Many pedigree grains are superior
among grains as pedigree stock is in.
live stock. It has the ability Of trans
hitting valuable qualities. These
may be yielding power, time of matur-
ity, disease resistance or some other
valuable quality. The jstockmen by
their registry associations have been
able to retain valuable blood lines.
Not SO with the pedigree grains. For
instance Minnesota 1853 wheat has
been in use some sixteen years and
millions OF bushels of 1t, grown, yet
it 10 hardsto find any of it today that
ist Of known purity.
Professor J. H. Shepperd, agricul-
turist of the North Dakota Experi-
ment Station, and W. R. Porter, su-
perintendent Of the North Dakota
Demonstration Farms, have worked
ont a system that will do for grains
what the registry associations have
done for the breeds OF live stock.
North Dakota has twentyfour DEM
onstration farms Of twenty acres, i've
substations of 100 acres, in. addition to
the main experiment station Of 1000
acres. On these pedigree seed Is
sown.. A good deal OF care is taken
to keep it pure. This seed, after it
has been thoroughly cleaned, is sack
ed and sealed with the Experiment
Station seal.
This ID one Of the biggest steps
that has been worked out In thesrais-
Ing OF pedigreeseed Il means that
any other state that adopts this sys-

For w~indbreaks and forest planting
at the Langdon IN. d. substation the
grey or white willow and

Almost every grey willow and green
ash thus far planted are now in a
