OF CLOVER SEED
ARE NOW MADE

In spite of the fact that the sup
ply of domestic red clover seed is
very short and heavy importations OF
foreign grown seed are being made,
MARYLAND farmers are advised to use
only domestic seed or substitute some
other legume or grass, because I'M
ported red clover seed will not give
satisfactory results in this section, ac-
cording to Forrest S. Holmes, In
charge of the seed laboratory at Col
lege Park.
Mr.. Holmes says that imported red
clover seed can be distinguished from
domestic seed by the colored fractions
of the imported seed. The colors US
ed for staining imported seed are vio-
let, green, orange-red, purple-red, and
red. Green will be seen most general
ly, approximately one per cent OF the
seed being so stained. When stained
is seen in a lot of seed the entire bulk
is imported seed, not just the stained
seeds.
It is pointed out that while import
ed red clover seed may be designated
as adapted" or adaptable" by those
offering it for sale, no one should be
misled by the use of such term. Ex-
tensive tests have shown conclusively
that imported red clover seed will not
produce satisfactory crops in this
section. 1t should not be planted, for
it not only will give smaller yields
than homegrown seed but it will con-
taminate our native strains by intro
ducing inferior characters of the i'm
ported seed.
At the present time imported red
clover seed costs only slightly more
than half as much as selected domestic
red clover seed. With such a differ
ence in price, there will be great
temptation to buy the cheaper, i'm
ported seed. Mr.. Holmes warns that
anyone who is inclined to buy import
ed seed should remember that the re-
sulting crop will not be satisfactory
and that such seed is actually the
most expensive now on the market in
spite Of it's low price.
Home grown red clover seed is a
bove average in plant producing ca
pacity but there is wide variation
in this respect among different lots
of seed, according to Mr.. Holmes.
Determination of the plant producing
capacity of individual loot will show
that many of them can be used at
rates considerably below average
without any risk Of an unsatisfactory
crop because of insufficient seed be-
ing planted. With the price of home
grown seed as high as it is now, it
will pay to know the plant producing
capacity and to use no more seed than
is needed.
Information regarding the plant
capacity Of lots of seed, and
other characteristics affecting their
planting value, can be had by send
ing a representative sample to the
Seed Laboratory, at the University Of
College Park, in care of
Mr.. Holmes.
