn.
barley. oats. fax and wheat. which are
much more prolific than the grains
commonly grown and which have. i'm
their increased yield. netted the
farmers OF the state many thousands
of dollars. These seeds may be oh.
tanned from the station or from co.
operating seed growers. at reasonable
prices and with each purchase a Ger.
tificate of pedigree and purity of seed
Is issued to the purchaser.
Prof. Andrew Boss, chief OF this
division, states that something over
$1,000 bushels of pedigreed seeds
have been distributed at first hand to
3.24S cooperating seed growers and
that these men have In turn supplied
so many farmers that It is estimated
that from one-fourth to onethird of
the grain growing area OF Minnesota
is now seeded annually to imprsved
seeds developed at the experiment
station.
