Great Demand for Seed Corn.


The demand for seed corn has been so
great this year and the price SO high
that there will doubtless be more atten

resulted from the very wet fall OF 1911,
However, the later reports go TO show
that the seed generally was not as bad
us stated in the earlier reports, From
this fact II might be assumed that tho
demand for good seed will be less when
the seasons become more normal, but IL
is the result of observation that the
appreciation of good seed increases with
