The department believes that muoh

(e) Extended paintings and replant-
,ngs practically exhausted. the hold

(s) In some sections this year
crop has been destroyed by drouth or
early frosts. Farmers Of these SEQ
tions should now arrange to secure
seed from localities possessing eli
matte conditions similar to their own.

CROP this year next years crop may De
DESTROYED, and there should now oe
selected a supply Of locally adapted
seed for 1918 and u hold-over supply
