County Agent Urges All Farmers To Buy Native Clover Seed According to information which has been sent from Purdue Adams county farmers should not fail to examine the tag on all bags of dove, seed purchased by them, making sure the seed doos not coine from Europe. Foreign clover seed beside native seed on experimental plots at Purdue have shown it to be very uncertain, strips of Italian varities being entirely winter killed. Seed from northern Europe has proven better, although .not equal to native seed, but since much seed is shipped from southern Europe to northern Europe for export, there is no way of determining the real source. Seed from middlewestern, eastern or northern states should be demanded. Since the Indiana laws require that ea< li bag of clover seed sold carry a label showing the original source of the seed there is no excuse for any farmer purchasing this worthless

The demand for Ford Cars cr.d Trucks this Spring will, according to all indications, be far greater than last Spring. Winter buying has been increasing at a greater rate than ever before. Actual retail deliveries the past 60 days totaled 308,170 Ford Cars and Trucks, an increase of 1,961 a day over a year ago. Over 200,000 people have already ordered Ford products on our purchase plan, the majority of whom will take delivery in the Spring. .
