The Connecticut experiment station Is doing a great work in testing clover seed. It obtained fifty-one samples of the seed just ns it la sold by Connecti cut seed dealers. These samples were tested for weed seeds and also to see whut per cent of the clover seed would sprout. The result of the test shows j that only oue-slxth of the seed as sold was fit to use. Three samples were : adulterated with a worthless plant, and forty-one had more or less dodder, the most dangerous weed or parasite ; which can get Into the crop. i Few days pass without a complaint from some one who finds the dodder in his clover. Samples are often sent in showing tbe clover plants strangled by a JM-Ht which twines around them and sucks their life away. The cut shows a mild form of the affliction. Think of putting the seeds of this curse Into the ground when you seed your clover Yet that is Just what is being done when we buy ordinary clover s?d.

While lighter w.-J may give a greater mini K-r of plants, a greater proportion of them would die out or do poorly. In twenty t-ix out of fifty-one samples the seeds weighed less than the standard As for vitality, the im-rage of these lifty-onp Connecticut samples was MM per cent that is. the number out of a hundred strong enough to put out a sprout. One sample showed only IH.2 per cent of sumIh with any life to them. One sample was so poor that only 4S.1 per tent of the seed was clo ver, and only W per cent of that would sprout Three samples were evidently adulterated ttith black medic.
