PURE SEED LAWS NOW
Kansas Seedmen And Board Of Agri
culture Join Hands

The sale of inferior agricultural
seeds will be impossible in Kansas If
q state pure seed law-modeled on
the pure food laws-is passed by the
next legislature.
Such law will be formulated at
q conference in the near future be-
tween a committee Of three repre-
senting Kansas seedmen and ]. G..
Mohler, secretary Of the State Board
Of Agriculture, DR.. william M. Jar
dine, president and +. d. Farrell, d.
rec OF experimental stations, Of the
Kansas State Agricultural College.
Dumping Of poor seeds into this
state has been common in the past"
said Secretary Moher. "Many states
have passed pure seed laws and there
is no reason why Kansas should not"
II samples tested show that the
seed has beeen falsely labeled, the
board may institute court proceed
ings, after the seed company has been
given opportunity for hearing. Seeds
sold by the grower on his own prem
ises are exempted under the law as
well as seeds sold to merchants to
be recleaned before sale for seed pur-

The government probe into the ma
terial shortage which IL holding mp q
number Of federal aid road contracts
throughout the state, Is now under
way, according to officials who have
recently been investigating the situa-
ton here relative to the contract on
the Golden Belt highway In this
county. Engineer Taylor of the d.
vision bureau Of Omaha spent a day
here and went over the situation with
Carl Nicolay, resident engineer. Re-
suits Of his investigation were wired
direct to Washington, and Mr.. Tay-
lor came to Abilene from Junction
City where he conducted a similar in
Quiry.
Shippers cite "car shortage" as
reasons for the delay, contractors
say. Whatever the cause 1t, Engineer
Taylor said, the government probe
will get at the facts and undoubtedly
will effect some remedy.
Contractors on the Golden Belt
highway report they have completed
the first lap and are ready to start on
the second but they have been unable
to obtain cement and chat In the re
Quired quantities to keep the work
