land. Great Britain's growers, who
once looked to the European seed
market to answer most of their
needs, faced a serious shortage.
Seed requirements had increased in
accordance with so per cent acre
age increase, while the accepted
sources of supply diminished. Rus
STA suffered dangerous domestic
seed source loss when Germany in
vaded the Ukraine. And other areas
were in similar difficulty.
AS natural result, production of
almost the entire load of vegetable
seed for world needs was assumed
by U. S. seedsmen.
What those growers accomplished
is history, and the prospect for 1914
is for a still further increase in acre
age and in yield.
The 1943 vegetable seed harvest
was the largest in United States an
mails, latest figures showing produc-
ton of 1855 million pounds. This is
81 per cent increase over the three
year (1939-4D pre-Pearl Harbor
average of 1856 million pounds.
Very few American farmers grow
vegetable seeds as their only cash
crop. However, many give vegeta-
BILE seeds first place, particularly in
the Pacific coast states. A govern
ment survey has shown that pro-
duction of 20 out of 48 seeds topped
the 1912 record harvest for total
increase of 81 million pounds over
the 1874 million pounds harvested
last year.
Beans, peas and corn accounted
for 331 million pounds of seed in
1913, 6 per cent more than the 1912
production of 313 million pounds.
The figure for small or light seeds,
such as beet, carrot and cucumber,
totaled about 24.1 million pounds last
year, is per cent more than the 1912
crop of 20.8 million pounds. The har-
vest on these small seeds fell below
expectations due to a smaller yield
per acre for q of the seeds and a
total harvested acreage 16 per cent
less than was intended.
Yields Multiplied.
Phenomenal increases in acreage
yields on some seed were recorded.
Brussels sprouts, with an increase
of 371 per cent, led the list. Other
large increases were 228 per cent
for okra, 225 per cent for mustard,
1874 per cent for kale, and 172 per
cent for satisfy.
Total crop production for 1913 ex-
ceeded 1912 by ~ times for brussels
sprouts, $40 per cent for mustard,
1853 per cent for dill, 343 per cent
for mangelwurzel, 213 per cent for
okra, 202 per cent for kale, 1876 per
cent for looseleaf lettuce, 181 per
cent for Chinese cabbage, 178 per
cent for chicory, 1855 per cent for
carrot, 1853 per cent for onion, and
$50 per cent for leek seed. Greatest
decline in total production probably
will be recorded for broccoli, cab
bage, romaine lettuce, pepper, kohl
rabi and parsnip seed.
Larger acreages Of most kinds of
vegetable seed, 80 out of 48, helped
offset decreased yield per acre of a
majority of the crops. Biggest re-
auctions in acre yield were reported
for cabbage, 40 per cent less than
1912; broccoli, Sc per cent; pepper,
70 per cent; parsnip, 70 per cent;
kohlrabi, pumpkin, chicory and eau
lifower, each rs per cent less.

Supply of Grass and Clover Seed Is Extremely Low

If you had visited a rehearsal Of

think you'd stumbled onto bunch
of small boys playing cops and rob-
bers. ''Take that-bang! bangi-

grown man saying it. It's all be-
cause of the shortage of blank bull
lets and the lack of a reasonable
facsimile. There are enough car
tridges for performances, but not for
rehearsals.

JOHN SPENCER GOES To
f. NEW YORK OFFICE

John A. Spencer, son of Mrs.
Maude A. Spencer of 400 Third
avenue, has become sales manager
of the General Electric Credit or
poration, with headquarters in New
York City. Formerly he was with
the Chicago office of General Elec-
tricc company. Although he had
previously made rapid advancement
with General Electric, the last is
considered unusual.
During high school days in Lau-
rel he was active editor-at times
writer and solicitor also-of a school
publication. Lately in addition to
his regular work, he has edited a
magazine circulating among GE en-
ployees, and in that publication,
"Service News Letter." the new edi-
tor, one Sanborn, in the April edi-
ton carries Spencer's picture and
the following comment:
"John A. Spencer of Industrial
division, Chicago office, in leaving
Chicago to become sales manager of
the General Electric corporation in
its New York City headquarters of
flee about May 1.
"When the Service News Letter
operating committee was organized,
the responsibility for editing and
publishing SNL was entrusted to
Jack Spencer. With the first issue
in July 1912, and ever since, the
wisdom of the selection has been
apparent. The committee, the re-
porters, and all the readers of Ser
vice News Letter will cordially wish
success and happiness to Jack in
his new field"

Ask Red Bridge Road
To River Remain Open
For Use Of Fishermen

Fishermen at Park City, Still
water county, want the road kept
open to the site of the old red
bridge, they declared this week in
a resolution addressed to Yellow
stone county commissioners. Alex
Fox, who was here Wednesday, said
the road leads to one of the best
fishing holes on the Yellowstone. .
Signed by Paul w. Roberts, pres
ident of the Park City Rod and
Gun club, and H. D. Tompkins, sec
rotary, the resolution said:
"Whereas it has come to u at
tention that it is proposed that the
Red Bridge road be closed and
abandoned in order to prevent tres
passing; and whereas this road is
frequently used by fishermen of
this vicinity to reach the Yellow
stone river; and Furthermore since
gas consumption is strictly limited,
necessitating fishing in water close
to home;
Therefore, be it resolved by the
Park City Rod and Gun club that
we respectfully petition the county
commissioners of Yellowstone coun-
ty that the Red Bridge road remain
open or at least that passage be
assured to sportsmen."
