AUCTION OF
SEED DISPLAY
ISIMPROBABLE

There probably will be no auction
sale Of samples Of seed. now on ex-
hibit at the annual show OF the
North Dakota Improved Seed Grow
ers' association in the auditorium, it
was announced today.
Good seed is too valuable TO the
producer this year, and too scarce to
be thrown on the market, II. /.
Bolley, Fargo, secretary OF the assoc
citation, in charge OF the show, said.
while haven't taken the matter OF
an auction up with all the exhibitors,
those with whom have taken up the
matter are inclined to keep their
seed.
There may be a few samples for
sale when the show Is over, but OF
this I cannot be sure.
Show Smaller, But Better.
There are fewer samples Of seed
on exhibit at the show this year,
but the quality Of the exhibits is far
above that OF previous years, Mr..
Bolley said.
The corn and alfalfa exhibits are
especially good, with wheat and
potatoes q close second. The ex-
hibits occupy the balcony in the

show are the center Of interest aside
