MUST SELL CLEAN SEED

The State Department of Agriculture
upon recommendation of G. B. Allison,
| Deputy Seed Inspector. filed complaint
in the Canyon County Courts against
Mr. $. ]. Livesay of Caldwell, for ex-
posing for sale seed Of alfalfa which
did not conform to the pure seed re-
quirements of the state law.
Commenting on the case, B. F. Shee-
han. State Seed Commissioner. said.
This is a case of farmer offering
seed for seeding purposes which did
not conform to the regulations of our
pure seed law. The seed was sold thru
the Caldwell Sales Company. had neS~-r
been tested and upon examination was
found to contain some $40 dodder, seeds
10 every pound OF alfalfa
Farmers selling seed alfalfa OF the
clovers to another farmer are required
by law to conform to the same regula-
tions as any seed dealer in town. any
seed offered must be tested and con-
form to the minimum requirements OF
our law.
This department is going to enforcs
these regulations in every section of the
state. We have a law against the sale
of low grade seed and this law IS going
to be respected.
To-day there is much low grade seed
in the hands Of the producer. which il
allowed to be sold and seeded in tho
state viii only mean more trouble for
our small seed growers another year.
If Idaho growers expect to compete
with the small seeds of other states,
they must necessarily raise a high
quality seed. To do this means plant

"The most serious pest is the dodder.
Ninety percent of all samples condem-
ned this season have been condemned
on account of the presence Of this OBJ
noxious weed. Other weeds causing
considerable concern are buckhorn,
poverty weed, hoary cress and mustard
Objectionable weeds once introduced
on a farm will be a continual menace.
To know the quality of any lot Of seed
is extremely important
Labelling should be complete. Deal
ers and farmers who are selling seed
for planting are required to mark in
a plain and indelible manner; (a)
