It is definitely a feed grain. Nevertheless a large quen- tity of this grain was sold last _\t‘?ll‘ as double rccleaned Peace River otiis. 1 would not accuse those who are engaged in this trade of being downright dishonest on a matter of this kind, but if any dealer is advertising this particular grain as dotililc rcclcancd oaia, and knows ,it, is going out, for seed, he is cer- ltainiy not helping the farmer to whom lie sells it or the agricul- tural production in this country. ‘About 1,.'l55 samples n! double re- cleaned Pcace River Oats were ex- nmined last. year at. the request of the Qucbcc Seed Board. Not one of these samples on examination would pass for Ne. 3 seed. The weed seed content averaged over 200 seeds per pound of oats. Some samples contained as high as .56 mustard seed per pound. Do the formers of this country want that kind of seed? No person can guarantee the variety. It may be a mixture of different varieties. The trade in such grain as seed is a species of black marketing and the producer who buys this class of grain for seed is being loaded up with difficulties. possibly in tho form of immediate inferiority in yield, and most certainly with a long-term problem of control in weeds. There should not be the slightest difficulty on the part of either producers or of dealers in securing seed oats or seed drain of any kind that is guaranteed through proper inspection to be exactly what it is represented to be, a specific grade of seed grain. Seed oats this year seem to be keeping fairly firm in price and should be available In subatantiax quantities. Present ndicatlons are that tim- othy will be in scarce supply and high in price, possibly from 26c to 28c for good seed. There has been a crop failure ln Ontario and the Maritimes. It seems rather strange that in a year when we had the highest hay production probably in our history that little provision was made on the part of the aver- age farmer to aeciire his own eup- ply of timothy or mixture. Clover apparently is in better G. Barbour . 5 20f 139 supply than timothy and the priee,_ D. MacDonald . in all probability, will range A. Cameron .... . around 6c less than in 1918. It ls O.

Wasted Clever leetl Thousands of pounds of good clover seed. the best that our farm- ers could secure anywhere, went m wagtg last year due to shortage of lebour end ieck of harvesting ‘equlment. Possibly we should add to these two factors a slight dose of indifference. Potatoes llllfll‘ Markets have been easier this last week or so on potetoesflfihere is some recession from the little flurry that took place e. couple of weeks ago. The Upper Canada market is somewhat indifferent and is being mpplied to a considerable extent front local areas with trucks. If we could get our winter back again it would belp out the ship- ments from Prince Edward Island to Upper Canadian points. It is interesting to note however. that while tablestock is off a bit the seed trade seems to be going along quite merrily. For instance last week about 80,000 bushels were shipped. To date 2,843,000 bushels of potatoes have been shipped from this Province. This is moic than it million bushels over that for the same period last year. Seed potatoes are moving quite freely to United States points. There arc some moving too to Canadian points; for instance. four citrloads went to Ontario last Week and four carloads to New Brunswick. There seems to be considerable de- mand for potatoes for March de- livery and it is anticipated that the demand for Canadian points will strengthen by April. If prices are fairly reasonable now. and better than your support price, I would sell some potatoes; that is, keep them moving to the market regularly. Feed the market in a normal, healthy way. This is always wise. At the same time do not. lct anyone fool you by extrava- gant stories of terribly depressed prices or magnificently remuner- ative prices. Watch The Market note that 1n 1MB at this date, II shipped 5.554 csrloads of potetol and et the same date this year, 4.991 csrioads.
