Some Retain Vitality for Years.
Corvallis, Ore., Feb. By using the
best of vegetable seed stocks left over
from last season a good deal can be done
to overcome the present seed shortage.
The O. A C., offers the following sug­
gestions :
Beets, rat> oage, cauliflower, rutabagas,
turnip* r\nd related plants may grow
wen -ar e0 ¡J four or five years old.
Spi*.r cil do^g Dot give so good results in
second or third years. Tomatoes,

for three years; squash and pumpkins,
live to eight; beans and sweet corn three,
peas and lettuce, three.
Onions, parsley, carrot and parsnip
seed usually should be fresh, although
two-year old seed sometimes gives good
satisfaction. Onions and parsnips will
not usually germinate more than 50 to
tjO per cent the second year. All of the
shortlived left over seed should be test­
ed for germination.
The amount of seed of various kinds
required to plant a hundred-foot row
are given in “The Home Vegetable
Garden,” No. 287, prepared by Professor
Bouquet. Copies may be had on re­
quest to O. A. C.. Corvallis.
