The pending agricultural bill will not be weakened by the elimination of the old time provision for free seeds
 People seriously interested in farming and garden ing are not looking to the for packages of seeds and is doubtful if any candidate for his election his activity in sending these to his constituents.

 The convincing argument against the free seed graft is its expense. During the present admnistra ton the cost to the government has been than million dollars and this does not include the of D. stal employees and other expenses The experi- nent getting along seeds is worth try ing. The million dollars wasted in this kind of pork" be profitably employed in legitimate government work
