Has a Bill for Pure Seed.

Commissioner Fred H. Phillips OF
the Department of Agriculture says
he is preparing bill to be presented
to the Arkansas General Assembly
requiring that nothing but pure seed
be sold in Arkansas. This bill will
be similar to the acts in force in
many other states, and aims to cor
rect the evil practiced by many deaf
ers of shipping to this state great
~ Entities of garden,-farm and flower
seed containing MANY noxious weed
seeds and cracked grains, and in
many cases having but small per
cent over half of terminating seed.
If the bill as proposed becomes a
law, dealers in seeds will have to GER
tify to the agricultural department
that their seed is pure, and where
the seed does not come up TO the re-
quired standard the dealers certify
ing their seed to be pure will be
prosecuted.

be made that 100000 be appropriated
by the state for the maintenance ~
the institution for the next two years.
AS there has been no hospital build
ing at the sanatorium, the necessity
for one makes it necessary that sucn
a building be erected in order to
care for the increasing number Of
patients and growing demands of the
institution.
