First Seed Bulletin
Issued Commissioner

Bismarck, Feb. 22.-The first seed
and feed bulletin recommended By the
conference attended by members of
the North Dakota seed stock commit
tee, the commissioner of agriculture
and labor, and members of the rail-
way commission was issued today by
Commissioner of Agriculture and La
Dor Hagan. The bulletin, which he cir
ulated generally throughout the state
to county commissioners, farmers and
elevators, contains a list Of sources
where feed and seed can be purchased.
It also lists the elevators where the
grain is to be had, the railroad sta
ton and the amount which can be
purchased. It is designed to benefit
the farmers of the state in locating
seed and feed for planting the spring
crop.
The bulletin will be issued at regu-
lar intervals from now on until the
end of the planting season.

HOW TO SELL SEED GRAIN

These who know they have seed of
any variety that is fit for sowing
purposes whether they are able to
clean it or not, should put themselves
in touch with those who want to buy.
Do this at the earliest opportunity.
The way is as follows: If you have
grain of any sort as wheat, barley,
oats, flax, corn, millet, etc., in small
quantities less than carload lots, you
should send one-half pound samples
to the pure seed laboratory immedi-
ately. We will give you report as
to its seed quality. If found of a
quality fit for seed purposes, we will
place your name and address on a
state seed list and send that seed
list to all citizens who wish to buy.
How many bushels haye you?
Under the present emergency con-
ditions, those who have a surplus Of
seed ought, as a patriotic duty, to let
your neighbors know that you are
able to provide it. The state seed
lists are prepared to help. We do
not buy. We do not sell. We help.
The national law on sale of seed
does not prevent you from making
bargain with your neghbor or any
other citizen for such prices as ne is
willing to pay for any seed which is
in your possession.
Farmers or elevator managers who
have grain fit for seed in quantities of
car load lots should submit to the
state commissioner of agriculture at
Bismarck. He wishes to get in touch
with sufficient volume of grain to fur
nish the county commissioners operat-
ing under the county bonding law.
Those residing in counties which
are bonded should not fail to submit
samples to him, that your county and
nearby counties may have the bene-
fit of buying local grown seed at the
lowest shipping rate, etc.
Samples sent to the commissioner
of agriculture, Bismarck, should
weigh approximately one pound and
be fair representation of the grain
as you are liable to sell it'll. L.
Bolley,- State Seed Commissioner.

General Crowder's office today, that
we have as much right to say to a

You must work in foundry to boost
the supply of ammunition. as we
have to draft a man for the army
That is just what we want to do
The places OF thousands Of men now
deferred could be easily taken by wo-

Due to the QUESTIONABLE system
and the giant card occupational index
of every draft registrant, General
Crowder would be able to put the
plan into Immediate execution the
moment the PRECEDENT and the War
Department gave their approval
Any shortage OF war workers could
be supplied Immediately. The men
would not be put on a Government

aries equal as nearly as possible with
those they are now earning.
