GARDEN SEED MAY
Be PASSED OUT
AGAIN THIS YEAR
Time-Honored Graft Rein
statement Sought by Of
flee Seekers.
By ROBERT TALLEY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 29.-Free gar
den seed. the ime-honored graft of
Congressman seeking reelection, may
be distributed again this spring, after
all.
Although Congress knocked out this
ancient practice at its last session and
no money is now provided for seeds,
an attempt is to be made soon to add
a $3.50, 900 amendment to the new ap-
preparation bill of the Department Of
Agriculture. While the general APP
preparation viii not become effective
until July l. hurry-up effort will be
made to have the 100000 for free
seeds made available Immediately.
The big seed companies, from which
the Government purchases it's sup
plies, are anticipating the amendment
and are prepared to begin deliveries at
once if the move is successful.
Objection was raised on a point of
order when an attempt was made last
session TO add a free seed amendment
to the appropriation bill for this year.
For this reason, there has recently
been introduced and reported to the
House a special act which would au-
thorize the addition Of such amend
ment If Congress desires it.
For many years Congressman have
distributed free seeds broadcast to
further their chances for reelection,
giving the incumbent an advantage
over the candidate not already in Of
fee Their scant results in food pro-
duction have been far overshadowed
Ky the political motive. 1t would be
interesting to learn how many of the
seeds were ever actually planted.
although burden of nearly $1,000 a
day has heen shouIdered on the tax
payers FOR years.
Last year the cost of postage alone
for mailing out these seeds was
S106.000 There was spent for
vegetable seeds s1o9,45357 and for
flower seeds s16,101.90. They were
purchased from thirty-seven different
seed companies

CHICAGO, Feb. 29.-Grains were
again irregular at the opening of the
Board of Trade today
Little interest was displayed in
wheat at the outset Unconfrmed
rumors of an impending increase in
tariff duties, strengthening features
In Thursdays close, continued to cir
culate about the pit. 1t was appar-
ent, however, that traders had be-
come tired OF anticipating such action
and were inclined TO await something
more definite.
Corn opened fractionally lower to
fractionally higher May lost u on
reports Of an increased movement and
profit-taking. The general belief was
that long corn thrown on the market
Thursday would have 10 be digested
before any new activity develops. Sep.
temher showed an eighth advance. due
to poor prospects for this delivery.
Although a good cash demand ex-
listed for oats, this market followed
corn and opened unchanged to lower.

CHICAGO Feb 29.-Traders seem to have
deserted the wheat market for corn great
many hold that the market has weathered
its worst trouble and that spring crop con-
corn will more than Offset any end-seRson

The Northwestern condition showed i'm
provement due to \ decreased spring wheat

The feeling grows that the wheat market
is over-soId because OF spread sales against
purchases in Winnipeg and against purchases
of corn.
Before Thursdays decline in corn sat IN
