In order to clear the minds of farmers on this point Purdue University has issued the details of experiments carried ou on the Purdue farm and at other points in the state, it is the conclusion of Purdue authorities that seed imported from Italy and other southern European points is unsuited to Indiana. Seed grown iu northern France and other north central and northern European points has given sttisfactory results. It is our! understanding that some of this northern European seed is now- be- ■ ing offered for sale. Seed from Can- ' ada is also being offered for sale and is suited for Indiana. Where farmers have the assurance of tire dealers ■ on this point, they should not hesi- ' kSWWVWWWWVWWWWWM Ashbaucher’s ‘!: FURNACES i ; LIGHTNING RODS SPOUTING 1 ;: SLATE ROOFING ! *;; Phone 765 or 739 ; i , IMMMMMIWWWIIWWWI

fate in purchasing and using this seed. "It is fair to state that reputable, interested seed dealers are as anxious i for farmers to secure a satisfactory ; stand ot clovas as are any other In-! , dividuals or organisations in any community. Farmers should consider with these people the seeds which will best meet their needs. “Very truly yours, “G. I.

The remaining 6.486.150 tons of fuel produced in the state were shipped outside of Indiana for consumption, it was declared. Dally is of the opinion that mining in Indiana at the present time is in the midst of a slump. This conclusion is borne out by the fact that of eleven of the largest mines in the state were closed during th® last year. While these mines were closed only . one mine of a size eqtyil to that of , the shafts which has suspended operations was opened. Dally declares that the coal mined in Indiana is the equal of any mined in the central western field and expressed | his belief that as soon as the people 1 'of the state become acquainted with 1 , Uiis'fact that there wquld be a marked ( resumption of mining activities in In- 1 dianu. 1 o j High Prices Being Paid At Farm Sales This Year It is pleasing to note that the sales of farm stocks this year is exceedingly good, perhaps better than £o rfivc or six years. A number of goo dones have | been reported. One that proved extra pleasing, because of wide advertising given it. was the Claude Harvey sale •'on Feb. 2. at his farm a mile north of J Monroe. The total was over $5,000. *(’ows averaged $lO9 per head, brood * sows $56.50; horses sold well and machinery brought good prices. It indicates a better condition among the farmers.
